The imageFORMULA P-150 Portable Scanner from Canon weighs just over 2 lbs is only 11 inches long but can scan full size documents, including legal-sized pages. The P-150 scans up to 15 pages per minute and even supports batch scanning 20 pages at a time. The unit is "plug-and-scan" capable so there's no need to install any drivers or software before beginning to scan. The scanner is the perfect addition to any mobile office solution. You can even scan directly to PDF. Now there's no need to take files and papers along with you, scan them on the spot and retrieve them any time from your computer.
Despite being a compact scanner, the P-150 is anything but a watered-down unit. The scanner has most of what you would expect from a full-sized scanner including Skip Blank Page, Advanced Text Enhancement, Rapid Recovery, Auto Page Size Detection, Deskew, Prevent Bleed-Through, Remove Background, Color Dropout, as well as batch scanning of up to 20 pages at a time.

Comments about Canon imageFORMULA P-150 Portable Scanner:
I use this scanner for business trips. It's been very reliable and the double sided scaning is quite fast. I have really no critisms for this product apart from recommending that it could perhaps be improved if the scanning could also be done wirelessly to minimise additional wires however this would also mean having a battery supply.
