[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the Canon imageFORMULA R50 Office Document Scanner to save some time in my work day. It has been a huge time saver because I can scan multiple types of paper documents into a searchable digital files. Now I don't have papers everywhere, it's all organized nice and neat. I would definitely recommend it to family and friends.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Canon R50 desktop scanner is a very robust, easy to use scanner. Packaged well and easy to get setup and ready to go. The instructions were short and to the point. I like that I didn't have to read a book to get this setup. I have setup and worked with a LOT of desktop scanners of various brands and this is by far the easiest scanner I have ever configured. Navigate to site included in instructions, download software, install, power on, select interface and you are ready to scan. I elected for the WIFI option as this is the most convenient option. However, the USB option was equally as easy to use if needed. The software walks you through the wireless setup as well as the large touch screen on the device. The CaptureOnTouchv4 software was very intuitive and easy to use out of the box with a couple preconfigured single/double sided options. A visible edit button allows you to edit the default options or you can quickly add a new button option. New button option offers a custom option or you can copy the built in options. The quick edit settings allow for most of the basic options you would need as far as single/double, DPI, skew correction and automatic detection options. There is an advanced section that has more options than I have ever needed when scanning documents. If you expand the left hand pane, you can adjust the output options such as scan to email, cloud drive options, local storage, and plenty more. This scanner is very fast on the 200dpi settings and you can really churn through a lot of documents with the 60 page capacity. Even the 600dpi setting is faster than I expected it to be. Overall, this is a fantastic product that offers a great setup experience, large touchscreen, and plenty of features.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I own my own business and I struggle to keep up with all the paperwork - not to mention how much room it takes up! I was impressed with what this document scanner offered, but was pretty intimidated at the same time because I am not too computer savvy. First of all, this scanner is pretty small considering what all it does- it easily fits on my office counter with room to spare, which is great. It looks slick and fits in nicely. Everything that is needed comes in the box- AC adapter, USB cord, power cable as well as the setup guide. The setup guide was amazing for me- it was easy to read and covers everything you could image. If I can set this bad boy up, anyone can! You literally just plug the scanner in, download the software, load your documents and voila'- you are done! Easy peasy! Paper documents are loaded in the top and can be aligned to fit your specific size paper if needed- you can even upload business cards! Everything scans quickly and ends up in the eject tray below and uploaded to your computer. Genius I love this scanner and I am so thankful to have found this for my business! I love the size, quality and ease of use- I have completely uploaded all of my business documents in just a few days - when I had extra time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing does lots! I can scan to image, email, or make a pdf. I love this almighty machine. Cannon knows their stuff! The picture quality is far more better then others. I don't have to worry about streaking either. Thanks cannon!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this scanner so I could scan pictures much faster. I love how I can just run a stack through the scanner and it creates a beautiful scan that I can share to others. I can't wait to find other things to scan!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got this imageFORMULA R50 Office Document Scanner to scan all of my parents, inlaws and my paperwork and make it all digital. We are all downsizing out homes and we dont want to take file cabinets with us and we wanted everything in a cloud. This Cannon USA document scanner works just perfect for that! This machine is time saver. Set up is easy with WI-fi or a USB. Works with Windows or Mac. Has a large color touch screen. This does single pass double sided scanning. I am very happy with this and am having fun.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Image Formula R 50 is a sheet fed desktop document scanner with well designed software. It scanned 20 pages front to back in ten seconds. It uses Wi-fi and Wi-fi direct.The only con I see the lack of ethernet support
