Description

Scan all your documents with the Epson WorkForce ES-500WII for your work at home or in the office. This scanner achieves a scan speed of 35 pages per minute for color and black and white documents. The automatic document feeder makes this scanner even more productive. You can put up to 50 pages in the input tray and the WorkForce ES-500WII does all the work. It also automatically scans double-sided, so you don't have to manually turn the sheets. If there's a blank page in your stack, the scanner will automatically skip it. With this document scanner, you can scan files without a PC or laptop.

Excellent no-nonsense document scanner

  • Wifi
  • Storage & export options
  • Easy to use
  • Max 600dpi

Scans go up to 600dpi which is fine for documents but I wouldn't use it to digitize a photo archive. The scanner is easy to install. Once configured for the wifi network, Windows 10 found the scanner without issues. There are many storage options (USB, email, network & cloud). You can even create contacts. It is remarkable that the scanner is set to 200dpi by default. Fortunately, this is easy to adjust and save. I use the scanner via wifi with storage to a network folder. The unit is compact and can be placed on a 30cm deep bookshelf. The scanner will not survive a fall of 80cm but the build quality is fine. I expect the hardware to last longer than the scanner is recognized by Windows. The only thing I miss is a physical button to switch between single-sided and double-sided scanner. This can only be done via the settings on the display. Still fine but for my use the only variable is whether I need to scan single or double sided and this feels like a missed opportunity.
