Rated 5 out of 5 by from Me resulta muy útil Lo compré hace unos meses y me va bastante bien con el

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Un escáner portátil que cumple el propósito Este escáner cubre los objetivos que perseguía: un dispositivo pequeño que digitalice documentos de una o de pocas hojas a un precio contenido y para uso personal. La calidad del escaneado es aceptable aunque en ocasiones las hojas se tuercen durante el proceso y hay que volver a hacerlo. La aplicación de ordenador para usarlo es simple pero permite lo esencial (reordenar y girar las páginas escaneadas). Ahora echo de menos que la conexión sea por wifi y no por cable, pero existe el modelo que la tiene pagando algo más.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Uitermate slechte kwaliteit Na 1 jaar meteen de gekende problemen, zoals het met all toestellen al is gegaan van Brother: werkt niet meer. De scanner had meteen binnen het jaar problemen:papier scheef scannen terwijl het er mooi recht ingaat, neemt papier niet mee door, steeds problemen met de kwaliteit, doet geen updates, altijd wat, net zoals alle printers die we hebben gehad> Gedaan met Brother, tis Brol

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Scanning On The Go! For me, the huge benefit to this little scanner is that I can use it in my car. I work with a cat rescue group, mostly transporting cats and kittens to and from a clinic, where they are tested, vaccinated and spayed or neutered. Keeping track of their treatment is important, as many go on to cat adoption organizations who require a record of their treatment. We receive a paper copy from the clinic, and for added security, I scan this into my computer as well. Since the paperwork stays with the cat, being able to scan the paperwork on our way to drop them off saves time. I take my Apple MacBook and this scanner with me and I can set the scanner up on the dashboard, connect the cable and I’m in business. I did try a cheaper hand scanner, but the image wasn’t satisfactory. It was hard to scan the document smoothly and what I ended up with was smaller than I wanted. This scanner is not much bigger and it draws in the document to scan it, so the quality of the scan is excellent.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from logiciel de scann lamentable Pour une firme tel qu Brother le scan d'une feuille blanche devrait au minimun supprimer les bords gris ainsi que les plis de la feuille.
