Description: The Canon LiDE 30 is an A4 flatbed USB scanner.
It also comes with a stand to allow things to be scanned with the device in a vertical position, giving a very small footprint.

Works fine with Sane.

This model is being discontinued, so I found it at a good price. I took it home, plugged it in, and it was recognized immediately. I have used it a few times, and it works as advertised.

There are three buttons on the front copy, email, and save; I have not touched them yet.

If only MS Windows were as easy as:

1) # emerge sane-backends sane-frontends xsane
2) # gpasswd -a coolaj86 scanner
3) $ gimp-2.0 &

then they might have a leg to stand on... but they don't and GNU/Linux is sooooooooooooooo much easier to use!
(provided that the drivers exist that is)

TWAIN is for girls.
SANE, well... the name says it all.

I had some problems with this scanner. First it this lamp thing inside sometime stops and just blocks. I don't think this software problem. The USB port is pretty weak and it moves.
Somehow I accidentally fried it with too high voltage :P
