Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'm not an expert when it comes to judging image quality-so while I'm giving the LiDE210 a great score, I'm not 100% sure if it's image results are as good, worse, or better than comparable relatively high end consumer scanners.I can say the results look good, and so far look the same (to me) as a high end HP model from a few years ago that I use at work.
I was shocked by how small the scanner's box is-in fact I thought maybe I'd accidentally ordered something that would only scan photos.Amazed again when I pulled the scanner out of the box...although it accepts full size papers (and it looks like legal sized too, although I haven't tested any yet) it's easily less than half the size of my HP from work.While it still takes up a decent amount of space on a desk (since it has to be big enough for the scanner bed to accept full size papers), it still somehow feels like it fits in better than older scanners.
Also amazing...it doesn't use a power supply.It pulls all its power over the USB bus from the computer it's connected to...it apparently only draws 2.5 watts while in use, which to me is amazing.Not having a power brick helps make the unit feel smaller too (and means it isn't using power when the computer is off).
The small size and low power use are presumably the result of using LEDs (apparently tri-color) instead of florescent tubes like older scanners use.Another benefit-no mercury or UV radiation.
I was also pleased to discover that even on XP, I was able to use it out of the box without installing the included software.Windows Update found the driver for it, and it was working with Windows' built-in software within a few seconds.(Though I think it's probably better to install the included software to get access to all it's features.)
It's small, seems to give good results, and hardly uses any power...so far seems like a great choice!
