This scanner is very reliable and very easy to use. Plug in and download the software and away you go! It took several years for the rollers to wear out. This is the third scanner of this model that I have purchased for our office. This is a great machine.

Our company purchased this model to replace an old scanner. We use it for retaining records of product. Trace-ability and legibility are huge concerns, unfortunately, we are not getting what we need from this scanner. There are times when the scan will be so pixilated that you cannot read the date time stamp or the signatures. This is a major downfall for us.

This scanner has worked perfectly for my needs. It scans several sheets at a time, front and back, and the quality of the scan is great. It has a small footprint, so I can leave it on my desk right next to my computer and printer. However, the paper comes out of the bottom of the scanner, so move anything that might be in the way. I elevated mine just a couple of inches for that reason.

Have been using this product since 2012, now just need to replace the exchange roller to keep it going hopefully for another 5 years...

Bought this in order to digitize our old files and clear up room. Works great as a single page scan at a time, but if you want to do anything more than one sheet at once look somewhere else.

I have had two of these scanners for three months now. Widows 10. No problems whatsoever. Never had to uninstall software. It is not too loud. Pages have not stuck together. The software is pretty easy to set up, but getting to the advanced options requires you to checkmark a box in order to have those options displayed. I had to call customer service who helped me figure this out. More affordable than the Fujitsu, so that was important in my decision to buy the first one. Another lady in our office has no tech knowledge whatsoever, and she uses the second one I bought. Yes, I set up the scanner and destination folder for her new scanner, but she uses it by herself now. I have already told a friend at church he should buy this model.

This is a problem scanner if you have Windows 10. Canon does not give a warning and says that it is compatible. As long as Windows 10 never does an update (which is automatic, this is true. Windows 10 updates will disconnect the scanner for each update. The solution is to uninstall the driver, shutdown your computer and reinstall each time a Windows 10 update occurs. This can be several times a week. Huge time waster. Canon says that they are working with Microsoft to correct the problem and this situation can happen when new operating systems are introduced. Canon says this is a problem with all the Image Formula scanners. I usually like Canon products.

BEWARE: I bought this scanner thinking I would get the Nuance/PaperPort OCR software; well, that is true if your new laptop comes with a DVD drive, but my new laptop does not come with a disc drive, so I must rely on downloads to obtain new software. Canon does not provide any of the third-party software from Nuance for OCR capabilities by download, which is very disappointing since I rely on OCR for my business. I don't wish to order OCR software from third-parties like Nuance or ABBYY and spend another $120 for software that I thought came with the scanner by download. It would be helpful if Canon disclosed the software omission on its websites and shared this important info with reviewers so consumers can make an informed purchasing decision prior to purchasing and then setting-up the machine with their computer. While I'm at it, Canon's online instructions on what and how to download drivers and software are sorely inadequate. Canon...please take the guesswork and frustration out of the download process. Not all of us are "geeks" out here.

We have been using Fujitsu for years until I spotted this Canon scanner at my Doctor's office. The software is much easier to install and update. The end users find these easy to use and the return on investment makes it a hands down choice over anything from Fujitsu.
