Installation was straight forward.Instructions are easy to read & understand.This unit includes a USB connector.The unit looks good and is feels like it is solidly built.Using Capture Perfect 3.0 (comes with software bundle), scanned multiple page document(s) to pdf.file without paper jamms. Scanning is very fast and accurate. Multiple choices of output (printer,email).This unit is being tested in a small/medium office enviroment. Unit is used mainly to scan contracts for digital filing.We are pleased with this product.

This is the best scanner I have had, others were a Visioneer (junk) and an HP4500. This is so far superior to the HP scanner there is no comparison speed wise, image wish and software wise. To date I have had no problems with paper jams and have scanned up to 50pages at a time. The HP is average at best and not worth your money, this one is.

If all you want to do is scan the odd document and photo, the DR-1210C certainly isn't for you. Epson's Perfection 3490 Photo scanner costs just £50 and offers equivalent scan quality, as well as a superior experience for photo scanning. But if scanning documents is a vital part of your business, there are some clear reasons to choose the DR-1210C, especially as its price is aggressive compared to many other document scanners.

The Canon DR-1210C's one real limitation is that it can scan only one side of a page. Beyond that, Canon got almost everything right.

Fantastic product. I wish I had that years ago. Scan your business cards with the scanner into the software and then, you export all the cards into outlook.or email anybody I want to! I used to have a Rolodex but it seems that I have too many cards, not enough filing time and they ended up in my drawer...This is just very helpful stuffs.

I zipped through 100 business cards into the scanner and they are now in my outlook contact folder. I like it, it’s made for users like me who are not so computer savvy. You scan the cards, choose to export the cards to Outlook and click “Export�. How simpler can it get.

I have a Mac G4 laptop running 10.4.8. From opening the box to having 20 cards well scanned was only about 20 mins. 2 things to be aware of: First, you cannot scan the back of a card (other than making it a separate entry in the database). If you are like me and constantly jot info on the back - you will need to enter that text by hand into the notes field. Second, it cannot recognize 'reversed' text (white text on a dark back ground). Even very clear, sharp, large text is completely lost. Of my 20 cards, 2 had reversed text, and I had to enter those in by hand. All in all, the recognition was very very good. Lots of smarts there. The product configured easily and worked as it should. The interface is a bit goofy - but not too bad. I thing this is a good purchase.

A little more expensive than some models but it's worked well for me. I've scanned just over 500 cards and found the OCR about 90% accurate [most of the problems have come from cutesy business cards with weird fonts - - not the scanners fault]. I've been able to easily exchange data with both Lotus Notes and MS Outlook.

It's a nice enough unit, small and powered by a USB cord but the ability to scan is manual which means human error can often mar the details recorded. Aside from that it's a nice little gadget, albeit a little expensive at over £150 and would come in handy for anyone who wants to do something about that pile of cards, ever growing on their desk.

Good card reader for people who have the time to sit and feed their cards through. The small size makes it easy to carry with you but the small size also hinders your ability to scan cards automatically.
