The Canon CanoScan LiDE 400 is a sleek, USB‑Type‑C powered flatbed scanner combining high resolution, fast operation, and intuitive controls in a slim design—ideal for home or light office use.
Key Specifications & Features
- High-resolution capture:
Optical resolution of 4,800 × 4,800 dpi with selectable interpolation up to 19,200 dpi, delivering fine detail for both documents and photos.
- Fast scanning performance:
An A4 page at 300 dpi is scanned in about 8 seconds, while a 4×6″ photo takes approximately 4 seconds. Previewing during setup takes around 7 seconds.
- EZ‑Scan one-touch buttons:
Five convenient buttons (two for PDF, Auto Scan, Copy, Send) enable quick tasks, including multi-page PDF creation and automatic upload to cloud services like OneDrive or Dropbox.
- Smart image correction:
Offers Auto Document Fix and Auto Photo Fix on Windows (TWAIN driver required), to enhance clarity, remove shadows, and restore faded color.
- Flexible, space-saving design:
Measures 250 × 367 × 42 mm, weighs 1.7 kg, and includes a Z-Lid hinge that supports items up to 21 mm thick (e.g. books), along with an optional vertical stand to reduce desktop footprint. Powered via USB‑C (data and power over one cable).
The Canon CanoScan LiDE 400 is an excellent value for users seeking a compact, easy-to-use scanner with solid resolution and speed. It’s especially suitable for routine document and photo digitization at 600 dpi or less. However, if your workflow demands pinpoint color accuracy or full high-resolution (4800 dpi) scanning on modern macOS (post–Big Sur), you might want to consider alternatives like the Canon LiDE 500, Epson Perfection V600, or dedicated ADF or film scanners.
