A device for quick and precise determination of a scan start point for an image scanner is disclosed. The image scanner includes a photo-processing device and a scanning platform for placing thereon a document to be scanned. The scanning platform is printed with a background region and a color block which are of different colors and located in front of the scan start point of the photo-processing device, and the color block is enclosed with the background region, and has a specified point therein being a predetermined shift to the scan start point along a specific direction. The photo-processing device moves a predetermined distance L0 from the home position to a pre-scan position overlapping with the color block, then moves a calculated distance L1 from the pre-scan position to the specified point, and moves another predetermined distance L2 from the specified point to the scan start point along the specific direction to start scanning. The distance L1 can be automatically adjusted to cover the installation error of the photo-processing device. For another image scanner disclosed herein, the movement of the distance L0 can be omitted by having the color blocks located at the home position which serves as the pre-scan position.
