Set up was quick and within no time I was able to have digital copies stored locally as well as sent to a Google Drive folder automatically for sharing through the scanners own software. It's a good bit of kit and I was able to scan all of my documents in under an hour. The time per scan pass was reasonably fast. I was very happy to see this scanner is powered over USB which makes it very useful if it's needed when away from home or out of the office. If you're a mobile worker with a laptop or tablet, you will be able to power this scanner through your USB port. I haven't used it to scan photos or artwork so couldn't comment on how well it reproduces colour images. But grey scale documents and OCR is spot on. Review: A worthy successor to the departed Canon 220 - The Canon LIDE 400 is my third of these type of scanner I have had over time starting with the Lide 110. Previous Lide models all worked reasonably well except from panel scanner buttons which stopped many years ago on MacOS, a software issue probably. My Lide 220 didn't survive the upgrade from from Ventura 13.6 to Sonoma 14.0 via should add though the same would have happened going to Windows 11and it's about 10 years in the market. I tried the usual things but it didn't really seem to budge so decided not to sweat the problem and just get a more up to date Canon. First, desertcart supplied wickedly fast arriving 7:43 AM less than 12 hours after ordering. The Lide 400 is the top of the range of Lide scanners, the 300 is about £20 cheaper but loses some document scanning options exchanging USB C for a micro B on the back of the cheaper model. I mf you are going portable I'd go for the 400 because those micro B are super delicate and only go in one way. I mainly use it for document scanning though quoted resolution and apparent facilities make it good for photography too I bet. For document scanning the Lide 400 claims about 8 seconds scanning time whereas my old Lide 210 10 seconds, the difference isn't readily apparent in practice so the cheaper Lide 300 would have done just as well for that document scanning. I am a Mac user so that is what I will concentrate on, there are loads of people out there who have reports with Windows. Box contents: - Scanner - USB A to C cable - Scanner stand - CD (see below) - Documentation Only thing to do is remove the tapes, other packaging and unlock the scanner head (bottom towards the front). Then hook up the cable and make Mac OS aware via Printers and scanners of the new unit detected via AirPrint although it's a scanner and no Wi-Fi involved. Effectively this means support is built into Mac OS itself so there is no driver from Canon. To save this being too long some bullet points: Good * Scanner is very nearly plug and play affair with Mac with respect to driver install. You just have to add the scanner from within the Settings app, it is an AirPrint device even thought it is not a printer. * IJ Scan utility is dark mode - hooray! * Very clear fast document scans at 300 DPI should be good for higher resolution photography work. * Scanner front panel buttons which actually do work, previous models buttons stopped working (some kind of software issue). Not so Good * The CD only contains a Windows installer, for Mac you will have reach Canon's driver pay to download any relevant companion software. * There seemed to be some teething issues with detection of the scanner, I managed to resolve by juggling connections of my 16 port USB hub to fix. * IJ Scan utility is very much more complicated than it was, not good for keyboard users. I accept though that this is a very niche thing. Most others want more buttons and functionality which it does provide.§ * You cannot tweak the precise behaviour of the physical buttons on the scanner. ## Features - IMPRESSIVELY SHARP - Produce incredibly sharp, high-resolution scans of any photo or document in just 8 seconds thanks to Canon’s unique LiDE technology. - SPECIALIZED FUNCTIONALITY - Start scanning instantly with specialised EZ functions that Auto Scan, copy, email and produce PDFs at the touch of a button. - EASY FUNCTIONALITY - Take advantage of the 5 EZ buttons and create hassle-free multiple-page PDFs without using your PC or laptop. - AUTO DOCUMENT FIX - Ensure distortion-free results with Auto Document Fix and Auto Photo Fix to get pristine results every time. - COMPACT DESIGN - Enjoy the effortless adaptability and compact nature of the CanoScan LiDE 400 scanner in your home or office – the vertical stand attachment keeps even more desk space free. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07G1S1FKW | | Best Sellers Rank | 665 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 1 in Document Scanners | | Box Contents | User manual, cable or plug. | | Brand Name | Canon | | Color Depth | 24 bits | | Country of Origin | Vietnam | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (5,464) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04549292119855 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 36.5D x 25W x 3.9H centimetres | | Item Type Name | Colour Flatbed Scanner | | Item Weight | 1.7 Kilograms | | Light Source Type | LED | | Manufacturer | Canon (UK) Ltd | | Media Type | USB | | Minimum System Requirements | Windows 7 SP1 or higher (PC), macOS 10.11.6 or higher (Mac) | | Model Name | LiDE400 | | Network Connectivity Technology | USB | | Optical Sensor Technology | CMOS | | Product Warranty | 12 Month Warranty | | Resolution | 4800 dpi | | Scanner Type | Document, Photo | | Standard Sheet Capacity | 1 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Wattage | 4.5 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Canon - **Colour depth:** 24 bits - **Connectivity technology:** USB - **Item weight:** 1.7 Kilograms - **Model name:** LiDE400 - **Product dimensions:** 36.5D x 25W x 3.9H centimetres - **Resolution:** 4800 dpi - **Scanner type:** Document, Photo - **Standard sheet capacity:** 1 - **Wattage:** 4.5 watts ## Images ![Canon LiDE 400 Flatbed Scanner, Fast A4 Scanning with USB-C 3.0 Port - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712jgOD-MTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Why won't it work in linux?** A: It does work with Linux.

It came with a lead which I did not realise so had ordered another one separately which was slightly irritating. The installation is incredibly easy - you have to plug in the scanner's lead directly into the computer and there is no other electrical connection. It comes up instantly with the information you need to instal it and then you can download the manual if you need to. It loses a star here because I think the manual is quite unnecessarily complicated. There are buttons on the end of the scanner which are absolutely straightforward - the only sad thing is that there does not appear to be a facility for scaling an image up or down in size or for cropping. The only way to crop an image is to use the facility that "stitches" two images together which is not ideal. The stitching facility and the fact that you can scan several images at once is good though. I really don't need the stand that makes it possible to store the scanner on its side - a space-saver I suppose but a fiddly widget. A useful office tool in every other way. ## Frequently Bought Together - Canon LiDE 400 Colour Flatbed Scanner (Black) - Space Saving Design with USB Type-C Connectivity, Easy One-Touch Operation - Ideal for Home or Office - INIU USB C Charger Cable 2m 3.1A Type C Cable Fast Charging, Braided USB A to USB-C Phone Charger Cable USBC for iPhone 16 15 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S25 S24 Ultra, Pixel 9, iPad Air, Switch, Steam etc. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/78934645-canon-lide-400-flatbed-scanner-fast-a4-scanning-with-usb](https://www.desertcart.it/products/78934645-canon-lide-400-flatbed-scanner-fast-a4-scanning-with-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-09-24*
