Into Imagine being away from work, and you need to scan an important document, or even a contract just signed, to send to your boss immediately ready to be used, perhaps in PDF, in high resolution. With a scanner, PC and connect to the Internet would be simple enough, but how can you do without a PC?
Canon offers a solution of super portable scanner imageFORMULA P-208, and from the WU10. The user simply add your own portable device: smartphone or tablet that with iOS or Android. The app to make it all work is free, always provides the Canon, you download from the store directly on the device and its name is CaptureOnTouch Mobile.
Canon imageFORMULA P-208
Into Let’s start from the scanner.
Canon imageFORMULA P-208 is an ultraportable (312.5 x 55.5 x 40 mm tray closed for 600 grams of weight), but it does not force any waiver with respect to the scan quality . Scan the front and back in a single step with the sensor at 600 dpi, the minimalist binarietti for a further projection of just 7 cm allow the supply of more than one sheet, with some attention. The first important feature for travelers is that the scanner is powered via USB, so it does not need an external power supply.
Canon WU10 WiFi
Into our case to supply power directly provides the unit Canon WU10, which serves to generate the WiFi network connection with your portable device, and which in turn is equipped with autonomous rechargeable battery. The consumption of the scanner are reduced to just 2.5 W. When the unit is turned off but connected absorbs 0.5 W. Are also good overall performance in speed. Keep in mind that black and white at 300 dpi you scan quietly 8 pages per minute, or obviously 16 ipm (images per minute – front and back). Well Into scan business cards, such as paper-based documents to a maximum thickness of 0.22 mm with a weight up to 209 g/m2. Also supported are embossed card up to 1.4 mm thick. Into Anyone wishing to use the scanner still connected to the PC, then connecting it via USB to a PC port powered, will have software like Capture OnTouch, or OnTouchLite, Presto! BizCard Reader and can of course use for the sharing of the benefits of Evernote, SharePoint or Google Docs on which to save documents directly. Into The greater ease of use is achieved, however, by using the device with the optional WiFi and WU10 Canon CaptureOnTouch Mobile app.
How do your first scan with imageFORMULA P-208
Into The first step is the connection of the little box WiFi WU10 power supply to charge the internal battery long life. Once loaded just leave the unit set to AP (access point) the function selector switch, connect via USB (cable supplied) to the scanner device (make sure that the scanner Canon Image Formula P-208 have the switch on the back AutoStart set to On) and then turn the unit on WU10, she will also turn the power of your scanner.
Canon CaptureOn Touch Mobile
operation WU10 determines the generation of a Wifi network peer-to-peer protected which can connect multiple mobile devices. The password (you can find flipping through the instruction manual, written in a box – maybe you could give greater visibility) is “canonwu10″, you will modify the first use with the PC – it’s more comfortable. Connect your smartphone or tablet to the network after downloading the app from the store CaptureOnTouch Mobile (works with the Canon imageFORMULA P-208 and the P-215).
Into Launch the application and wait for the approval of the P-208 scanner. The first attempt is not always immediate, we struggled. With iOS we had to wait more than a little, solving the whole launching the app directly from the store. Then all is well and perfect. Directly from your iPhone you can run your first scan, setting the various parameters of the scan once the scan is the app menu that suggests sharing, directly on your cloud repos itory (eg SkyDrive or Google Drive, also in PDF or sending via email.
Into Canon imageFORMULA P-208 costs about 200 euro; Canon WU10 about 170 euro. The price of this second tool is high in our opinion. The coupling is a productive investment in the company, unless for personal use only.
