Can you scan documents to a USB Flash drive?

Yes, you can. From the printer touchscreen display you can select a memory device such as a flash drive, or the computer, or the cloud. From the Epson scan utility on your computer you can select a USB drive if it's already connected to your computer.

I haven't tried, but I don't know why you couldn't. I've scanned to both my hard drive and the "cloud". During the scan process you're asked where you want to store the file. I'm sure a flash drive would show as a choice. Hope this helps.

I actually don't know. I would say this, however. I purchased this printer about one ago and I am very unhappy with it. It is very difficult and complicated to work. One of the reasons that I purchased it was because it had high ratings and I like to print my own photos but this printer does not do a satisfactory job and not nearly as good as another model that I just replaced. I am an old guy and have trouble with all of these electronics but I am going to swap this printer out with my kids and get my old one back.

Yes, I saw your question and decided to try it. You are able to scan to the USB, it allows you to save in PDF, JPG or TIF (and possible other) formats.

Evidently your needs are much more complicated than mine. I have not tried to scan to a USB drive. However, I HAVE scanned several documents into my computer (Easy to set up) and then transferred to a USB drive from the computer. I realize that I have not answered your question but this solution is only one click extra and very fast.

I use the internal memory and then transfer the saved scans to a flash drive.

I assume so since you save your scanned images/documents etc... to an SD card, you should be able to transfer the images to your computer from the card.

The scans are simply .jpg files. You just attach with USB cord that comes with it and open the files!

Correct. You do need to install software and drivers on PC for the scanner to work. Connect the USB to scan.

Yes you can name the documents -there is a great folder system you can set up preset options like Bank of America and then choose that folder and it will scan it with that name and the next sequential number - I use it with the USB mostly but it has so many great features It is a great purchase!

Thanks, I'll look into how that is done. Also, can a flashdrive handle a program this large or only just files?

I don't recommend using a USB flash drive. Use a powered external hard drive.

Don't see why not. Plug in the USB and, it basically runs like a flash drive.

Yes, you can scan directly to a thumb drive. I am not certain on exactly what you mean about gaining access to other accounts. A little help in educating me and I might be able to answer.

Should scan about any document/picture. Mine came with software that will allow me to scan directly into the computer using the included USB cord and I can view scan directly. It also has the micro card that can be used to store scans without using USB. You would then have transfer to computer, but you will not be able to see actual scans until you connect to computer. The software that came with my scanner is EVERNOTE Sprint ABBYY Fine Reader (Direct Scan), SCANDirect (VuPoint), and Sort and File Suite (haven't used that).

The only way I have used it is to do the scan, then attach the scanner to the computer via USB and drag and drop the JPG or PDF to the computer to open the document. I've been very satisfied all aspects of the scanner. Because I work out of town a lot and scan large blueprints and maps, I purchased a 32GB memory card as insurance.Max Schnepf at maxks1@cox.net

Yes, you will need to buy a SD card and you can also use a USB flash drive.

I don't believe it can be done. The scans are separate (can't run simultaneously) and won't save on the same document.

I don't think so. I scan documents to a flash drive, then use the flash drive w/ my PC to email the scans.

Hi, No you don't need anything just a USB port. Be sure that you click on the "search" field prior to using the scanner. Also, teh book might not show all the numbers but the bar code will read it. Finally, if listing books be aware that the UPC bar code is not the ISBN bar code for books prior to 2010. You might need to look inside or next to the barcode for the ISBN barcode.

No, I purchased this unit for that purpose and it didn't work. I could see and read files from the USB drive but could not save files to the drive. The problem seemed to be that it was so slow the write failed due to time out, not permissions.
