Does a great job for what it is.
Like others, I found a mountain of photos after my mother died. Many old family pictures that I couldn’t just discard but took up a lot of room. I bought this to scan and save those photos to a smaller package. Works well for the purpose.For color photos this unit is great. It’s fast, easy to use, portable. Software has very basic controls for adjusting image quality.One big caveat, it does NOT work on old, glossy, black and white photos. Hard to explain the effect but the image itself is only black and white with no grayscale so everything is washed out. Having to use an old, slow, flatbed scanner for these.Overall I’m happy with my purchase. Pretty good value for what it offers.

Very handy and efficient
I would say I have one of the smallest work spaces in my office, and this allows me to do my job quickly, and allows me to reserve as much desk space as possible. Also convenient not having to get up to go to the printer! Weâve purchased them for every desk space now!

Epson ES-50 Portable Scanner
I have scanned almost 2000 photos so far and have at least that to go.All things considered, I could not ask for a better scanner. It was inexpensive, portable, plenty fast and just works. Note: outside of scanning the text on the back of pictures and stitching it to the front, I have not done any text scanning. The stitching option is wonderful.The only 3 issues that I have (I tried to explain my work arounds) and I consider them minor are :1. You sometimes have to reorient dark photos or use a light background slightly larger than the photo or the scanner will crop out the dark parts. This is understandable since the rollers are black.2. Very thin high gloss photos have to have constant pressure in and out (manual by pushing and pulling the photo) or the rollers will slip on the picture. Thicker, high gloss photos don’t do this.3. The app needs some work as it appears to be outdated. Won’t do some of the features on larger files as it will crash and close. Work around save the file as is and do what you need to do thru a Microsoft or whatever photo editing app. This only happens on really large pictures.I did not have any problems with gray scale or color scanning at the max 1200BPI (once I figured out the app).

Mac Compatible, doesn’t appear to scan straight
I purchased this because I desperately needed a new printer to print something, and the only one available was a wireless printers/scanner that *only* lets you scan through their app if you have an account – really sending up red flags for me if one were scanning sensitive documents! So I splurged and got this as well. Is it small and portable? Yes. Did it work easily with my macbook pro? Also yes.My main problem is nothing scans it straight. It’s great if you’re wanted to make sure you have copies of mail or receipts (I suggest tapping to an 8.5×11 regular sheet of paper), but if you want an aligned document without a small black line on the top left edge of the paper? Not your device. Yes you can crop, but it never quite looks right.Anyway. It’s a decent little device and does what I need for record keeping! Just not perfect with the alignment.One other note: I scanned a document I had printed that I needed to sign, and wanted a copy of said signature on this document. The whole thing is just…not the greatest quality? Looks kind of dated. Can’t really explain it. Really picked up the ink details which I guess is good, but visually looked low quality.Buy if: You want something easy that gives you a bunch of options to upload to computer, onedrive, email, etc. Also great for record keeping that doesn’t really need perfection at the end of the day. Also allows for cropping and adjustments in the software.Don’t buy if: You desire straight, 8.5×11 documents. She doesn’t play that way!

Little in size, BIG is value
Easy to set up, easy to use! Compact size is perfect for my desk! I had to purchase a scanner for our business and had been looking at larger models. I ran across this small scanner. I was highly skeptical it would be of any quality, but given the price, thought I could risk it and if it didn’t work out, I would purchase something different. Boy, has this thing worked great! EASY, EASY, EASY to set up. Connected to my computer with a USB, easy software download and I was up and running. I’ve scanned documents of all sizes. Easy to feed into machine. Love this so much, just ordered one for my personal office at home!

Pretty impressive scanner
I received this scanner a few days ago so I cannot speak to its long-term performance or durability, but so far it works GREAT. The software was a little difficult to install & setup. The software is abit clunky to use. But the software & scanner are more reliable than my MUCH more expensive desktop scanner. And I can use this scanner in my lap as I scan! It scans color documents. It does not do 2-sided scanning directly, but if you scan side 1, then turn the document over & insert the reverse side into the scanner & click â+scanâ it will scan the reverse side. When saved to a computer the results are the same as those from a 2-sided scanner. The same button can be used to add multiple pages to a scan. All in all a pretty impressive scanner.

I loved this product when it arrived, but only used it a few times and it just stopped working, despite trying new connections, multiple computers. Instructions say to attach USB directly to computer – my MAC OS laptop doesn’t have a USB port. Big disappointment. Makes me hesitant to order a replacement.
