Epson WorkForce ES-50 Portable Sheet-Fed Document Scanner for PC and Mac

So far I have been liking this scanner! Software that comes with it is great, plus the scanner moves pretty fast. It's only one page at a time and does not do double sided, but the speed of the software and intake make up for this. Image quality is pretty great in color and in black and white documents.I had to make some minor changes to the default settings. For starters, the base resolution (200 DPI) is pretty low and makes smaller text harder to read, so I bumped it up to 300 and documents are looking much better now. You may also need to turn down the brightness for some documents, especially photos. The scanner has a very bright light, which is great for black and white documents but can cause issues for color documents.Overall really liking this product so far, and was just what I needed for my workflow! Saves the space of keeping my hunky printer / scanner around.

Not knocking any stars, because I should have researched this better. I have a Chromebook for my work and needed something to scan documents, especially while on the go. This doesn't work with Chrome, unfortunately. I do have an old Windows-based Surface Pro that I can use with it, but it's a pain to go back and forth between laptops. As far as how it works, it does well. Scans quickly and cleanly, and everything is easy to organize.

I ordered this scanner today in the early afternoon to do my taxes. It arrived in just a few hours via Prime. It was very straightforward to set up using a video I found on YouTube and within just another few hours all my many tax documents are scanned and saved. I couldn't be more pleased with this scanner so far. Will really enjoy the small size so I can take it anywhere.

I bought two of these for a medical practice and as long as the scanner is powered up it works very well. But if the device goes to sleep, the device May no longer be available because it disappears in the hardware list. Once that happens it could be several hours before it reappears. I called Epson support and they told me that the scan to utility does not have the capability of turning the sleep mode off. The WIA driver stops working in Windows 10 and 11 even though it says the WIA service is running. Disabling the WIA driver completely disables the device. The device will not run solely on Twain. Keep that in mind before you buy this device. When it does work it does a fine job of scanning medical IDs and DL's.

I couldn't believe how easy it was to set this thing up. It worked the first time I tried using it. This thing is fast, too! Scan quality was adequate for my needs- It's a document scanner, not a photo scanner. For a hundred bucks and saving me a trip to Kinko's, this machine is well worth it! I used a Mac with a USB to USB C adapter. Spending $13 on two adapters instead of $150 for the USB-C scanner made more sense to me. Doesn't take up a ton of space which is a very nice perk. I highly recommend buying this scanner.

This is so easy to set up and use! It's quick and the software is user-friendly. The size of the actual device is perfect for carrying it on the go. I haven't had any issue with the scan quality, and I've scanned multiple kinds of documents, including children's artwork.

One of the best purchases I made for work. I am constantly scanning documents and it is so nice to have it right at my desk.

I love everything about this scanner. I purchased the 1st one approximately 2 years ago and bought the warranty. It paid off. The scanner stopped working properly and Asurion returned my money to purchase another one. The scanner was delivered in one day! However, Amazon is really CHEAP with the shipping. They did not put the item in a shipping box or a shipping mailer, which is less expensive than the box. I would have gladly given 5 stars, but I'm sick of Amazon shipping items either without a box to conceal the item or shipping items that should not be shipped in a shipping mailer, which can cause damage!
