Nice basic scanner

I bought this as a backup portable scanner in case my larger scanner didn't work as expected. I tested it at home and it works great. It's also good if I need to scan just a page here and there and don't want to use the Adobe scan app on my phone.

Not worth it

I enjoy the small footprint but the power cord is touchy as well as the actual operation of this scanner. I found myself very frustrated with the paper port feeding mechanism also. If there is a true need for this you can make it work but you shouldn't have to work so hard at scanning anything.

The 940 has problems taking the paper to scan

We have used these portable scanners for years, here and in Italy. The model we used the most was theDS 620. Three of those are 8-10 years old and still working. But they are old enough they are no longer supported on the newer Mac OS systems. So we purchased this 940 model. For the most part it is very similar. The only problem with it is it tends to be very finicky grabbing the paper. It can often take several attempts to get the paper to grab and then be taken in a scan run. The kind of paper does not seem to matter. The 620’s never cared and took the paper the first try.

The worst scanner

The worst scanner. It does not work with iPhone 14 or iPhone 15 pro max. The battery does not last at all and extremely expensive so that it does not work wirelessly. I spent my money

get to know b4 you buy

Although I love the end result ,, the instructions on using the machine are lacking ,, no instructions , I read other reviews online to find out how to start this thing.. I guess I have to go online and get the instructions. I still done know how to turn the 2 sided scan on and off ,, and the software ? well ,, there's Brother Iprint ,, ok, but then there's this sep[erate way you can use it without that software ,,HUH !! and I'm not a novice tag this stuff,,, and what's with that flap ? it sticks up and doesn't go down so when you have a stiff piece you want to scan,, you can't ,,, the worst design I ever saw ,, at least make it go flat..as Isaid ,, once I get to know this machine .. I'll probably love it ,, but the learning curve is way to much Paul

terrible, terrible machine

The software is beyond flaky -- it's just infuriating. I have extensive technical experience and it took me two hours to set this thing up. Some things just don't work as promised -- push scanning, for example, is a non-starter. The WiFi indicator blinks even when WiFi is connected. The software is 2004 standard, with unhelpful buttons like "Machine Settings" and "Machine Scan Settings" right next to each other. Need I go on? Browse the incomprehensible Brother Web site for a while. It's a mishmash of outdated, wrong, and bizarrely wrong information. This seems like a capable machine, but it's paired with truly terrible software.
