Nice physical scanner .. software is too complex and not intuitive… my hp scanner software from 20 years ago is straight forward and seems to be superior and simpler to use
So far, so good! I have just had the scanner for a few weeks, but it was easy to set up, and is working great. We have always had CanoScan scanners and I've used them for scanning all the artwork in multiple books I've written/illustrated.
Hate I bought it. No longer a fan of Canon products.

Poor product. Ridiculous setup procedures. My fault I did not know it does not support Bluetooth which is weird for this day and age. Also, to sensitive to movement since the instruction warn you about handling the device.
I bought and it never worked at all. The scanner never had power and I couldn't find a replacement cord. I will try to return to Cannon since missed Amazons return window.
It's ok. More cheaply built than my CanoScan 8800F. And, not apparently as easy to use. There is not a single, thorough instruction booklet on the Canon website in PDF form so had to download info, page-by-page, and assemble. A truly thankless job!
I got it, followed the instructions to hook it up to my iMac with one exception I did not load the Canon software as I use VueScan. It works great with VueScan. If you have trouble with the Canon software try out VueScan.
