No Warm-Up / Low Energy Usage
Thanks to the high luminance white LED light source, the unit is ready to scan whenever you are, with zero warm-up time. Plus, the advanced LED light source quickly switches to standby mode after scanning, saving energy.
High-Quality Imaging
The CCD scanning element produces high-quality 4800-dpi scans, and is the same CCD technology found in digital cameras.
Push-Button Simplicity
Seven EZ Buttons let you do what you want with your original. So, scan it in color or B&W. Scan and save it, or copy it (sending a scanned image to your printer). Create a PDF of a multi-page original, customize your own settings, or for the ultimate in simplicity, just press the "Scan" button and let the CS5600F take care of everything. Whichever button you press, the process is simple.
Smart Scanning
The new Auto Scan feature makes scanning anything even easier than before. It actually detects the type of original youre scanning whether its a photo, business card, personal notebook or form then automatically scans, processes and saves the image in the appropriate format. All at the press of just one button.

- Good scanning solutionCanon 2925B002 CS5600F Color Image Scanner
Admittedly, I can't compare this scanner to any other standalong scanner (such as the Canon 8800) because I've never used the 8800, but I can compare this with the scanners that are part of fax machines or all-in-one printers. This is far superior in scan quality, convenience and speed. I also like the ability to expand the cover hinge to accommodate books. The OCR works well, too.
Still, I was confused whether to get this one, which ... Read More

- Thumbs downIf you have in mind the scanning of documents into text files that can be edited, forget about Canon. According to their tech support, Canon doesn't include OCR into text files on any of their scanners. I've shipped the CanoScan 5600F back to Amazon for a refund and will look for another manufacturer for the kind of scanner I need. This is a huge disappointment: OCR to text files has been around for 25 years, has improved over time, and it ought to be a standard on any and all scanners. Anyone who's ... Read More
