#EPSON DS 560 DRIVER FOR MAC MAC OS#
Setup for a USB connection is standard.Įpson lists the OS requirements on its website as Windows XP through Windows 8.1 or Mac OS 10.5.8 through 10.9.x. Wi-Fi setup is more convoluted than it should be, but you only have to go through it once, so that's not a serious issue. I tested the DS-560 with both Wi-Fi and USB connections, using USB for the timing tests to ensure more consistent results. Opening the output tray takes up only about six more inches in front of the scanner. The top cover opens to turn into an input tray, raising the height to about 10 inches. Read Our Canon imageFormula DR-C225 ReviewĪt 6.1 by 11.7 by 6 inches (HWD) with the trays closed, and weighing just 5 pounds 8 ounces, the DS-560 is an appropriate size and weight to sit on a desk without taking up much space. Unfortunately, the switch is on the back, where it's harder to get to than it should be. If you're connected by USB cable also, however, you'll have to move the switch back and forth depending on how you want to connect for any given scan. To turn the mode on, you set a slide switch on the scanner. Epson says that the scanner's access point mode will let you connect up to four devices directly to the DS-560 at the same time. If you don't have a network, or prefer to connect the DS-560 to a single PC via a USB cable, you can still scan to other PCs or mobile devices that offer Wi-Fi.

Similarly, you can install Epson's DocumentScan app on your iOS or Android smartphone or tablet, and scan to your mobile device using the Scan command in the app. Connect the DS-560 to your network's Wi-Fi access point, install the scan software on as many network PCs as you like, and you can scan to any PC by choosing the Scan command in the program running on that PC. In contrast, the DS-560's Wi-Fi works the way you would expect Wi-Fi to work, making it far more useful. If you want to scan to another PC, you have to connect to the scanner by USB cable and reconfigure the setting. The Fujitsu iX500 can be set to scan over a network to only one computer at a time.

If you need a network scanner, however, the DS-560 does the job a lot better than the Fujitsu model. One of the few that can is another favorite, Fujitsu ScanSnap iX500 ($570.00 at Amazon UK). Our top pick for personal or micro-office desktop document scanner, for example-the Canon imageFormula DR-C225 ($570.00 at Amazon UK) -can't connect wirelessly. The DS-560 isn't the only document scanner in its price range with Wi-Fi, but it is one of the first.

What makes it stand out, however, is Wi-Fi, which lets you both use the DS-560 ($570.00 at Amazon UK) as a network scanner and use it to scan files to mobile devices. Suitable for personal use or for a small office or workgroup, it delivers fast speed, duplex (two-sided) scanning, and a 50-sheet automatic feeder (ADF). If it weren't for its Wi-Fi support, the Epson WorkForce DS-560 Wireless Color Document Scanner ($449.99) would be best described as a capable, but unexceptional, desktop document scanner.
