Epson Scanner TWAIN Driver for Windows 10: A Comprehensive Review

The Epson scanner has been a popular choice among professionals and home users alike for its ability to deliver high-quality scans and prints. In this review, we will take a closer look at the Epson scanner's performance using the TWAIN driver on Windows 10.

Performance

We tested the Epson scanner's performance by scanning various documents and images using the TWAIN driver. The results were impressive, with fast scan speeds and excellent color quality. Duplex scans took longer, as expected, due to the ADF's need to flip each page to scan both sides. However, we were pleased with the overall speed of the scanner, which averaged 22ppm when scanning a 20-page sheaf of bank statements to a PC as a searchable PDF.

Color Quality

The Epson scanner also impressed us with its color quality. Graphics and photos looked sharp and detailed without any signs of banding in large single-color areas. The standard setting for text was sufficient, with only fonts smaller than 12pt showing hints of dusting.

Driver Installation

Installing the TWAIN driver on Windows 10 was a straightforward process. Simply download the Driver and Utilities Combo Package from Epson's website, and follow the installation instructions. Make sure to remove all previous drivers for the scanner before installing the new one, and uninstall any devices associated with the scanner in Device Manager.

Epson ScanSmart

The Epson ScanSmart software is a valuable tool that must be installed from the Driver and Utilities Combo Package. This software allows you to print from any smartphone, tablet, or computer from anywhere in the world using the Epson Connect cloud print & scan service.

Overall, we were impressed with the Epson scanner's performance using the TWAIN driver on Windows 10. The scanner delivered fast scan speeds, excellent color quality, and easy installation. We recommend downloading the Driver and Utilities Combo Package from Epson's website to take full advantage of the scanner's capabilities.
