CANON imageFORMULA DR-C240 A3 OFFICE DOCUMENT SCANNER
Canon DRC-240 Desktop Sheet-Fed Scanner is engineered for professionals who demand fast, accurate, and versatile document scanning in high-volume environments. Designed with a CMOS CIS sensor and RGB LED light source, this scanner delivers 600 dpi optical resolution and supports multiple output resolutions up to 600 x 600 dpi, ensuring every scan is sharp and true to the original.
With impressive scanning speeds—up to 45ppm (pages per minute) in monochrome and 30ppm in color—and 90ipm duplex scanning, this device significantly boosts productivity in offices, legal departments, financial institutions, and healthcare settings. It can handle a variety of media, including business cards, plastic ID cards, and thick passports (up to 4 mm), thanks to its adaptable document feeder and retard roller paper separation technology.
Usability is further enhanced with advanced features like automatic page size detection, color dropout, background smoothing, auto resolution, and double feed detection via ultrasonic sensor. This ensures precise, consistent results even when dealing with mixed or fragile documents.
Equipped with a 60-sheet feeder and a robust daily duty cycle of 4,000 scans, the scanner is built for durability and long-term use. It is also ENERGY STAR and RoHS compliant, supporting sustainability in the workplace.
Included TWAIN/ISIS drivers and bundled software such as Kofax Power PDF and CaptureOnTouch provide seamless integration with Windows environments, while optional accessories like a flatbed scanner unit and barcode module expand functionality even further
