Enable powerful colour copy/scan
functions in-house
• Outstanding scan performance increases efficiency.
With scan speeds up to 76 mm/3 inches per second
colour and 253 mm/10 inches per second black and white,
the HP Designjet 4500 Scanner delivers outstanding copy
and scan performance and increases efficiency. The output
basket will accept scanned originals for fast and easy
operation during a high-volume batch-scanning job.
Scan, then save, print or copy and move on to the next
task without ever leaving your HP system.
• High processing speed makes short work of large files.
The HP Designjet 4500 Scanner comes standard with
an embedded Windows XPe operating system and an
Intel Pentium IV processor. The 2.6Ghz processing speed,
1 GB memory, and 30 GB hard disk drive enable faster
scan and copy performance.
• Powerful scan resolution creates high-quality images with
realistic colors and precise lines. Use the HP Designjet 4500
Scanner to create scans that have a level of detail that
is comparable to the originals. With a resolution of 508
dpi optical and 2400 ppi enhanced from three cameras,
and a 0.1 percent line accuracy, your scanned files are
indistinguishable from new output, and reproduce the
original documents precisely. The monochrome Dual
2D-Adaptive enhancement technology produces clean
and crisp scans even from poor-quality originals.
• Produce large-format colour and black-and-white scans
from wide or thick, rigid originals. Add scanning
functionality to produce electronic files and hard copies of
colour and black-and-white documents. The scanner accepts
originals up to 1092 mm/43 inches wide and 15.2
mm/0.6 inches thick, so you can handle oversized and
heavyweight originals even those mounted on foam board.
The 1067 mm/42 inches scan area captures wide-format
images for easy printing, copying, and saving. The scanner
does not limit scan length.
Create an integrated HP scan-copy-print system
• Closed-loop colour calibration gives you consistent, vibrant,
natural colour reproduction. Every scan, copy, and print
contains the same vivid colours as the original document.
The closed-loop calibration ensures that colour reproduction
is consistent and true-to-life. The HP Designjet 4500 printer
series offers vivid colours that match or even perfect the hues
and tones of the original. Use the predefined profiles for most
commonly used media, or create and store custom profiles.
• Integration with the printer enables excellent ease of use,
copy quality, and performance
Scanner’s integrated copy system features realtime
printer, media, and queue information in the scanner
user interface, copy accounting in the printer, and copy
job priority capability.
• Preconfigured drivers and network connectivity integrate
your entire HP production system. With the HP Designjet
4500 Scanner, you don’t have to worry about device
compatibility. The preconfigured drivers and built-in network
connectivity make it easy to add this scanner to your HP
Designjet 5000/5500 series, 4000/4500 series, 1000
series, and 500/800 series products. Eliminate user
retraining by including this scanner in your HP design-andproduction solution.

Scan, copy, and print at the touch of a button
• Use the touch-screen graphical display for easy, intuitive
operation. Even untrained users can produce great copy
and scan results from the intuitive, 381mm/15inches, touchscreen display. The graphical interface walks the user
through the appropriate procedure to produce the type of
document or file that you need. Rather than mixing different
brands, simply add the HP Designjet 4500 Scanner to the
HP Designjet products that you already know and trust.
• Use advanced copy features to streamline your job.
The advanced copy functions of the HP Designjet 4500
printer series help you make copies quickly and easily.
Skew is never a problem when you use the auto-alignment
option to load and preview your original. Enlarge or
reduce images and adjust margins to create the ideal image.
Use the nesting option to save media, and make large
enlargements easily with the paneling option. You can also
track your output by using the integrated accounting features.
• Seamless network connectivity, including a built-in keyboard
for easy access. The HP Designjet 4500 Scanner fits
seamlessly into your production setup and your network.
Using state-of-the-art 10/100Base-T networking and TCP/IP
protocols, you can communicate across a network on
the keyboard that comes standard with this stand-alone
or add-on scanner.
