Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love this little scanner! I originally wanted a battery powered one, but this is so simple! It just plugs in via usb to your computer and that powers it...practically wireless. My only complaints are: 1. that the glass gets dirty and you have to clean it more often than I'd like. 2. Smaller pieces of paper (like some receipts) won't go through it, but I got a few carrier sheets and it works like a charm!

I really like Brother products. Finally upgraded my flatbed scanner with a compact portable scanner. Brother DS-740D scanner has some different scanning options, so it took a little time to try them out. Duplex feature is great if you are scanning photos with written comments on back. You can scan two images - first being the photo and the second being the back of the photo.

The scanner on my printer just took forever to operate, and I’m doing more scanning these days, so was looking for something better. Well, this is it. Small desk footprint, simple to set up and operate, and faster than heck. USB-3 I think. Speedy. Very happy with this model. Tried the one with Wifi first, too quirky and more complex. This is perfect.

Very nice for scanning single items and two sided copies are effortless. It would be nice if continuous copying was supported so multiple scans could be grouped into a single pdf.

The directions to load the driver on my computer were easy to follow. This device can scan small documents like receipts up to a regular size piece of paper. I was able to scan and save about 10 pages easily and I have never used a scanner that was not also a printer. It does require scanning and saving each page separately as far as I can tell. It did exactly what I needed and won’t take up much space. I recommend it.

This is the third DS-740D I've owned. Scans well and the speed is decent. The duplex feature is fantastic to have on the road. I wish the unit was a little less prone to jams though. But compared to other models available, this unit is great.

Great portable scanner! Compact and priced right too!

love it easy to use plug and play love how it can be put in drawer or on side not big pretty small

Document scanner works as advertised. Only problem I had was lining up document for scanning. If paper is not completely lined up, scanner will give you the Red error light (and stop mid scan) and you have to pull out paper , unplug power cord and then reset scanner by plugging power cord back in. Once I learned how to line documents up correctly I rarely have had this problem. Otherwise very good Scanner! I use it a lot for scanning cards, various size documents, etc.

This scanner does exactly as described. it is compact and easy to use. I am happy with the purchase. I was not a fan with the function of the receipt software that it comes with but the business card software is very helpful and the scanner has many helpful features.

I've have been having a awesome time with this little scanner. I only need it for a few pages here and there, so i don't know how it would work on a larger project, but its been perfect for what i need.

Solid little machine. Disappointment in right adjustable document feeder guide. Should be made with some resistance. Slides too easily. I did return this item as I replaced it with slightly better model that is chargeable and wireless. The feeder guide on the more expensive model is very loose and moves too easily as well. Both produce good quality scans, and would have kept this one if price had been the sticking point.

Love it, its easy to use. However, the software installation extensive.

Needed this to replace my Brother scanner DS620 which was not compatible with my new iMac. This 740D is so much faster and does both sides at once. I love it!

Very nice scanner. Use to scan business receipts. Also scans large full pages. Scans on both side of paper at once. Will probably buy another to use at home.

Product is really easy to use. The process is quick and I would recommend this product for anyone in need of quick, easy, reliable scanning.

Love the product and it was very easy to use and doesn’t take up a lot of space

This scanner works like a charm. Great resolution and true color making fast document saving. The duplex feature is a plus
