Tweet

Canon has made its foray into the world of desktop scanners for Macs with the introduction of two new high-speed business scanners. The DR-2510M and the DR-2010M are both new additions to Canon’s imageFORMULA DR series, and the first in the series to include TWAIN driver that makes them compatible to work with Macs.

Both scanners come bundled with Canon’s CaptureOnTouch software, which allows users to upload or send scanned images directly to email, printers, shared network folders and even to specific applications like iPhoto.

As for the speed, the DR-2510M offers color scanning at rates up to 25 single sided pages per minute or 20 double-sided pages for the same duration. The DR-2010M is faster of the two and manages to scan 50 single sided pages a minute, or 40 double-sided just as fast.

Images from both scanners can reach a maximum of 600dpi resolution, and they come with automatic page size detection and text orientation recognition — while the 2510M also has the ability for ultrasonic double feed detection.

Both scanners are Energy Star compatible and also meet the requirements put forward by RoHS and WEEE directives for reduction of hazardous substances and waste products.

Price wise, Canon’s imageFORMULA DR-2510M sells at $795, while the DR-2010M is available for $555.
