Product Description

Canon CanoScan LiDE90 Color Image Scanner makes scanning documents simple, with just four easy buttons you can use to quickly scan, copy, email attachments, and create PDFs. The CanoScan's Advanced Z-Lid system makes it easy to complete scans of even difficult items, such as thick notebooks that won't lie flat, curled pages, or faded original prints. Sophisticated retouching technology further enhances your scans while automatically removing dust, scratches, fading, graininess, and backlighting.

The CanoScan LiDE90 produces vividly clear scans with color resolution up to 2400 by 4800 dpi. One simple USB 2.0 interface cable equips you with a high-speed connection that provides the fastest image transfers and scanning speeds possible, and the machine's dual compatibility makes it a cinch to use with both Windows and Mac operating systems. The scanner measures 14.4 by 9.9 by 1.6 inches, and weighs 12 pounds.

The perfect laptop scanning companion
 
Review Date: September 16, 2007
Reviewer: sircyberdawg, Pensacola, FL
The CanoScan LiDE 90 is small, light, and portable. It's no wider or longer than my Dell Insperon 6000, so it fits nicely in my laptop case. It can easily be hidden in a desk drawer. All power is through the USP, so there is no need for an electrical socket. The scanner is on only when it is scanning, so it does not run down the laptop's battery. The color photo scanning is quite accurate. The supplied OCR worked surprisingly well. Images can also be saved as PDF files. This affordable scanner covers the scanning basics well, and will prove to be a real time saver for me.
Excellent step up from the Lide 25
 
Review Date: November 5, 2007
Reviewer: Jim Gurney, Atlanta GA USA
I purchased and used a Canon Lide 25 scanner for about 2 weeks. While browsing a local office supply store and seeing this unit I wondered if it would work better/easier, so it came home and was setup. I'm scanning hundreds of photos and a number of 8.5 x 11" documents. The Lide 90 software is much better; this scanner is USB 2.0 compatible and therefore much faster producing output. The BIG difference is the software; directly Vista compatible, easier to use, nicer interfaces. I recommend this scanner over the model 25, especially if you have a large amount of scanning work ahead. My scanning output has more than doubled by switching to this scanner.
A Great Macintosh Scanner
 
Review Date: May 31, 2008
Reviewer: Nicholas Ballard, Lexington, MA
I needed a low cost scanner for making copies and creating PDFs from scanned documents -- but I use a Macintosh, and most comments from Mac users were very negative. There are, however, very few low-cost scanners remaining -- and they all received equally bad Mac software reviews. I decided to try the LiDE 90. Before buying the hardware, I went to the Canon website and downloaded / installed the Leopard drivers. When I received the scanner, I simply connected the usb cable, and everything worked perfectly. Although the software interface is not "pure Mac" -- it simple, attractive, and functional.
Great value!

I just bought this scanner yesterday- I am scanning dozens of old family photos so I can color correct them and put them in an album for my parents. Anyway- I went looking for the 25, but it was not in stock, so I went ahead and got the 90. I am extremely happy with it so far. It's very fast, and the quality is better than I expected for the price. Installation was easy, and the software is self-explanatory. And I love that it doesn't need a separate power source.

One piece of advice- don't know if this is just me, but I was unable to get the scanner to work when I plugged it into my USB hub. I had to plug it directly into my machine.
Very good basic home scanner

This Scanner works with only one USB plug (no bulky power adapters).5 volt so it has very low power consumption, and very easy hook up to the computer. The scanner is a touch noisy but I will not count that against it, because it is fast easy to use and has great software with it. My first copy was made with one push of the of the scanners copy button and was printing out on my printer within 15 seconds of pushing the button. Also this scanner will create PDF documents, so you can send/email any multiple page documents to anyone all in one PDF document (this alone is worth the price of the scanner). This scanner will not copy Slide photography so don't buy it for that. One important thing to note is that (unlike most hardware)YOU MUST INSTALL ALL SCANNER SOFTWARE BEFORE YOU ATTEMPT TO PLUG THE SCANNERS USB PORT INTO YOUR COMPUTER. I have Vista home premium but this scanner should work equally well with XP.
Sleek, Compact and Nice Photo Quality

This scanner is sleek, light weight and has nice scan quality. I like it as it doesn't require the power cord. Both the data and the power is connected through a single USB cord. It has nice photo quality and very accurate OCR conversion result.
Great Buy!

This scanner works great! I was able to scan old photos and restore them to a much better quality! It's super light and easy to manage. It is also great because it doesn't require an outlet plug-in!
