Canon imageFORMULA DR-C340 — Ultra-Compact 100-Sheet Duplex Scanner
Canon's narrowest desktop scanner, built to feed a bigger batch without taking up more desk space. The DR-C340 is just 283 mm wide, scans both sides of a page in one pass at 40 ppm / 80 ipm in colour and mono, and loads up to 100 sheets at once. USB Type-C connectivity, passport scanning without a carrier sheet and a suggested daily volume of up to 7,000 scans make it a step up in capacity for an everyday office scanner.
Quick Glance
Key Features
40 ppm / 80 ipm from a 100-sheet feeder
Both sides of a page are captured in one pass at 40 ppm / 80 ipm in colour and in mono, and the 100-sheet ADF is rated for 4,500 to 7,000 scans a day — the highest feeder capacity in Canon's compact desktop range.
Canon's narrowest desktop scanner
At just 283 mm wide with the tray closed, the DR-C340 fits into workspaces a wider scanner cannot, without giving up the 100-sheet feeder or duplex speed.
Passports without a carrier sheet, cards and long documents
Passports up to 4mm thick scan without needing a carrier sheet (up to 6mm with one), plastic cards up to 1.4mm and long documents up to 6,096mm are all supported on the same feeder.

Need-to-Know
The DR-C340 trades a little top speed for a much bigger 100-sheet feeder, sitting alongside the faster DR-C350 above the 60-sheet DR-C230 and DR-C240.
- The specification page lists a Windows driver only — no Mac software is published for the DR-C340, unlike the DR-C230 and DR-C240. Ask us to confirm Mac support before you order if that matters to you.
- USB only — there is no network or Wi-Fi connection on this model. It connects over USB Type-C to one computer.
- Passports scan up to 4mm thick without a carrier sheet, or up to 6mm with one; plastic cards up to 1.4mm (embossed supported) go through the same feeder.
- The Flatbed Scanner Unit 102 is an optional accessory sold separately — the DR-C340 itself is sheet-fed only, so bound books need a flatbed unit.
| Model | Scan speed (mono) | Feeder | Daily duty cycle |
|---|---|---|---|
| imageFORMULA DR-C240 | 45 ppm / 90 ipm | 60 sheets | 3,500 – 6,000 scans |
| imageFORMULA DR-C340 (this page) | 40 ppm / 80 ipm | 100 sheets | 4,500 – 7,000 scans |
| imageFORMULA DR-C350 | 50 ppm / 100 ipm | 100 sheets | 5,000 – 8,000 scans |
Choose the DR-C340 when feeder capacity matters more than outright speed, and the DR-C350 for the fastest scanning at the same 100-sheet capacity.
