Canon imageFORMULA R40

Our take

Best for mixed document types

The R40 takes ID cards, receipts and 3-metre-long banners through the same 60-sheet ADF without flinching. Nine programmable job buttons on the front make it idiot-proof. Currently sold by Amazon directly with low stock — buy fast if you want one.
