Customer Review: Hardware pretty good, software lousy
Owned the 4570c for a while. Avoid the bundled driver software if you can. The latest version, v2.0, downloads a mere 238MB (that's right "MB"!). It runs turtle speed, making a nice USB 2.0 scanner seem like it's USB 0.002. Plugging into XP machine (my laptop), I let Microsoft find the driver. It downloaded and installed WIA-HP, a twain driver that is menial (very limited controls) but operates with considerably improved speed under my applications... a big time saver if you've got a pile of doc's to scan. My home desktop is still Win2KPro. I've had no luck getting the WIA-HP driver to run on it, unfortunately.
Customer Review: More trouble than it was worth.
Drivers have to be reinstalled repeatedly. Finally got it up and running only to have the lamp burn out.
