I have an iMac that is running on OS 10.6.5 Snow Leopard and the Canon software is compatible. This is definitely a plus because there aren't a lot of options there for third party Mac-compatible scanning software.

My main uses include scanning multiple-page PDF files and occasional photocopying. The software included does those things perfectly and I can really customize the settings.

The one feature that I found to be really helpful is the fact that you can photocopy things with the push of ONE button (as long as you have a printer in your network or one that is directly connected). It is so easy. You just put the document or photo in the scanner and press the "copy" button on the scanner. It will scan in and print off of whichever printer you have as your default printer. The best part? It doesn't save the image to your computer when you push the "copy" button.

All-in-all, the price was really low, the scanner is much smaller and thinner than others, and it just works. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to buy one of I could do it all over again.

My old LiDE 20 is not compatible with Win7. It worked fine in the old days: easy installation, easy USB operation, good results. So I purchased a LiDE 210 thinking things would be the same. Nope.

The LiDE absolutely refuses to communicate with my powerful Win7 desktop. I've spent *hours* trying to get past the ERROR Code 5,55,155 with absolutely no luck.

Tried it on my Win7 netbook--I am able to scan but the buttons don't work. Tried it on an XP machine at work--connects beautifully without the supplied software and works fine bi-directionally. Go figure. Cannon help service has not been helpful. I'm taking it back.

Comments about Canon CanoScan LiDE 210 Flatbed Scanner:

This is the perfect scanner offering automatic functions for the novice and total control for the professional. For print, OCR (Optical Character Recognition) enables text to be turned into editable text. For PDFs, it is extremely easy to create single or multi-page documents, and text is automatically converted so it can be copy-and-pasted. For photos, enhancements include dust and scratch removal, sharpening (without brittle artifacts), fade compensation for restoring old photos, and more. Best of all, the scan speed is extremely fast. The footprint is the size of a thin phone book and power is derived from the included USB cable. Canon makes some wonderful products. I am extremely pleased with this scanner and highly recommend it.

      This is my 2nd CanoScan LiDE flatbed scanner. The 1st one was excellent, so when I got a new Mac, I also got a new CanoScan. As an advertising writer/producer, I use the scanner regularly in preparing TV storyboards and more.

          1 answer

          • A:

            Combining images into a single PDF would be done in software. It's not really a function of the printer. The best way to go about this is to name your scans sequentially and then combine them into a multi-paged PDF either using Preview on a Mac, or Acrobat on a Windows PC.
