Overview
A crowded home desk or study table is where this Canon CanoScan LiDE 300 slim scanner earns its place. Four EZ buttons start common jobs, Auto Scan Mode detects what is on the glass, and a PDF button saves searchable files using OCR.
One-touch buttons and a slim body make routine scanning quick. The limit is the single-item scan, plus a box listing that names a different LiDE model, which is worth confirming with the seller.
Who it's for
Households and students digitizing photos, business cards and paperwork a few items at a time will find it simple. Offices with piles of paper, or buyers who need film scanning, should choose a feeder or specialist model.
Pros and cons

Performance notes
The LED light source and scan resolution decide how much detail photos hold. Fade correction and dust reduction clean up older prints after the scan. The PDF button runs OCR so the output file can be searched and edited.
