- Garbage
When it works it works fine.But after a few scans the thing tries to calibrate itself and usually fails, telling you to follow the instructions in the manual.I couldn't find these alleged instructions anywhere in the manual or Canon's nearly useless website.Sometimes trying to scan again will eventually work, sometimes not.I had to scan a bunch of old pictures for a surprise party but this thing decided to quit on me halfway through the job.Best of luck to Canon if this is the junk they ...

- Great for college students
I'm a college student and after a couple of years of research projects requiring copious photocopying (and tired of lugging spare change around) I decided to buy the Canon CanoScan Image Scanner. What attracted me foremost was the generally positive reviews and the great price compared to other scanners. I needed a scanner to have all of my copies in digital format, and didn't think being too particular and shelling out more money for a nicer scanner mattered.

- LiDE 25 on Mac OSX
The latest driver on the Canon site does NOT work on the latest OSX.
I had to go to the Europe Canon site and use the older 11.020 driver.
It does a good job of scanning for me. The colors are good. The speed is bearable for increased resolution.

- Canon LIDE 25 is a pig
15 minutes to warm up once the USB cable is plugged in, and 5 minutes to scan a page, with mediocre scan results.You could do better if you copy the original with a crayon.
This is my third scanner, and my first USB.Admittedly, I bought it for portability, because it would fit in a laptop case; thus, I knew it was not the same high-end scanner I was used to. But it failed abysmally to meet my intentionally reduced expectations.
Flee! Flee!

- Got the job done
I bought this scanner to scan family photos. It got the job done, but as others have mentioned the scanning speed is very slow and noisey.
I didn't have any problems hooking up the scanner or installing the software.
I scanned about 40 photos, most all at 600 DPI. (The higher the DPI the higher the quality, but also the longer it takes to scan.) I found that it was essential to preview each scan (to adjust the scan area, do any tweaking, etc.), which really added to the scan ... Read More
