The Canon imageFORMULA DR-M140II is described as a compact, user-friendly A4 scanner that can process different document sizes and weights together while producing clear scans for sharing and storage.

Its U-Turn path allows documents to feed and eject from the front. The straight path is intended for cards, thick documents and fragile documents that should not be bent.

The supplied card guidance covers plain plastic and embossed cards. Up to three plain cards may be scanned at one time, while embossed cards must be scanned one at a time; mixed batches may include cards and paper documents.
