Hello dear community,
I have spent the last few weeks extensively researching scanners and now I have my second one here. I first had a ScanSnap ix1600 and now I have the Epson ES-580W. Both are great scanners, although I like the ES-580W a bit better because it has a web interface. But now I have reached the point where I don't want to bring every existing scanner into my house just to see if it has the functions I want, simply because the internet doesn't provide enough information. Therefore, I am reaching out to you for help.
I need a scanner that allows me to create a large number of different profiles, in which I can then scan to a network folder. The reason is that my family and I have a wide variety of different documents that all need to be scanned directly into the corresponding folders (around 60+ profiles/shortcuts). The ScanSnap only has a handful of profiles and even though the Epson has 300 contacts, I can ultimately only create 48 presets. And I would like to be able to customize the file prefixes for each profile.
I am hoping the community can help me find a suitable scanner. It should have what the previous two had, but additionally, it is important to me that it:
- Has a web server where I can make my settings (create profiles, etc.)
- Has a lot of Network Folder Shortcuts. Or alot of Shortcuts in General.
- Can scan receipts well
- Can handle no less than 30 pages
- The Epson was pleasantly quiet, so it would be great if it wasn't too loud (not a main criterion)
The cheaper, the better, but given the price range I am currently considering, I expect to find something around €800 or less with the desired features.
I look forward to your responses and hope that people can help me out.
