Workforce ES-580W Wireless Color Duplex Tax Receipt & Desktop Document Scanner for PC and Mac with 100-sheet Auto Feeder (ADF), Intuitive 4.3' Touchscreen

I purchased this scanner as a replacement for my Brother ADS-2800W, which was a fantastic scanner but is not compatible with Windows 11 and Brother will no longer be upgrading drivers, etc. to support it. The Epson Workforce ES-580W is a perfect replacement. It was easy to install and has all the same functionality that I was seeking (and it's compatible with Windows 11). It has a smaller footprint than my old scanner, which is an added plus. As I try to avoid keeping paper files, I scan a lot of documents to file them digitally (and they are backed up into the cloud). I also scan receipts, bank statements, etc. into Quicken, which requires a TWAIN driver, which the Epson ES-580W provides. It scans quickly and with good quality, whether to PDF or an image file. I'm very happy with this purchase.

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 THE BEST PURCHASE IVE MADE IN YEARS! User friendly. Easy Install. Fast. I love it! Made my life so much easier!

When preparing to move cross-country, we decided to get rid of a ton of paperwork. Scanning, then shredding, was the best solution. This has worked great, but the setup can be tricky. It was set up to scan directly to a network folder. It worked great right from the device menu. Load with documents, select the network destination, then scan. After a firmware update, it stopped working, and I had to resort to the Epson software to do the same thing. What worked perfectly on the device now had to be done in an application. Restarting, factory reset, nothing made any difference. It still works fine, but it was easier to do on the device, without having to move back and forth between my desktop and the device when they aren't side by side. Otherwise, we scanned and shredded thousands of pages we didn't need to lug around. Now we have a ton of PDF files to archive away, and we'll probably never need them anyway.

Easy to use and set up. The scans are very clear.

Got this scanner just for home use. My old Brother printer's sheet feeder broke so I had been scanning documents manually, one side at a time. So I decided to splurge on this scanner. It's more than I need because I don't have that many long documents to regularly scan. But I spent a few days scanning numerous documents and the scanner worked great. I don't have any complaints. It's fast, it works over Wifi and it's got a small footprint.

This scanner does not come ready to go. You must put it together than figure out how you put software in system. It did come with disc, but not flash drive or a write ways to download the software. For the amount of money $450.00 I would think that Epson would make this very easy. The disc they gave will not go in my computer so that does not work. The only instructions given is how to put it together then you have to figure it out yourself. I did go to a Epson web site but I did not have time yet to see that that works. It this point I can not use the scanner. I would think the instructions would tell you very thing you need to know to use the scanner. The computer now days some don't have a CD slot so the CD is not going to work. If the scanner does not work with what looks like a flash drive slot then I will need to return scanner. The Grinch

Excellent scanner with a small footprint. Works well, configures locally attached, software is good, scans very quickly (even double-sided). I bought this because our multi purpose printer scans single sided and doesn't work that well. This little guy flys through scans with great quality. Well worth it.

Muy satisfecho con el producto. Es muy práctico, rápido y eficiente.

Excelente scanner, rápido, fácil de usar e extremamente útil! Eu recomendo!

PROS: - Flexible reliable document scanner. Can scan-to-network drive and make use of presets directly on the scanner without having to install special software or drivers on any computers or tablets in the house. Software/drivers were supplied, but they're not needed to operate this unit. - Reliable sheet feeding; paper jams that do occur are usually limited to a missed staple or cut-outs on the the paper, or setting safety settings to high/conservative. - Successfully scanned >25,000 pages of material within the past 6 weeks and it's very reliable for both one-off scans and near continuous scanning over several hours at a time. - Can access settings via HTTPS page on local LAN. - Auto skipping of blank pages and auto-correction of paper skew are fantastic! - Scanner is easy to access and clean - the moving parts pop-out and pop-in intuitively. - Picture quality is limited (see CON below); however, configurable cropping and shadow delete are nice features to have when bulk-scanning hundreds of old physical photos. Color tones and contrast appear good compared to trial-and-error flatbed scanner, and dust on pics isn't as noticeable. - Nice options for image compression. - Nice small footprint on desk (when trays are retracted). - Handles very large documents (>100 pages)....simply by feeding the paper into the scanner in batches. - Accepts paper of differing sizes within the same scan into a single PDF (eg: scanning receipts). CONS: - Picture resolution could be improved particularly on photos (product is limited to max 600 dpi). 1200 DPI would be nice. - Would be nice to set a timer for confirming/committing the last page of a scan. At present, pressing a button to confirm last page is required. An optional 5-second countdown timer would be useful. - Additional image format outputs would be useful (eg: GIF, BMP, etc). All told, a small but reliable scanner that's great for document scanning.

EXCELENTE, RAPIDA Y MUY FUNCIONAL

Muito bom! Além das expectativas! Recomendo!
