The CanoScan LiDE 20 USB flatbed scanner is one of the world's most compact flatbeds - still, it offers big performance and big savings. Just over an inch high, it packs in all the features you need to scan images, copy documents or e-mail your favorite photos. All with true "one-touch" operation. The LiDE 20 scanner is so intuitive and easy to use, first-time users can get expert results in remarkable color resolution up to 600 x 1200 dpi and up to 48-bit depth with over 281 trillion possible colors. To scan, just place the photo on the platen and push the "scan" button - that's it. "Copy" and "e-mail" functions are just as simple. Set up and operation is made even easier with just one cable for power and USB - no extra AC adapter needed.Scan multiple photos at once with the push of a button. "Multi-Scan mode" is automatically activated and scans all the pictures in a single pass, preparing a separate image file for each. It will even adjust any slightly misaligned photos. Scanning multi-pages into a PDF file is just as easy. Innovative software even allows you to save your images directly to CDs as easily as scan, click and burn.The LiDE 20 scanner is small but can tackle the big jobs. The exclusive Z-Lid expansion top lifts 1" high and stays flat for scanning books and magazines. Most other scanner covers lift only at an angle, often resulting in poor scans. Canon integrated QARE 2.0 (Quality Automatic Retouching and Enhancement) technology is designed to help perfect every scan by automatically removing much of the dirt and scratches from images, helping you to look like a pro.

Customer Rating: Summary: Small Size + Functionality + Low Price Comment: I haven't read up on scanners much lately, but at the time I bought this one a couple of years ago, it was a perfect low price, thin, and lightweight scanner that worked very well for basic tasks. It still works great on the rare occasions I use it to scan snapshots, simple drawings, or text. Although another family member did have trouble getting it to work with one of our computers, I have personally never had a problem. If you can get a good deal on a used one, I'd say to go for it. Customer Rating: Summary: Great portable scanner Comment: I have had a LiDE20 for about 2 years. I use it with my Toshiba lap top. It gives a geat scan and the multi scan function is really a time saver when scanning snap shots etc. J Barton, Westminster Co 12/05 Customer Rating: Summary: DEAD in the WATER - even with Expert Assistance Comment: I nearly went nuts trying to get this thing to work after buying it. I thought the problem must have been with my Dell Dimension older computer so I packed it away for a couple of months. Later, I took it into my office and asked the IT department to install it on my state of the art work computer (I didn't have a scanner at work at the time). After 3 hours of trying they handed it back over to me and gave me a Canon customer service name/email address -- so basically two IT team members couldn't figure it out. I followed up with Toshiba with a few back and forth emails... but after all of that, blood pressure rising, I was actually ready to throw it out the window. Being a pack rat, however, I think it's packed away under my bed. Wish I had returned it - but too much time had passed. If you have any sound advice on this machine please let me know.
