Pain-enducing scanner
This scanner will break your heart. It is made out of such flimsy plastic that any untoward pressure on it will cause it to seize up. For 80% of scans the moving scanning part will get stuck and seize up as it reaches the 66% mark on the screen surface. I use this scanner for scanning my handwritten notebooks. The only way to do this is to rip the pages out and scan each sheet separately as the weight of any notebook or book will cause the scanner to get stuck two thirds of the way through. But even that is no guarantee to problem free scanning. So I recently took to using smaller notebooks so that I would use less surface area of the screen and thereby avoid the dreaded 2/3 area where it gets caught. This worked well for a while, using only the latter half of the screen, till recently it started seizing up even in this half of the screen. The only way now to make a complete scan is to hold one end of the scanner up while the scanner is going down the screen, so as to allow the plastic wheel mechanism not to get caught as it routinely does, and then quickly adjust to tilt it up at the other end as the wheel makes its way back up the screen. So you get exercise while you scan! True this is a cheap scanner but I would recommend you throw your out the window over buying it as that way you will save yourself a whole lot of grief in attempting to perform a simple task, such as scanning a sheet of paper, that is way beyond this piece of plastic's ability. I would never buy Canon again after this. Any recommendations for a light-weight but functional document scanner?

Great scanner for the price
This scanner is everything I need. I have so many negatives that have never been developed so with this it makes it easy for me to scan them and print out the photos. The only downside I found was that when scanning black and white developed negatives (like the kind you can develop yourself and not the color developed black and white negatives) the black and white is more of a brown and white. Other than that I love this scanner.
