Scanjet G4050

SilverFast gets the best out of your Scanjet G4050. Use our IFF+Engine (Intelligent Frame Finding) to automatically find the frames of your photos lying on the flatbed.

Scanjet G4050

  • Flatbed scanner with transparency unit (216mm x 311mm)
  • Optical resolution: 4800 x 9600 dpi (according to manufacturer)
  • Color depth: 96 bit (with 6-Color-Scan)

The Scanjet G4050 is a flatbed scanner for documents and photos, with the transparency unit also for slides, negatives and filmstrips. It’s possible to scan 16 framed slides or 30 small picture negatives simultaneously due to the exceptionally big transparency unit.

The outstanding optical resolution the manufacturer claims for the Scanjet G4050 has to be taken skeptically – especially when regarding the G4050’s low price category. However, the device benefits noticeable from a color calibration and an increasement of the dynamic range using SilverFast.
