Very pleased with this scanner

This is a great scanner. I am using it to scan all my old paper photos from the days of using a film camera. The software that goes with it is great and easy to use, although it could be a bit more intuitive. But once you scan a few batches of pics you easily get the hang of it. I am pleased with the quality of the scans.

Does an amazing job

In the past month I have scanned over 2000 photos that were simply sitting in boxes in the basement for decades. You do need to do your homework, like looking at the pictures, making "piles" for them so you can name them, look for duplicates etc. The scanner is good but garbage in and you get garbage out. I ended up with over 30 different categories for my stuff, and I could still refine things better now. But once the pictures have been put into order and put into piles or bundles with them oriented for scanning, it went by so fast! This thing took everything I had and scanned it and mistreated or damaged nothing. It honestly took me much longer to sort them than to scan them. And the software did a great job orienting and fixing up. The post scan work was easy enough and necessary anyway. And it's been useful for scanning other things from the household.

Simple, Fast and Trouble free

I purchased to scan in large numbers of photos to reduce clutter. The time saving alone versus a flatbed scanner was worth the purchase. I love the dual scan for photo backs and documents. The software for photo's and documents is excellent as compared to my previous software from other vendors.

Innovative & Very Impressive !!

Right out of the box this product has easy to follow instructions on the "start here" paper to download and install drivers, also helpful instructions on how to connect to the wireless network, which my laptop easily found and paired with by using the wi-fi connect button located on the scanner. A usb cord is provided just in case there is no wi-fi, or user preference. I am amazed by the speed the scanner takes to scan photos, documents and the resolution levels which range from 300 dpi (takes 1 sec.), 600 dpi (takes 3 sec) and 1200 dpi (takes 10 sec). This Wireless High-speed Scanning System has a setting for panoramic and instant photos, which are great for Polaroids, and can scan up to 36 photos at a time depending on size and thickness. The scanner feed functioned properly every time and had no jam or scanning feed issues. I save receipts and lots of old photos that I am wanting to save digitally onto google Onedrive and can be uploaded to Dropbox as well as enhance when scanning, so this Epson FastFoto Scanner System is perfect and ideal for my needs! The provided carrier sheet included is best when used for protecting wrinkled, fragile, old and valuable pictures & documents. I like that Epson included a downloadable pdf format user manual that can be printed too (120 pages long) to get more information and details of Epson FastFoto scanner and advanced settings. Although I miss having physical installation cd discs, I think it's easier having the link to download everything the scanner needs and can set itself up.Despite having the auto rotation checked in advanced settings, when editing scanned pictures, I still had to click the rotate twice to get pictures positioned upright, but other than that I love how much better looking, brighter with higher clarity and image quality resulting from every scan! This is a review for the Epson FastFoto FF-680W Wireless High-speed Photo and Document Scanner System that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.”

A Real time saver

We bought the Epson scanner to san some family albums that were fading and/or were in bad shape. The scanner was very fast and did a better job than expected. I scanned everything on the 600 dpt because some would need to be resized for printing. I selected the original and enhanced but In the future the enhanced only will probably be the best since thee were only 10 out of 300 that the original was better. in most cases a photo editing program was needed to improve the picture but it beats using a flatbed scanner any day I will continue to use my Epson flat bed scanner for critical work.

Good product -but it has issues.

Bought it this week and have already scanned over 100 pictures. Not bad but it does come with issues. First, if there is old tape or glue on the back of a picture, it jams. The back has to be scrapped clean and pristine. Secondly, it will not scan Polaroids. Too thick. An entire generation used Polaroid cameras so there are millions of those out there, fading and rotting. I have a flatbed scanner for those but many don't have that option.

Great Scanner - Degraded Scanning Software Capabilities

I purchased the FF-680W to expand the capabilities of my forensic investigation and engineering practice, replacing an 8-yr old DS-560 (this was a workhorse). I needed improved photo scanning capabilities and the 680 aptly meets those demands. The file management abilities of "Document Management Pro" that came with the DS-560 spoiled me. I was able to have several custom quick scan tabs that allowed a quick scan with documents scanned with detailed settings and stored at select locations (i.e. documents, checks, photos). I attempted to create customized actions in the Epson ScanSmart that came with the 680 and learned that similar customized actions are no longer available. Hence, additional steps are needed to store documents at your select locations after changing the settings for the nature of instrument saved.

Fast but not perfect

The scanner mechanically works fine but there is some very noticeable streaking, particularly the blue channel. There is no dirt on the lens. The capture software leaves a lot to be desired. Non-intuitive and ultimately frustrating. No parameters to set for the "auto correction" which usually overcooks the photo. The streaking is also not corrected by the software, even though there is a setting in the capture software. Flatbed scanners produce a better result but are very time consuming.

Everything I expected and More

This scans both pictures and documents quickly and efficiently. I did find that I wanted to put information in on each photo I scanned, which did slow down the process, but there is really no way of getting around that. I am scanning family photo's and it is important for me to gather all the information for each photo and keep it together to preserve the history. Love this product!
