Well, prior to my purchasing the Epson DS-560 I was scanning on a LexMark All-in-one. 150+ documents would take 2.5 hours at the minimum because I could only scan about 12-15 pages at a time -> save (OCR process) -> restart. Every 2-3 scan batches and the scanner would crash. If I was in the middle of a scan or had not saved yet I would have to start that batch over... YES, it was a pain!\n\nToday, I got a faxback request so I whipped out my new scanner (still in the box -I just purchased it 9/2/15), set it up on my MAC for wireless use (10 minutes max) and started scanning. I was done in 15 minutes. FIFTEEN MINUTES, people! Images were sharp and saved as PDF. My docs are a mixture of letter and legal size and it did the job WITHOUT ANY HICCUPS.
