  • QuestionDoes it scan slides

    Asked by slides.

    • Answer Hi slides, No, you cannot scan slides using the ES-50 Scanner. Slide scanning requires a transparency unit (TPU). Higher-end Epson phot scanners have TPUs, like the Epson Perfection V600 Photo Scanner, which is currently in stock at Bestbuy.com. (Inventory levels can change.) Regards, Mark - The Epson Team.

  • QuestionCan you scan a business card?

    Asked by Markb.

    • Answer Yes you can scan credit cards, business cards, envelopes, documents, etc. Certain items such as photos or odd-shaped items will need a thin plastic "carrier sheet" to place it in so that the machine doesn't jam. If the business cards have raised letters you may need to do this, but most should work fine. You can look up the user guide for the Epson ES 50 for more information on what can and cannot be scanned.
