Lake Success, N.Y., December 1, 2009 – As a result of the growing demand and popularity of its imageFORMULA P-150 personal document scanner, also known as "Scan-tini," Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging and advanced office solutions, today announced it has expanded the availability of the P-150 to all of its sales channels to help meet the increasing demand as the holiday season approaches.

"Since we first introduced the P-150 in October, we have received tremendous positive feedback on the versatility of this scanner resulting in an increased demand in several markets," said Jim Rosetta, vice president and general manager, Imaging Systems Group, Canon U.S.A. "More and more users in all market segments are seeking a simple-to-use, compact and mobile document scanner and the P-150 is becoming the ideal solution for those end-users."
Measuring at only 11 inches long, 3.7 inches wide and 1.6 inches high and weighing just over two pounds, the P-150 redefines the minimum dimensions of a document scanner with automatic document feeder. It can scan a batch of up to 20 documents at its maximum scanning speed of 15 pages-per-minute (ppm) in simplex, or 30 images-per-minute (ipm) in duplex scanning^*, yet still fits easily into a briefcase. In addition, the P-150 includes a "Plug-and-Scan" capability to let users easily start scanning without installing drivers or imaging applications, ISIS and TWAIN drivers for easy hardware integration with third-party Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software, and can use electrical power via a single USB cable connected to a PC. These features make it ideal for use by small or home office businesses, "road warriors," and entrepreneurs.
