Features and Highlights

This 8.2-pound DS-770 has a footprint small enough to be placed on a desk but might overwhelm a small one. It measures 11.7 inches wide, 7.7 inches deep, and 12.5 inches tall.

If you ever decide to attach a compatible flatbed to this scanner, such as Epson Perfection V19 Scanner or Epson Perfection V39 Scanner, you will need more space on your desk not only for the flatbed but also for the dock that connects the flatbed to the sheetfed unit. This flatbed is a recommended optional upgrade if you often scan fragile sheets or certain originals that won’t fit the sheet feeder.

Its physical design resembles that of the previous model, the Epson DS-760, but the Epson DS-770 has higher daily duty cycle and higher duplex scanning speed. Its automatic sheet feeder can handle up to five thousands of sheets a day with a maximum scan speed of 45 ppm for single-sided pages and 70 ipm for double-sided ones. Anyone who is going to use the scanner can stack up to one hundred sheets of papers.

The Epson DS-770 has a simple yet elegant control panel which consists of five buttons arranged vertically on the front body, but it only lets users perform a few simple operations. These buttons include a power button, double feed detection skip button, stop button, power button, and slow mode button. The last one is intended to slow down the scan speed when the scanner encounters a paper jam.

As mentioned above, the Epson DS-770 is especially fast at scanning double-sided pages than competing scanners, which makes it an excellent duplex scanner for offices or anyone who needs the capability. Even better, it scans pages to searchable PDF as fast as it scans pages to image PDF files. Best of all, this scanner is available for a fairly cheap price considering everything it is capable of.

Speed without accuracy is useless. Fortunately, the Epson DS-770 has a good accuracy level in recognizing and converting text. There are bound some errors in the future but overall it is still a recommended scanner device.
