Canon CanoScan N670U Review

by Richard Jantz

- WHAT'S HOT: The sleek three-pound Canon CanoScan N670U offers engaging 48-bit-color images for a very affordable $79 price. In our on-screen judging of a 100-dpi (Web quality) photo, images displayed accurate color tones and sharp details overall. Color accuracy in print tests was similarly likeable, but some details were fuzzier than on-screen versions. A photo scanned at 1200 dpi (interpolated) showed well-balanced, pleasing color and contrast, though it looked predictably jaggy. The scanner's front panel has three handy quick-start buttons--for scanning, copying, and e-mailing (via MAPI-compliant software). Like the CanoScan N1240U, the N670U is powered through a USB connection, and does not require a separate power supply or plug-in outlet. As with all Canon scanners, live technical support is available six days a week.

User Reviews for Canon CANOSCAN N670U FLATBED SCANNER 600X1200DPI USB 48 COLOR & MONOCHRO

Reviewed by: ziggrl

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Very small size. Can store vertically with the stand included. Z-lid for bulky scans. Easy to use.

Weaknesses: When looking at the scan on the computer screen sometimes they look horrible, but when printed they look great!! This is the Canon software that is included, not the scanner.

Overall Evaluation: You can't get any better for this price. I wanted an entry level scanner to scan CD covers. This was a perfect choice. I even forgot I have it sometimes because I store is vertically against my monitor so it takes up hardly any space. I love this scanner and it hasn't given me any trouble at all. I love the metallic grey/blue color too!!

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: easy to use, small footprint, easy setup, great price

Weaknesses: doesn't handle legal size (14X11)

Overall Evaluation: My old Microtek E3 wouldn't work without a new adapter card for my new computer (pci vs isa)which I priced at $50 so I bought a new scanner for $100. The Canoscan N670U is perfect for the small office and the software that comes with is easy to use. The OmniPage Pro 9.0 did a great OCR job of reading some reviews I wanted. If this came in a 14X11 size it would be a 5 star instead of 4.
