Overview
Not a scanner tied to one computer, this Brother scanner sends pages over WiFi to phones, cloud services and email, or over a USB cable. A color touchscreen holds shortcuts for common destinations.
Scanning to the cloud or a phone without a PC running is what the wireless model adds over a plain USB scanner. The feeder still holds only a short stack, which slows very large jobs.
Who it's for
Home offices and small teams sharing one scanner. High volume archive projects need a larger feeder.
Pros and cons
- WiFi and phone app scanning
- Scans straight to cloud
- Card slot for IDs
- Receipt and card apps bundled
- Some software needs a download
- Windows only for some apps
Performance notes
Speed figures hold at standard resolution with advanced features off; image cleanup adds time. Over WiFi, transfer depends on the network, while the touchscreen lets you start scans without a computer.
