Epson DS-730N Network Color Document Scanner, 100-page Auto Document Feeder (ADF), Duplex Scanning

I bought this to replace a 13 year old Epson scanner that had worn or aged out. I have had no trouble with this scanner. The quality is good for a document scanner, page handling is good and it responds quickly on the network.

I actually bought the older model to this 5 years ago, that one was easy to set up, this one is easy to setup. My company archives PDFs into a network drive and we catalog it with software, The people who have to do this job love these little scanners as it keeps them from having to stand at the main copier all day.

This is a good networked document scanner. It took a little bit of effort to initially set up the software to work the way I want, but other than that, the device works fine. The software included just seems a little confusing. It seems for me to make a change, I have to create a new setting profile and erase the old one. Changing the old setting profile doesn't seem to save correctly.

I really wanted to like this scanner; it has all the features I wanted. ADF, ethernet connectivity, scan to email, TWAIN compatible, Win11. But I just could not get it to work with Adobe Acrobat. Multiple times reinstalling the drivers, multiple times installing Adobe. Tech support calls with both Adobe and Epson. All to no avail. Adobe works with my other scanner and the Epson works with its own software, but they will just not work together. Unfortunately I will be returning it.

I love these rapid page scanners. I use this for scanning documents and also for scanning old photos. I normally use ViewScan software for photos and Acrobat for document scans.

Scanner was quick and easy to setup, however web interface one has to use to configure it, is sluggish.Scanner is fast. Only scanned sheets of paper so far. Nothing awkward like passport.I doubt I can scan passport. No flat bed to scan book pages either
