"Can
I have an affordable scanner for home use?"
The CanoScan LiDE 20 is an easy to use scanner that gives
you excellent, high resolution scans with consistent results
across the width of the page. LiDE (LED Indirect Exposure)
is Canon's own, advanced scanner technology. It provides
scans of up to 600 x 1200 dpi and 48 bit colour with very
low energy consumption - so low, in fact, that the LiDE
20 doesn't even need a power plug. It gets all the power
it needs from the USB connection.
Compact Stylish Design
Canon endeavour to produce high quality, yet compact and
stylishly designed products, and the CanoScan LiDE 20 is
no exception. The LiDE 20 measures just 256 x 383 x 34mm
and is finished with an attractive Ocean Blue coloured lid.
In addition, the LiDE 20 includes a scanner stand as a standard
accessory, enabling the user to store and scan with the
scanner on its side, providing the world’s smallest
installation footprint.
Single USB cable connection / No AC Adapter Required
Feel the ease of a simple connection with a single cord.
The CanoScan LiDE 20 uses a USB 2.0 Full Speed interface
cable to provide both data transfer and power to the scanner.
One Touch Scanning Experience
The CanoScan LiDE 20 includes three EZ scan buttons, ensuring
quick access to great features. The "Scan" button
saves the scanned image to file, "Copy" sends
your image to a printer for automatic output, and "Email"
saves the scanned file, as a specified file size, for attachment.
QARE v 2.0
QARE Technology (Quality Automatic Retouching and Enhancement)
version 2.0 is featured on the CanoScan LiDE 20. QARE removes
the minute dust and scratch on photographs using a software
based interpolation process to achieve retouching effects.
QARE version 2 has been enhanced, to improve the performance
of dust and scratch reduction whilst also incorporating
a function which reduces the noise level even further.
LiDE Technology
LIDE is Canon’s original and emblematic technology
“LED Indirect Exposure”. Essentially, LIDE allows
Canon's Notebook scanners to gain higher colour fidelity
and less distortion in image processing, whilst achieving
image quality that is superior to CCD scanners in their
class. LIDE also allows Canon's scanners to achieve lower
prices, greater reliability and a smaller footprint , because
there are less moving mechanical parts, and the CanoScan
scanners use lower power consumption.
LIDE gives the new CanoScan’s higher sensitivity
than conventional scanners, and is regarded, by industry
experts, as the next-generation of image sensor technology.
Multi-Photo Mode
The One Path Multi-Scan feature on the CanoScan LiDE 20
ensures faster scanning of multiple images than previously.
Historically, the more multiple images to be scanned, the
longer scanning will take, because images are scanned one
at a time. One Path Multi-Scan ensures that multiple images
are scanned collectively ensuring faster scanning operation
