Is a mobile scanner necessary to have?

For me, a portable scanner has become invaluable!! I have an Epson DS-635 that plugs directly into my “Utility” laptop, no security problems. I use it at every signing to scan signer’s ID. It is used for the docs only occasionally, as mentioned above, if time is a factor and the package is manageable. More times than not the signers are more than willing to let 15-25 pages get scanned so the packet can ship in a timely fashion, mostly because they have skin in the game. McDonald’s and Starbu…

Is a mobile scanner necessary to have?

Owning a small desk scanner and an inverter for your car can be valuable… during the covid experience… I had a full sized brothers printer(6200) and a small desk sized scanner (Epson DS 575W) in my truck. I dont carry the printer any more, but the scanner… very good tool… leave home with jobs… do signings … using my tablet, upload docs ( closed connection)… then send to signing platform via my phone’s hotspot… I have control of the docs… it helps with communication and trust with escrow clients…

Is a mobile scanner necessary to have?

Yes, having a scanner is very important in this business. I’ve had an Epson 500W, and I’ve been using it daily—sometimes multiple times a day—for the past five years. It has worked very well. If I had to do it over again, I probably would have chosen one with a 100-page feeder, since most of our packages are over 100 pages. It’s much quicker to scan everything from the signer’s home using your laptop.

Is a mobile scanner necessary to have?

My mobile scanner is one of my favorite pieces of equipment. I have the Epson 580. I bought it refurbished through Epson and paid about half of what it sells for new. It has been great! It scans SO fast! If the job is under 100 pages, I don’t even need to bring my laptop because it goes through the phone. (Over 100 has to go through the laptop). My suggestion would be to keep an eye out for a good deal and grab it when it comes up.

Scanback time, mileage, costs

Epson WF-2950… it is small enough to be powered with the 120V outlet from my car, has an autofeeder for scanning documents black and color, WI-FI smartphone operated for sending the scanned to my cellphone or laptop… although is a ink-jet printer, all my closing documents are printed at home in my laser Brother MFC-L3770CDW but can be use as printer if needed… best of all was the price, LESS expensive than the cheaper regular document scanner in the market…
