the best was the light in the end. epic

[Sefveron]

so your saying all scanners of this model can do it? thats mad!

[pbarc552]

Haha! Love it! Thanks for sharing this!

[chimpkin]

They should have spent the time it took to do this to make a better scanner.

[chippers34]

is it loud

[jolokken]

Remember this... Actually did this the first time when speaking to HP-support, and they said it was a feature to check that the motor-control of the scanner was OK. Fun way of implementing though.. :-)

[tweeetie55]

[Slappingplastic]

[Mattteus]

HP Scanjet 5100C (both paraller as well as SCSI versions) have this same eastern egg as well. :) in paraller port version, you only need to push green scan button while pluggin the power cord.

but remember that if it's plugged to PC, windows will go totally nuts.

thank you for video, it makes great deal easier to explain this to others. :)

@NappeFTV What would happen if it was plugged to the pc lol

[NappeFTV]

@zeeman674 It has been a while I tested it, but in Win98 it did lock up the computer completely. you got no error, blue screen, nothing. It just went completely halt.

[travisuped]

That's definitely pretty cool. :o
