Canon imageFORMULA DR-M160II Document Scanner - up to 120 images per minute

Canon imageFORMULA DR-M160II Document Scanner scans at up to 120 images per minute, putting high-volume A4 document capture in a compact desktop unit. It’s aimed at offices and workgroups that process a steady flow of paperwork and need more than a few pages handled at a time. Use it to digitise batches of colour or black-and-white documents, prepare paperwork for OCR workflows, or bring bound pages into a digital archive with an optional flatbed scanner. Its fast throughput is the headline, but the details around paper handling matter just as much when a scanner is working through a busy stack: the automatic feeder holds a substantial load, and a paper-separation system responds to detected double feeds by automatically feeding the document again. Canon supplies CaptureOnTouch Pro for scanning and document management, with an interface that includes a full auto mode for straightforward jobs. The DR-M160II is a focused document scanner rather than an all-purpose flatbed; for books or other bound material, it connects to Canon’s optional A4 or A3 flatbed units. That combination makes it a practical fit for routine paperwork as well as workflows that occasionally include bound pages.

What it does

• Fast document capture: The scanner reaches up to 120 images per minute in colour. That speed is useful when a queue of office documents needs to move through a desktop scanning station.
• 75-sheet automatic feeder: Load a batch into the ADF rather than placing each page on a scanning surface. It handles both colour and black-and-white documents.
• High recommended daily volume: Canon rates the DR-M160II for up to 13,000 scans per day. That figure makes it relevant to regular, demanding scanning work rather than occasional single-page tasks.
• Double-feed recovery: Its paper-separation system detects a double feed and automatically feeds the document again. This reduces the need for someone to intervene when two sheets enter together.
• CaptureOnTouch Pro included: The software provides scanning and document-management tools, with a full automatic mode in its interface for simpler scan jobs.
• OCR on Windows and Mac: The DR-M160II is suited to OCR processing in both operating-system environments, useful when scanned paperwork needs to be handled as text rather than kept only as page images.
• Optional flatbed connection: For bound material, connect an optional Canon A4 Flatbed Scanner 102 or A3 Flatbed Scanner 202. Those add-ons extend the scanner’s use beyond loose sheets.

Good to know

The scanner measures 280 × 172 × 178 mm with its tray closed, and 280 × 606 × 336.4 mm with the tray open. It weighs approximately 3.2 kg. The optional flatbed units are separate accessories: the A4 Flatbed Scanner 102 and A3 Flatbed Scanner 202 are the named compatible options in the supplied product information. Allow for the larger open-tray dimensions when planning where it will sit during scanning.
