Flatbed Color Scanner (USB2.0)


CanoScan LiDE 60

A perfect scanner for the creatively inclined, the LiDE 60 is so slender it can even be used while standing in its upright position. The LiDE 60's exquisite styling is matched by its incredible functionality. Four EZ buttons automate the most frequently used scanning tasks and a single cable provides both power and USB 2.0 Hi-Speed connection.

Overview

QUALITY SCANS IN NO TIME

4 easy buttons automate the scanning process.
For work or play, the sleek CanoScan LiDE 60 Color Image Scanner is a one-stop scanning machine. Four easy buttons automate the scanning process, making it simple to scan, copy, and create e-mail attachments or PDFs. Just position your original and select the use for the image! Old family snapshots, important documents, your work samples and personal notebooks-whatever the task, the LiDE 60 scanner will get it done fast. The USB 2.0 Hi-Speed interface1 enables incredibly fast image transfers to your computer, with the fastest possible scanning speeds and previews of your scans in approximately 9 seconds. One simple cable provides both power and the USB connection, reducing the number of wires around your desk. Plus, an included desktop stand gives you the option of positioning the scanner vertically to save desk space.

As you'd expect, this versatile machine also delivers high-quality scanning performance. It produces a maximum 1200 x 2400 colour dpi resolution (software enhanced: 19,200 colour dpi) and 48-bit colour depth, for over 281 trillion possible colours. The LiDE 60 scanner comes with powerful software including our CanoScan Toolbox 4.9, which provides a range of creative and practical tools.

Smart features for amazing results.
This is one intelligent scanner. For larger projects, Multi-Scan Mode lets you scan multiple images simultaneously, rather than one by one. Just arrange them on the glass and select "Multi-Scan"- that's it! For convenience, each image is automatically saved as an individual file. The LiDE 60 scanner also comes with Quick Automatic Retouching and Enhancement (QARE) technology, which reduces much of the dust and scratches that may appear on your older originals. It even auto-corrects to help with graininess, picture fading and improper backlighting. After enhancement you can archive these beautiful images and then email them or print them for family and friends.

Through thick or thin, the Z-Lid™ top delivers.
The unique Z-Lid expansion top even delivers high-quality scans of bulky items such as personal notebooks. It lifts approximately 1 inch vertically then lies down flat on the item you are scanning, for a clear, complete scan.

* Windows 98 Systems operate at USB 1.1 speed only.
