Software Doesn't Work Right

I have removed and reloaded the software so many times I can't even count it anymore. It fails to scan half the time and just freezes. Doesn't recognize the machine even though there is a cord plugged in. I simply hate this thing! I had a ScanSnap for years and never had an ounce of problems with it.

nice options

It loses it's luster because it's a bit prone to losing it's driver capability. so easily

Epson scanner review

Its quick but too easy to make a mistake and quite difficult to undo something you did. The instructions are difficult to understand and the steps are easy to make a mistake with.

Fast Scanner

Overall I like the speed and ease of use with this scanner. My huge issue with it is that when it disconnects from the internet it is a huge pain to try and get it back working. I had to reinstall the software and go through all the steps again. While it does not do it all the time, there should be an easier way for it to reconnect with my wifi.

Great, compact scanner!

I've had this scanner about a year. It scans the pages swiftly and in a year's time it has only jammed once. I love the scan document slow feature, too, for thin receipts.

Just what I wanted

I love this scanner. It is just what I needed, we scan a large amount of bills each month and this has a great clear image and the flexibility I need with labeling. Makes a chore quick and easy

Concerns

The scanner works fine as long as you only want the output in .pdf format. I cannot get it to print or save documents in Word format.

Clunky Interface Poor Quality

I purchased this scanner 8 months ago. I use it primarily for home document management in an essentially paperless environment. My primary tools are office 365 and lucion file center. After 8 months I have given up the scan smart soft ware and the epson scan utilities are just not efficient or user friendly. I cannot scan directly to one note and the ability to set up various profiles is there but difficult and lacks many of the options I need. I plan to put this on ebay to day and go with a more flexible user friendly version. I have called Technical Support 3 times spent an hour each time and just kept getting passed along.

Great machine

I love this device I only have one small complaint and that is that it loses connection with my computer after I turn it off and then back on to scan another document. Other than that it is the.best machine on the market, according to me of course, it beat Fujitsu etc. if they could fix this issue I would give it 5 stars +, instead of 4. Thank you

Great with direct connection not so much wirless

I would have given this rating five stars but it fall short on the WIFI range. I have had this router for several years and I was constantly having trouble connecting wirelessly. After trouble shooting with tech support we discovered it was too far away from my router in another room approx. 60ft away in the hallway. Once we set it via USB it worked great. If your router is in the same room you should be OK otherwise connect direct. Epson needs to improve on the WIFI range.

The setup was easier than I thought...

The set up was easier than I thought it would, I did my sample scan and I am HAPPY with my purchase so far. I brought this based on others in the business showing and sharing that they too use the EPSON ES-500W for their Notary signing businesses... I'm new to this business, moreover; you have to do a lot of scan-backs and this little machine (smile!) I was told can handle the work load...

Getting started was fast and easy.

I bought this a month ago and was dreading the setup and scanning documents. The whole process took me only 15min from start to finish. That included setting file location on computer for the test scan. I was amazed at how fast it scanned and the clarity was awesome just like the original document. If you are thinking of getting this to convert all your paper files to digital I highly recommend this product. I will have so much fun converting to digital and get read of all the papers. Thank you Epson for the clear and logical directions on how to do this.

I love it!

I bought this scanner in September 2018 and it has gotten considerable use, both for scanning in financial documents, as well as scanning in my genealogy documents. While I don't use it for photos (I haven't gotten the protective sheet for photos) I have used it for regular documents. It is fast, as well as easy and is my go to scanner.

I trust EPSON

I've used and prefer EPSON products. But, this ES-500W is not cooperating with me. I want to connect it via wireless. The paper with instructions are easy to follow, but of course the machines have a different goal. The set up is obviously written by engineers and not by lame people like me. I will update later if I manage to connect...

Does it all

This scanner works beautifully. It has enabled me to quickly and efficiently scan hundreds of paper files. The speed is astounding compared to the 3 in one product I previously used. It flawlessly scans both sides of a document. The software set up takes a little time, but it works very well. The scanner has a very small footprint. I wish I had known about this sooner. It is a true time saver. I highly recommend it.

Fast and great quality scans...

By David B.

I rarely write product reviews. I picked this scanner up several weeks ago. I use it strictly for home use. My goal is to digitize much of the documents I've stored in the past in file cabinets and boxes. I dreaded doing that task in the past using a flat bed scanner so I successfully put it off for years. This scanner makes the chore very easy. It is early November and I figured this digitizing chore might take me most of the upcoming winter. After using the Epson ES-500W scanner for one w...

FAST - Best Stand Alone Scanner

By javatoomint78

So far I am very pleased with this stand alone scanner. I have more options than with my All-In-One and the speed in which it scans and imports to laptop is amazing. No jamming to-date. I wish Epson had a "cloud" of some sort to upload to but I do like the options of using google drive and saving to computer or elsewhere as well. The only con is I am unable to get the "scan to email" to work and there doesn't seem to be any searchable information, or website info, to assist.

Wireless, fast and easy to use, the WorkForce ES-500W duplex document scanner cuts down on clutter. Wirelessly scan documents to a PC, Mac, smartphone, tablet or online storage account. The powerful ES-500W makes it all simple. Featuring speeds up to 35 ppm/70 ipm2 and a 50-page Auto Document Feeder, this compact, reliable performer breezes through stacks of documents from business and ID cards to receipts, extra-long pages, and more.

For added value, the scanner includes a TWAIN driver for compatibility with virtually all document management software.
