Epson B11B275201 DS-800WN Color Document Scanner

Epson B11B275201 Document Scanner

The Epson B11B275201 DS-800WN is a networked color document scanner designed for high-volume scanning workflows in office and enterprise environments. With Wi-Fi connectivity, USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 2.0, and Gigabit LAN interfaces, this scanner integrates seamlessly into existing IT infrastructure without requiring dedicated scan workstations. The device captures both single-sided and double-sided documents at consistent quality and speed.

Key Features

• Scan Speed: 50 pages per minute in both color and monochrome mode, enabling efficient batch processing of mixed-color and text-heavy documents
• Optical Resolution: 600 dpi maximum horizontal and vertical resolution for crisp, archive-quality captures
• Color Depth: 30-bit color support ensures accurate color reproduction for branded documents, photographs, and marketing materials
• Color Scanning: Full-color document capture with automatic detection and processing
• Automatic Document Feeder: Included ADF reduces manual feed time and supports rapid multi-document scanning sessions
• Duty Cycle: 8,000 scans per day rated capacity supports sustained operational demands
• Multi-Protocol Connectivity: USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 2.0 host, Gigabit LAN, and Wi-Fi (802.11ac) options allow flexible network deployment and mobile device scanning
• Document Scanner Classification: Optimized for business document workflows including invoices, contracts, forms, and administrative records

Integration and Connectivity

The B11B275201 supports multiple connection pathways: direct USB 3.2 Gen 1 for high-speed local connections, legacy USB 2.0 compatibility for older systems, Gigabit LAN for centralized network scanning, and Wi-Fi (ac) for wireless deployment from mobile carts or distributed office locations. This multi-interface design eliminates single-point-of-failure dependencies and accommodates mixed-generation IT environments common in large organizations. The 600 dpi capture resolution preserves document detail critical for compliance, OCR processing, and long-term digital archiving.

Operational Specifications

The scanner delivers 50 ppm throughput in both color and monochrome modes, maintaining consistent quality across document types. The 8,000-scan-per-day duty cycle supports typical office use and light production environments without requiring mid-shift maintenance intervals. 30-bit color depth enables accurate color indexing for filing systems that rely on color-coded documents or branded materials. The included automatic document feeder eliminates manual sheet feeding, reducing operator fatigue and processing errors during high-volume capture sessions.

The Epson B11B275201 includes a limited 1-year warranty covering hardware defects and normal operation. The device is not ENERGY STAR certified or EPEAT compliant, and does not include a TCO certification.

Marty Allison

I've evaluated the Epson B11B275201 during planning for a document capture migration at a regional financial services organization. The multi-interface design—USB 3.2 Gen 1, Gigabit LAN, and Wi-Fi ac—proved valuable for deploying scanners in branch offices without dedicated server infrastructure. The 50 ppm throughput in color mode handled mixed invoice and statement batches without bottlenecking downstream OCR pipelines.

Technical Highlights:

• Color Depth & Resolution: 30-bit color at 600 dpi ensures archived scans remain legible and color-accurate for 10+ year retention cycles
• Dual-Mode Speed: 50 ppm in both color and monochrome eliminates mode-switching delays in mixed-document workflows

Deployment Considerations:

• The 8,000-scan-per-day duty cycle fits standard office use; validate against your peak-hour batch-processing requirements if planning 24/7 capture centers
• Wi-Fi ac connectivity reduces cabling but requires reliable network coverage; pair with wired LAN failover in mission-critical scan rooms

The automatic document feeder is essential for high-volume environments. Across typical office deployments, the B11B275201 justified its cost through reduced manual feed overhead and consistent OCR-ready output. Recommended for distributed capture and centralized archive workflows.
