Customer Ratings & Reviews

The very first thing I noticed about the Epson WorkForce ES-C220 Compact Document Scanner was, well, just how very compact it really is. My first thought was that there was no way something that occupied such a limited footprint could be so functional. But my thinking was wrong. But first things first. Unpacking the Epson scanner was relatively easy and simple. I have to admit there is a lot of plastic and tape. A little too much in my opinion. After getting everything unpacked, I glanced through the Quick Start Guide. The setup appeared to also be quite easy and simple, and indeed it was...connecting the power supply, downloading the software, and then it was ready for scanning. Although the software phase of the setup was simple and easy, it is also a bit time-consuming. I don't know if there were issues with the internet connection or what, but between the software download, installation and the firmware update, it took right at ten minutes. One of the first things Epson does after all the software has been installed is to walk you through a verification process to ensure the scanner is working properly. I, for one, truly appreciated this step. I scanned a basic text document and was extremely impressed at how accurate the scan was. There was not a single mis-scanned character. When prompter to save, I chose to save it as a PDF file. There are several other Save options including "Searchable PDF," "JPEG," and "TIFF," to name a few. After scanning a simple document, I scanned a photo and saved it as a JPEG file. I was actually impressed by just how good the scanned photo looked after I saved it and then opened it up. It was every bit as good as the original. I continued my scanning test using various documents, photos and receipts. There is a trial version of a receipt scanner program that is good for 30 days. It seems to be quite good, and does just about anything you would want to do as far as tracking receipts goes. There is a rather hefty $99.00 license fee if you decide you want to continue using the software after the 30-day trial. One of the greatest selling points of the Epson WorkForce ES-C220 Scanner is the fact that with one pass you can scan both sides of a document. Talk about a time-saver! It takes no longer to scan two sides as it does one, and both modes are super fast...and I do mean super fast. This is true whether you are scanning text or images. I am completely sold on the ES-C220. It's super fast scanning speed, it ultra small footprint, it's ease of use, combined with Epson quality...this is the perfect scanner for home or even a small office. I highly recommend you give this scanner some very serious consideration when it comes to purchasing your next scanner!

In today's age of home-based working, maintaining a clean and organized workspace has never been more vital. The WorkForce ES-C220 seamlessly integrates into any home office set-up, promising to make piles of paperwork obsolete and thus significantly reducing clutter. I love how compact it is, which isn't just a visual treat but a practical solution, saving an impressive 60% of desk space. Notably, this compactness doesn’t compromise its functionality, it's the epitome of the adage "small but mighty." Functionality-wise, the ES-C220 is every modern office's dream. Its dual-side scanning at speeds of up to 30 ppm showcases its efficiency, while the 20-page Auto Document Feeder ensures that bulk scanning tasks aren’t a hassle. A feature that particularly stood out to me was its capability to handle documents of diverse sizes, ranging up to 8.5" x 120". This versatility ensures that no document, no matter its size, is left out of your digital records. Speaking of records, the Epson ScanSmart software is key in streamlining the post-scanning process with features like previews, emailing options, and direct uploads. The automatic file name suggestion was a lifesaver, aiding in maintaining an organized digital filing system without manually renaming each document. A nod must also be given to its intelligent image adjustments. Cropping, paper skew correction, and dirt detection guarantee that the scans aren't just digital replicas but enhanced versions of the physical documents. The 600dpi resolution ensures clarity, and the creation of searchable PDFs simplifies digital navigation, a crucial feature for those who deal with extensive documents. In conclusion, the WorkForce ES-C220 is more than just a scanner. It’s a holistic solution to document management in a home office setting. Coming from the #1 best-selling scanner brand it's a testament that bigger isn't always better. This modern marvel has seamlessly blended compactness and efficiency, making it an indispensable asset for professionals who value organization and quality.

I was very pleasantly surprised with the Epson WorkForce ES-C220 Compact desktop document scanner. I used the scanner on both macOS and Windows 11 computers. Set up involved downloading software "app" from Epson's website.There was also an excessive amount of blue tape that had to be removed and a few were very hard to get out. The scanner connects to your computer via a USB cable. The quirky thing about this is that the unit itself has a USB C connection while the other end of the cable is a regular USB end, which most computers no longer have which means that you will have to have or purchase an adapter to use this machine. I found that the included software was very clunky and not terribly helpful. Ended up deleting from computer. The scanner can scan several different sized documents and does 2 sided scanning as well. The scanner extender that you are to use when scanning full sized pages seem to be very flimsy plastic and I can definitely see them breaking before very long. It is not a heavy duty or durable machine that can withstand a lot of moving.

Works as it should. Easy set up. Compact design. ..

This is definitely a very fast scanner. The parts are very cheap, so be careful what you touch and treat it gently.

Compact and quick. I had a little problem setting it up on my Mac but I called Epson customer service and they were able to help me out.

Got 2 months out of this scanner before it died.. never again with Epson. Tech support was a disaster..
