Compact Brother DS-640 Mobile Document Scanner - Model DS640

Dee: Perfect scanner for pictures, documents, etc It is compact, I can stick it in my laptop case and take it with me when needed. It will scan single or multi page documents. It will scan into PDF, jpeg and other formats as needed with just the click of the mouse. I use it a lot.

Carol: This works and is very portable, however, some receipts won't feed and there was not an adequate users manual or instructions. I struggled to see what this Brother DS-640 was capable of doing and how to use it. As usual, I had to go to youtube for customers videos. Why couldn't Brother have included some simple and basic instructions? Over all I think it is a good purchase, but limited on use.

J J: My large flat-bed scanner finally died. I was at a health clinic and noticed they had this in their office. I noticed it was a Brother brand, so came home and when to Amazon. 2 days later I had this scanner connector. It works great and the scan is so clear it was unbelievable. easy to install and use.

nikkolausnikkolaus: So, let's start this off by saying one this -- Yes! The DS-640 is a great scanner... HOWEVER.. It does have some issues that bring it down a peg or two..

I'll start this off by highlighting the positives --
It's portable. It's easy to use. It's lightweight.

On the downside --
It's infuriating after scanning only a few documents that you're told "OH NO! We're out of memory!" .. The first time it happened I stared at the message on-screen and thought to myself.. How the heck can it be out of memory when I have 64 GB of high-speed RAM in the computer... Then I remembered that the chips inside these scanners have temporary memory built-in... but then the kicker... ...buuut I only scanned TWO PAGES... They were 3 color (black, blue, red) documents and standard paper size. It's not like it was a full-size poster in crisp detail at maximum resolution, bitrate, with edits... This was a major failure of the design, and was actually my first experience with the scanner, which as I don't need to mention, is NOT GOOD! A terrible look for the BRAND, as this was my first ownership of their brand's product, and not good for the future of this little new device sitting on my...

Steve Alcorn: Compared to the Epson I used to have, this thing is great. Very easy to use and good quality. Reliable feed. Although there's no bulk sheet feeder, it does have a continuous mode. It's work exploring all the options in the options menu. Auto sizing works great.

My only issue is that once I upgraded to MacOS Sonoma I have to reset the Mac for each new session, as it doesn't reconnect after it powers down. No doubt this will be fixed with an update by either Brother or Apple.

Joanne: It is lightweight and portable. Easy to scan documents with good outcomes. It does shut off if not used for a time. This is no big deal. I do not like that it shuts down stating memory is full. The only help from Brother was to decrease the resolution. I was afraid to do so as I wanted the pics I was scanning to be clear. I waited a while and then restarted the device and it worked great.
