Canon has also been acknowledged by Buyers Lab in the scanner category with the following award:

• imageFORMULA DR-G2140 Outstanding Mid-Volume Production Scanner

(See how Canon’s new high-speed A3-document scanners are capable of high output volumes with incredible processing speeds and reliability.
