Outstanding scanner! But you might need a micro B USB cable…
This is a slick little scanner that works quickly and very well. If you’re planning to connect it to your computer via USB you’ll need a micro B cable, as it does not include one. Initially I was bummed about this because though I planned to use the scanner with Wifi, when I went to setup the scan-to-network share feature, the scanner’s menu informed me I had to set that up from my computer. So I assumed I would have to plug it in and went searching for a cable and for the right software on Brother’s web site.Thankfully, you don’t actually have to plug it into a computer to set it up and you don’t need to download any Brother software either, depending on your use case. You can setup wifi directly from the scanner’s touchscreen, then use any web browser from a computer on the same network to access the scanner over Wifi to complete setup of more advanced features without a USB connection. I had to Google the default password for the scanner’s web interface (turns out it’s printed on a label on the bottom of each scanner), but once I had that I was able to login and configure the various options.Now all I have to do is drop a sheet of paper (or up to 20) directly into the automatic document feeder on the scanner and it automatically performs a duplex scan, skips blank pages, converts it to a PDF and drops it on a network share without pressing a single button.Once it’s all setup it is super fast and very easy to use. I highly recommend this. It’s worth the extra money to get a true Wifi scanner if you want wireless scanning to network storage.

Swift, Accurate, and User-Friendly: A Must-Have for Professionals On-The-Go!
I purchased the Brother Wireless Document Scanner, ADS-1700W, for my home office and it’s proven to be an invaluable asset. Right from the unboxing, the setup was intuitive and straightforward, making it operational within minutes.The scanner boasts fast scan speeds which are crucial when dealing with a heap of documents. The wireless feature is a major plus, allowing me to scan documents directly to my mobile device or cloud storage, making it ideal for on-the-go professionals. The quality of scans is impressive with clear, sharp images and text.I appreciate the touchscreen LCD which simplifies the operation, and the automatic document feeder which can handle 20 pages is a time-saver. The compact design of the scanner is a space-saver, yet it does not compromise on the functionality.I also found the dual paper trays and duplex printing features quite useful for different scanning needs. The scanner has a variety of connectivity options which is great for a modern workspace.The only downside I experienced was the initial connectivity setup with my network, but once that was resolved, it’s been smooth sailing.The Brother ADS-1700W is a reliable, efficient, and user-friendly scanner that meets the demands of a busy professional. The price is reasonable considering the features and the brand reputation. I would highly recommend this scanner to anyone in need of a high-quality, convenient scanning solution.

OK machine, way subpar software
This machine is ok. I’ve been using it for over a year. It’s fast when scanning 300dpi and handles slightly bent or creased paper well without jamming.The software is terrible. It is bloated and convoluted. It consumes over 1GB of storage. While storage isn’t scarce these days, that’s a lot of resources for an application that scans documents. I have not been able to get the “scan to PC” to work on multiple Windows machines. The driver installation is either flaky or broken causing the software not to work as designed. There is no scanning capabilities from the web console, one must use the Brother iPrint&Scan software. While the TWAIN drivers do exist, they don’t work very well with Adobe Acrobat Pro (that is installed with Creative Cloud), notably no two-sided scanning.The sheet feeder often allows the page(s) to skew, so all of my scans are angled. I had to rig up something to align the pages so this would be reduced.Some downsides with the machine are no Wi-Fi 5GHz, it only supports 2.4GHz WPA2. It won’t connected to SMB v3 network shares, so I have to downgrade my network storage devices to support version 1 or 2, exposing my network to known vulnerabilities with these older SMB versions. There is no paper tray to catch output sheets, I had to build something to keep papers from flying out of the machine onto the floor. Sometimes the feeder mechanism allows pages to become misaligned and skewed.Occasionally, the software completely loses track of the scanner. I can reach the IP, but the software can’t.I’m ready to toss this scanner. I would not recommend it to anyone. The painful software, the paper feeder system, and lack of output tray is why.
