Review: 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.
Review: 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this scan photo's? i have a lot of photo's to scan. if so, is it 600 dpi? does it crop? so many questions**
A: It has 600dpi option. However, there are scanners that have 1200dpi out there, 600dpi is pretty good but not perfect, but it could be good enough for you. 
There is an auto-cropping functionality, so it will crop the scan to just the size of the image. However, there could be situations that this feature doesn't work super well such as cropping too much or too less when the photo is a little bit tilted. Overall, if you have a LOT of photos, this can be used for quick backing up purpose.

**Q: Is the difference between the ads-1700w and ads1250w the touch screen?**
A: The major difference in the two scanners is the display, which will give you options to scan directly to different destinations without a computer.

**Q: Does the software for this work with Catalina (is it 64-bit)?**
A: The Brother ADS-1700W software is compliant with Macintosh 10.15 Catalina.

**Q: How many sheets can you load at one time? Can you load various size paper at one time?**
A: You can load up to 20 sheets into the feeder. You can also load different size sheets.

### ⭐ Very difficult to setup as a standalone scanner
*by A***S on January 8, 2026*

The Brother ADS-1800W wireless desktop scanner comes with the scanner, a USB/C to USB/C cable, and a quick setup guide book only. It does not come with the A/C wall adapter. That must be purchased separately and the prices I've seen are pretty high for a simple adapter (~$40 US). I've also noticed that there are no specification for the barrel and pin size. The only spec I've found is 5V 1A. However, it can be powered by the USB/C cable included. I have a Brother ADS-1500W standalone and I needed another scanner, so I thought the ADS-1800W would work as well as the 1500, but so far, I've not been able to setup all the features on the ADS-1800W. I have it setup on my LAN, but when I try to use the Apps or Web features I get the error "Connection Error 07" with the message "Connection failed to Server. Wrong Date & Time". The DHCP server (Amazon eero router) has setup the IP address, and I've set the date and time on the scanner using SNTP (defaults to sntp.brother.com as primary, I added pool.ntp.org as secondary) although the eero should be able to be the SNTP server. I've tried to setup the scanner to use my NAS server to store scans on the file share there, but so far it has not been able to connect like the 1500W scanner. So far the scan quality has been adequate, but should get better once I get the other capabilities to work. The durability and design is very similar to the old 1500 so I expect it will last a while as the 1500 has lasted well past 11 years. I do have to say that the support on the brother website leaves a lot to be desired. I've not been able to find a way to find good information on the setup from the website. I think Brother needs to work on their setup and documentation. If I have trouble (considering my background), I can't imagine a typical home user or office user setting this up on their own. (added 1/9/2026) Well, I had to return the scanner today. I talked with Brother customer support and according to customer support most of the features (like scanning to the cloud) require the scanner to be connected to a Windows PC or Mac. There is a surprising lack of adequate documentation on the scanner. I was never able to resolve the error 07 problem, even after connecting it to a Windows 11 PC. I was able to scan to Dropbox, but it can't do it in standalone mode like the ADS-1500W. I was also not able to get the network to connect to my NAS filesystem, so I couldn't scan to a network filesystem either. I was able to directly connect to the scanner from my Android smartphone and scan to the phone after installing the Brother Mobile App. The lack of an A/C adapter is more of an irritation for the customer. Yes, you can power it by connecting it to a USB-C port on a PC or Mac or a Power Block with a USB-C connection, but having an A/C adapter would alleviate the problem of using up the USB-C port for power. I also had trouble finding a seller that had the A/C adapter in stock (it was hard to find on the Brother website also) plus it's hard to justify spending $35-40 for a 5V-1A adapter that should have been included in the box. I just couldn't justify spending this amount of money for a scanner that didn't satisfy the requirement to be able to run without being connected to a PC or Mac and the ability to upload scans to either a cloud service or a network filesystem without being connected to a PC or Mac. I think if Brother fixed these problems, it would be a good scanner. Until then I'll stick with my old ADS-1500W (even though it's no longer supported) until I find a scanner that works.
