Has anyone ever used this scanner directly with a FritzBox? (Scanner connected directly to the USB port of the FritzBox with USB remote connection). How fast was the scanning then?

Unfortunately, we have no experience with this. If the background of the request is that several people want to share the scanner without reconnecting, we recommend Silex DS-510 (EU) USB Device Server. This device server offers a kind of 'traffic light system' for the scanning task: The person who wants to scan takes the scanner when free (traffic light green) - All others get a traffic light red (scanner busy) at that moment. In this case, the driver and the scan application must also be installed on each PC, as well as a small additional software from Silex, which routes the local USB port to the USB device server from Silex. Note: This solution is only ideal if all users are in the same office, as the scan application has to be started on their own PC, unless they work with the 'job buttons' on the scanner.

My Probook has a Windows 11 Pro operating system. Is this scanner compatible?

The scanner is not directly compatible with Windows 11 Pro as there are no specific drivers available for Windows 11. However, older Canon drivers designed for Windows Vista or later may work as they often run on newer versions of Windows such as Windows 10. It is advisable to test compatibility or use alternative software such as VueScan which may support the scanner.

I am trying to install the software for the DR-F120 scanner. The operating system is Windows 10 HOME / 64bit. I have downloaded and installed the latest TWAIN driver and the latest version of CaptureOn Touch V4 Pro from the Canon support homepage. No errors occurred during the installation. As soon as I connect and switch on the scanner and start CaptureOnTouch, I get the error message: "Runtime Error! Program: ..Files (x86)\Canon Electronics\CapureOnTouch\TouchDR.exe abnormal program termination" and CaptureOnTouch exits. So I can't use the scanner! I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software several times but the problem persists. I have tried installing on a second PC and the problem occurs there too. Does anyone know anything more?

Have you removed the transport backup? Install the latest Visual C++ redistributables here. 2005, 2008 and 2015-2022 are the most common. Always install both x86 and x64 versions. These are common libraries used by different programmes. Usually they are installed by the software. If they are missing, this leads to the strangest error messages. You can see which ones are installed under Settings.Apps. You can uninstall outdated versions and replace them with the latest version. https://docs.microsoft.com/de-ch...

There are many devices that cannot satisfactorily process small formats such as A6 via the ADF. Many printed paperbacks are therefore short in A5. Can it handle A6 easily, without any effort?

I haven't used it much yet, but my tests with A5 and A6 were no problem with the automatic feed. However, I would like to point out something that may be of general interest: When using the automatic feeder, the scan quality of photos is very limited. This is apparently due to the fact that the photos are unfortunately scanned exactly where they are curved, which causes reflections. In flatbed mode (i.e. manual) it is absolutely good. Automatic feed AND photo - as I see it - unfortunately leads to much more expensive devices.
