The 4 star on easy to use is down to you have to rename, move, delete the folder made by the devices if you want to use on multiple days. it does not know what to do if the folder is already populated with PDF files. Little irritating, but not that big of a deal now that I know about it.
You have choices for scanning your documents. Using Machine Scan Settings menu on iPrint&Scan software, you create your profile to have your scanned documents saved to a folder on a computer on your network. Thats all you need.
Update: The thermal receipt got jammed and the software never quit processing. I tried closing the software, but it would not let me, telling me the scanner has not finished scanning! Dear software, I have already removed the paper jam and the machine is not displaying any error! Where is the error coming from? From my Mac, I tried quitting the app, but it would just not close it, so I could restart. After trying several times, I had to reboot my computer! This repeated every time I tried scanning my receipts again! It would not scan thermal receipts!. Finally, I decided to return it!.
I've got it set to scan to my PC via my network but I'm trying to find out how to determine a specific location for those scans to alway end up at. As it is, they are numbered files dropping into the Documents folder. Initially I saw something had created a Brother folder & I want to see how to establish that again.
I find it confusing using the Brother Utilities add on vs the Brother iPrint&Scan add on so I'm working my way through how to set the scanner to do the same thing each time without me having to open a program or re-set the exact same settings I just used right on the scanner touch screen. It's a new user bit of confusion I'm sure but the touch screen on the scanner is great. My old Zerox portable this is replacing was a 'plain jane' scanner that did things perfectly the same each time without a lot of fiddling around. I hope to eventually get that from this scanner. I only use it for home issues like copying bills, documents, etc. so my needs are basic.
More to follow as I get time to spend going through the features which honestly look good. My old Zerox protable was more metal whereas this is all plastic so it doesn't feel as sturdy as the old one but it's pretty solid & heavy for a portable so we'll see. I just bought a USB scanner cable & I'm going to connect it to my desk CPU & see how it performs that way vs the network. I'll update as soon as possible. Brother has an excellent reputation for quality so I'm sure this scanner will live up to that standard.

Para mim foi uma excelente compra com o melhor custo benefício.
A função de scannear diretamente no pen drive é formidável, ao usar esta função é criado uma pasta exclusiva no seu pen drive indicando com o arquivo scaneado, sem considerar scannear na rede sem fio é outro destaque que não deve ser ignorado, por ele ser compacto, pode ser colocado em qualquer lugar.
Tinha um scanner da Kodak até então era o top de linha na minha cabeça, resolvi trocar meu notebook por um All in One com Windows 11 e o meu scanner antigo não era compatível com o Windows 11 e a Kodak não tinha sequer previsão de atualização do Software para Windows 11. Em resumo fui obrigado a comprar um Scanner compatível com meu novo computador e de todos que pesquisei o Scanner Brother ADS1700W foi o melhor custo benefício.
Contacted support, they evaluated the problem and send a new scanner within three days.
Scans quick and clean, auto feeder works very well with assorted sizes.
