 Follow-up to DR-2080C September 6, 2005

I have not (yet) bought the Canon DR-2050C, but studied its specifications. It seems to be equivalent to the predecessor Canon DR-2080C, except for the supplied software and the computer interface. If you can, go back and read the reviews for the DR-2080C. The old model featured both a USB 2.0 and a SCSI-II connection. The new model has only the USB 2.0 interface. The exterior design is also a little different, with the new model being a little more rounded. Let's be clear: Both are A4/legal size scanners. The talk of scanning A3 documents (11x16 inches) is a software feature that requires you fold your A3 documents to scan front and back at the same time. Software can then stitch the two images together again.
I've owned my old Canon DR-2080C for two years now, and have been very happy with it. But I've used it a lot, I think I've scanned 100,000 two-sided pages (200,000 images) with it, and it is coming to the end of its lifetime, so I'm leaning towards replacing it with the new DR-2050C. Perhaps its nearest competitor, the Fujitsu fi-5110EOX, is a little cheaper but isn't TWAIN/ISIS compatble.
 Does a great job- but must be cleaned. March 16, 2007

We've owned the DR-2050C for about 8 months at our office, shared by 8 users. Setup took an hour or two, but went as smoothly as can be expected. You need to install 3 software programs to be complete. We are using it on an old, spare, Pentium 3 machine. I added a high-speed USB 2.0 card to the machine which definitely gives the scanner better speed. We don't use all the features but for just scanning loads of old paper, it works great. NOTE: It does pick up dirt easily, causing streaks in the output. The front-side lens is very hard to reach, and the mfr. is very cautious about how to clean it. (Their recommendation did not get the gunk out.) I called their Tech Support and he suggested using alcohol on a cotton cloth to clean the lenses, but must be careful not to get alcohol on the rubber rollers. We clean it regularly now-- whenever it shows streaks-- and it is fine. I would buy another one for the home, but the price is still too high. Hopefully prices of these things will fall in the future.
 Hardware good, software bad. September 7, 2006

I have owned my 2050C for about 3 weeks. Whilst it has integrated quite well into my offices, it did take a 5 hours of frustration, an email to tech support, a 2 day wait for a reply, and a download of the latest CapturePerfect (3.0.30 iirc) to get multipage documents batching to pdf's without a consistent lockup on or about the 3rd document.
I would have expected this very straightforward feature, which is heavily promoted in the product advertising, would be working out of the box (i.e. off the provided CD) for $500.
Happy to have it functional now, but I suggest you email tech support for the latest CapturePerfect and bin the included CD.
Great Product -- Way Too Expensive May 22, 2007

I have tracked this product for a long time, including its earlier siblings (a SCSI version, and then a USB/SCSI version, and now a USB only version). The main problem with the product is that Canon has not dropped the price for many years. It has always cost $500-$700 on the street, and the only modifications that Canon has made have to do with the data interface. Considering that laptop computers can now be purchased for the same price as this scanner, the product is just way too overpriced at this point.
Good product and service March 23, 2007
