    I cross shopped the Fujitsu Scan-Snap, but for much less money decided on the Brother DS-920DW. The duplex function was a must, and it works quite well in Black and white or color. The battery power makes it great when you don’t want to look for an outlet. The major downside for me is the clunky software. The hardware is great so far, but the software is extremely stripped. It doesn’t allow for editing and it took a bit to find out to set my scans up the way I want them. Great piece of hardware though.

    I wanted a scan only device that was portable and easy to store. I had not researched prior to entering the store. After discussing the product features of two products with the Best Buy Sales Associate, I decided on this unit. I was pleased with the ease of set up and use with my MacBook Air. The scan process was easy, even for duplex, and good quality.

    We had one of these before, but needed to get a replacement because the on-board USB connector broke due to a pretty bad fall while the cable was attached. However, it worked really well for a portable scanner and was worth replacing. It handles duplex scans in BW, Greyscale, or color and can scan to an SD card if needed. It can easily be connected to a PC through a MicroUSB connection. The scanner claims to be wireless, but this is only if you connect your computer to the scanner as an access point. It doesn't mean that you can join the scanner to your network and use it that way. I've never tried this because it's easier just to scan to SD card or use the MicroUSB connection.

    Handy scanner for the Road Warrior

    I purchased this scanner primarily to scan receipts for business expenses while on the road, as well as other occasional documents. I had used a Neat portable scanner in the past and this functions similarly with some notable improvements. Epson also has their own software similar to Neat to use the OCR capabilities and enter them into a spreadsheet. It also has a clear sleeve for scanning wrinkled receipts. This is handy but sometimes cumbersome. This scanner will allow you to scan without being tethered to your computer, which is a very handy feature. I have not fully loaded the SD card this way yet so I can't speak to the capacity for storage. Software download and setup was typical Brother - complete and thorough but not without a glitch. It worked properly on second try.

    Bought this so that I can upload signed contracts and email customers when Im not at my desk. QUality of the scan is great and it does it fast. Doesn't always work the best when plugged in via cable with my MAC operating system, but just put in a memory card and scan it to that first and then transfer it over, works perfectly.

    For people my age, the ability to scan documents using something the size of a ruler was some real James Bond spy raft. The product works as advertised, easy to use and if you're able to understand working with PDF files, , you won't have any problems. Memory card transfer is easy.

    Duplex portable scanning

    This scanner provides the best of both worlds. It scans independently of a computer and connected via WiFi or USB cable. When scanning independently jpg images or PDF documents are stored via the included 4GB SD card. When connected to a computer with Windows, MAC or Linux based operating system the image appears via direct scan drivers or the Brother BR receipts software. The only difficulty I've had is connecting with WiFi, which is likely due to my network. Very small footprint, light, and it charges when connected via USB - or take the rechargeable batteries out and pop them into your own wall charger.

    Good buy for a portable scanner. Somewhat cumbersome if you are scanning multiple pages at once. Otherwise, great portability and holds a charge well (as long as wifi is off).

    Works great, super portable. Scans are clear and it's easy to use. Only complaint... when duplex scanning, files are not automatically associated with each other, but that's a software issue.

    I gave this product a 4.0, only because to get wireless connection to function seems a bit tricky with my MacBook Pro. Over a great device, it holds its charge for quite a long time. I charged it upon opening about a month ago. About 30 scans and still 75% battery life still available. 4 GB memory card included (Sufficient Capacity) for my needsI. If you wish to use larger capacity card it must be first formatted. Seemed easy enough from directions included to format additional SD Cards. Easy slide lever to adjust scanner for 4X6 , 5X8 photos Din A4 and Standard U.S. page sizes.

    Good product because it does documents as PDFs and Pictures. Takes variable sizes and does duplex in one pass. Did have some problems on some cardboard mounted photos, but my stationary scanner had the same problem. Will record to SD card or to PC. Does not have ability to act as network scanner, but it is a portable. My lawyer saw it and immediately went out and bought one. Would have given it 5 stars if it networked.

    This is an awesome product, I reccomend getting only the major software, the others make things confusing. Also, I would watch because it can become jammed kind of easily.
