Customer Ratings & Reviews

--- SETUP --- The setup of the scanner is quick and simple. It comes with a USB 3.0 cable but no USB adapter. You can use your phone adapter or any computer with a USB port. You may use the scanner while it is charging, but it’s purpose is to be a portable charger, allowing you to scan away from a plug with it’s Li-ion battery. --- FEATURES --- The key feature of this scanner is that it works completely wirelessly after charging the battery. No Wi-Fi required for it to work, as it has its own direct WiFi to your mobile device. Can scan double-sided documents, in color, with no bleedthrough. Can store scanned files directly to a Micro SD card. --- PERFORMANCE --- The performance of this scanner is phenomenal. As an educator, I often find myself wanting to scan student work to showcase later, after making some notes. The scanner is fast and the double-sided feature eliminates a second scan-through. The scanner has a feature that grabs the document and pulls it in a little so that you know the paper has been recognized. This same feature is a great way to see if your document is aligned properly or not before you scan. Scanning one page takes about 5 seconds even when double-sided is an option. I mainly used this scanner with the Brother app (iPrint&Scan) on iPhone. The app offers a few, limited features, such as cropping or straightening an angled document, but those features leave a lot to be desired. Luckily, if you set up the documents correctly and choose the right size of paper prior to scan (letter, A4), you shouldn’t use those features because the scanner does an excellent job. --- EXPECTATIONS --- The product meets my expectations. I’ve used many scanners at my job, and most often they have left me disappointed. This one has ticked all the right boxes for me and more. I got this at the right time, right before doing my taxes, and I trusted it enough to scan sensitive documents and saved them to my cloud storage of choice. --- VALUE --- The price for the scanner in terms of value is a worthy investment if you plan on scanning often and on the go. --- APPROVAL --- I highly recommend this product for people who scan on the go and are dissatisfied by using the mobile app scanners from phones.

This is very small and fits in tight spaces. It can scan both sides of the sheet if necessary. Easy to use and install. Works Great.

We have a larger scanner that is part of an all-in-one printer-copier-fax machine. This scanner was purchased for easy quick scans of one or two-page documents (single or double sided) and receipts from the desktop. It has worked really well and we are glad we bought it.

I have been looking for a scanner to compliment my Laser printer in the office. After alot of looking, I settled on this model. I am glad I did. Easy to use, scans duplex licenses, docs, etc. Wifi included. Nice small footprint when there isnt alot of space, about similar size to a 3 Hole punch. So far so good.

This is a handy and versatile scanner. It comes with software you can use if desired, but even as a stand-alone scanner writing to a micro SD (<=32gb) card, it is easy to use and convenient. Get rid of all of your extra old receipts and papers easily. Is not like an auto-feeder on a larger scanner which will write one PDF from multiple pages, but for 1 or 2-sided items, it writes high quality PDF (or other formats) files.

Needed a wireless portable document scanner for work and for my genealogy research. Good option. Sturdy build, duplex scanning, easy setup, and works great. I also purchased CSA3401 Optional Carrier Sheets (2 pack) directly from Brother for scanning damaged documents or delicate documents. A must if you are scanning receipts. Also useful when I am scanning documents for genealogical research. I don't always have to lug my Canon Lide around unless the document is extremely fragile or bound.

Love this little unit. Took me about 5 years to long to decide to get one of these. Works great and very easy to use.

I purchased this to have at work as an alternative to going to another office to scan a document. It is so easy and FAST to use. Single or multiple pages. I read lots of reviews since I had no previous experience with mini scanners. I would spend the money over again to be able to get the job done without leaving my office.

This scanner was a little difficult to connect to my home wifi. However, once I got it to recognize the network and sign in, there have been no issues. It is very important to read the instructions thoroughly and keep them handy during the setup process. The scanner works very well and seems to be high-quality. It was a little pricey compared to the non-wireless model, but I like that this one can connect directly to my iPad and Android smartphone without using cables or a wifi network.

What a pleasure to use, especially the one step duplex! Software is easy to install and stays installed! I continued to have problems with another brand's bar scanner as the software would constantly disappear or stop working. Not so with the Brother. I use the scanner to mainly scan post cards, it handles all widths and paper thickness with ease!

Purchased the DS940 to scan ~1000 business cards, and to scan receipts etc. I considered to snap the cards with my phone but decided to take the scanner route as it is much simpler and reliable. The Wifi and usb connection use cases works very well, i have not yet tried to scan to the memory card but imagine that this is very handy for folks on the go. Happy for my purchase.

Worked with my Mac and also Windows laptop using the downloaded Brother scanning software. It also works with the built-in Windows scanning program. This scanner will scan both sides of a letter page at once, which is really convenient for me. Quality of the paper scans is high - I use it to scan mostly office documents for my small business. Highly recommended!

I own a trucking business and this was a perfect item for my drivers to scan proof of deliveries to me with now hassle. No more retaking pics and bad phone quality. I would recommend for drivers.

We love our Brother Portable Scanner! We bought 2 of them and use them all the time at our office for the many documents that we need to upload to our cloud file system.

Simple and easy to set up. Truly portable, it goes with me in my backback just about everywhere. I have not used the wireless function yet, I always plug in via USB 2.0. Smooth, fast scanning.

Absolutely excellent scanner. Works great with my Mac and my windows PC. I can use it wireless or plugged into my computers. Scans one page at a time, then on my screen, I can say the next page is page 2, or 3, etc. to create long document. I read the directions online and now I understand it all.

Does everything I wanted in a portable scanner. Love it. In fact, I'm thinking about buying a second one.

Great scanner and good price. Have been using for personal and business use. Small, compact and loaded with features. Have owned the scanner for 3 weeks and very pleased.

This little guy rocks! With duplex scanning and great-looking photo scans, what's not to like? Super easy set up both wirelessly and usb.

Great, High quality scanner. Works great for scanning documents, is fast and reliable. No issues with speed or quality. Mobile app works great.
