Product Description
Scanning multiple pages is a breeze with the HP ScanJet 6250C Professional Series Color Scanner with its integrated automatic document feeder.The HP ScanJet 6250C series offers the same functionality of the HP ScanJet 6200C series, plus an integrated automatic document feeder. Busy professionals like you told that automatic document feeders save precious time. And they stressed the importance of getting the document feeder at the time of the scanner purchase.
Amazon.com Review
Hewlett-Packard combines its Intelligent Scanning Technology with an automatic document feeder, a 35mm slide adapter, and software for easy faxing, LAN networking, and color copying. The result is a powerful, professional-quality scanner that complements any small office or home office.
To set up the ScanJet, we attached the document feeder and cable to the scanner, attached the USB cable to our PC, and loaded the CD-ROM. An HP setup wizard guided us through the lengthy process, automatically installing several applications.
In our tests, we placed a photograph on the scanner bed and performed a preview scan using the PrecisionScan Pro software. However, we could find no command to perform a final scan, so we ran the ScanJet Coach (part of online Help) to guide us through the process. The ScanJet Coach is a superbly designed interactive tutor that not only tells you what to do but also demonstrates how to do it, using your own work for input and generating usable output.
We specified 600 dpi True Color for scanning our color photograph, and the HP software displayed a message telling us that a 150-dpi scan would look just as good, consume less space, and process faster. The 600-dpi scan took 89 seconds, and the 150-dpi scan took 12 seconds. The scans were beautifully sharp, clear, and true to the original. And the 150 dpi scan did, in fact, look as good as the 600 dpi on our high-resolution monitor.
To scan text, we started Microsoft Word, chose Acquire Text from its File menu, and selected the option to use the document feeder. A three-page scan took two minutes. The results were good but not excellent. The optical character recognition (OCR) software had difficulty recognizing blocks of text of differing width on the same page. There were also errors when scanning the same original again. For example, the ScanJet 6250Cxi sometimes mistook the number 1 for the letter I, though not every time.
The entire scanning process seemed cumbersome at first, and the scanner's control software took some getting used to. However, this professional scanning system is designed for power and flexibility, requiring only moderate sacrifices of time and effort from the novice. --Mike Brown
Pros:
- Drag-and-drop scans to other applications
- Document feeder for scanning long text documents
- Excellent online help
Cons:
- Long learning curve
- Large and bulky with the document feeder attached

Something Missing "Like Quality".......2000-06-10
When I first bought this scanner, I thought it was one of the best for the money. The scans were fairly quick till you scanned at 300 dpi and more. It was easy to install, and the software was based for an intermediate user. A few bells and whisiles. But four months after using the scanner, It started to slow down, and eventually went from one scan every 40 sec. to one scan every 15 minutes. HP was no help, they led me to correct the problem that did nothing but cause conflicts and lock-ups. Not to mention there are no drivers to be found for the 6200 series scanners. So just please be careful. I suggest you don't buy this scanner at all.
Great scanner for the digital enthusiast.......2000-01-09
I purchased the 6250Cxi as a backup scanner for the Agfa DuoScan I currently own. Upon opening the package, I was impressed with the software and components included. SCSI setup was a breeze, and I recommend having a very good SCSI adapter (I have an Adaptec 2640UI ~$299) if you want to use this scanner to the best of its ability. In addition, I tried the USB features, and like the SCSI, there were no problems. The software packages are great, and unlike HP's previous attempts at TWAIN interfaces, this scanner interfaces well with Photoshop, QuarkXPress, InDesign and Illustrator, the programs I rely on most often. If you are a graphic enthusiast, or someone who is looking for a scanner that is one step above the rest (under $400), consider this one or it's less-equipped (no feeder) brother, the 6200C. If, however, you require a scanner that does slides, I'd recommend an Agfa DuoScan with a slide tray. The 6250's prism adapter is good, but not worthy of too much praise.
USB Version Works Just Fine.......1999-09-04
Having had SCSI problems in the past, I vowed never again to confront this monster.
Enter USB. So far everthing that I have connected to my Dell P2 450mh functions as hoped for (2 HP Scanners & 1 Sony CD-ROM burner).
If you don't have a USB port, then it is to your benefit and sanity to upgrade if you can.
Versatile Connections, adequate support.......1999-07-14
The HP 6200 and 6250 are somewhere near the top of HP's consumer / small office scanner line. They feature both SCSI and USB connections, though you cannot use both at once, as you might want to if you share the scanner between two computers.
Among the better points of the package is the Precision Scan Pro software that is included. I liked the fact that it allows you to set the desired final image size independent of the source size. This allows you to create images at the scanning stage that are appropriate for viewing either on screen or on paper. This kind of scaling is done optically rather than digitally, resulting in a smoother and more professional result.
Like other HP scanners I've experienced, the 6250 doesn't really like sharing the same SCSI chain with other devices. I found that I constantly had to reinstall it, change the SCSI device number, and fiddle with the order of other devices on the chain. Which brings up the subject of HP support. The support is not toll-free, and if you have owned the scanner more than three months you have to pay for both the call and the support, which is often patronizing and a little curt.
Once the scanner is set up and working, however, it works well, and the image quality is very good indeed, though I did read one terrible review of it. Scanning speed is good, especially in SCSI mode. And the PrecisionScan Pro software allows you to save your scan in just about any file format you might want. Uniquely, the software also allows you to scan an entire page and save the various text and picture elements separately, with text being OCR'd and placed with pictures in a re-creation of the original layout. Needless to say, this kind of very complicated automation is not without problems.
The slide adapter is only fair, being a prism that sits on top of the scanning bed. If 35mm slides are going to be a regular scanning source, one of the UMAX scanners with its slide-out drawer might be a better choice.
All in all, I'd recommend the 6250 (with document sheet feeder) or 6200C (without feeder) for someone with more than casual requirements for scanning.

You get what you pay for.......2007-08-27
This cable is poorly made. After about a little over a month of use, the cable insulation started to separate from the connector on one end. Mind you, this cable remained mostly stationary during its use and I never yanked on the cord to unplug it.

Horrible Phone.......2007-08-16
I came here to give my review of this product (because I was displeased enough to take action) and was surprised to see that the other reviews echoed my exact complaints.
We've had this phone for almost a year and we're replacing it because the buttons don't work dependably anymore. I've missed phone calls because the talk button wouldn't work when I pressed it.
On top of the button issue the battery life is feeble. This phone only holds a charge for a day or so.
Buyers beware!.......2005-09-06
This is a decent phone and answering system for about the first year, then two major problems start. If you have cell phones, charging them anywhere close to this phone will cause these problems to appear sooner than normal.
Buttons stick making it very hard to dial a number.
A clear conversation might be interrupted by "electronic noise."
GE 26998ge1 900 MHz Analog Cordless .......2005-08-12
This phone works well with good quality and reception.
Satisfactory Service.......2005-06-17
My parents have always tried to buy high quality but not overly expensive telephones with the expectation that they wont last over two years. It has been about a year and a half and the phone is still doing great. They love the phone, the machine works great, and the phone serves its purpose.
Button Problems.......2005-05-08
Phone itself (reception, sound, answering machine, etc) works great, but the buttons stick and then fall off. I see from the reviews I am not the only one with this problem. I am in this site now to look for phones as I am now missing my #1, #3, and talk buttons. E-mailed GE to see the price of a new handset and got a useless response telling me to call some long distance number?! Off to buy a phone!
