Canon imageFORMULA R30 Document Scanner | Double-sided Scanning with USB for Home & Office | 60 Sheet Feeder | Easy Driverless Setup with Built-in Canon CaptureOnTouch Lite Software | Supports OCR

Very good product, fast scanning, and many software features.

Use this to scan invoices for our business. Lots of scan options. Works quick and scans both sides.I was worried it would have trouble feeding in, but this is working well.I can fill the feeder with about 30 at a time and it feeds without jamming.All good at this time.Probably scanned in over a thousand invoices so far.

On initial setup this worked intermittently only then stopped working altogether and kept getting an error code about the twain driver. On the internet I saw that lots of people had the same error code about the Twain driver. with little or no support from Canon and no solution available. I tried the manufacturers website and discovered the PDF manual. This was not provided with the scanner. On reading said manual I find that "The Twain driver supplied with this product supports scanning with 32 bit applications only and even with 32bit not all Twain compliant apps are guaranteed to operate." Not sure why Canon are selling this at all. Have to send it back. Even without this problem the online manual is hugely complicated.Replaced this by buying canon ix1400. Fabulously simple, easy to set up, a much better buy than the Fujitsu image formula R40.

Had a bigger Canon scanner previously but after 10 years it was getting a bit tired and emotional.Don’t do as much scanning as I used to so went for this instead. Incredibly easy to use but not as robust as my previous machine. Will probably serve me well but if you do a lot of scanning I’d recommend going for a bigger Canon

Happy with this little machine. I bought it for the compactness and it is very small and easy to store. Scans are good and the OCR feature works well.Sometimes it doesn't pull in the last page when you scan a batch of paper but it is easy to append more pages to a document. Really happy

The wrong mains lead was supplied.I wanted to use the scanner for scanning photos but I could not any decent results and was not sure the scanner was responding to option changes I made. There is no specific Photo setting.The software and manuals were difficult to follow, quite often different from the diagrams and pictures.

This scanner is very fast and simple to use. I use it as my own personal scanner next to my computer.

Excellent is almost every aspect except NOT 'sending to email' as an attachment. Will not recognise cloud based email ( eg Outlook New) so you will need to download and install a non cloud based email system for example just plain Outlook ( as part of Office 365) in order to send to email as an attachment. Took me 7 hrs and the help of Canon UK to work it out!
