Works as stated. Easy to install and scans receipts clearly onto computer.
Mike –
Simple to install amd easy to use, there not much to configure and makes scanning easy and space to spare
Justme –
Returned as it did not solve my problem of needing to scan to a PDF file.
Mobes –
Purchased this scanner to assist in my work from home and my personal use also. Best purchase ever, sleek, nice looking and works well. Would recommend this brand and item.
Bandit23 –
Scanner works totally awesome, extremely good detailed scans and very easy to use
Tek1980 –
Never work i tried everything. Calling for help but got nowhere
Ddeck –
Great Product, low price and high quality/ performance too!!!
brotherscannerreview –
I like the compactness. Drawing power from the 1 connection to the computer makes things simpler and more efficient. Image quality is good.
Magpie –
By far the best $90 I’ve ever spent. My flatdeck scanner was always such a pain to use – this little guy is fast, I can control exactly where the scanned page goes and in what format, and I can add additional pages easily. I love it!
jktech –
great portable scanner with excellent quality. very quick scanning. I often have to scan documents on the go and it’s the perfect solution
Soni –
This scanner is very small and does everything you need it to do.
Skip –
Of all the scanners I have used this is one of the worst I have ever used. Quality is below what I expected from Brother. I was unable to get a decent scan after several tries. Not built to Brothers standard as far as I was concerned.
Mary –
This scanner is perfect for my home office where I just need to do occasional scanning. Quality is decent and doesn’t take up much room. Took a little to set up on my Mac, but now everything is good.
Jacob –
This scanner is a fantastic easy-to-use device for those who are committed to DIY projects rather than hiring professionals to do these tasks. I used this scanner to digitize my family’s photo albums so that we had a digital archive that can be accessed anywhere. The quality is high enough that if I wanted to reprint any of these photos, there would not be a significant loss of quality. And the file sizes are not storage limit destroyers for wherever you choose to store the digital files.
Once you get into a flow, the scanning process goes relatively quickly. The scanner does jam frequently but because of the size, all you have to do is pop it open and try again. If you don’t rush it, it won’t jam.

Scanning documents and OCR works fine on MacOS. Software is easy to use for just pure scanning and saving pdf. Very simplistic but perfect for my needs. This scanner only takes documents with a few pages at most so no scanning of magazines or books, etc.
CMOHR54 –
The scanner is super easy to use. The software is a little dated but otherwise I have been extremely impressed.
Oldtimertryingtokeepup –
We bought this for our daughter to take to college, super easy to use and set up. Scan quality is amazing for such a small unit. Wish it had the carry sleeve with it like our first one did, otherwise we’ll worth the money
Papong –
works really good better copies than I thought and real easy setup with adequate software
Ipad –
Fine Product, goes where I want, allows me to record time-sensitive tax documents before the ink fades. Hooks up to my laptop with no trouble. Online service outstanding.
Diana –
I purchased this for my son during school shut downs since he had to constantly submit his work. He Absolutely loved this item and stopped him from having to get up and use the family printer to scan things from his room.
Scanning Quality is great and super easy to set up and use.
Eric –
Excellent, basic scanner. Documents scan perfectly. Simple scanner that does the job.
qsilver232 –
Great portable scanner and great for small offices.
GC75 –
Works great for what I need. Plugs into my laptop and alows me to scan finciial documents so I
don’t have a bunch of paper files to deal with. I can search by keyword if I get filing categories mixed up. This also allows me to email scanned documents when needed.

I would highly recommend not getting this portable scanner. The concept, structure and price of the scanner are all great, and when it works it works well. I’ve purchased two of these scanners (returned the first due to the same issues) in hopes of having luck and to no avail. The scanner drivers and software install with no problems, and it will remain online until I scan a single page. The machine disconnects from my computer after ever page it scans. First one did as well. I have to leave the device unplugged for about an hour, plug it back in, then reinstall the machine to my laptop in order to scan another single piece of paper. It doesn’t make scanning calculus homework (the primary reason for purchase) a fun time. I have never had such a fiasco with a simple piece of machinery, and I intend on returning this yet again and getting a different brand of scanner. I’m happy for all the ones that work for people, but I am incredibly dissatisfied with this product.
RedDog –
Very easy set-up. Able to scan all sizes from pictures, receipts, letters to my pc.
Matthew –
I was originally hesitant on getting this because I wanted something that would be good for photos. This is amazing for photos! I had to quarantine and decided to scan all my families old photos. It did it amazingly!
dianneiest –
I’m doing a major project, scanning 25 years of photographs. This is perfect for a low cost scanner. Good quality photo scans even though this is now of a document scanner. I couldn’t afford a photo scanner that would feed in ac stack of photos but for under $100 this is perfect.
Mari –
Personal scanner is a great must have for school or work! Easy to setup and use.
Sara –
Absolutely LOVE this scanner! It scans quality images. Super easy to use and great for portable use
Putt –
This document scanner allowed me to quickly scan in family photos with a small footprint.
joni –
I purchased this scanner to scan receipts. I have two other scanners but this one is the easiest and fasted for scanning receipts. Quality images very quickly.
RandS –
Based on older versions which work great, I bought this one as a gift.
lizjoshua –
This scanner is easy to use. Scans/uploads with great quality.
Lostwell –
This little thing works really well! I have never used a portable scanner before so I had no idea what to expect. What I got was an easy to use device that takes excellent scans. I bought this mostly for pictures, but is has scanned documents, racing bibs and pictures with excellent color reproduction.
I did install the software that was recommended, but technically I could have used the built in one for My MacBook Pro, but I’m glad I used the other one. It makes it easy to add additional pages to the same document. Overall, I would totally buy this again. It can’t do two sides at the same time, but that is not a big deal considering pictures were the primary reason. I wanted this scanner.
Endicott –
I have one at work. I liked how easy it was to use so I bought one for my house.
TLP01 –
Great little scanner. This scanner takes up very little space and since I only need to scan a few single pages every month it works perfectly for my needs. Easy to set up and use.
Xena –
Love it!! Compact and works like a charm. I would definitely recommend this product.
Tyler –
Not great. The scanner was unrecognizable after falling asleep.
rushman55 –
This is very easy to use, and has a very small foot print. I had it up and running in 2 minutes. The scan quality is quite nice to.
PeterGReview –
The portable Brother scanner works perfectly and easy to use
Siomei –
So easy to use for quick scans of credit cards, ID cards, one-sided sheets. No need to drag out my bulky multipurpose all-in-one. It produces clear images and is compatible with Windows 10 and 11.
daveinllwa –
Nice little unit for the occasional uses I have. Nice scanning quality.
I would like to know how to accommodate the uncommon connector on the unit, if need be.
Mjk70 –
Great scanner. I needed Brother rep to walk me through the software process. Otherwise a great machine
Frankjh –
The scanner only scans to a 8.5 x 11 page. I had hoped for being able to put receipts together on one piece of paper.
Labraza05 –
Perfect scanner for our office. Really fast and reliable
Grosado –
Easy to use, easy to store or put it in your backpack and go.
TedH –
Works fine. Does what I expected. The software is easy enough to find on the Brother website, and I could use it on both my PC and Mac.
MaralR –
I love this little device, so convinient and easy to use.
3ric –
Needed a firmware update on another computer before I could install on my computer. So works well.
Awesome –
It’s great for normal day scanning but if you want to do duplex it doesn’t work with our software. Regular scanning is fantastic and very fast!
