Canon Scanner Dr-m160ii Duplex

While I have previously looked at many scanners, I think this is my first A3 scanner. I have looked at several A3 units that were ‘All In One’. So while any A3 unit is somewhat larger than an A4 unit this seems not to be that much larger. So if you have need to scan items of A3 size rather than using A4 and joining the two images together this is for you.

I have been using Canon scanners for years. The Capture Perfect software is wonderful and really sets the Canon scanners apart from the competition like Fujitsu. Pros: Software is amazing, if purchased new, it also comes with a PDF program license and Kofax key. High quality scans Fast Lots of useful features like ultrasonic sensor preventing double feeds Cons: The tray at the bottom occasionally catches documents. - Solution, tape a piece of paper to keep the feeding tray "smooth" so documents wont snag where it extends. When overfilled, you have to jiggle the papers to get them to feed. -Solution, don't overfill the feeding tray. The software allows continuous scanning so there is no need to over stuff the feeding tray.

This desktop scanner is so easy to use and makes my job so much easier. I can scan documents directly to folders on my computer or directly to a printer. It scans small, odd shaped pieces of paper, such as receipts, too! Love it!

Works as advertised, which is important. I don't want something that doesn't work.

Scanner is smooth and the images are excellent. Good choice. Also, the support technician was very patient and helped me get it up and going.
