I purchased the LiDE 25 after reading excellent reports on other sites and in Computer Mags. (My previous scanner was an Agfa Snap-scan but it was not compatible with XP. This Canon scanner is so simple compared with the Agfa model) The scanner installed on my Windows XP Pro pc without a hitch and works perfectly. It certainly makes an excellent scanner for the first-time buyer as it is so simple to use. It comes with an very good software package, including Scan-gear and OmniPage OCR. The comprehensive on-line guides will soon turn a novice/nervous user into a happy/confident user. Quiet and smooth operation. The slim build means that it is easy to find a suitable place to keep it. Also scans photographs with ease and excellent results. Can be used on USB 1 or 2 - although it only operates at USB 1 speed; even so, it is not a slow scanner.
