Canon CanoScan LiDE 20 Scanner

Canon CanoScan LiDE 20 Scanner

Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The CanoScan LiDE 20 is an easy to use scanner that gives you excellent, high resolution scans with consistent results across the width of the page. LiDE (LED Indirect Exposure) is Canon's own, advanced scanner technology. It provides scans of up to 600 x 1200 dpi and 48 bit colour with very low energy consumption - so low, in fact, that the LiDE 20 doesn't even need a power plug. It gets all the power it needs from the USB connection.

Compact Stylish Design

Canon endeavour to produce high quality, yet compact and stylishly designed products, and the CanoScan LiDE 20 is no exception. The LiDE 20 measures just 256 x 383 x 34mm and is finished with an attractive Ocean Blue coloured lid. In addition, the LiDE 20 includes a scanner stand as a standard accessory, enabling the user to store and scan with the scanner on its side, providing the world’s smallest installation footprint.

Single USB cable connection / No AC Adapter Required

Feel the ease of a simple connection with a single cord. The CanoScan LiDE 20 uses a USB 2.0 Full Speed interface cable to provide both data transfer and power to the scanner.

One Touch Scanning Experience

The CanoScan LiDE 20 includes three EZ scan buttons, ensuring quick access to great features. The "Scan" button saves the scanned image to file, "Copy" sends your image to a printer for automatic output, and "Email" saves the scanned file, as a specified file size, for attachment.

QARE v 2.0

QARE Technology (Quality Automatic Retouching and Enhancement) version 2.0 is featured on the CanoScan LiDE 20. QARE removes the minute dust and scratch on photographs using a software based interpolation process to achieve retouching effects. QARE version 2 has been enhanced, to improve the performance of dust and scratch reduction whilst also incorporating a function which reduces the noise level even further.

LiDE Technology

LIDE is Canon’s original and emblematic technology "LED Indirect Exposure". Essentially, LIDE allows Canon's Notebook scanners to gain higher colour fidelity and less distortion in image processing, whilst achieving image quality that is superior to CCD scanners in their class. LIDE also allows Canon's scanners to achieve lower prices, greater reliability and a smaller footprint , because there are less moving mechanical parts, and the CanoScan scanners use lower power consumption.

LIDE gives the new CanoScan’s higher sensitivity than conventional scanners, and is regarded, by industry experts, as the next-generation of image sensor technology.

Multi-Photo Mode

The One Path Multi-Scan feature on the CanoScan LiDE 20 ensures faster scanning of multiple images than previously. Historically, the more multiple images to be scanned, the longer scanning will take, because images are scanned one at a time. One Path Multi-Scan ensures that multiple images are scanned collectively ensuring faster scanning operation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent choice !!!, 4 Sep 2003
    By M.E.Roll (Gateshead, Tyne & Wear United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
    I suffered with my old "cheapy" scanner for two years, thinking it was as good as they get. However, that all changed when I used a friends Canon LiDE 20 scanner. I realised just how bad my old scanner really was. The Canon was small ( just over 1" high ) and very quiet. The scan time is so much faster using the USB2 port but the biggest advantage for me is not having to find a spare mains socket for a mains adapter. The low energy scanner light is totally powered through the USB port. - Absolutely magic. Great for swapping between my desktop and laptop. The scan quality is exactly what you would expect from a leading manufacturer..very very good. Needless to say - I bought one. If you're looking for a quality scanner at a reasonable price, with an excellent, easy to use scanner interface taking up the minimum of valuable desk space I can honestly recommend this scanner, it's brilliant. Top marks Canon.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to use, top product, 1 Nov 2004
    By Iceni Peasant (Norfolk, England) - See all my reviews
    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
    I found this scanner to be very easy to use on basic scanning, and still easy to use with more advanced settings.

    The end results are good quality; from photo scans to various types of documents I haven't found much wrong with the end result.

    One of the best features of the scanner is that it needs no mains socket and simply plugs into the computer via USB and runs off low power from the computer unit...fantastic. The scans are very quick, even for a full A4 sized item.

    The scanner itself is very sleak and slim, and comes with its own stand that enables the scanner to be stored on its side(like a PS2 games console) and takes up very little space.

    With the name Canon you expect excellence, the price might indicate this isn't top of their range, but for basic every day scanning requirements, this offers fantastic quality and value for money.

    5.0 out of 5 stars quality scanner at loose change price.., 25 Mar 2004
    My first scanner was as big as a house, cost major bucks and took up more space than it was worth..It still did a fair job but the wife cajoled me for taking up so much space on the dining room table--
    And so I found the Canon CanoScan LiDE 20 scanner on Amazon at an unbelievably low price. It looked small and by jove it is small, light, and takes up but a tiny area next to my system.
    The Big scanner now detached, can still be used, but the reproducing of pictures in speed, quality and technique by the Canon beats my old "steam driven" scanner into the proverbial cocked hat..Thanks Canon, thanks Amazon, my system is more compact and much better now, thank you..
