It's difficult to say, scanning is scanning and there are many options, but the DS-50000 Color scanner works and. works with Acrobat, and fits my needs. I now own three Epson scanning devices and Epson printer. They all juts work. That's the 5 stars

Will this scan 12x12 scrapbook pages. There is a conflict of information. Some indicates the scan bed is 11.7 inches. Others is that it is 11 inches. I could probably use it if it accommodates 11.7 inches.
Asked by: Margaret
Yes, but it will cut off the last .3 inches of your paper since it does only does 11.7. But other than that, it would be a good purchase.

question

Anyone use the WorkForce DS 500000 for photographs? Need to scan old yearbooks and enlarge 5x...
Asked by: Anonymous
I recently bought a WorkForce DS 500000 to scan forty years of journals that include photographs. I have found the scanner to be very fast while producing high quality 600 dpi scans. The large bed allows me to open my 8.5x11 inch journals, producing a file that is 11x17 inches in size, with some room around the edge. I highly recommend this scanner.

Will this scanner scan 11x14 photographs attached to a 16x20 inch board?
Asked by: Darrell M.
The scan bed is 17 1/4 inches by 12 1/4 inches so scanning the photos is no problem.You would simply have to reposition the board to scan everything on it.The lid lifts off completely.
