I used this scanner for a few months scanning approximately 8,000 photos when it stopped feeding. I contacted support who told me I should replace the rollers which I did and which did NOT resolve the issue. Ultimately I was told I needed to purchase a new scanner and there was nothing that could be done. This product is rated for 4,000 scans a DAY so why does it fail with just double that amount??

While the scanner is easy to use nightmare to install software
I have taken on the daunting task of putting the family photos in digital format. This scanner has made it so much easier than using a flat bed scanner. It works very quickly and does a great job on the photos. I was able to get an entire storage bin of photos scanned in about 3 hours. I still have several bins to go but on a flat bed scanner, I would have only been able to get a small portion of them done and they would not have looked as good. I would definitely recommend this scanner.
This device is great for scanning documents if you're lucky enough to get it recognized by your machine. It is very trick to get it recognized by my PC and using the register repair download works sometimes, sometimes not. The color processing for photos oversaturates the colors and as others have noted cannot be disabled.
I purchased the imageFORMULA RS 40 Photo and Document Scanner thinking it would produce higher quality scans than a multi-function printer scanner. However, I was very disappointed. As I began scanning photos, this scanner totally ruined the color with its automatic color correction which after much effort and calling Canon Tech Support cannot be shut off. The only offering was scan the photos in and then move them to a photo editing software and correct the color. My photos had perfect color so why go through all that effort. If all you want to scan is black & white photos, it is fine but for color photos, look elsewhere. I returned this scanner and would not recommend it.
Instructions for basic procedure are NOT TOO clear. You need to write instructions for an eight grade level.
The color correction is not very good and does not distorts human subjects at times. If there was a way of totally disabling the color correction and let the user use Photoshop for this task it would be great. If you are only doing gray scale (i.e. black and white) this can be worked around a bit. I am going to be using this scanner mainly for very old BW and old documents and this unit is well suited for this task.
Works great for paper notes and photos. Easy setup.
Easy to use and set up very happy with it so far I have hundreds of pictures to do.
this scanner is bad. it is slow the colors are way off from the original and no combination of settings seems to fix it. i have used other bulk scanners and i have to say this is the worst. the only redeeming thing about it is that it scans things in the proper order to keep them organized but the software doesn't create subfolders even when prompted to.
