Customer Reviews for Canon - CanoScan LiDE 400 Flatbed Scanner - Black
Posted by: Kim Messmer

Verified Purchase:Yes
I've set this up on two different computers and it does not work. It satisfactorily finishes installation, but when I try to do a test scan (less than one minute later), nothing happens except the message that tells me it can't connect to the scanner.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Linux

I bought this scanner because it has a linux driver. Unfortunately, the software that is provided for linux is rudimentary and does not meet the needs for basic office use.

Not compatible with Windows 10.

I bought the scanner with the hopes it would easily link up with Windows 10 but no such luck. Tried it with 4 different Windows 10 products and one product with Windows 8.1... wouldn't work with any of them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Bad Linux Support

Linux support is minimal and had to hack around greatly to compile it. Proprietry libs required even in the source code version. Used Ubuntu 18.04LTS. Works. No options beyond "scan size" being A4/Letter to Jpeg or PDF. No options for resolution. Scan button. Scan quality is fine, but expect a troublesome utility that when it does work, you'll be editing in Gimp or so to turn it into something useful.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
