Brother DSmobile 720D

 

The Brother DSmobile 720D stands out among manual-feed portable scanners for its duplex (two-sided) scanning.

Low cost. Portable. Duplex (two-sided) scanning. Comes with capable document management software.

Although it comes with business card software, it doesn't handle business cards well.

If you need a scanner for business cards or receipts, you'll have to look elsewhere. Likewise, if you need an ADF, you should be looking at the Canon imageFormula P-215 Scan-tini Personal Document Scanner. But if what you need is a manual-fed portable...

BROTHER DS720D Document Scanner

 

I'm currently working from home and don't have much space. This scanner works really well without taking up much room. I can feed in one page after the other which makes it more convenient than using a flatbed scanner for multi-page documents. Quality...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Solid for record keeping but not for professional use

 

Ultimately we decided to return the item as we need more professional looking scans. Will be purchasing a more expensive Brother Scanner that has both duplex and a feeder to see if we get a better result. Not a huge slam on this specific model though....

- Compact/Sleek - Software does what it's supposed to do and it's pretty intuitive to use - Setup is a breeze. Took me 5 minutes to get it going and I was scanning away - Remembers where you want to file things so you don't have to start over from...

- Nearly impossible to feed the paper in such a way as to ensure a clean, straight up and down scan. About 60% of my scanned pages came out crooked. Not a big deal if you just want to keep personal records but not good for professional looking scans

Scanner works great!

 

Very simple to connect to your computer. I have a Windows 7 operating system and I was able to get it going within 10 minutes of taking it out of the box and installing the software.

Mostly Good

 

The scanner is great! Setup is easy. PaperPort is great! although the scan settings dialog could be a little more user friendly. I had high hopes for BR-Receipts. The software is OK, but not user friendly at all. It needs a whole lot more work, And...
