Canon imageFORMULA DR-F120

I downloaded the latest software from Canon's website. A real drama to get it to work. Keeps crashing. I googled the error message and immediately saw that it's a known bug that's been around for years and that Canon doesn't do anything about. When you install the software, you can already see from the installation procedure that it is quite outdated. It took me a few days to get it going, was actually about to send it back but that's such a hassle and I really had to have a scanner. Error in the Canon software is in region setting, could be solved fairly easily by Canon, but apparently they don't feel like it. I now have the scanner working, but only if the date and time on my computer are in American format, so month-day-year. It takes some getting used to when I work in Excel :( . If I had known that in advance, I would have bought a different brand of scanner.

Beautiful device that is easy to install and simple to use.

My goal is to steadily reduce paper storage in my home office. The volume to be processed is therefore not huge and the scanning speed requirement is not critical. So it works well with this device. The quality of the scanned documents should only meet the "consultation standard" (clearly legible on a screen 'if-or-when' they should be consulted). This device meets my expectations.
