The Canon imageFORMULA is a true lightweight that does not require much space and at the same time making great job. Is connected the small black device via mini-USB. This connection of the electricity is supplied at the same time. From my Mac the device is recognized immediately and the installation of the necessary drivers ran off quickly and easily. Equally simple is the handling of the device and the associated program. If you open the document scanner on, you can fold out the left and right small adjustable guide rails ensure an even feed of the sheet. In addition, a sheet is immediately detected and jammed in the machine. The PC or Mac will immediately recognize that the scanner is enabled, a window opens and you can start with a few clicks or a button to scan. The leaves are scanned from both sides simultaneously and very quickly. At the same time the document is due to the high resolution, but in a very good quality scanned (600dpi). The saving can be done in different formats and you can move the file equal to the right place. Unfortunately, my unit starts after repeated use now so that it slightly creaks when sheet feeder. But that should be a problem that you can easily fix. If you want to transport the document scanner, you can use, among others, the small bag supplied. the cable is easily stored and the unit took on him so as I said only a little space.
Conclusion: For me, it is an ideal device for small office home or professionals who travel a lot and / or need to scan a lot of documents. The scanner works fix, reliable and scans have a great quality.
