    Good scanner for general use (photos, documents, etc.) Bit slower than expected. However, well pleased with purchase. As a light user, this scanner more than meets my needs.

    I got this scanner to scan film I develop at home. It was a little frustrating to set up on my MAC at first but after that the GUI is fairly intuitive! Overall I would recommend this scanner to friends!

    ...it is too heavy and big. It occupies a lot of room. I also wish it has an auto feeder so I don’t need to scan one page at a time.

    After ten years of using my Epson 4180 Photo Scanner, I THOUGHT that there'd be some improvements. Yes! The Scanner works! And IT does a fine job. BUT, the included software, instead of "going forward", regressed to a childish approach. What used to take two or three "clicks" now takes many, many more and you HAVE to look closely to do a very simply task - SAVING THE SCAN TO THE FOLDER that YOU WANT TO USE! NOT one pre-selected by Epson!

    Using this scanner to scan many old family pictures. It is working well, though fairly labor intensive. Be sure to check the options in all modes of scanning.

    Lots of Multi Function Printers also scan but at very low resolution level. With digital pictures at 12MP and above why use a scanner that is low resolution.

    Set-up Disc for the computer did not properly work and I had to go to Geek Squad and they got it working by using a Microsoft program that they found on the net. I am writing Epson a complaint letter. This scanner was advertised to work with Windows 10 but without Geek Squad help I would have had to return the scanner.
