Review on πŸ“Έ Brother ADS-1250W Wireless Portable Compact Desktop Scanner - Fast, Easy-to-Use Scanning for Home, Home Office, or Mobile Professionals by Matt Watkins

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Print well, though. on scanners and accessories

The Wi-Fi printing feature draws me in while shopping and then turns out to be a nightmare for me. There is only one power code next to the machine. There is no Micro USB code, one is USB 2.0 head and the other is USB 3.0. You will need to purchase your own if you decide to print using this method. And then I spent over 2 hours waiting and talking to my brother's support team to help me set up Wi-Fi printing. This is a very unpleasant experience, although the problem is actually solved. This shows that this is not an easy install as you would initially expect. Then the biggest problem is that you cannot use the internet on your laptop and at the same time use Wi-Fi for printing. You need to use the internet on your device connected laptop and print the document via Wi-Fi first and then switch to your own Wi-Fi internet to get online and email the document. So you can't use Wi-Fi on the same laptop while printing a document and surfing the web together. I don't know if this is a standard or if it's unique to this machine. In any case, I can return this task if I find a better one.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Updates
