Detailed Specifications
Specifications are taken from Epson's WorkForce ES-500W II product page on epson.ae. The scan speed is shown with Epson's own test condition. Epson's page states no feeder sheet capacity and no weight, and its maximum document length row is not shown. Units for document size, paper weight and operating temperature follow Epson's standard measures where the table gives the figure alone.
Need-to-Know
- Epson's 35 ppm / 70 ipm figure is based on A4-sized document scans at 300 dpi in black-and-white or colour mode; Epson notes scan speed varies depending on network conditions.
- Epson's UAE specification does not state the feeder's sheet capacity or a reliable maximum document length, so neither is given here. Ask us if long documents matter for your work.
- Epson's UAE table names no Wi-Fi standard; a USB 3.0 cable is in the box. It lists Mac OS 12.x as the compatible operating system - ask us about Windows and other systems before ordering.
