PURCHASE YOUR EPSON PRODUCT THROUGH AN AUTHORIZED DEALER OR FROM EPSON DIRECTLY.
This is not a review of this product, but rather a word to the wise... Two and half months after my purchase of an Epson 10000XL scanner through Amazon, it stopped working. Through the followup and tech support process I learned that, because I purchased through Amazon, the manufacturer nor the seller would honor the 1 year warranty. Epsons position is that Amazon is not an authorized seller and that they merely act as broker for what can often be re-furbished or second hand merchandise.
So, should your purchase break or malfunction, as mine did, you are out of luck with regard to warranty.
This lesson cost me $2400.00

After looking at all the available options, I picked the 822p because of the performance specs and its ability to connect it to a LAN. After a no-brainer setup, and connection into my home network, it has (after only 10 hours of use) shown itself to have the right stuff. I will admit that getting detailed information, on exactly what data were available over the network, was a negative. Calling the Epson "presales" phone number was not really very useful. It turns out that the 822p and 83c are twins (well almost) but I didnt find out the details until I had purchased the 822p and was reading the instruction book which covers both units. All-in-all, I really like the 822p for its bright, sharp picture, even on the wall which is "off white"..
