Portable scanner

Will the Epson WorkForce ES-50 work?

Yes. Going by Epson's own pages, it can capture today with scan to cloud and a TWAIN driver.

A light portable scanner, powered by USB, that feeds one sheet at a time, including long pages and ID cards.

Easiest path to one place

Scan to one cloud folder

Point every scan at a single cloud folder so they collect in one place. The scan-to-cloud row below says whether a computer or add-on is involved.

How it can capture

  • Scan to cloud

    Yes

    The device, or the maker's own software or service, sends pages to cloud storage.

    Yes, but only through Epson ScanSmart on a connected Windows PC or Mac, with an internet connection.[1]

  • TWAIN driver (classic)

    Yes

    The long-standing way to scan. A driver installed on a computer lets scanning apps run the scanner, usually over a USB cable.

Works with: Windows, macOS
