Canon U.S.A. Inc. has announced the introduction of the imageFORMULA DR-C360 Office Document Scanner, the successor to the DR-M160II. Designed for busy office environments, the compact desktop scanner combines increased paper capacity, extended long-document scanning and enhanced image processing to help users digitize documents efficiently while minimizing interruptions.

The new scanner delivers fast scanning speeds of up to 60 pages per minute (ppm) in both black-and-white and color, with duplex scanning built in. A redesigned feeding system accommodates up to 100 sheets — an increase from the 60-sheet capacity of its predecessor — and supports a recommended daily volume of up to 13,000 sheets. The scanner also captures long documents up to 240 inches in length, twice the maximum length supported by the DR-M160II, with output resolutions of up to 1,200 dpi for clear images and enlargements.

This new model adds several enhancements designed to expand its versatility in the office. Passport scanning is supported requiring virtually no need for a carrier sheet, while image processing technology carried over from the DR-S250N and DR-S350NW is designed to help produce clear, consistent scans from challenging originals, including documents with highlighter marks and photographs. A USB Type-C connection provides easy connectivity, while the icon-based monochrome LCD display and physical buttons give users quick access to device status and frequently used scan settings. Up to 49 scan jobs can be assigned directly to the scanner for convenient one-touch access.

For software and workflow support, the DR-C360 includes Canon's standard CaptureOnTouch v5 Pro software, ReadIRIS Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and PDF processing software, and Tungsten VRS Elite software, with options to scan to multiple destinations and save in a wide range of file formats.

Designed with long-term usability in mind, the DR-C360 has fewer components that need to be replaced as part of its roller replacement kit and consumes less power than its predecessor.
