Review on πŸ–¨οΈ Efficient Brother ADS-1200 Desktop Scanner: Fast, Compact, and User-Friendly for Home or On-The-Go Professionals by Ryan Selpasoria

Revainrating 3 out of 5

ADF scanner

Comparably good to my 12 year old SnapScan at a quarter the price for half its 50ppm. Reliable, high-quality, error-free, complete with all software for document management, setup of advanced functions and troubleshooting. It took >5 days to archive old returns >60 pages, 5+ credit cards and 10 receipts on different sizes of thermal paper. Japanese quality scanner from China. Pros: 25 pages per minute, measured by me, ADF for 8x11 paper, receipts and credit cards in one feed. Adjustable scan quality. OCR any document or PDF with high-fidelity searchability even at the lowest quality settings. Use after setup easy routine maintenance and cleaning scan directly to flash drives, ideal for on-site batch work, can also be accessed from a computer when the USB cable is connected to the PC at the same time, flash drive scan types are configurable special credit card scanner port dual power, power adapter and/or USB 3 or USB 2 port with power supply, error-free software and easy hardware and software installation. User-replaceable consumables: paper guides and rollers. The design is similar to my 2010 SnapsSan, the features are complete but concise. It is necessary to read the pdf manual, which is thick, not the short manual, otherwise you will not know what the functions are, such as: B. Flash drive cannot be NTFS or the standard scan is 200 dpi black and white or that WIA2 has more features than TWAIN or WIA has a paper roll; if the scanned document is not centered it may jam, more expensive scanners have 2 or 3 rollers and are more forgiving of paper placement and quality [e.g. books to prevent paper from falling excessive manuals, technical but not consumer friendly Thin plastic paper side guides, like the back of the paper, require a delicate touch or risk of breakage Card feed guide, you align them with labels

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
