Very practical machine to keep electronic versions and backups of important documents. Sometimes, it's hard to scan that were previously folded with perfect alignment. I like that it doesn't take much place on the desk while folded.Two things keep me from giving a perfect five stars: 1) A receiving tray for scanned documents would be nice. Once scanned, documents can become tangled or fall off the table. Something could be done about this in the design, I think. 2) The software provided with the scanner is far from being perfect. One thing that I really dislike (amongst other that I won't list unless I'm asked) is the fact that documents scanned wirelessly just drop in a folder on the computer with out prompting the software window. In particular, this means you have to go back and rename every file scanned wirelessly in Windows Explorer. It would be so nice if the formating window would pop up and give me the same options as when I prompt the scan directly from the computer.

I love this thing when it is working. It doesn't jam often and you can scan a large number of papers quickly. But whenever I change my WiFi password or try to take it from home to work, it is a huge pain to set up. Also this scanner works well for documents but not pictures as it can leave artifacts on images.

UPDATE June 12, 2017: (Wireless works perfectly with my LAPTOP computer). I currently use this for so many types of scanning. It can easily do double-sided scanning, in color OR black and white. I have scanned many things, such as medical summaries, receipts (because most fade away...) business cards, charitable receipts, pharmacy receipts, user manuals. I have even put plastic cards (I've done my medical cards) through the slot in the back and they scan BOTH sides perfectly, which makes it great to be able to have it on hand when I need a quick access to it in my office. The only thing that I STILL can't get it to do it to be able to use it wirelessly. I have set up the wi-fi on it, but due to the amount of electronics that we use these days, I think I would have hoped I could have set it somewhere else rather than on my desk. However, after a few weeks of use, I am THANKFUL that it is sitting on my desk! I just plug it into my computer tower to use with my pc. I think this is a pretty good little scanner!

The product setup documentation is poor. That is why most people who try to install this product return the product. initially tried to install the wifi, could not, then hooked the usb cable, the usb driver was not recognized, and it looked like it was not installed. then it pop-up. Now I tried to install the wifi. the setup guides for wps (encryption process) key setup. I am using a newer router which does not have the wps support. no button to press. being an IT expert myself, i was able to figure out and used the advanced method to configure. So far so good. the scanner is configured, scanned the document using control center. Next step was to try to use the button to scan to pc. Did not work. went to brother support on chat, and I was told oh this product does not support the button scan, that is supported by out next higher model, I need to upgrade. Instead of providing proper support the support sent my request to sales and they sent me offer to upgrade to next model. The support mention that this product does not have the feature to press the scan button to scan to pc. I received email from team lead with the upgrade offerI figured out that the support was useless. I am IT expert and thinking what will happen with a person with basic computer skills. they will never be able to configure this with wifi setup with newer routers.The ADS1000W has a feature to scan to usb. I tested that and it worked and gave me confidence that there is touch sensor on the scanner. two step process. first touch the usb led (select) and the touch the green led. This proved that the Brother support was wrong and the scan (button) sensor was working. next I hooked up a USB cable and now the USB led light was on. I had to re-configure for USB. I touch the usb led and then the green led and the scanner scanned to PCLater I disconnected my current brother network multi function printer and reconfigured the scanner for wifi. now the pc1 led light came up. This time I touched the pc1 led and then the green led and the document was scanned to pc.The scanner works however being poor documentation and poor support, a person with basic computer skills will not be able to configure. there are lot of steps missing in the setup instructions for wifi setup. poor support. the support that tries to upsell higher models. it seemed that they had no idea of the product line. and they have no phone number, the computer has to be rebooted and the support agent is lost, next connection a new agent comes in who has no clue and wants to start from zero.In summary, I will only suggest this product if you have good knowledge about the network setup or some one is going to help you.

The Amazon listing says, "You can also scan to a shared folder, email server, or FTP, to save, distribute, and share information."After pulling my hair out for hours trying to figure out how to get it to scan to a shared folder, I found this in the manual: "Scan to Network allows you to scan documents directly to a shared folder." However, it also says "ADS-1500W/ADS-1600W only".I purchased this scanner for the purpose of scanning to my network storage device, and apparently it was false advertising that it is capable of doing so.It is difficult to overstate how bad the software is that comes with the scanner. Even though I'm running Windows 8.1, it looks like it was designed for Windows 95. It also feels like it was designed for Windows 95, in that it is a horrible flashback to the era before programmers started trying to make their software easy to use for regular people.When I initially set up the scanner, I plugged it in via USB. Even though most of the time I'd want to use it at home on WiFi, I thought that sometimes I might want to take it out with me to scan with it directly attached to my computer. After getting it working on USB, I then tried to get it working on my WiFi.Once everything ist installed, to get started, you launch a program called Brother Utilities. This program is bizarrely pointless, as it seems to only exist so you can click a link in it to launch ControlCenter4, the actual software.Once you open ControlCenter4, you're greeted with 3 tabs: Scan, Device Settings, and Support. When you enter Device Settings, you have three options, Remote Setup (which brings up a settings page), Scan to PC Settings (which brings up the exact same settings page, only highlighting a different setting), and Device Scan Settings (which brings up some more settings related to scanning on a different page). In addition, on the top of the window, there is also a Configuration button, which also brings up other options.In order to set it up on WiFi, you need to click an additional button titled Scan to Net Settings, but if you initially set it up in the installer using USB, this is just not present, with nothing to indicate what the problem is. After hours of pulling out my hair, I finally discovered this issue and uninstalled and reinstalled in WiFi mode to get the WiFi working.At first, it couldn't find my WiFi network. It turns out that even though it supports 802.11n, it only supports it on the older 2.4GHz band, so I had to go into my router and change my entire network from the better performing newer 5GHz band so that my scanner would work.Now, the WiFi works now to scan to the specific computer I installed the software on, but it no longer works over USB plugged into my computer. Guess you can't have your cake and eat it too. And it still doesn't scan to a shared folder like it says it does in the product description, it can only send the document to the computer with the software installed on it.Another point that wasn't clear to my from the description is that the scanner has no OCR capabilities on its own. It can just be set up to send the scan to OCR software you install on your computer. This means that any scans made with USB keys plugged directly into the scanner will not have OCR.

Scans super fast, ADF(automatic document feeder) works great, paper should be straight without crumbled edges to ensure good feed scans. Stand-alone product can scan directly to USB drive(not provided) or a running computer. This model does not scan to email or ftp as a stand-alone...to scan to email or ftp you'll need to use the provided software on your computer to do so. (this is important to know as I thought differently when I purchased, but still rated 5 stars based on it's other options).To setup the item, I used a wireless laptop with a usb connected for preliminary setup. The software found the unit, found the wireless SSID name, and applied my settings to the device. From my Windows 7 desktop and Windows 8 laptops it found the device rather easily as well (once it was connected to the wireless network). For example (Windows 7) You just go to "Start" ->"control panel" -> "View devices and printers" -> "add a device" -> "find the ADS-1000W" and add it. Then use the software in the package or your own favorite software to scan and create PDF's, JPGs etc.Speed: When scanning black and white images over the wireless the sheets feed through super quick and it gets transmitted to the computer or usb stick(not provided) very quick too... Business speed ready in my opinion. As for full hi-resolution color, it scans a bit slower(but still fast compared to others) but it transmits over the wireless a little too slow due to the size of the PDF or JPG it's transmitting over your wireless network. If you're scanning 2 or 3 hi-res images the time to transmit it to your computer via wireless is tolerable, but if you plan on scanning 10 to 15 hi-res images/documents to one PDF, plugging in the direct USB connection might be your best bet. (I didn't try the 10 to 15 hi-res documents to test out the speed, I'm only estimating based on the 2 hi-res color documents time to transmit over wirreless to my PC.)I've personally tested this device on Windows 7 Pro and Windows 8 Standard and used 1 gig USB drive for direct scanning in stand-alone mode. (stand-alone mode meaning no computer necessary)ONE MORE GREAT FEATURE: when scanning to a LOCAL USB drive in stand-alone mode, the scanner scans both sides of the document at once which SAVES huge amounts of time on duplex documents. The unit is perfect desktop size. The paper feeder has hinges which allows it to fold down and close up to a small rectangular box (great for travel or just desk space savings) which automatically tells the device to go in standby mode. Also, when you unfold the paper feeder, it has two extra supports that extend the paper feeder another 6 inches beyond what the stock picture shows which gives the paper more support when you have a larger stack of 8.5 x 11. This extension allows for better paper support to keep the papers straight while being fed into the machine. This model DOES not have a LCD digital display (another model above this I think does, but it's not necessary), It has a smooth touch pad like a laptop that has 6 static icons that light up for different functions (like scan directly to usb, start scan, scan to pc1,scan to pc2, stop scan, usb is connected).Sheet feeder holds 20 sheets I think the specs say so if you scan a large number of documents then you might want to look at the 50 sheet feeder option on another Brother model. For small contracts and home documents it works perfect. They also include a clear "wrapping sheet" that is used to scan different sized items such a receipts. This clear sheet keeps small receipts from getting jammed. I also noticed on the back it has a place to scan cards like licenses, business cards etc. I haven't tried that option yet though.Overall great product with business like speed, great options, great quality in a small compact unit.
