I have a Brother laser printer that I have owned since 2002 and it still rings like a bell. I am attracted to printers with scanners, but it simply isn't necessary for me to purchase one at this time. The CanoScan served my needs for price and usability.

Not even a year old, very little use. I scanned a total of around 50 pages over the past few months. Now it gives me a message that I need to unlock the scanning unit. Tried the troubleshooting steps, driver re-install, etc. Nothing works. Bought directly from Amazon. Very disappointed.

It's every bit as easy to use as I had imagined the perfect desktop scanner ought to be. And it's also very fast in scanning in color. For the reasonable price, you can't go wrong with this scanner!

I had my LiDE 220 less than a year. It's a low budget scanner. It's compact and easy use when it's working. Lately I had hard time to connect. I tried several different cables. Today I found out that the mini USB port broken off and fell into the case.

This scanner has reviews for good quality for scanning artwork from various online sources but it isn't so. Especially if you want to print the artwork. It might be ok to scan a sketch or a painting to post online but when it comes to printing I'm not sure why it is reviewed as a good scanner....

The scanner itself if great and easy-to-use. However, it's too bad that the manuals that come packaged don't help too much with how to set it up and use it. Luckily I was able to figure out that I put paper in and press a button!

This is a flat bed scanner that's been used a lot since I bought it about 2 weeks ago. I've been scanning old family snapshots from the 1920s and 30's for hours on end. The pictures are clear and it's easy to use. There are a series of grouped icons on the lower right of your monitor above the time.

Haven't had a problem; Once in awhile you need to dust the flatbed; Old photos leave dust

Great product for the price

You can think of the Canon CanoScan LiDE220 Color Image Scanner ($89.99) as either a low-end photo scanner that can't scan film, or as a high-end model for people who don't need to scan film and don't want to pay extra for a feature they'll never use.

High-quality photo scans; Image enhancements include color restore and dust removal; Scans to searchable PDF and editable text formats

Extremely limited software; No photo editor; Inconsistent commands from one choice for scanning to the next

When you first get the scanner, there's a mechanical latch on the bottom of the scanner that locks the scanner head in place during shipping. Make sure you unlock it! I spent an hour scratching my head when setting it up and I was ready to call tech support before I figured it out.

Solid simple scanner that works well; I'm using it to digitize a couple thousand of my parent's old pictures, and the software allows you to scan as many photos as you can fit in the scanner at a time, and it automatically parses each photo into it's own file..; Saving me a TON of time

None thus far
