Canon CanoScan 5600F

By M. David Stone (pcmag.com)

Any flatbed scanner is technically suitable for all-purpose scanning, since you can scan anything on it. But some are clearly targeted more for some uses than others. A case in point is the Canon CanoScan 5600F ($149.99 direct), which focuses on ...

High-quality scans of both prints and film (slides and negatives). LED light source for reflective scans eliminates warm-up time

Scans only four slides or one strip of film at a time. Dust and scratch removal feature does little for scratches

Although it's a bit slow and comes with little software, the Canon CanoScan 5600F offers lots of value thanks to its high-quality scans and low price.

A case in point is the Canon CanoScan 5600F ($149.99 direct), which focuses...

Canon CanoScan LiDE 200

Speedy performer, Compact design

Doesn't scan film, Limited OCR features

The Canon CanoScan LiDE 200's main limitations are that it scans only reflective items (no film scans) and it can't do much in the way of OCR. We were able to create searchable PDFs and plain-text (.txt) files from various documents, but we couldn't ...

To keep the Canon CanoScan LiDE 200's cost down, however, Canon elected not...

Horrible!!

By Me (newegg.com)

This was my first Cannon product after my HP died - just because. The quality of the HP is what I would have expected it to be given the specs. This Cannon's quality is no where near as good as a standard scanner. I am not sure why this thing scans at poo...

It LOOKS nice and it's fast

The resolution in the specs (optical) is not available when put to use. I feel as if I had been decieved! This thing only goes up to 1200 dpi! This is garbage! I got this to replace an HP that DID do about 4800 dpi! You can' even trust specs anymore

Unusable :-(

By dr greg (newegg.com)

Unfortunately this is not the first time I've had Canon products, where the hardware was probably better than average, only to be sabotaged by brain-dead software [a slidescanner, a p/s digi cam, an inkjet printer, and now this scanner]. This is our 5th s...

Fast page scan time - 14secs at 200dpi A4 color ; one USB cable for comm and power

Unable to do the simplest things: give me an honest copy of the page on the scanner and dump the .bmp into a file. The software insisted on trying to color/contrast correct the image (even when using the driver directly and all corrections turned off) - I...
