Whether you need to quickly scan a large stack of papers or convert book pages into image data, you can rely on the Canon DR-4080U to provide you with a convenient and user-friendly solution each time. The DR-4080U is designed to meet a broad range of user needs, and offers high-quality results with every task. Its wide variety of specialty functions also make it the ideal tool for day-to- day document management.
V e r s a t i l i t y
Fast scanning plus duplexing
In its primary sheet-feeding configuration, the DR- 4080U is a high-speed scanner that efficiently handles batch processing jobs. As many as 200 sheets of standard LTR/A4-size paper can be loaded onto its Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) tray at once, and – with just a press of the Start button – each sheet is fed quickly and
smoothly through the unit. Throughput for LTR/A4-size documents is 45 pages per minute in portrait mode and 57 ppm in landscape mode.* The DR- 4080U also features a duplexing capability for simultaneous scanning of both sides of the page – a process which yields production rates of up to 108 images per minute in landscape mode.*
Diverse paper-feeding capabilities
Various expert feeding functions enable the DR-4080U to optimally handle batches of mixed sizes or paper weights. When papers of different sizes are contained in the same stack, the scanner can be set to automatically detect the length or width of each page. And when your stack has
material of varying paperweight, automatic paper- thickness recognition can be put to work. To ensure that no images get missed, the DR- 4080U’s double-feed detection alerts you when more than one sheet has been pulled into the unit.

Image-enhancement technology
The DR-4080U’s image-processing repertoire does an outstanding job of achieving top scanning results for the full range of document management applications, from electronic filing to optical character recognition. The DR-4080U is capable of producing binary or grayscale scans at resolutions ranging from 100dpi up to 600dpi, and both grayscale level and
scan resolution are user-selectable. Among the scanner’s many other imaging controls are brightness, contrast, white level, noise reduction, and image inversion. To make scanning as easy as possible, most functions are accessible through a user- friendly control panel located on the scanner’s front panel. And, for further convenience, customized settings can be stored in memory for instant recall through the control panel.

11" x 17"/A3-size flatbed scanning
One of the DR-4080U’s biggest advantages is that it can also be used as a flatbed scanner. This flexibility is ideal when books or other bound material – or even important papers which are too delicate to be fed through the ADF – need to be scanned. The DR- 4080U accepts documents of up to 11" x 17"/A3-size,
and offers scanning speeds up to 1.5 seconds for standard LTR/A4-size documents. In addition, the ADF can be left
in an upright position to facilitate flatbed scanning use.
■Optional features
A pair of special options allows the DR-4080U to be customized to your specific document management needs. The optional LED sensor improves the efficiency of forms processing work by filtering out red lines and areas printed on documents from the image 
data. The Imprinter option
prints serial numbers or other user-designated messages on the front of each scanned piece of paper.
■Easy user-maintenance
Another way the DR-4080U contributes to your office’s workflow is by minimizing any downtime caused by basic maintenance tasks such as roller replacement and roller cleaning. Messages which indicate the roller status are helpfully displayed on
the DR-4080U’s operation panel, and users can complete the required maintenance with ease.
