Epson Wins 2025 Scanner Line of the Year Award from Keypoint Intelligence
Fairfield, NJ – Keypoint Intelligence, the leading market research firm and independent evaluator of print and smart technology and services, announces that Epson America, Inc., has won the coveted Buyers Lab (BLI) 2025 Scanner Line of the Year Award. Given once a year, this accolade recognizes the vendor that has the product line deemed best overall based on lab evaluations and in-depth market research.
To determine the Scanner Line of the Year Award recipient, Keypoint Intelligence considers current scanners in the vendor’s portfolio that have been submitted for lab testing, along with previously tested devices that are still available. To judge the overall quality of the line, analysts look at the overall rating a device received after testing, as well as the ratings in key areas including usability, media handling, image quality, and speed.
“Our evaluation of Epson’s scanner range highlighted consistent excellence in performance and innovation,” said Pete Emory, Director of Research & Lab Services NA/APAC at Keypoint Intelligence. “From their productivity results to professional-grade image quality, the six tested Epson devices in 2024 set a benchmark for meeting and exceeding the evolving needs of office and hybrid workplaces. Advanced feature sets combined with intuitive usability, as well as excellent automation of workflows and integration with existing infrastructure, further solidify the company’s strong position in the industry.”
“Epson’s latest scanners truly impressed, with several from the group earning Pick Awards,” said Mark Davis, Analyst in Keypoint Intelligence’s Workplace Group. “Supported by a strong scan client and bundled software, these devices are capable of producing excellent results time after time, as well as providing flexibility and security in how users handle their digitized data.
“What also needs to be highlighted here is the vision Epson projects for the future of scan,” Davis continued. “Epson’s development of software such as EdgeLink, which ensures integration with existing third-party infrastructure, confirms a desire to be a market leader in both hardware and software, consistently setting industry standards.”
“We are dedicated to developing scanning solutions that deliver image quality, reliability and ease of use that customers can depend on,” said Carrie Fox, Director of Scanners, Consumables & Retail Channel Marketing at Epson America. “The 2025 Scanner Line of the Year Award recognition from Keypoint Intelligence underscores Epson’s innovation and commitment to providing quality technology that meets market needs.”
