There are some really fancy scanners out there -- twice the cost. This is the best value scanner -- so nice I've bought it twice. Notary Public/Signing Service -- mobile capable.

Notary Public - Best Working Scanner for the Service & Price

EVERY WEEK I HAVE TO INSTALL DRIVERS IT WONT SAVE. ITS A GOO SCANNED BUT YOU NEED TO KEEP INSTALLING DRIVERS

DRIVERS SETTING WONT SAVE

I've had this for about a year, with intermittent use. I have had absolutely no problems. It is fast, compact and reliable. The OCR works far better than expected. I originally got it for a project that fell through. I was thinking of returning it but it performed so well that I kept it for personal use.

Over achiever

I have had this scanner for 3 years now and until today have never had an issue with it. It is much faster than ones I have used previously. I love that the duplex just as fast as single sided. I had to uninstall and reinstall today and the front feed button no longer works since doing that but still I have no complaints. I believe the problem is storm related.

Fast and reliable

I've had this item over two years and about to buy the wireless. The speed of scanning my document has saved me time. This can scan cards, id's and pictures, which help tremendously.

Saved Time

Had this scanner for over a year now, and have had no problems or issues with it at all. The hardware design is great: when it's closed up it's protected from dust or foreign object from falling inside.

The software is.. ok. It does the job, but would be nice if you could have a drop down history of 'save to' locations longer than 4 items. We regularly save to 6 locations on the server and find it tedious to have to re-type or re-browse to each location.

No complaints per se, just a little friendly feedback.

Excellent Scanner, Software could use a bit more flixibiliy

As a mobile notary, I needed something that could scan quickly and this machine is excellent at scanning. I can scan 200 pages in around 6 minutes.

Works Great

I have owned for about 2 years. It will NOT scan when I push
the scan button. It just stopped working. I had to delete and add the scanner back. Still having problems with scanner.

Doesn't work

I have been using my Epson ES-400 scanner in my home office for several years. I recently closed my home office and moved my scanner with me to my new job. It is the best piece of office equipment I have ever bought.

Love It

I have enjoyed a similar one at work of another brand, but was more expense. This is a third of the price and does the same exact thing and very compact! I love it! I use it to keep all my file remote instead of a file cabinet filled of papers. My only downside to these scanners, is when they think there is an error of a double scan. So if you want to tape two or more receipts to one paper, or carbon copy is scanned, it thinks there is an error of duplicated accidental scan. This is not the case, this also happened on the more expense brand at work. It is worth every penny. I have scanned over 500+ sheets and have had it for a year, going strong! My only suggestion is when scanning receipts, to make sure the sides align close the receipts, if not it will bunch of in the rollers. I expect this to last a long time. I have had an Epson printer that lasted forever, but upon being so out dated, I upgraded. Epson is a wonderful brand I have not had any issues with.

Quick, Fast, Easy Editable Scanner

I've had this little workhorse for at least a couple of years. Easy to set up, takes up very little desk space and it's worked flawlessly. I'd buy one again in a heartbeat.

Great document scanner with a small footprint

Epson-400

A complete package for the right price. It is definitely worth the financial sacrifice. A keeper, a long term companion, worth utilizing and attention.

One of the best products, accompanied by features and softwa

This scanner is definitely a good one. It is high-quality and compact; it was also very easy to set up and use. It works very well for our small office!

There are only two things that I would change. First, I am not able to have anything taped to the back of a document: if something is, it will not go through because it detects a double-feed. (It is sometimes nice to retain original, handwritten notes.) Second, the scanning software had a small quirk. When deleting unnecessary pages, the program takes you back to the first scanned page after clicking the delete button, rather than keeping its place in the document and allowing you to make a new selection. This is just a bit frustrating when there are a few hundred pages.

Good purchase

I purchased my Workforce ES-400 over a year ago and i am generally pleased with it.

It is easy to operate once you get the hang of it. The user manual leaves a lot to be desired and never quite answers my questions. Support quickly responded to my questions and assisted in solving the few problems I have had.

Biggest limitation is its capacity. I do a lot of 150-175 page scans for uploading documents and have to divide them up into 50 page parts and upload each part.

Occasionally the ES-400 just stops working. So far following instructions from support and rebooting solved problem

General Observations

Bought two months ago, does exactly as advertised. Would have given five stars except it had stopped working, tried to download free updates but was convinced online to purchase new programming that we later discovered was the exact same that came with the machine. Epson refused to reimburse the purchase, so we're stuck with a duplicate program we don't need and out the cost as well.

Great machine

I've had this scanner/product for months now and have put a lot of paper through it. However, from time to time, the wheels make a noticeable squealing noise that I have yet to determine how to solve. This issue pops up from time to time, and is not constant, though it is odd.

Maybe it is the throughput? Or, well, maybe there is a better way to design the auto-feed mechanism. I don't know. Generally, though, I have been quite satisfied with it.

I like this scanner and it fulfills the purpose I got it for. As such, I will not hold this against the rating. :-)

Generally fine, sometimes squeals

Very good scanner but they are advertising a scan to email feature that is non existent. I had to return it because scan to email was not there. They failed to mention that you can only scan to email if you have outlook express, Microsoft Live mail, and other mail systems that no longer exist.

Too bad scan to email is not possible

I bought this eight months ago. Worked good at first. Now has a line down the middle on scanning.

Easy to use. Scans with a line down the middle.

I purchased a small hand held scanner last year and was so pleased with the quality and durability it was my go to when upgrading to a larger unit. I travel and my equipment covers a lot of miles and usage. Thank you for being so instrumental in the success of my business. I couldn't do it without your great products!

Love my Epson products!

Does not work with window update there is no support from window or Epson

Does not work with window 10 new update

Double-sided scans continually have a line down the pages, even after continuously cleaning.

Great features, simple to use, good scans.

When it works it works well. However, when it decides to stop working it is a pain to get it working again.

Stops scanning

I bought this a month or so ago and it does what I need and more.

Does more than I anticipated

I purchased this scanner several months ago and it has saved me time and money. I can make copies of receipts and many important documents and store them on a digital file. I cleaned out my filing cabinet. I am very happy with this scanner.

Easy scanning and emailing

Love the product. It is easy to use and scans to both sides automatically and you can turn pages or delete them. Easy easy easy!

Epson ES 400 Sanner

I brought a scan separated from the 3 in 1 printers because when the ink in the printer is out the printer scanner stops working. I own three other printers that are useless to me when it is on of ink. So the scanner doesn't work. This Epson solves all of that and allows me to continue working without missing a beat until I get ink for my printer. Something 3 in 1 printers should adjust to allow scanner usage when the ink is out. 
Thanks Epson!

Great Buy!!

Arrived today much earlier than expected. Worked as soon as I figured out I needed to download the drivers. Not a big deal. Duplex, Auto Color, fast. So far meets expectations. If it continues to do so I will return and update the review.

Worked as needed

I purchased this back in November 2020 and the entire process was easy to download as well scan and email many documents since. I am very pleased with this product!

Exceptional Product!

I purchased this compact scanner for my very small home office summer of 2020, I have never been so impressed with all the other scanner's I've had over the last 25 yrs... Epson has won me over..
