To avoid losing them to deterioration or natural disasters, families can turn to versatile scanning solutions like the FastFoto FF-680W Wireless High-Speed Photo Scanning System. Quickly scan thousands of photos – as fast as one photo per second1 and easily restore, save, and organize old photos, postcards, panoramas, and documents. Priceless memories can be digitized, salvaged, and brought back to life with auto enhancement, color restoration and enlargements.
Share Your Memories for Generations to Come
Instantly upload digitized photos to online storage solutions for archiving, email them to grandparents or siblings, or share them during family gatherings or through social media. Together with the Epson FastFoto app,2 capture the voice of loved ones and create custom videos with music, audio, text, and transitions from an iOS® or Android™ smartphone or device, and relive treasured moments for generations to come.
Craft and Decorate with Memories
Adored photographs can also be utilized to decorate the home or crafted into personalized gifts. While original copies are meant for safe-keeping, additional lab-quality color photo copies can be printed from the convenience of the home with the cartridge-free EcoTank Photo ET-8500 and EcoTank Photo ET-8550 all-in-one Supertank printers.
