Digital camera reviews of Canon CanoScan FB620U USB Flatbed Scanner
Digital camera Review: Not for Mac
Summary: 4 Stars
Okay, small, not that loud, fair scanning. But Canon will not release drivers for the Mac. I found other software that costs $40 but works well. Still, fair warning.
Summary of Canon CanoScan FB620U USB Flatbed Scanner
The CanoScan FB 620U puts incredible scanning performance on any desktop from a space little bigger than a sheet of paper. Thanks to Canon's patented LIDE technology, you get superior quality scans from an ultra-compact machine. It's sleek, stylish and incredibly easy to use, delivering impressive 36-bit color scanning at the push of a button. You can even program it to automatically print, e-mail or fax your scanned documents.Imagine faxing, copying or e-mailing your scanned documents at the push of a button. The CanoScan FB 620U makes it that easy. Simply select a function in the software window and press the scan button. Your scanner will scan your document and automatically send it to the desired destination, whether it's your printer, fax modem or e-mail program. And with its state-of-the-art USB interface, connection to your Windows 98 PC is as simple as plugging it in.The CanoScan FB620U seems barely bigger than the documents it scans. However, this little machine is packed with power--it makes high-quality scans of graphics, photos, line art, or text, and offers great imaging and optical character recognition (OCR) software for an incredibly low price.
To set up the CanoScan, we attached the cable to our PC, plugged in the AC adapter, dropped in the CD-ROM, and followed the setup wizard. (If you restart your computer before running the CanoScan's setup wizard, you can cancel the Windows New Hardware Installation wizard that runs automatically.) When following the setup wizard, make sure you indicate that you want to install the 620P, not the 320P whose drivers are also included on the same CD-ROM.
In our tests of the CanoScan, we first conducted preview scans of several documents and images just to get acquainted with the scanner. These preview scans and other low resolution scans (75 dpi) were fast and easy, but high-resolution scans were much slower. Still, the images were sharp and clear, and the final scans were comparable to those of much more expensive scanners.
If you're looking for an inexpensive, light-duty scanner that's easy to set up and learn, the CanoScan makes a fine choice.
Pros:
- Lightweight, small, and portable
- Easy setup
Cons:
- Slow scanning in high resolution
