        Correct and intuitive

        Small, simple and effective scanner. Scanning quality isn't breathtaking (the images obtained are a little overexposed, but in proportions comparable to what an office scanner produces), but it's still more than good enough to be readable and usable. Rigid documents such as ID cards are also easy to scan.
        Works in plug and play with the basic utility supplied with Windows 7. Under Linux Mint 22, it also works without having to download the driver from the Brother site, but in a degraded way (does not manage duplexing or continuous scanning).
        I'm also withdrawing one star because the plastic guide has no stop (it slides freely) and therefore has to be repositioned after each scan, which is a bit of a pain.
        The advertised scan speed of "15 pages/minute" is a bit misleading: a page is indeed scanned in 4 seconds, but the scanner has no feeder and swallows all the sheets it is given. The actual speed therefore depends mainly on the skill of the user...

        A good mobile scanner

        Easy to install on both win10 and linux (drivers are on the Brother website)
        Good quality scans for both docs and photos (with the optional stand to protect fragile photos)
        Fast and efficient - I recommend this model.

        no sheet guide

        PC interface: Scanner is well recognized under linux Mint 20, even in double-sided scanning.
        However, the sheet is not guided and every other time it loads the wrong way and can even damage the original.
        The sheet is loaded from the bottom and exits at the top.
        However, the flap is handy if you don't have room on your desk.

        Great!

        Product is as I expected. It is possible to use it without the Brother software (free), but in this case, the scan only uses the default settings. Very practical: I set it up in front of my screen with the U-shaped output (except for rigid documents, where I use the flat output) and I get my papers back without needing extra space.
        What I like best is being able to string together text documents one after the other knowing that the device automatically scans the versos if I ask it to. No need to remember if I've already scanned this or that page...

        Mobile scanner

        The device is well designed, compact and feels quite solid.
        It's easy to plug in and setting up the scan is simple with the Brother application.

        Satisfied!

        The colour scanned image is perfect. The only thing I'm slightly disappointed about is the number of sheets it can scan at the same time (maybe I didn't read the product description properly). I'm very pleased with the quality of the product and the ease of use, but it's a very good product that I've installed on my desk and use often!

        Excellent, the product and LDLC

        I was very satisfied with the quality of the product and the rendering of the scans.
        But also very satisfied with the quality of the service provided by LDLC.

        Congratulations to the team...

        Very good product

        The product is as described and as I expected.
        I've been using it for a while now and it's a great product.
        I don't give it a 10/10 because if you can indeed scan small rigid documents (e.g. car registration card), you can't scan a rigid A4 document.
