QuestionCan I buy a printer that may NOT need a computer connection?
Asked 10 years ago by jimkatep.
- Answer I'm not sure if your question was regarding this scanner, sense you mentioned "printer" in your question. But just to be clear this item is a scanner only no printing capability. That being said it does have the ability to scan to a USB dive without needing a connection to computer directly. Hope this answers helps with your possible purchase.

QuestionCould this model scan photos effectively? I need one that will handle documents and photos. I have lots of old ones that I want to preserve.
Asked 9 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Not going to give you a perfect picture image. Probably want to check out a flatbed scanner for photos or a scanner designed for scanning. I attached a couple of photos. One is a postcard (heavy paper) the other obviously a print from Disneyland. Hope that helps

QuestionI need a scanner with Twain driver.Scanner for a medical record and needs it. I don't know what is it.
Asked 11 years ago by Manuel.
- Answer TWAIN compliant means that any program that wants to use your scanner will attempt to do so via the TWAIN driver. Most, if not all scanners, will list if they support this in their specifications. The software you're using for medical records most likely expects/requires a scanner that supports this driver. The ADS-1500W from Brother is TWAIN Compliant as referenced on their website specifications.

QuestionHow many pages can the scanner scan at a time?
Asked 7 years ago by Lizz.
- Answer I’ve scanned up to 11pages easily. The feeder seems to be getting tight when I try to put in 20 pages. I’m sure you could keep adding pages as they feed through so theoretically you could feed thru any number of pages.
