five stars for scanner & two stars for software November 22, 2008 Paul (Boston MA) My first scanner and I'm wondering why I didn't get one long ago. Having bought it for receipts, I also started to use it for other items - like short product information, some restaurant recommendations that someone had scribbled for me, an antique postcard that makes a nice desktop image etc etc. It is working out great to replace not just receipts but all the scattered bits of paper that appear.
The good news - it worked immediately on plugging into my Mac, it's easy to use, the quality is great and in fact way above what I need. The bad news - the software is terrible. For example. I save my receipts with filenames in the form (date)-(amount)-(seller). But the scanner software has a 20-character limit on filename, so I have to save short name and then rename to the name that I want. It continually pops up popup windows to tell you that the scan is finished, the file is saved etc. A small thing maybe, but an irritating waste of clicking and time. So I'm very happy to be digitizing my stuff, and making it easier to process receipts, and archive information, but I would like it more if the software was not so clunky!
Avery good bargain November 22, 2008 William C. Aycock (Woodville, AL USA) This is a very good scanner. It worked as desired right out of the box. Our first test scan was of an object-- a Sweet Gum Leaf with full fall color. It did as well as other scanners we paid much more for. It is light, thin, and needs no extra power source.
Canon LiDE100 November 8, 2008 Randle Blankenship (Denton, TX USA) Bought this scanner to replace my failed Epson Perfection 1650. I like its compact size and quietness, and find the operating speed close to that of the 1650. The software is ok, and scanner operation is as convenient as that of the 1650, but there is less flexibility to allow altering color satuation, hue, etc. I found image sharpness disappointingly soft, and color saturation less than that of the original photo being copied. The overall effect is a somewhat faded, hazy image. Tried downloading and installing a fresh driver, but that didn't change this characteristic. After selecting USE SCANNER DRIVER on the operating panel, I was able to make selections that improved the image quality somewhat, but it is still not up to the performance of my previous scanner. Turning off the softening mask makes very little improvement. For me this scanner does not live up to previous glowing user reviews that helped decide this purchase.
Great scanner for generic everyday jobs November 8, 2008 Jan Klier (Seattle, WA USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I needed a scanner to scan an occasional document, receipt, or magazine page. Image quality needed to be decent and other than that I wanted a device that just did the job and didn't need a lot of hand-holding.
So far I'm satisfied to impressed. Take it out of the box, plug in the USB cable (big plus it doesn't add yet another power adapter to my setup), Windows Vista automatically detects and installs the driver and you're ready to go. I didn't even look at the software CD which comes with the scanner for the first week. The OS integrated driver is sufficient for the generic scans.
It's nice and small and lightweight, has a small locking slider for the lid on the bottom. So when I'm not scanning I simply unplug the USB port and it's easily stored on the shelf and not taking up valuable space.
The scan speed and image quality is good enough for my needs. I'm sure some folks may have a more detailed critique, but that wasn't what I'm looking for.
After eventually installing the software that came with it, the copy button on the front works fine. Push it and the software will scan and then send the result to the printer. Not a high volume copying solution, but if one makes a copy at home once in a blue moon and hates the trip to Kinko's this fits in well.
So if you're looking for a simple and reasonably priced scanning solution for occasional work, this is a great choice.
Works great November 6, 2008 N. Yu (United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Unit is powered by USB alone and no power adapter which is a plus for portability. I find the OCR very accurate and is a real value for the money.
