Epson Perfection V19

Advantages: Compact, lightweight, austere design. You can scan thick books with the cover removed. Can scan directly to pdf, tif. Very convenient, understandable russified software, many scan settings. Powered only from a PC via USB, no need to connect an additional bulky power supply.

Disadvantages: I would like to have a shutdown button so that the scanner is not constantly "on alert" and does not shine a blue LED (albeit small, not annoying) during idle time.

Comment: A good model without unnecessary bells and whistles in the form of a slide module that is not needed in the office. Affordable price - bought for 5500 rubles. There are drivers for Windowd 10. Good quality of document scanning for posting on the network and sending by e-mail. To scan a photo, you need to look at something more expensive.

Advantages: Fast scanning. The presence of buttons for quick scanning in pdf format. Light. Powered by usb. Quick setup when connected.

Disadvantages: In order for all the mechanical buttons on the scanners to work, for quick scanning, an Internet connection is required on the computer (additional software was downloaded)

Comment: We bought it to the office to replace the old canon scan lide 25. The difference is enormous. The Epson Perfection V19 scans pages very quickly with an average quality of 300-600dpi. Great scanner.

Advantages: Scan quality, compactness, ease of connection, speed of work, price

Disadvantages: No

Comment: Chose a scanner exclusively for scanning photos (home user, family photo archive). It is not suitable for photographic films due to the lack of special devices and a simplified design (for these purposes, another much more expensive apparatus is needed). Taking it out of the box, I immediately felt the difference with the 10-year-old scanner that stood before it. More compact and much lighter. Installed without "dancing", on Win7x64 got up like a native (downloaded software and firewood from offsite). I really liked the USB connection (and communication and power, no sockets), one caveat - I connected it first to USB 2.0 (as in the specification), a message came out that the device could work faster when connected to a faster port, reconnected to USB 3.0, message gone. No warm-up is required to get started (or it's so fast that I didn't notice). Native software is completely enough for me (I chose the professional mode in the interface). I scan old photos mainly in 1200 or 2400 resolution,very rarely 4800 (for very small photographs) or with large damages for subsequent restoration, more modern (70s, 80s) - 600 (although 300 is most likely enough for such photos (no sharpness). satisfied, the difference with the MFP scanner is obvious.By the way, for the document I use the MFP (it is intended for them). The speed of work suits, it all depends on the resolution. Not noisy (not in the sense that it is not audible, but that the noise is not annoying Well, the price turned out to be not a horse, again due to the functionality not burdened with unnecessary options. I recommend buying (for those for whom the difference between the resolution of 300 and 1200 is obvious and important), the rest - contact any photo studio, you are 300 and scanned.

Advantages: Excellent scan quality, lightweight, compact, no power supply

Disadvantages: The software crashed once, only reinstallation using the web installer helped: http://support.epson.net

Comment: With the help of the web installer, it is also possible to supply other utilities to facilitate scanning and storage. According to some reports, it is the additional softphone that activates the buttons on the device, without having to launch the main application.

Advantages: cheap, high quality, hassle-free

Disadvantages: I don't see it yet

Comment: Conducted a test of freshly bought for 4400 rubles. scanner Epson Perfection V19 when saving a file with the "Maximum compression" condition (which IMHO makes sense) and with scanning parameters: 1200 dpi and 2400 dpi: * scanned slightly wrinkled instructions on very thick A4 paper (jams are especially visible on the right and to the left of the middle of the sheet as "pixels"): 1. in 1200 dpi - scans in a minute, file size: 2.5 MB, resolution: 10000 x 14000 2. in 2400 dpi - scans in 7 minutes, file size: 7.9 MB, resolution: 20,000 x 28,000 - 1200 dpi scan attached. * And an ordinary flat sheet of A4 paper (a document with black and white text and color stamps) - was scanned just perfectly in all resolutions. ** Connecting to a PC with Windows 10 x64 is simple and fast - plugged into USB and installed everything from disk in a couple of minutes. - Reboot, set the desired settings and scan. So the bad comrades above were lying to you about some unrealistic connection problems ... - apparently, it was just anti-advertising from competitors ;-)

Advantages: Light; can work while standing; powered by usb port; works in win10; removable cover.

Disadvantages: No.

Comment: Lightweight, comfortable device, can work while standing on its side, there is a retractable leg. Powered by usb port. It scans quickly, there are a bunch of modes, from pro to full automatic. Works in win10. The cover is completely removable, thick books are not a problem.

Advantages: 1. Scan quality 2. Scan speed 3. Design and weight. 4. USB powered.

Disadvantages: Have not found.

Comment: An excellent scanner, it works well. The control program is clear and well designed. On windows 10x64, everything was fine. Scans the entry. Best scanner I have ever had at work and at home. Recommend.

Advantages: Scanning speed and quality, work from one USB-cord, software simplicity.

Disadvantages: Raw drivers - the scanner is periodically lost by the system and is not found (only after a reboot), not entirely thought-out software, fragile material of the lid hinges.

Comment: There were several different tablets in the office - this one was the fastest. But the software is better in the HP Laserjet 200, though not without reservations. Until now, the logic of the developers is not clear - the impossibility of configuring the saving of scanned copies to the network storage, while the connected network drive can be seen without problems. It seems that the software was made by different people, because the interfaces of the software for scanning to pdf differ from the software for scanning to pictures. The lid hinge started to dangle after a few hundred copies. There is no limit to perfection, but this device copes well for its money.

Advantages: Lightweight and comfortable. They wrote a lot about the difficulties with the installation. I just downloaded the drivers and Epson Scan from their website, connected the scanner to my computer and pressed a button. It seems to me that there is nowhere easier! You don't need to be a super professional to figure this out. You can set the options you want in Epson Scan. The quality of the scanned documents is excellent. Old photos also take on quite a presentable look when scanned. So I recommend this scanner!

Disadvantages: I could not immediately remove the top cover. The mountings are somehow strangely made.

Comment:

Advantages: Cheap. Light. Works over USB. No trances needed. In a good way. The price was (06.18) - 4790.

Disadvantages: The author of this review was the first owner of the V330 scanner. Rather, he consistently owned two such scanners. I remember this experience (3 months) ... In Yandex, the story "V330 with stripes". 10 years have passed, but the negative to the brand has lagged behind.

Comment: This is a simple scanner with no surplus. Works since June 2018. Yes, there is no "Off" button. But it's not difficult for me to turn off via USB. This is a normal scanner. Works under W7 + Epson Scan and VueScan. Regular user, not IT. Used 9 years agfa snapscan e20 since 1999. Then (2010 ... V330 (MMGW004900 and MMGW011197 - two pieces in 3 months). Then HP ScanJet G4050 (8 years old, the cat crashed). Now Epson Perfection V19. No complaints.
