Epson WorkForce GT-1500 review

Easy to use and simple in its focus, the Epson WorkForce GT-1500 does an adequate job of photo- and document-scanning.

The Epson WorkForce GT-1500 is Epson's answer to the growing need in small businesses for a fast document-focused scanner that can scan multiple pages of text in short order. The results with photos weren't disappointing either, making the scanner more...

Epson WorkForce GT-1500

The Epson WorkForce GT-1500 is one of the most affordable document scanners available for a small office.

Low price for a flatbed document scanner. Scans directly to searchable PDF files.

Automatic document feeder (ADF) scans one side of the page only. Manual duplex feature is hidden and somewhat cumbersome. Slow.

Review: Epson WorkForce GT-1500 document scanner

Easy to use and simple in its focus, the GT-1500 does an adequate job of photo- and document-scanning.

The GT-1500 can quickly scan multiple sheets at a time thanks to an automatic document feeder (ADF) capable of holding as many as 40 sheets, as large as 8.5 by 14 inches. Although you’re limited to a maximum scanning resolution of 600 dpi when using...

EPSON B11B190011

Fast, easy way to scan paper. Takes up very little space on the desk compared with my previous flatbed scanner and is much faster to use

Can only be used with the computer that it is connected to, it cant be set up to be used as a network device.

Bad Deal

Cheap

Cheaply made. After about 4 months of light use, the scanner started spontaneously disconnecting from the computer. The error codes said it was a paper jam, but sometimes the paper has not even started feeding through when the error occurs. A little...

Epson GT 1500

I really like this scanner. I previously had a 2480 for home use and now the GT 1500 with ADF is great for the office. The scan speed is pretty good and scan quality is great. The bundled software works very well. Using the OCR scan to PDF so you have...
