Horrible customer service
Followed instructions to set up. Didn't work. Called Canon. Product only supported on the web. Useless! Wish to return.

Canon LIDE300 Scanner Review
I use this scanner for basic everyday scanning
of mostly text documents. I do scan images sometimes
and find it does that quite well also.
Having owned a Canon LIDE30 scanner for a very long
time, I can vouch to say, from my experience, that it
has been a very reliable scanner and easy to use.
The only reason I had to purchase the newer LIDE 300
is I was unable to locate a newer LIDE30 driver to
work with my newer Dell hardware and Windows 10
operating system.
Well worth the purchase price.

Planned Obsolescence
It's cheap and okay. Not as user friendly as previous scanner I had (LIDE200) but Canon stopped supporting it when I got new computer with updated Windows (11). They'll probably do the same with this in a few years.

Latest Situation
I recently purchased a second CanoScan LIDE 300, thinking that the first one was bad. Much to my surprise I found out that both scanners do not interface with Apple Sequoia 15.5 and that a new "patch fix" needed to be made by Canon. They also could not tell me when that would happen??
The only saving factor was that when I connected the scanner to my older Mac Cylinder, it worked fine, so I at least have somer scanner capabilities until the next software upgrade.

Best Scanner For Macs
For the price, you can't beat it. Plugged into my MacBook Pro, started Image Capture and I was scanning at the highest resolutions, without downloading any software from Canon.

This is a scam product. NOT 2400 DPI!
This is a scam product. It does NOT scan in 2400 dpi: Just 600 dpi. Tried both on mac and pc. These specifications are LIES!

HORRIBLE SOFTWARE !!!
scanner works well when it wants to... but the lack of software scanner features is horrible! your basic software is glitchy and there are no auto adjustment choices such as document / photo / magazine, etc. i cannot preview and adjust the image like i could with my old LIDE scanner (which quit working). PLEASE BRING BACK the advanced MAC software driver features that you used to include for the previous LIDE scanner versions. Why did you ever do away with the nice software drivers that used to come with your scanners? Please bring back legacy software drivers, updated for 64 bit. i should not have to purchase a program to get more features for this thing. i am sorry for the negative rating but i am so frustrated with the software that drives my new scanner. Canon - PLEASE FIX THIS ISSUE FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS

Does not have the ablities of the Canoscan 9000F
I was unable to replace my Canoscan 9000F which was functioning well but for which drivers for Windows 11 were unavailable from Canon. Th LIDE 300 does not have the ability of the Canoscan 9000F.

Canon Scanner LIDe 300
Love my purchase. Canon never fails to build great products. I've had this for a few weeks now and it scans and copies with great clarity. For the amount of time I use this, I couldn't be more satisfied.

Great full size scanner
Easy to install and very user friendly. I love having all the controls on the scanner. Never a problem with Dell.

Great Scanner
I like how light this is and even though there were a few reviews saying it didn't work. I had no problem with using the scanner. I was able to easily upload the program to my computer from the scanner's site, and it quickly scanned the items i used to test it out. Easy, Simple, and light.
