Review: I would ignore the negative reviews… - I love this scanner! I don’t really get the negative reviews. For the price and the functionality you get, it’s amazing. I’m the type of person who does tons of research before I buy most anything. This includes scanners like this. I was fairly hesitant due to some negative reviews, but I decided to take a chance because I really loved how small, compact and minimalistic this was. I am so happy with my purchase. I have a Mac and setup was a breeze. The minimalist design and the tiny footprint is exactly what I was looking for You don’t have to pay for any additional software for it to function (but I do think you have to download their app, which is free… I don’t know if this is an absolute requirement to use the scanner, but I installed their app because it comes with great feature that make it extremely easy to manage scans and save them. I actually love the features that it provides at no cost so I would recommend downloading it… again, it’s FREE) It just does what it’s supposed to do. One thing to notice is that due to its minimal size if you’re a bit of a perfectionist OCD person like myself you have to be a little more careful about how you load each page to ensure the scans are fed evenly. I assume this is an issue with any scanner but even moreso with something that’s as compact as this and doesn’t have the guides to ensure precise feeding. If you’re looking for a compact scanner, that is efficient, effective and easy to use, I would absolutely recommend this.
Review: Gets the job done for documents - So far so good. Scanned documents are decent quality but not great. Probably not the best scanner for graphics due to image quality. Simple to use. Downloaded the driver, which was straightforward. Bought the case to store it in. Meets my needs and doesn’t take up lots of space. Happy w/ this purchase!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can it scan two sided documents?**
A: The ES-50 is single-sided, but it does have an automatic feeding function that allows you to scan one side, flip the page over and scan the reverse without having to click the Scan button again. Once all the pages are scanned, you click Finish to save the multi-page document. - The Epson Scanner Team

**Q: Will the scanner work with an iPhone?**
A: The ES-50 model is only compatible with computers running Windows 7, 8, 10 or Mac OS 10.11 - 10.14 and requires a USB port. You would want to consider the ES-60W, which is the version of the scanner that has wireless connectivity. That can be used with both computers and Android/iOS phones and tablets. - The Epson Scanner Team

**Q: what is the difference between the es-50 and ds-70?**
A: The ES-50 is a retail product and comes with the ScanSmart software for easy document management and optional accounting features. The DS-70 is the commercial version and comes with Document Capture Pro for creating scan jobs that can be run from the scanner's button. - The Epson Scanner Team

**Q: Once you scan a document, can you set it up where the document will it go directly to your drop box?**
A: After you scan the document, there are many options - save, attach to email, send to google drive, dropbox, evernote, one drive, word, excel, powerpoint.  You may need to download another app, but then you login to your account, select a folder, filename and format of jpeg, pdf or searchable pdf. 

One very important thing is to come up with a standard naming format since the software defaults to "document 20190128_001" style of format.  I'm using a "20190128 vendor purpose" format and then filing in a client/function specific folder.  A bit of work on input, but it will be easier to locate later.  I am also starting with current year material and will decide what to scan of past papers after I have a bit of experience on going digital.

So far so good. Scanned documents are decent quality but not great. Probably not the best scanner for graphics due to image quality. Simple to use. Downloaded the driver, which was straightforward. Bought the case to store it in. Meets my needs and doesn’t take up lots of space. Happy w/ this purchase!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small scanner Big Results
*by M***L on November 27, 2025*

This scanner is 10.5x1.0x1.5 and it does exactly what it says it does. Most of my scanning is legal size, so this is the best scanner for me. I already have an Epson4800 printer that is under 2 years old and the rollers went bad and crumpled and the placed a blick line down the center that no amount of cleaning could fix. I needed a self feed scanner. This was the best bet. Very simple to install to a USB port and has an on button and a scan button. When your in the software choose ADP (for feed scan) and check the add/save box for multiple scans to one document file (of your choice), when done then click save. You can save to many file extensions like pdf or jpeg. I even installed a little shelf on the wall to hold it when not in use. The rollers are of good quality, just wait to feed a second sheet until the first drops all the out. Also Totally portable. This is one of the better Epson products.
