Hewlett Packard Compaq 8100 Elite

[3000 Pages] For the last time I've coughed up $150 for print cartridges for a Hewlett-Packard, never again! SuperTank bottles are $12-$14 and have twice as much ink and a HP cartridge. Seems to print every bit as nicely as HP but costs WAY less to operate.

[Black] Not much to say other than it works well on my SJ5000X Elite.

[Yes] it works w/ my xps 8100 for dual monitor purposes. Dell recommended me wrong adapter for dual monitor twice!!! But i was able to find the same adapter that I already got w/ my system on cablestogo :-).

[CCD] I bought the OpticFilm 8100 to digitize my old 35mm slides. It does an awesome job. I followed the WorkflowPilot in the SilverFast 8.0 (the software comes with the OpticFilm 8100) and using the highest available resolution (7200dpi) it took 4 minutes and 48 seconds to produce the best possible scan. The software is designed to take into consideration the color issues of older slides and will automatically try to correct with the Histogram option. 9 times out of ten this correction is spot on, but sometimes you need to tell the software to ignore. However, 10 times out of ten, I tell it to ignore the Gradation - it always tends to over-saturate the colors. There are other options like Selective Color Correction where you and adjust hue and saturation by themselves that are useful at times. Keep in mind that using the 7200 dpi you'll get a monster-sized file a 100 MB or larger, but that works if you're planning on printing. At the 1800 dpi it took 35 seconds and produced a 10 MB file which would be good for web. There is also a mid range of 3600 dpi that fits in the middle of both time to scan and file size, so you have 3 good options. I am VERY pleased with my purchase and will get good use from this device and included software.

[35mm ] Works great for holding slides, no issues at all. Worth the purchase if you have a 8100 or 8200 scanner.

[Black] Much improved over the Elite series ports.

[Yes, Kensington] I have been using this for work and I liked it so much I ordered one for my new HP Elite at home.
