The Canon imageFormula R40 balances speed, features, resolution, and price better than any other scanner on the market. It handles various document types, from receipts to photos and business cards. It also supports optical character recognition (OCR), which converts scanned documents into machine-readable, editable, and searchable content.
Hunter Fenollol, Test Editor for Popular Mechanics, put the imageFormula R40 through its paces, and says it performed better than the competition.
“It has other scanners beat in terms of speed, capacity, and overall digitization quality,” he says. “It’s a powerhouse that quickly works through up to 60 pages at a time and doesn’t choke on heavier paper, like our cardstock magazine cover photo. It also has the best-looking images of any of the models we tested, with colors that are truest to life.”
In addition to its 60-sheet automatic document feeder, the imageFormula R40 prints up to 40 pages per minute for scanning stacks of papers quickly. While it lacks a touchscreen interface and Wi-Fi support, the imageFormula R40 comes with excellent software and straightens images impressively.
