EPSON SCANNER LAUNCH
Supporting the digitalisation process
Epson’s new compact desktop scanner range has been launched to help businesses on their digital transformation journey, and employees to make quality scans wherever they are working.
Digitalisation is a priority for many businesses as they seek to take advantage of the benefits of working in the cloud, especially fitting in with hybrid working arrangements. A crucial part of digitalisation is ensuring that electronic versions of physical documents can be made and then shared. To this end, Epson has recently launched four new compact desktop scanners, the DS-C330, DS-C490, ES-C320W and ES-C380W. These scanners aim to support the digitalisation process and address new office challenges triggered by hybrid working – such as shared workspaces, smaller offices and reduced desk space. “Scanning continues to be a significant priority for Epson’s ongoing development as an imaging technology leader,” says Kevin Dobson, product manager at Epson. “The new Compact Desktop Series enhances Epson’s ability to support digital transformation in an increasingly competitive digital economy and aligns with Epson’s corporate purpose of ‘creative, efficient, compact, and precise innovation to enrich lives and help to create a better world.’ “Scanning is not only the first point of entry for paper in the digitisation process, but Epson’s document capture capabilities allow businesses to digitise workflows across different departments to save time and money.

Using a simple lever feature, these scanners can easily transition from a U-turn media path to a straight media path delivering more flexible media handling to support a wider range of documents; from passports to long- form paper formats at speeds ranging from 30-40ppm depending on model. Wireless scanning is possible on the ES- C320W and the ES-C380W, and the inclusion of Epson ScanWay with the ES-C380W means users can use the product as a stand-alone solution, progressing scan and selecting workflows from the product’s touchscreen panel, removing the need for a PC. Users can scan to popular cloud-based services including OneDrive, Sharepoint online and Microsoft Teams using Epson Connect. All models include a range of image and text enhancement technologies including optical character recognition processing, features to protect documents and to simplify destination or workflow selection. “This range is primarily aimed at front-of- house and reception desk environments within hospitality, pharmacies, post offices, banks, customs offices and car hire companies,” says Kevin. “These are sectors with competitive standards for digitalisation, and an active document workflow environment, making this range ideal due to its mixed-batch scanning capabilities that relieve the pressure from office
