Scanner: Epson FastFoto FF-680W Wireless Document Duplex Scanner

scanner2

The Epson FastFoto FF-680W Wireless Document Duplex Scanner does a nice job of converting your old photos to digital format. You can also use it to scan receipts, checks, and financial records, although I might prefer a regular scanner for those.

Setup was relatively painless, if you use the computer method. If you try to setup via app, it may not go as smoothly. Everything seemed to work via the app at first, but the scans were blank. I was using a Google Pixel phone, so YMMV with iOS, for instance. The directions were clear and easy to follow.

However, when paired with a computer, the 680W digitizes photos and documents like a champ. I was impressed with how quickly it scans the photos and is then ready for another. This is a tremendous asset if you have a ton of old family photos lying around, as we do.

I would have preferred an option for higher resolution. These are not big-screen HD ready, but they are perfectly fine for viewing on a computer screen.

You have the option of scanning images to jpg format and documents to pdf format.

The scanner itself has a reasonable footprint. I didn’t think it is too big, but it’s certainly big enough to feel solid.

Overall, I’m pleased.

Final: Like

Note, this scanner was provided to me free of charge for review by Best Buy and Epson.
