      Verdict: Considering the wealth of features on board, £202 seems a paltry sum to pay for the HP ScanJet G4050. It's about half the price of the Epson Perfection V700, yet the HP certainly isn't outclassed on general performance and results. If you have a ...

      HP Scanjet G4050: Scanjet G4050

      By Neil Bennett

      Review summary: We've seen some innovative scanner launches recently: first Epson's Perfection V700 and v750 with two lenses and now HP's six-colour scanning Scanjet G4050.
