This versatile scanner should easily meet the needs of nonprofessional scanning enthusiasts with its high quality and affordable price tag. Optical scanning resolutions of 300 dpi (photo) and 2,400 dpi (filmstrips and slides) combine with 36-bit color depth for exceptionally accurate, bright, and clear prints. The high bit depth results in precise color tones, allowing for superfine adjustments in color quality, while the high resolution keeps your images looking crisp with clean edges and rich detail.
The S20xi is simple to operate and can easily handle 35mm slides, filmstrips, negatives, and photographic prints. Maximum scanning size is 5 by 7 inches with up to 12 bits per color, linear internal resolution. Setup is a snap with plug-and-play installation provided via a USB interface. Scanning time is around one minute per frame or image, while the included software bundle lets you smooth, enhance, and otherwise maximize the quality of the originals. The S20xi also comes backed with a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
The HP Photosmart S20xi photo scanner is a film/photo scanner that provides high-quality scanned images from all 35 mm film formats; positive and negative strips, mounted 35 mm film and photographs up to 5 x 7 inches.
