imageFORMULA P-208II Portable Scanner | Double-sided Scanning | USB Powered for Home, Office or when Mobile | 10 Sheet Feeder | Driverless Scanning with Canon CaptureOnTouch Lite Software

This is such a good little portable scanner. In a world of CamScanner and similar, sometimes people can think "what's the point of something like this", but actually it's such an amazing device, I wanted to go into a little more detail about it. PROS 1. It's lightweight and very portable (more about that below) 2. It scans as well as other more expensive high quality scanners 3. It can scan duplex (double sided) 4. It can scan more than one document at once (believe it or not, it has like a small sheet feeder) CONS 1. It's not a high speed scanner like in an office (but it's not slow either). USES (as promised) 1. We used it in the office to scan everything from A4 to little petrol receipts 2. I use it when going to help relatives with scanning important documents - here is the even better part - within the scanner is a small disk drive which will get found when you plug it in to a USB port of someone's computer. On the drive is software and the drivers to run the scanner, so no need to take discs, download software, search for drivers, take a separate USB etc, it's all within the scanner. 3. It's robust, and because it's so simple to use (one button operation) it's easy for anyone.....however, the software allows you to configure so many options, so when the button is pressed, you are getting exactly what you want and how you want it. I would have given it 5 stars on "Easy to Use", except it took a little while to realise about the scanner having the internal drive with everything you need on it - once you figure that part out, it's 5 stars across the board. This is definitely worth the money, and highly recommended.

I unpacked and commenced setting it up today. It took 5 mins. But I posted a community question saying I had Windows 10, it scanned but wouldn't save the photos. One response said it was a waste of money. Well, I'd like to report that my own stupidity was the reason. I wasn't fully following the instructions. Once I'd got over the teething problems, I scanned about 150 photos in no time. Easy to pop into files so I'm hoping to complete 7 boxes of photos onto my PC in about another 4 days of scanning. It is so quick at scanning. And senses if a document is double sided so scans back and front just by popping the document in. I could scan multiples of photos - just feed them through one after the other. It's quiet, efficient and has capability of altering the clarity, brightness etc of images. Also you can rotate the images. I would thoroughly recommend it for sorting all your photos. We have a scanner within our printer but this little one just connects right next to my laptop without me having to leave my desk. Added advantage is because it only needs to connect with my PC I can use it anywhere. A brilliant buy and I would thoroughly recommend it.

in my tech life i used so many different scanner, but this one is my favourite: * it's compact * easy to use * and good value for money definitely i live in a small house where i don't have enough space so i was looking for a compact scanner without all the drama of connecting to mains and having massive desk. So after a intense research i decided to buy this one and i am writing this review after a prolonged use and i can suggest anyone is looking for a portable scanner this one is one of the best. pro: * lots of scanning option EX: receipt, bank card, even odd shaped paper. NO PROBLEM * no power cord required. LIFE SAVING * Duplex enabled (front and rear scanning at the same time) Con: * because is very compact you have to be very careful with cleaning

One of several broadly similar designs from various brands, including models by Epson, Brother and Fujitsu, that offer portable document scanning. Typically, the types of documents most accept are invoices, letters and some forms up to A4 in size. Some will accept them folded, punched or perforated but only when a feeder sheet (a transparent plastic folder) is used to contain the document. What is unique about this "Canon P-208II Mobile Scanner Duplex 8 ppm 10xADF Mac Win - Black" is that it auto-detects coloured originals (most alternatives are mono only!) and accepts embossed letterheads etc, plastic cards of various types and sizes and also laminated documents up to a certain thickness. A fabric storage bag is included and it is sufficiently small and light to be transported in a backpack, larger messenger bags, briefcase etc. Although another portable scanner has been successfully used for various paper documents, recent requests to provide copies of a driving license and variously thick laminated documents smaller than A4 showed that scanner could not accept them; it feeds paper through a deeply curved path through which thicker items cannot pass. Ideally, a basic, inexpensive flat-bed scanner would be a possible solution, an inexpensive all-in-one printer another, but availability for most as at mid-March 2021 is almost non-existent although limited to the most expensive photo-scanners which are not ideal for the specific purposes or the more expensive AIO printers, both a waste of large sums in these difficult times. Regardless, there is a substantial duplication of functionality between both portable scanners. The scanner is tethered by a provided USB cable and it does not have on-board document storage via a micro-SD card or similar. Canon provide a software suite that provides the necessary scanning options, storage choices etc for both Mac and Windows systems on an included CD and probably an older version; most users will need to download the current packages from Canon's Product Support page. One unique feature Canon claim for this is the ability to de-skew and re-align the scan so that the document is perfectly vertical or horizontal as necessary. There were initial problems with an error code repeatedly offered on every attempt to scan a document and not mentioned within its PDF manual. An on-line explanation and corrective procedure was found and it helped. It was also found that Canon's site offered a more current version of the software that was later installed - problem fully resolved! Scanning quality is favourably comparable to that from the older scanner, and its ability to scan in colour, the wider range of document types and thickness the P208II accepts are major significant advantages. There is a Canon-branded soft canvas case should one be needed but its price is beyond reasonable when hard cases for comparable models are about less than half its price. There may be an alternative.

Ottimo prodotto ad un prezzo sicuramente accessibile se rapportato a quello degli scanner piani (più economici) e a quello dei compatti verticali da tavolo (molto più costosi). Funziona benissimo, l'ho acquistato ormai da più di un mese e usato numerose volte. Il prodotto è solido, ben costruito e semplice da usare; utilissimo proprio in quelle situazioni di lavoro fuori ufficio o per salvare spazio sulla scrivania. Fornito di custodia morbida (forse un po troppo), può essere riposto tranquillamente nella borsa del portatile e trasportato facilmente. Funziona semplicemente collegando il cavo USB ad una porta del PC o Mac (io lo uso su un MacBook Pro), addirittura ha un tasto switch sul retro che ti permette di farlo riconoscere come periferica di scansione standard, senza la necessità di scaricare ed installare i driver dal sito quando usato sul pc di altre persone. L'installazione standard con software e driver è semplice e funzionale, ti permette di creare dei presets in base a risoluzione, colore, b/n ecc, esportando in qualsiasi formato anche pdf multipagina. Io lo uso principalmente per documenti di testo a colori e b/n ma ho avuto ottimi risultati con immagini e foto alta risoluzione. Le pagine vengono riconosciute da un sensore ottico che fa scendere un fermo meccanico che blocca le pagine al momento dell'inserimento, questo impedisce che la pagina scappi via all'ultimo momento prima di essere scansionata. In definitiva ottimo prodotto che svolge pienamente le funzioni per cui è stato progettato. Consigliato

Bestelling geplaatst via Amazon, maar product nooit ontvangen. Direct contact opgenomen met zowel verkoper als DHL. Verkoper bood alleen een printformulier aan, wat ik niet kon gebruiken, en er werd geen digitaal alternatief aangeboden. Vervolgens een A-tot-Z-garantieclaim ingediend, die tot twee keer toe onterecht werd afgewezen. Op verzoek van Amazon aangifte gedaan bij de politie en bewijs hiervan overlegd. Ondanks alle stappen die ik heb genomen, geen terugbetaling ontvangen en extra kosten moeten maken door het product elders opnieuw te kopen. Teleurgesteld in de afhandeling en de service, dit is niet wat ik gewend ben van Amazon.

Le produit donne un très bon résultat. J'ai mis 4 **** parce que à la livraison les vitres du scanner étaient sans doute avec de la poussière et donnait des lignes blanches sur les photos scannées. Il faut les nettoyer avec un produit genre lunettes ou écran et les lignes disparaissent. La qualité des photos scannées est saisissante de qualité.

Perfecto y muy rapido para digitatilizar documentos. Muy comodo dado el escaner de doble cara que solo hay que pasar una vez la hoja y la mini bandeja de 10 hojas. La aplicacion que lleva incorporada, a traves de una unidad que genera el scaner al conectarse es muy simple y efectiva. Perfecto tambien para digitalizar tarjetas de visita, dni, tarjetas de credito u otros documentos.

ゴミ USB接続しただけでスキャンアプリが開くが、説明書の通りに給紙しても、トレーに紙が無いと言われてエラーを起こす。公式サイトからスキャナーソフトをインストールしても同様。 つまり本体の給紙トレー認識にバグがある。 無駄なソフトのダウンロード時間とPC容量を無駄にした。 おもちゃ以下の詐欺商品。
