Canon CanoScan N1220U

I have 2 MFPs, one with a flat bed, the other with a sheet feeder/fax scanner, but the printer drivers have gone south, so on my Desktop, which still runs XP in contrast to my Lappy with Win7, I am trying to set up this scanner for a past eBay sale,...

Product Specifications

Impressive. Spectacular. Remarkable. There are many ways to describe this truly affordable scanner that delivers outstanding, scans. And when you consider the CanoScan 1220U numerous innovations that make scanning fast and easy, you'll agree-this is one amazing machine. The 1220U scanner is just over one inch high and uses a single USB cable for power and connection to any compatible Mac or PC. With the simple push of its external scan button, you get superb 42-bit scanning with the color depth and brilliance of more than four trillion possible colors. And its high-tech, metallic champagne finish makes this performance scanner look incredible wherever you put it. Canon's exclusive Z-Lid Expansion Top will change the way you scan bulky items, such as books and magazines. Many other scanner covers lift only at an angle and become uneven and awkward when scanning anything that isn't completely flat. The 1220U scanner cover includes a special expansion hinge that lifts up to one inch vertically and lies flat to create the space needed for bulky items.
