This week there's everything you need to scan images, print images, chuck 'em on a wall, and so on and so forth.

To get things into a computer Canon is trumpeting its entry into the workgroup scanner market with the DR-2080C. It's credited at scanning up to 20 pages per minute and comes bundled with OmniPage Special Edition Optical Character Recognition software and a scanning utility allowing users to save scanned images in PDF format. It's available now from Canon Australia for AU$2084.50.

To get things out of a computer Canon have also announced the Colour N-series printers, the A4 compatible N1000 for AU$1,599 and its big brother, the A3+ N2000 for AU$1,999. Canon says they both have an output of up to 20 pages per minutes at 1,200 x 600 dpi in monochrome and colour.

To display things from a computer Toshiba has come out with the TLP-560 projector, which weighs 3.2 kgs and utilises short throw lens technology, which Toshiba claims gives it a projected image size of twice that of standard lenses. It retails at AU$6,949.

To stop unwanted thing from getting onto your computer Symantec has released Norton Antivirus 2003, which hits the shelves at AU$109.95, with an upgrade available for AU$79.95. The latest version promises to scan the big four instant messenger systems for viruses, and aims to detect and remove worms and Trojan horses before new virus definitions have been created.

To manage things on a mobile computer Intel has combined its LANDesk Management Suite with XcelleNet's Afaria mobile/handheld management software to produce LANDesk Mobile Manager, which it cites as being able to provide management support for workers who depend on mobile PCs and PDAs for access to business critical information and applications. Prices start from US$64 per seat, with discounts for purchases of 100 or more seats.

And there's this: Adaptec has announced the release of four Ultra320 SCSI RAID products. The SCSI RAID 2120S is a single channel controller and goes for AU$1043.90, while the SCSI RAID 2200S is a two-channel controller retailing for AU$1648.90. The SCSI RAID 2015S and 2010S are both zero channel RAID cards, going for AU$603.90.
