![]() The only issue I had was that firmware upgrade isn't supported while the ES-300W is running on the battery instead of telling me that, though, the software gave me a list of possible issues to check-no big deal, but not as slick as it could be. ![]() While installing the drivers and utilities on our testbed PC, the installation software checked and upgraded the scanner's firmware. You'll have to go on to Epson's support site, which isn't difficult to find, to download them. As with all Epson scanners nowadays, the drivers, utilities, and other bundled software don't come in the box. You simply unfold the ADF, connect the scanner to a PC via a USB cable (or to your wireless network), and you're ready to scan. Setting up the ES-300W is straightforward. Epson doesn't publish a battery life rating for the ES-300W, but we scanned hundreds of pages on a single battery charge during our tests. According to Epson, the battery charges in just a couple hours via AC, four hours over USB 3.0, and 20 hours over USB 2.0, when the scanner is in use, and it charges more quickly when it's turned off. ![]() You can charge the battery or power the device via AC or USB power sources. Supported file formats include JPEG, RTF, TIF, TXT, image and searchable PDF, and Microsoft Word and Excel Workflow destinations include Printer, Folder, Program, FTP, OCR, SharePoint, Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote, and a few other cloud sites. The maximum resolution is 1,200dpi and the scanner has a daily duty cycle rating of 500 scans, compared with the P-215II's 600dpi and 500 scans per day.
