Epson WorkForce ES-50 Portable Sheet-Fed Document Scanner for PC and Mac

The Epson Workforce ES-50 Portable Sheet-Fed Document Scanner is a compact, portable and easy-to-use scanner that works well for scanning documents, but not for small receipts. It requires a USB port, does not have two-sided scanning, but has an automatic feeding function to scan both sides of a page. It is not compatible with iOS, but the ES-60W version has wireless connectivity for use with Android/iOS phones and tablets. The scanner driver is compatible with OS 10.6 through 10.14, but the included ScanSmart software supports OS 10.11 through 10.14. It does not have a port for saving directly to a flash drive. After scanning a document, it offers several options to save or send, including to Dropbox, Google Drive, Evernote, OneDrive and email. The naming of scanned documents can be tailored to a preferred format. Customers have mixed reviews about the product. Some say it is fantastic, easy to use and scans fast, while others have had issues such as producing a grey or black line in their PDF scans or experiencing difficulty in scanning small receipts. Some found the instructions unclear and that the grip of the scanner to the paper was not strong enough. Others were prevented by installation issues with their PCs. A customer claimed that it works flawlessly on the go as it is compact and easy to transport, never lagging or blurring the PDFs.
