Horrible product. The software is very slow, confusing to use and restrictive. I bought an HP 5550 7 years ago that was 10x better than this machine. One of the things that is annoying is that when scanning, the software window disappears for a while before reappearing with the image. You begin to wonder what's going on. It's also quite restrictive in terms of scanning parameters. I'm used to playing with dpi, scanning format, etc. Either these options are buried somewhere in a menu, or the software doesn't let you have control over such things. And the manual is very poor: doesn't tell you anything. I'm not going to try to figure this one out. It goes back to the store. Shame on you, HP!

        Purchased this for my home office, but have also been using to catch up on all the scanning for my "regular job". Love the two sided scanning capability, although it is a little slow when doing 2-sided it is better than flipping pages.

        Been using mostly for documents so far, but am looking forward to using the photo and negative scanning capabilities also.

            Comments about HP Scanjet 5590 Scanner:

            Needed scanner with a document feeder, and paid a premium for this scanner. Document feeder constantly jammed, paper was difficult to remove without tearing, and difficult to fish out of the works. I eventually resorted to feeding in sheets one by one by hand. Software was powerful, but difficult to master, and often got in the way of simple scan jobs. In addition, the lamp failed more quickly then with other scanners. There is no way to replace then lamp (nor can a replacement be found for purchase), and it was helpfully suggested I buy another scanner!
            This has capped similar dreadful experiences with other HP products, and I will NEVER buy HP ever again.

                We use this product in our law office for legal document scans. It worked really well for about 8 months. Then the Automatic Document Feeder stopped working and a week later, the software went kaput. A very slow and unpredictable machine.

                    The software gives you a choice of of output formats and PDF is one of them. You can also save your scan as an image file like TIF or PNG.

                  Is this product compatable with Windows 7 (or Windows 8 next year) and can you scan several pictures and save them as individual pictures like the HP G4050?

                    No, this scanner is not compatible with Windows 7 and would not be compatible if there was a Windows 8. Pictures can be saved individually.
