Review on ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ Efficient Scanning with Canon CanoScan N1220U Scanner: A Comprehensive Review by Allen Hart

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exceeded all expectations

Great little scanner. And I mean little; The only thing I noticed was the small size of the device. In fact, I've taken it with me on a couple of trips. Besides the size, the fact that only one USB cable is required is a real boon. Power comes from the USB port, so I only needed one cable for power and signal. Very cool. And it worked great with both the Mac G4 Cube and the iceBooks I have. And despite what I've read, I found it really calm. Certainly a significant improvement over my old Microtek unit. Incredibly wearable, fairly durable, great pictures - it's just a real gem. The software is also simple and quite powerful. I like the ability to start scanning by pressing a button on the scanner OR from the software. It's hardware integration that works! With Photoshop LE enabled, I was able to tinker with some photos and get great results. The included OCR software is fine, but given its limited accuracy, I find I'm better off (read that it runs faster with less of my involvement) simply quickly scanning class notes and saving them in this format. I knew my old scanner was long gone, but I'm pleasantly pleased with how much things have improved. I highly recommend this scanner.

Pros
  • Solid build
Cons
  • Hard to say
