Canon Canoscan N640P ... office or small office, the CanoScan N640P flatbed scanner is the perfect solution for all your scanning needs. It's compact and stylish design means it won't take up valuable desk space. It's astonishingly lightweight and so quiet in operation, you'll hardly notice it's there. With its high-tech metallic finish and sleek new styling, the CanoScan N640P looks incredible on any desktop. But great looks are just the beginning, since this scanner has been designed for exceptional performance as well. High-quality scans now come at a truly great price.

The N640P scanner makes scanning simple. Connect the scanner via parallel port to any compatible Mac or PC and you're ready to go. Push the convenient external scan button and scan photos, graphics, articles and more. The software included helps you take advantage of it all, whether you want to optimize photos, manipulate images or simply integrate text or graphics into your projects. Canon's exclusive Z-Lid Expansion Top will change the way you scan bulky items, such as books and magazines. Many other scanner covers lift only at an angle and become uneven and awkward when scanning anything that isn't completely flat. The N640P scanner cover includes a special expansion hinge that lifts vertically, allowing the lid to lie flat, creating the space needed for bulky items.

I bought this scanner almost two years ago. To share photographs with friends and family scattered all over the world, I opted for a scanner rather than a digital camera. The simple reason was that photos on a 35mm or APS autofocus are generally much better value for money when compared to the cost of an excellent quality printer with corresponding paper and ink etc. Also, the prints from a 'normal' camera are more than acceptable. As an owner of an old PC, I opted for a Parallel port scanner. This machine is beautiful, light-weight and above all, very efficient. I won't go into the details of the technical specifications which can be found in the ...
