I've had this scanner for a number of years and it does exactly what I bought it for - an inexpensive portable scanner for when I want to scan books from the library or at an office desk where I'm a bit odd Reason, there is no scanner or anything when I'm not working at my main workstation. And it does a great job as a grab-and-go scanner! It fits in a backpack, is powered by a single USB cable, and runs plug-and-play on Windows. Macs can be a bit temperamental, but installing the latest driver from Canon's website fixed most of my instability issues. Archiving/playback options with little to no adjustment (scan quality is decent, but I need to tweak it in Photoshop for design purposes), or when a screeching scanner annoys your cabmate for maybe 45 seconds (not the quietest or fastest scanner I've used ). ). Mainly because a cheap scanner has to cut corners SOMEWHERE, and while I wouldn't call it flimsy, it's clearly consumer quality, not prosumer or professional quality.
