Description
The DR-C225 II is a useful fit for a desk where a conventional scanner's long input and output trays would get in the way. Ordinary pages feed from the top and return toward the top through a U-turn path, helping keep the working area compact. Cable management helps organize the connections behind it.
A straight paper path provides a separate option for suitable thicker originals and cards. CaptureOnTouch lets you save recurring scan settings, while automatic duplex capture records both sides together. This is the USB-connected DR-C225 II; it connects to a computer for its scanning and file-management workflow.
Features
- Upright document handling: top feeding and top ejection reduce the space needed for ordinary paper.
- Selectable paper paths: choose the appropriate U-turn or straight path for the original.
- Automatic duplex: scans front and back in one pass at up to 50 page images per minute.
- One-touch jobs: CaptureOnTouch can store frequently used scan settings and destinations.
- Image adjustment: supports text enhancement, deskewing, automatic color detection and blank-page skipping.
- Application integration: TWAIN support and Windows ISIS drivers connect compatible scanning software.

Choose the right paper path
Match the feed selection to your paper before starting a batch. If pages will not feed, check the paper guides and path settings, then follow Canon's model-specific troubleshooting instructions instead of forcing the stack.
| Everyday paper | Use the U-turn path for supported ordinary documents and a compact working footprint. |
|---|---|
| Thicker originals | Select the straight path when the manual specifies it; allow clear exit space in front. |
| Plastic or embossed cards | Check thickness, orientation and the manual-feed instructions before loading. |
| Oversized sheets | Folio mode can combine a correctly folded supported original; it is not an 11-inch-wide feeder. |

Common questions
Does this model have Wi-Fi?
No. The DR-C225 II uses USB 2.0. The similarly named DR-C225W II is the wireless version.
Can it scan both sides automatically?
Yes. Duplex capture reads both faces during one pass, so a two-sided stack does not need to be turned over manually.
Can I scan a bound book?
The main scanner is sheet-fed. Bound or fragile originals need an appropriate flatbed workflow; do not place a book in the feeder.
Can it scan to cloud storage?
Supported destinations are available through CaptureOnTouch and the connected computer. A compatible account, software configuration and internet connection are required.
