Canon CanoScan LiDE 90 Flatbed Scanner Logo
Fred Altmann Posted on May 20, 2014

Very slow operation of Canoscan Lide90

The scanner takes 1/2 minute before scanning take splace. How can we decrease this number? And what is better: 1. Using the MP Navigator EX 1.0 or 2. Using the scanner driver. I never understood why we need two possibilities. With thanks in advance, Fred

Canon scanners are slow to begin with. A good usb cord plugged directly into a port, not a hub can help. Discontinue as many background programs and operations as possible. The shorter the cord, the better. You can't speed up the scanner, only the data transfer between the scanner and your PC. They are good scanners, just slow. Some printers are like that as well.

SOURCE: CanoScan Scanner can not complete a scan

Double-check all connections and try another port if possible. There may also be damage to cables or pins. Do you have another cable to try? Do other devices work in the same port?

When i install canoscan lide 25 flatbed scanner i try to start my xp computer back up and it takes up to 5 minuets

Those 5 minutes are (1) WinXP trying (and failing) to locate the driver for your Canoscan flatbed scanner, or (2) WinXP perceives that your installation of the flatbed scanner driver failed, and
WinXP is performing a (5 minute long) System Restore to correct the problem.

The Fix to both problems: download (free) updated driver from www.canon.com
For your flatbed scanner:

Canoscan LIDE 25 using Vuescsan software

The first scan is 'pre-scan' and the second one is the real scan. The pre-scan shows you a rough image and you can check borders etc. Look for options and switch off 'Pre-scan' S. Mohan, India

Couple of things to check..

1. make sure your operating system is higher than windows 98 or make sure you install usb 2.0 drivers.

2. you can check this by going to device manager and make sure you have the 'enhanced usb' installed.

3. If you don't then there's your problem.

4. check to make sure you have downloaded the latest drivers

5. Try lowering the resolution of your scans. If you are just doing black/white scanning then choose that option and not hiqaulity full color scans.

good luck
