I’m pretty impressed with this tiny scanner. It feels solidly built. I’ve used a lot of scanners over the years, and must say there is no comparison to a good device when you need to scan volumes.
The scans are very fast, with an almost immediate warm up time. This would be ideal for an auditor for example, that needs to scan documents while on-site. It can scan to a companion app on your smartphone wirelessly thru wifi. The setup didn’t work the first time I launched the app, but as soon as I restarted the wifi network on the scanner, it took. I’d call it a success since the whole setup was under a minute.
You can scan loose leafs of various sizes, and heavy business cards/ID’s are scanned thru a special feeder. Scans can be double or single sided, with an awesome feature to skip blank pages when scanning double sided. It can’t scan anything that can’t be fed thru the machine, so no books or objects. But what it is intended for, it does very well.
This Epson ES-300W would be very good in a pharmacy environment. It takes up very little room, is very fast, and is considerably quieter than the Fujitsu's I’ve had to use. The Fujitsu’s can sometimes jam when scanning smaller prescriptions, and I can’t see that being an issue with this scanner. I’ve experimented with flatbed scanners, and it’s just not realistic to use in a pharmacy setting as they take up too much valuable space and time aligning everything. Archival camera systems are good for fragile books, but not much else, as you have no way of flattening a sheet of paper to get a good scan. The ES-300W has TWAIN drivers so it shouldn’t be a problem to add the scanner within proprietary software (pharmacy, or other program)
The price point on this unit is a bit steep but you’re getting a professional grade scanner and a powerful suite of software for your phone and computer. This is a review for the ES-300W Wireless Portable Duplex Document Scanner that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.
