This is a review of the Canon Scan-tini P-215. Note: Because Amazon allows me to edit reviews, I'll post my problems and later I'll update with the resolutions.Problem 1: I'm having intermittent connection problems with the provided USB data cable. Out of the 20 or so USB ports on various computers available to me, I find that the Canon USB cable with its USB 3.0 (type A male) connector needs to be jiggled or physically supported in order to maintain connection in about 4 ports of two different computers: One is a laptop and one is a desktop. Both computers have absolutely no connection troubles with other USB devices. I've called Canon. They're sending me a replacement cable. I'll post an update after it gets here.PROBLEM 1 UPDATE: The replacement USB 3.0 cable came yesterday via FedEx Priority Overnight. It fixed the intermittent disconnect troubles that I was having. With the new cable, I can reliably connect to every USB port. I can't determine the point of failure in the original cable even using a 10x loupe so I presume it's an internal wiring defect. I'm not going to investigate that problem any further. It works. I'm happy.Problem 2: In order for this Canon P-215 to scan long papers (like longer than 14 inches up to its 39 inches max size), you've got to fire up a little software utility to make a settings change in the scanner hardware. This little utility has to be installed on a computer. It isn't available through the software on the scanner's built-in flash drive. This little utility couldn't find the scanner through my main desktop computer. It was only after I drilled down through Canon available drivers and utilities that I found their little "fix" for this problem. If you have the same problem, look for the "RepairReg.exe" file at the Canon site. After I took a chance that it wouldn't obliterate my Windows Registry, the Canon long-page setting utility was finally functional and it found my scanner. All seems to be okay now. My Windows 7 Registry seems to have suffered no ill effects. Also, the utility titled "Canon imageFORMULA Utility" finds my scanner and I can change the long page enabler and I can read the life of the roller and pads.Now on with the review:For small papers like point of sale (POS) receipts and cancelled checks and business cards, it seems scanner choices on the market are quite limited. Best I can tell only Fujitsu and Canon scanners can do those little cash register receipts and such that are only about 2.5 inches wide. (The current user manual specifies 2.0 inches as a minimum width capability.)It seems Fujitsu forces propietary drivers that restrict compression to their own lossy scheme and they only license the driver for one computer based on what I read at the Fujitsu web site. Those two aspects disapointed me about the Fujitsu scanners. I don't want to have to decompress the lossy Fujitsu files in order to feed the digital files to my own chosen software application. I also don't want to be limited to just one computer. In my mind, if I pay $250 or more for a scanner, it's insulting to be told I can't use it on all the computers that I own. (I might also want to lend my scanner to my wife if she's really good to me.)Canon on the other hand, provides a universal TWAIN driver so that an unadulterated stream of digital bits can be fed from the Canon to a computer. I like that idea better. That allows me to choose the software application that will do the compression and aggregation of my digital files and the compression only has to be performed one time. It also lets me use the Canon on any Windows computer I want.This P-215 has a built-in "flash drive" containing a light version of the Canon "On Touch" application. So, you don't even need to install software on a Windows computer in order to use the scanner. It will scan and compress into jpeg, tiff, or pdf. Or, it will feed an uncompressed tiff or bmp to your chosen directory. It will create searchable pdf's as well. So, not only can you use it on any Windows computer you want, but you can use it without installing any software. I have to admit its faster than I expected it to be working from its built-in flash drive application.Canon also provides Nuance ScanSoft PaperPort 11. It installed on on all my Windows computers here at home. It seems to work well. You can let it do the compression and aggregation. (I use the term "aggregation" to mean assembling multiple pages into a pdf or milti-page tiff file). I am guessing that full fledged computer software can do compression better than that which is on the Canon's flash drive. In my search for best compression, I'm setting aside money to get Adobe's Acrobat. It's going to be a while before I can afford it. I want to compare compression of Canon's OnTouch, Nuance PaperPort, and Adobe Acrobat. I want the best compression I can muster so my archives are as small as possible. I'm a poor man who can only afford free o

If you're looking at the Canon P-215, there's a good chance you're also looking at the Fujitsu S1300. There's also a good chance you've read many glowing reviews of both. So which do you choose?I own both the P-215 and the S1300, and I can vouch that both are excellent products. I'd go so far as to say they've changed my life because I work with a ton of paper and don't have a ton of space. Here are my recommendations. If only one of these statements applies to you, or all the statements that apply to you point toward the same scanner, then your choice is easy. If more than one statement applies to you and points you toward different scanners, then it's a bit trickier.1a. You don't have a program that will organize and modify PDFs. WINNER: Fujitsu. The software that comes with the Canon is horrible, whereas the Fujitsu provides a nice file manager program.1b. You want to do OCR but don't have a good OCR program such as Adobe Acrobat. WINNER: Fujitsu. As mentioned above, the software that comes with the Canon is horrible, whereas the Fujitsu provides a nice OCR program. More on the horrible Canon software later.2a. You scan a lot of business cards and don't need/want OCR for those cards. WINNER: Canon. It has a great little slot just for business cards.2b. You scan a lot of business cards and need/want OCR for those cards. WINNER: Fujitsu. See 1b.3a. You have a USB 3.0 port that is free for you to plug your scanner into. WINNER: Canon. If you have a USB 3.0 port, then just plug one of the USB cords into the scanner, and you can do high-speed scanning.3b. You have a free outlet on your power strip/wall and only one free USB port (2.0) on your computer. WINNER: Fujitsu. The Canon doesn't come with a power adapter. You have to buy that separately. You can scan with just one free USB 2.0 port with the Canon, but it's slow.3c. You have two free USB ports (2.0) on your computer and no free outlets on your power strip/wall. WINNER: Canon. You can do high-speed scanning by plugging into both USB 2.0 ports. You don't need a power adapter and don't have one unless you buy it separately.3d. You have one free USB (2.0) port on your computer and no free outlets on your power strip/wall. WINNER: Canon. The scanning will be slow, but you still can scan with just one USB 2.0 port. If you don't have a free outlet, you can't scan at all with the Fujitsu.3e. You're in a situation in which you're on a laptop but don't have the laptop charger, but you do have an extra outlet. WINNER: Fujitsu. The Canon will eat up all your laptop battery because it's not getting power from anywhere else.4. You want to scan a stack of legal-size paper or heavier paper. WINNER: Fujitsu. The pull-out easel--I don't know if that's the term--on the Canon is way flimsy, and legal paper doesn't go in as straight as it does with the Fujitsu.5. You want to travel a lot with this scanner. WINNER: Canon. The Canon is smaller and more portable. Note, however, that when the easel is pulled out, the footprint on the desk is about the same because the easel stands up straighter on the Fujitsu.6. You want a scanner that will last. WINNER: Fujitsu at least ties with Canon and may be better. I haven't used the Canon enough to test its durability, but I've scanned well over 15,000 pages on the Fujitsu, and it's still going strong. It's not like I've been particularly careful with the Fujitsu; many times I've accidentally forgotten to pull out staples, have yanked the paper halfway through a scan after realizing that I wasn't supposed to scan it, etc. Perhaps the Canon is just as durable, but if you don't want to take that risk, then I recommend the Fujitsu.So that's a decision guide. Since this review is of the Canon scanner, here are some additional comments about it. I have Windows 7.First, I strongly recommend reading both the User's Manual printed in the box and the Reference Guide on the Canon website. I find it odd that they give you a printed copy of one but not the other, considering that the Reference Guide is just as important, if not more so, than the User's Manual. I don't find either manual particularly clearly written, though.As I mentioned above, the Canon software is horrible. If you want to install the software, do a System Restore first because you may regret the software installation; I did. I ended up removing all the software because it was such a pain in the butt. The Caputure OnTouch software didn't detect when I plugged in the scanner, nor when I pressed the button. The PaperPort program is not only confusing but annoying. You're bugged to register with the software company every single time. There's no option for it to stop bugging you. The software sets itself to Auto Start. It tried to auto-update but failed.Instead, use the software that's stored in the scanner itself. It's described confusingly in the manual; it's actually much simpler. When you plug in the scanner and turn it on, it'll show up as a drive called ONTOUCHLITE. Open the f

The imageFORMULA P-215 scanner is a compact, portable scanner which is easy to use and produces impressive scans for its size. In addition to the main document feed is a business card slot that can scan both sides of a business card. Through some clever design, the scanner incorporates a document feed tray that can hold multiple documents. I never had a problem with the feed jamming, but I was only loading a few pages at a time. The only downside to the design is that there isnt an option to catch the documents at the other end of the scanner once they have been fed through.The scanner requires two USB 2 ports or one USB 3 port. So clearly, using the scanner with USB 3 ports is advantageous if you only have a few ports available as you would if you were using a laptop. Non powered USB ports are not supported. Using a the ports of a powered USB hub is not guaranteed to work. An AC cord for the scanner is available for purchase, but is not included with the scanner.The scanner has a one year warranty, but along with the scanner packaging you will find an offer for eCarePAK - a service plan including parts and labor, access to technical support and exchange or onsite service. I did not purchase the service plan and so I can not comment on that.In terms of setup, Canon has given two options. The first option which is a very good idea is that drivers do not need to be installed on the computer to which the scanner is connected. This would be a very good option if you moved the scanner from computer to computer during the course of its use and didnt want to have to install the drivers on each computer. The instructions indicated that the Auto Start button on the scanner should be switched on. Then the scanner just needs to be plugged into the computer and Auto Start should work. Except I found that it didnt. I also tried importing from the scanner using Photoshop CS6, but the scanner was not recognized as a scanner. The solution in this case was to browse on my laptop to "my computer", find the scanner, open the scanner folder and to click on an executable that I found in the folder. This started CaptureOnTouch Lite. After that, scanning was easy and the pages were saved as PDF files in the directory of my choosing.I had no trouble with the scanner once I loaded the drivers and software to my laptop. Loading the drivers onto your computer gives you more options for scanning than the CaptureOnTouch Lite program. The software included is:WindowsISIS & TWAIN DriverCapture OnTouchPaperPort - document management softwarePresto BizCard - converts information on business cards into searchable dataEvernoteMACTWAIN driverCapture ONTouchPage ManagerBizCardI think that the business card scanner and application would be absolutely brilliant if only they worked better. Who doesnt have a stack of cards of one sort or another. I have a stack on my desk and I sometimes need to dig through it when I am looking for an obscure contact detail that isnt filed elsewhere. You put the card into the special card slot, the scanner scans both sides and the data is added to your electronic database which is portable and replaces the cards. However, in practice I found that once the scan was made, the Bizcard software failed to automatically fill the data fields correctly most of the time. I did like that the software kept an image of the front and back scans of the card so that you at least had that. But, I found myself manually correcting errors on almost every card. At that rate, I could have entered the data into my electronic address book without needing to proofread and correct so many data fields.The small size is great if you need to carry a scanner around with you. I could see this scanner being very useful to someone who travels to meetings and is willing to trade the size and the weight of the scanner in return for cutting back on the number of documents that must be carried home once they are scanned. However, for most people, the imageFORMULA P-215 would be an easily portable scanner that can be transported from place to place as needed.Overall, a compact scanner that works very well. Maybe not as good as a larger scanner in terms of options and features, but very impressive for its size.

After testing out the P-215 Portable Document Scanner in a variety of settings, here are my comments, in no particular order:INSIDE THE BOX ARE:- Scanner P-215- USB cable- USB power supply cable- Installation DVD- Reference Guide and other paperworkPROs:- Easy, straight-forward installation; just make sure to install the software before connecting the scanner.- Small footprint and light weight: This scanner is small and light-weight enough to fit into a briefcase or even a large women's purse.- Build quality is good, and the scanner feels solid.- TWAIN compatibility.- Fast: After playing around with the software settings, I found that the automatic setting (where the software automatically picks the dpi setting) is extremely fast and puts my big flatbed Canon scanner to shame. I almost could not believe my eyes how fast a regular sheet of paper (text only) went through. The speed slows considerably when scanning at higher resolutions (up to 600 dpi is possible) but a regular document scan takes no time at all. And even at the high dpi settings it is still not slow-slow, just slow-er...- Paper Sizes: The scanner, for all its small size, accommodates quite a wide range of paper widths, up to letter size width. I especially liked the fact that it had no problem with small sheets of paper. I was able to scan a paper ticket which was only 3 1/2 x 2 1/2".- Scan quality is quite good but note that no software is included to fine-tune scanned images afterwards. But since most people use Photoshop or similar software anyway, this is not a huge problem if any.- Multiple sheet capacity, up to 20 sheets can be put into the feeder, a significant time saver compared to scanners that allow only one or a few sheets at a time.- Duplex scanning ability: Easily my favorite feature of this scanner. This allows me to scan the two sides of a sheet of paper in one step, no need to turn the sheet around and scan a second time. There is even a software setting that helps to prevent or at least weaken the "see-through" effect one occasionally encounters when writing bleeds through and can be seen from the backside. Very clever.CONs:- Versatility: I installed the software on a 2009 Dell desktop computer and a 2008 Dell XPS M1330 and everything worked fine. However, installing it onto a 2010 ASUS Netbook 1015PEB got me nowhere. The netbook simply did not supply enough power to operate the scanner and I got a consistent "Device Not Found" error. Which brings me to my second point:- Separate A/C Adapter: I really dislike the fact that Canon did not include an A/C adapter. The price of this scanner is not bargain basement and forcing the consumer to buy an A/C adapter separately looks certainly a bit cheap, especially in light of the portability factor. I regularly travel overseas and intend to take this scanner with me on the road. To keep my load as light as possible, I usually travel with my netbook rather than the bigger laptop. But the scanner does not work with the netbook out of the box and requires the A/C adapter which I now need to buy separately unless I want to lug the much bigger and heavier laptop around with me. Not to mention that this adapter is not exactly cheap and runs at around $30 at the time of this review.- Slightly uneven paper feed: The paper was pulled through the feeder slightly unevenly, with a stronger pull on the right. This held true for both large sheets of paper (letter size) as well as card size paper (using the separate slot on the right). This is a rather minor point because the paper guides do help, even though I found it a bit difficult to adjust them perfectly to counteract this behavior.SUMMARY:I would love this scanner if it weren't for the A/C adapter issue. I suppose Canon figures that it would work out of the box with most computers/notebooks and so they decided to not include the adapter. Nonetheless, it doesn't work for me and my preferred road gear... This is where my one-star deduction comes from. Call me nit-picky.Finally, just to mention it: This scanner will not work with books or, let's say old 19th century carte de visite photographs which are too thick and stiff to go through the device. This is rather self-evident from the type of scanner this is, but I wanted to mention it anyway. I do genealogy as a hobby and while this will be great to scan letters and other documents, books and said photographs will either have to go on a flatbed scanner or need a wand-type scanner such as the VuPoint Solutions Magic Wand Portable Scanner (PDS ST415 WM).Overall I do like the P-215 a lot, and once I will have forgotten that I had to buy the A/C adapter separately, I am sure I will love it. :-)

<промежуток класс="">большой документ подачи сканера. Он достаточно компактный и хорошо продуман. Я не собираюсь использовать его много на ходу, но делает большое дополнение к планшетный сканер для всех тех листов А4, что вам нужно для сканирования. Это очень быстрая и пользовательских интерфейсов легко настроить для одно касание сканирования. Просто у меня он подключен через один кабель USB, кажется, прекрасно работать без дополнительного источника питания.

Those boxes of documents, love letters, photographs from both my wife's family and mine have weighed on my mind for almost 20 years. In fact, 15 years ago I ordered a Visioneer portable scanner with the intention of getting a load off my mind (and out of the attic). The device proved buggy, partially effective and extremely time-consuming, leading to my aborting the project and selling the scanner. But in the past several months, the regular television commercials for Neato portable scanners renewed my interest.After reading some of the reviews for Neato portables, I questioned whether the technology had advanced far since my first Visioneer. But before abandoning the project a second time I investigated other possibilities, with the following findings: You can spend several dollars on one of many scan "apps," designed to work with the camera of an iPhone or iPod (good for a couple of documents, maybe). In the 50-100 dollar price range you might pick up a Magic Wand (make sure your hands are steady and your patience long) VuPoint Solutions Magic Wand Portable Scanner (PDS-ST410-VP). In the 150 dollar price range there's a decent Brother personal scanner (looks good for occasional use and when on the go) Brother DSMobile Scanner (DS-600) and a wireless device called the Doxie (be sure to read consumer reviews as well as the maker's claims) Doxie, the amazing scanner for documents.Getting to devices for the more "serious" user, there are several reputable scanners in the two hundred dollar range, above all the Fujitsu Scansnap S1100 Fujitsu SCANSNAP S1100 CLR 600DPI USB Mobile Scanner (PA03610-B005) and the HP Scanjet 1000 HP Scanjet Professional 1000 Mobile Scanner (L2722A#BGJ). These deserve consideration from users who plan to move about and travel, taking the scanner with them on business trips, etc. But besides size and weight, be sure to to note the presence or absence of features like duplex printing, drivers, automatic feed.Once you're at the $200 mark, it's difficult not to notice what's available for an extra fifty to eighty dollars. The two scanners in this range that stand out--combining the convenience of a portable, USB-powered scanner with the features of a professional office machine--are the Fujitsu S1300 (Fujitsu is clearly the champ with Amazon purchasers) Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 Instant PDF Sheet-Fed Mobile Scanner (PA03603-B005) and the Canon P150 Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Portable Document Scanner(Scan-tini).But wait! There's also the pictured machine, the Canon P215, the newest offering and one which, though slow to be discovered by consumers, is gradually rising in Amazon's sales rankings (it's moved ahead of the Canon P150 in just the past week). Admittedly, the feature differences between the two Canons are almost as small as the price difference. Size and performance of the two machines are practically identical. The P215 is .2" wider and 2 oz. heavier. The P215 comes with "Advanced Text Enhancement," "Character Emphasis," and several user-adjustable color settings not advertised with the P150; it has a "dedicated" card reader (which accepts thick, laminated cards as well as paper biz cards); its high-speed interface includes USB 3.0 along with USB 2.0; finally, Mac users can be assured that it's "Lion-ready." In short, the P215 seems slightly more "future-proofed" than the P150.On to the showdown: Canon or Fujitsu? The Fujitsu S1300 accepts 10 sheets in auto-feed mode; the Canon P150 and P215 both accept up to 20 sheets ; the Canons have built-in Twain drivers for guaranteed out-of-the box plug-and-scan convenience; the Fujitsu does not. The Fujitsu includes an AC adapter; the Canons list it as an option. In sum, if I had any hesitation between the two brands, it was because of the Fujitsu's bundled OCR software program: the well-regarded ABBYY FineReader. But once I considered the two brands from a broader perspective, noting my satisfaction with my printer (Canon MP640) and camera (Canon SD780), the final decision became inevitable. ("PC Magazine," for one, seems to agree, rating it "best of breed.")

From the moment I opened up my Canon image FORMULA P-215 I was in absolute awe. Before going on, let me just state for the record that I am a "gadget guy" all the way and have an entire office full of sweet equipment, but as far as scanners go, this one really takes the cake.Here's my breakdown:Size:This thing is tiny! It sits about a little over an inch tall, three inches deep, and 11 inches wide. This can easily be plopped right into an attach? without adding any more bulk than a 300 page book. Miraculously, even though it is so small, it feels really well built and sturdy. And while we're talking about looks, even though I am a function over form guy, this think is darn right sexy. Can a scanner be sexy? If you see this thing in person, you'll see what I mean.Installation:This scanner does not even need to have any software installed to run on PC or Mac. I don't own a Mac, but on the PC I just plugged it in to my USB 3.0 port and a pop-up came, I clicked the scanner file (which is located WITHIN the scanner), and the software was up on my screen in less than half a minute. Next, I walked over to my wife's computer and plugged it in there with the dual USB 2.0 connection and it was up and running in the same amount of time. Although not necessary, this dual connection will allow you to scan at high-speed (like USB 3.0) on a USB 2.0 computer. In either configuration, there are NO POWER CORDS! This means that when you want to use it at work or at a client's location, you don't have to get on your knees to plug it in. Also note: this thing doesn't even have a power button! It just turns on when you open it up to scan! Brilliant!Software:When running the software built into the scanner, you can have it run in full-auto mode, or change all the settings to your liking. Settings include color mode, page size, DPI, skip blank pages, straighten skewed images, rotate to match text orientation, and even more if you want to use the advanced settings. You can also save the file in the following types: PDF, TIFF, JPG, PPTX (Powerpoint), or BMP. Also note that this scanner automatically uses OCR (optical character recognition) so that your PDFs are immediately searchable from within. ( In fact, in Windows you can download a small patch from Microsoft and make all your PDFs content searchable right from Windows Expolorer.)Performance:I scanned things like crazy to put this thing through the paces. The claim that it can scan a 20-page stack is indeed accurate. The scans look fantastic and the OCR was accurate as well.Comparison to my Fujitsu ScanSnap s1500This unit, which is approximately half the price of my Fujitsu, compares favorably to it in terms of ease of use and output. The only differences (for me) are that the Canon scanner is a tad slower and doesn't hold enough sheets. If I wasn't such a heavy scanner-user then I would definitely switch over to the Canon because of its small footprint, but as it stands, I will definitely be using this as my go-to travel scanner.Additional Software:This scanner also comes with CaptureOnTouch software, which is a more permanent solution for using this scanner as a desk scanner (as opposed to a portable on-location scanner). Also note that you can download the latest software/drivers from the Canon website including: ScanToEvernote, ScanToGoogle, and ScanToSharePoint.Final thought:All in all, this scanner gets my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION. It is a 5-star product in every way.

Great product, I love its small size and considerable speed. Everything is better than expected really, but I'll concentrate here on these tiny annoyances that surfaced on my watch.The first problem concerns the scanning software. What's annoying about it is that, though it will let you save in several file formats including PDF and JPG, you can't save a single scanning session more than once.Say you want to scan 100 pages out of a document, like an agenda. You'd like to have these pages in different date folders. So you save the document as 100 separate PDFs. However, for the sake of convenience and fast reference, you'd also like to have a single PDF containing all of your scanned documents.Well you can't do that. Once you have selected a file format, the software wipes the scans out of its working memory. If you want the same images in a second format as well, you'll need a special program to do the conversion and merging for you.Frankly, its just easier to do the scanning again and choose the second file layout on this second go.Secondly, the cancel button never works. If you're half way through a scan and press cancel, the software will stop saying that it is scanning and rather will declare it is canceling. But otherwise your plea is ignored and the document will continue its voyage through the scanner - even if a half-jam is haphazardly tearing it apart, which is common when you feed your machine something bizarre like a big sheet folded in half (for which the machine is not designed). Once the scan is completed, even after you've canceled it, you'll have the option to save the image, exactly as if you had never canceled. This renders the cancel button completely useless.Besides these two remarks, I repeat, I am very satisfied with this product and would buy again.

without installation i scanned using the built-in "capture on touch lite." i also installed the full blown "capture on touch" and scanned with it. they both work perfectly.however feeding in single sheets of paper one sheet at a time is a slight problem. often it does not "catch" and you have to give it a little tap to get it started. similarly, stuffing in multiple sheets of paper sometimes double-feeds two or more sheets at a time, especially if the sheets have been folded (to fit in an envelope.)i tried to scan a very long grocery bill and then i found a problem. you must put the scanner into "long document" mode. this cannot be done with the above-mentioned two programs (why not, i wonder?) but must be done with the "canon image formula utility".well when i loaded that program the P-215 scanner did NOT show up in the list of available scanners; in fact the list was blank. i removed & re-installed the drivers - no joy. i called canon support and after several simple shifts and changes with no success, they asked me to try installing the same drivers on a different computer since i happen to have 2 laptops running windows 7. but it did not work on the other laptop either.finally, at the end of that call, the canon support tech offered to mail me a replacement scanner -- which i received the next day, along with free return-postage for the original scanner. wow what great service! the new scanner had updated firmware and worked perfectly upon being plugged into the original computer with no other changes. the p-215 scanner showed up in the utility program and i selected it, and selected long document mode, and bob's your uncle. so be aware of this if you need to scan long docs.

I have used the P-215 for most of a day and I have to echo what many of the other reviewers are saying: Speed is very very impressive, especially for the small footprint. It does tend to pull a bit more from one side, causing the page images to be slightly tilted in many cases. This is not a huge deal for me, because during the OCR process in Acrobat, the page is automatically rotated anyway, alleviating much of that problem. Scan quality is excellent. It does miss grabbing onto the occasional next page, but this also isn't a showstopper, as again Acrobat can be configured to prompt for more pages, at which time I just reseat the current stock left in the feeder and continue. I won't spend a great deal of time on the features, as the other reviewers have done an excellent job covering them. I opted to use the software-installed Twain driver, so I can't comment on the built-in driverless option. In summary: for the money and portability, this is a very impressive product. Minor quibbles aside, I can't imagine anyone being disappointed.I also bought the power adapter which I think deserves a bit of clarification - it is the one for the P-150, and works just fine. Nowhere on that adapter page on Amazon could I find a reference to the fact that it works with the P-215, I just had to assume, since it was the only one listed, and was fortunately correct. The adapter product page should be updated to reflect this.EDIT: The soft case is not included in the package by default. You have to add it as part of your order at checkout per the instructions near the top of the page. I did not see this when I ordered mine - it may not have been "live" yet or I may simply have missed it. Thank you Northern European for pointing this out!!I've used the scanner quite a bit more since my original posting and am amazed by the power and quality you get in such a small package. I keep thinking that something this small shouldn't be handling page feeding as effortlessly as it does, but it keeps on impressing. I have a few older books that I've been wanting to convert to electronic documents, and I do notice that it has a bit of difficulty with the thicker covers. Since I also have a regular flatbed scanner, this isn't an issue for me either, as the page feeder and duplex scanning more than make up for having to scan 2 pages manually! Very happy.

I wanted to have a scanner to archive documents, reports, bills, etc. and eliminate paper storage for my home. I didn't need a super fancy business scanner, but I did want an ADF and duplex scanning.The obvious choices are the Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 Instant PDF Sheet-Fed Mobile Scanner (PA03603-B005) and these new Canon Scan-tini products (Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Portable Document Scanner(Scan-tini) and Canon imageFORMULA P-215 Portable Document Scanner (Scan-tini)). I read a lot of reviews for the various scanners from these two companies. The Fujitsu scanners are very well regarded in terms of hardware but their software is a little antiquated. The Canon software is supposedly a little better. I don't have the Fujitsu and only played with my new Canon P-215 briefly, so I don't know this for sure.I decided to go with the Canon P-215 instead of the Fujitsu S1300 because:* USB 3.0 (only P-215, not P-150), so can work optimally with just one cable connection* Comes with software for both Windows and Mac (again, only P-215 apparently)* Supports TWAIN driver compatibility* Better default app software (Windows)* Slightly larger ADF capacity (but quality is unclear based on reviews, thought it worked fine for my 2 tests so far)* Scan-tini products minic a flash drive when connected via USB, containing a mini version of their default app software, so you don't need to install any software at all -- Nice if you're using it on other computers while traveling* P-215 also has a cute card-size scanning slot, nice touchThe USB 3.0 feature implies to me newer (better?) hardware design. The TWAIN driver compatibility allows other programs to scan directly into them. And I like the option of using it with both Windows and Macs (we use both at home). Those are the biggest advantages for me.But the Canon scanners have these disadvantages:* They don't include other third-party software, i.e. ABBYY FineReader for ScanSnap 4.1 which sounds like it does some OCR of the scanned images. I found that the PDFs generated from Canon's default CaptureOnTouch app could search for some words but cut-and-paste of the text from a financial report was very garbled. I found the ABBYY FineReader 11 Professional Edition from a different retailer for a bit less and with a rebate, so I ordered it to perform proper OCR. I don't have it yet but tried the free trial, and its PDF was much smaller and had all the proper OCR recognition performed so cut-and-paste worked very well.* Fujitsu scanning hardware sounds like it may be the best* Scan-tini scanners don't come with the AC adapter (optional accessory)

Like many others I was in between purchasing the Fujistu s1300i and this Canon P-215. I was able to score a good deal with the Canon and I liked the idea of having the card scanner built-in so decided to give it a try. VERY GLAD I did! This thing handles anything you throw at it and the scans are quick and look great. The software works flawlessly with my Mac. I'm actually using Eaglefiler to scan into and it works like a champ (No need to pay the high prices for Neat Re__ipts). I like how portable this unit is although I didn't purchase it for that reason it is nice to save some desk space. When you open the lid it instantly connects and lights up and is ready for action. I would not hesitate to recommend this to a friend.My only one issue was the first unit I had seemed to have some issues with the roller feeding the paper on single sheets. I kept having a few misfeeds so since I was within my return window I requested a replacement and the new unit works great with no feed issues. I'm sure like most electronics you can receive one that doesn't quite work right.Pros: Quick scanning speeds, can handle lots of documents, card reader and small compact size. I forgot to mention I currently have it plugged into both USB ports but have not tested the speed with only using one. I have read from others that the difference cannot be noticed in speed (due to the fact that it does not come with a power supply). Don't hesitate on this fantastic scanner.

I got this scanner to scan paper logs that take a lot of abuse (handled by many people over the course of a month, contain stickers, 3 hole punched). Previously I'd lugged around an Epson GT-S50 once a month, but it wasn't really portable and had trouble with the document feed. I ended up hand feeding each page to the Epson (typically it worked well with cleaner documents). My expectations were low for this scanner since it is so small, but I used it today for the first time and it readily scanner around 20 pages at a time. The document supports are pretty clever with the way they slide out. Even the software provided by Canon was easy to use. I hit the scan now button thinking it was the power button, and was pleasantly surprised by how functional and easy to use the software was (I had planned to scan using Adobe Acrobat Pro since manufacturer provided scanning software is often not well designed). With the Canon software it was easy to keep adding another batch of documents to the same scanning job. If you need a fast, good quality, portable scanner this should do the job.This order came with the free case, which has room for the cords and also a power plug so you can plug the 2nd USB cord into the wall if you want wall power (I've only scanned running from USB power, which has not been a problem).

Excepting 2 quirks.... I think this is a great scanner. Scanning to PDF's is awesome. There are 6V 1000ma AC/DC adapters that can be purchased for about $15 if you look around. Included software aps seems to work as they should. It is a ***** product package of hardware and integrated software.Quirk 1: I had a problem installing the software/driver etc. I disabled UAC and tried again. The install went smoothly. Suggest you do same.Quirk 2: The scanner scans both sides simultaneously. That's great for performance. You can tweak settings in attempt to eliminate blank pages, and it does a pretty good job. However, it's not perfect and occasionally bleed thru will include an unwanted page. This would be OK if you when looking at the image snippits at the top of the 'on touch' screen it would allow you to choose and delete an unwanted page. This one shortcomming is (I think) serious that I hope gets fixed in a revision and free upgrade. Hard to believe that feature is missing when Canon knows you cannot eliminate unwanted pages 100% of the time.Otherwise.... I'm very happy!

I have owned scanners since the days of $800 300dpi SCSI scanners that were the size of a stack of pizza boxes. The P-215 is a small, compact gadget that scans color duplex at high quality.The scanner is amazingly small for what it does.It sort of resembles a hardcover book - though not as wide. It is transformer like, the way it unfolds and opens up into a paper feeding machine. Amazingly, for a scanner so small, it scans duplex. To make the total package size even more compact and convenient, it does not come with a power adapter, but rather two USB cords to plug into a computer. It draws all of its power from USB.While the hardware is top notch, the software is very good, but has a few rough edges. There are two main scanning modes, that corresponds to a switch in the back confusingly named AutoStart On/Off. Canon must have received lots of feedback on this issue, as they now include a note taped to the scanner altering the user to this issue.Getting started is easy - In AutoStart mode, no software is installed on the computer. This allows the scanner to be used with virtually any machine, Mac or PC. AutoStart mode "off" requires to the use to install software from a disk. The Mac version installed without a hitch on my computer. The software provides a wider number of scanning and saving formats.In the fully automatic mode, the scanner is one touch and creates a black and white or color scanner depending on the image being scanned. It can straighten crooked scans and even skip blank pages. When you perform a scan it even automatically OCRs the document - which means you can search by text.Overall it is an excellent little scanner.Another small issue is the requirement that the scanner be plugged directly into the computer, and not through a hub. If you are like me, you'll have to unplug something else to make room for the scanner. Only the data USB needs to be plugged into the computer, and the 2nd power cable can be plugged into a powered USB hub.If you're looking to do some document scanning, I can highly recommend this versatile little scanner.

Coming from an all-in-one (AIO) printer/scanner, this sheet scanner is fast, efficient, and convenient. I scans both sides at once and will automatically detect if it's single sided so it doesn't give you a bunch of blank pages. It's much quicker with the 20-sheet feeder when compared to me flipping/changing pages on my AIO. It's weight feels dense, yet this typically is what a solid product feels like. Doesn't feel plasticky and flimsy.The setup is really quick and has it's own image application or TWAIN driver straight to applications like Acrobat. There is an optional second cord to plug in for power allegedly to add speed to the scans. I have not tested this as the single cord to the USB was pretty quick for my uses. There is also a card scanner where you can pop it in. It will suck it and spit it back out while scanning it.I've seen hospitals and other places use a Fujitsu scanner (size of a standard toaster). And it seems to work quickly in capturing an image. But the Scan-tini has the added benefit of portability and size.What I don't like about it...nothing really from my personal use. This doesn't scan books. That's what the flatbed AIO is for. But for sheets, I highly recommend this.

I bought this to replace my Scansnap 1300. THe Scansnap is good, but has no TWAIN drivers to work with common software like Quicken, Paperport, etc.- which means you have to use their software that's bundled with Scansnap. I found this to be very inconvenient.This one is also built for using USB 3.0 and comes with 2 USB cables. Have it installed in my USB 3.0 port and I can honestly say it sans almost 3 times faster. TWAIN drivers make it accessable to common scanning software and graphics software that has the TWAIN interface to accept scanned images directly. The only caveat is it doesn't come with a power adapter (need to purchase separately), but if you have a second USB available for power, you won't need it. The quality of the scans is great and it scans in duplex mode so you don't have to flip pages over to continue scanning. I bought this to clear out my files of excess paper and this scanner will fit that need nicely.

For 2 years I have used Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 Instant PDF Sheet-Fed Mobile Scanner (PA03603-B005) which has worked really well - is speedy, rarely jams and software works smoothly. The only downside: software is not TWAIN compliant, so you cannot scan from inside other Windows programs.This Canon P-215 works well. On Mac the software started automatically but on Windows I had to click on USB drive image capture application icon to get it started. You can name the files yourself or have it automatically name them based on date; and you can choose the location where it saves. Scanned files can be in a variety of formats - PDF, JPEG, TIFF. And so far there has been no document jam, although cards do jam unless carefully inserted straight in.Compared to Fujitsu S1300, the strongest plus is the ability to scan plastic cards - like credit, insurance, driver's license etc. Dedicated card scan slot in front is very nice. I have been using WorldoScan 600 from PenPower for card scanning but their software is very glitchy compared to Canon. TWAIN compliance and USB 3.0 compatibility are other benefits of this Canon scanner.The three big disadvantages of Canon P-215: cost, lack of AC adapter and software that does not work not as smoothly with Paperport. Although it comes with Paperport 11, I could not get Canon to scan from inside the Paperport. Auto ON/OFF switch is very confusing and introduces unnecessary complexity. I cannot believe that Canon is asking for three hundred bucks for this scanner and they cannot give you a ten buck AC adapter!Bottom line: If you need the ability to scan plastic cards or TWAIN compliance and have two USB ports, go for Canon P-215. Otherwise Fujitsu ScanSnap S1300 Instant PDF Sheet-Fed Mobile Scanner (PA03603-B005) is less expensive and comes with an AC adapter and needs only one USB port.

I've had this Canon P-215 for half a year, ever since its predecessor P-150 broke down after very light use. I use the scanner maybe once a week or less, and usually just a couple of pages at a time. This has probably less than 100 pages scanned, and it is already breaking down; most of the scans end up in some sort of error: what prompted me to write this is I just spent 30 minutes trying to scan a four page contract, and it keeps telling me about a paper jam (the papers don't jam, it just quits scanning after second or third page). Neither of the scanners had no external reason to break down, the office is very clean and there is no dust or anything. When the first one broke down, I put it down to bad luck. Now I call it bad quality.

The little fellow for the money can't be beat. It was a easy setup on the fly which means you can plug the USB-2 or higher in any computer/laptop and it's ready to go. The included software is a plus for your main computer but not a must on other devices. The scanning quality is good and the multi scan feature is a plus for a portable scanner. Some ppl complain about a cord not included but if you have USB-3, you don't need it because it provides the same power as an AC outlet to the unit. I had consider one by Brother whom I have had great experiences with their printers but I am glad I settle with the Canon.

Got here in a timely manner as always from Amazon.I mostly use this on my desktop for normal scanner of all documents for personal use. the feeder works really well and double side scanning is great. I have not used the software that comes with it on the CD as the internal software works just fine for my needs. Sometimes I have a little trouble scanning very small thin receipts but them almost always slide on through and the software corrects the image it is not completely straight.The really nice thing is you can pack it up and take it with you in the carry case I got in the deal when I purchased this wonderful scanner.It will not work with VueScan but does really need it as the interface is imbedded in the scanner and shows up as soon as you plug it into the USB port.I have not had to use the extra power cable and has worked fine from the power supplied by the USB cable.
