Overview

A discreet and powerful scanner

The Brother ADS-1200 is a compact and intelligent scanner ideal for digitising and organising all your information in a simple and time-saving way. This equipment accompanies you in your digital transition with a mono & colour scanning speed (A4) of up to 25 ppm. Equipped with a USB interface, it features a control panel with LEDs and buttons to simplify your daily use. Most importantly, the ADS-1200 follows you wherever you go. It can be powered by USB, allowing it to work only when connected to a PC and without a power adapter. A must for professionals on the move. With this Brother scanner, you can be more productive while optimising your workspace.

A new asset in your daily life

Scan at speeds of up to 25 pages per minute and save your documents to your USB stick, email server or directly to your computer. You can also edit the content of your scanned documents with the "scan to OCR" (optical character recognition) function.

From the 20-sheet Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), you can scan documents up to 128 g/m² thick. The ADS-1200 also has a front slot for scanning plastic ID-1 cards (health cards, driving licences, European ID cards).

As mobile as you are

The compact ADS-1200 scanner fits perfectly into small work spaces. Barely larger than an A4 sheet of paper, it allows you to scan your documents with a minimum of space.

The ADS-1200 can be used and transported anywhere. The scanner can be operated without a power adapter and can be connected to a PC via USB. When you are finished using the ADS-1200, you can store it in your desk drawer or briefcase and take it with you wherever you go.

Take it a step further and make the ADS-1200 completely self-contained. This scanner can be self-powered with an external battery and become 100% mobile.

    Lots of bugs

    I invested in this scanner to have easy access to my office to scan my documents. After two months of use, I've noticed a lot of bugs. Very regularly, papers get stuck. It takes an inordinate amount of time to unblock them, switch the scanner off and on again. The software is also very poorly designed. I had to find other independent software, because the basic software could never be installed with Windows 11. In short, for the price, I wouldn't recommend it at all.

    Very good scanner and amazingly good software suite (OCR in particular), drivers for Win and Linux!

    The equipment works well. Compact, but fast. Installation is easy on both Windows 10 and Linux. And the OCR software provided is of high quality, superior to the competing product from the Adobe cloud: a great surprise!

    Do the job

    Beware, the connection cable (micro USB 3.0 type B) is not included! It's really petty of Brother to indulge in this kind of practice, especially for equipment in this price range -> - 1 star.

    The device works perfectly after a little struggle to install the drivers. It can scan double-sided documents directly to PDF on a USB stick, which is very practical.

    delivered without connection cable

    The scanner is delivered without a connection cable...this is a pity. I would like to see this mentioned in the description, it would save time.
