Epson Workforce ES-580W Wireless Color Duplex Desktop Document Scanner for PC and Mac with 100-sheet Auto Document Feeder (ADF) and Intuitive 4.3" Touchscreen

Buying this was a lifesaver. I work for a local Non-Profit and we needed to save to PDF's 60 years of Newsletters printed 2 sided on legal paper. We are also going to be scanning all our business records for archiving. This is a FAST really reliable two sided scanner that handles the paper really well, along with important very fragile old photographs (in carrier sleeves), getting the photos and the notes handwritten on the back of the photos with ease. Very happy with the unit, great price, easy to use, and a workhorse. We also like that the top feeder comes off with ease, allowing us to store the unit in a small space. The only silly thing with it is the USB port is on the back of the unit if you want to scan to a thumb drive. Minor design fail, but you can add a USB extension dock like we did to get the port in front of the unit. The software to direct scan to your computer is simple to use, is intelligent (skipping blank pages, etc.) and easy to set-up. We also programmed the scanner to do emails to our Secretary and Treasurer, as well as FTP the files to our server.

This is working great. It can handle all kinds of paper. Somehow pages never stick together, which makes the workflow much faster.

Scanner fits nicely in work space. Scans quickly and it was easy to set up.

Generally very pleased with this - very fast, but for the price it should have much easier ways to do smaller docs like business cards, and to do OCR. I still haven't found how to do OCR, but I'll follow up with Epson.

This scanner is fast and clear. Easy to install in less than 5 minutes to multiple computers. I have used a copier scanner for years. I am so happy to have found this printer.

Excelente producto !! Muy buena relación precio calidad

I have received 5 of these types of scanners in the past 2 weeks; two ES-500W II, and then three ES-580W. Upon opening each box and doing the 1st scan, all of them have lines across the top of the page, down the left side and across the bottom. 1 of the ES-580W scanners was purchased through Amazon, but the other 2 were ordered through the Epson store. After speaking with Epson technical support, they are thinking to receive these many defective scanners, that possibly whomever is selling these on Amazon, they are defective so we ordered directly through the Epson store. Upon receiving the 1st one, it too had the same lines, so we shipped it back for a replacement and it too is exhibiting the same lines, but worse. So all in all, Epson is having a serious problem with these scanners because I cannot believe after receiving 5 of these where every one of them has the same issue, that this is a "fluke". I had their ES-500W for 5 years and it worked great - none of these issues until the Power button would not turn on. So we replaced it with a newer model since the ES-500W is no longer available.

I've been working as a mobile Notary doing loan signings for the last 9 months. Almost all of these need to be scanned and sent back to the title company within a couple of hours of the signing before shipping the hard copies back via FedEx or UPS. I tested my Canon all-in-one by scanning a 46 page signing (had to do it in 2 batches because the feed on the Canon is only 25 pages). It took 14 minutes. I scanned the exact same document with this scanner and it took slightly more than 1 minute. Man, what a time-saver!!! I also use it in my truck with a 150 watt inverter and it works perfectly, so I can now scan docs on the road, which is really a game changer for me. I absolutely LOVE this scanner!!! I can scan a document with mixed page sizes (which I CAN'T do with the Canon) without any problems at all.
