Wish it worked like the ads-1500w. But it doesnt
I purchased the ads-1700w to replace the ads-1500w. It does not have some key features passed on. First, you can't send to the cloud from the device. It has to be tethered to a PC. I can't be a near a PC always to get connectivity to upload to Dropbox. Instead, I have to go through the PC program and the program did not recognize the scanner wirelessly. Second...

Easy to set up
We had this installed and running in 10 minutes.
The machine works flawlessly and has saved us loads of time by having the scanner right on the desk where it is needed.

Better than anticipated.
The scanner was very easy to set up. I was able to use after the quick set up. I am currently using the scanner via the USB, so that it is available off-line currently. However, I am looking forward to using the wireless features available with this scanner.
After comparing many scanners, I am glad I made the decision to buy this one and would highly recommend. I am a s...

NO POWER SUPPLY
Do NOT buy this scanner! The power supply is NOT included. It only comes with a dual C-charger cable, when plugged in to a computer or a wall charger it reads "Insufficient power Code 1". I tried using a power supply I already had and the unit won't power on at all. Total piece of junk. I never return things, but I'm returning this.

High quality wifi scanner for documents, photos and more!
Once I figured out how to connect it with my wifi, it was so easy to use!! Loved that I could connect directly to my Google Drive or use the USB cord to connect to my device. It is very easy to use with the color touchscreen, can scan 2 sided documents IN COLOR and do MULTIPLE pages at one time!! Highly recommend!

Read contents of box to make sure you have what you need
The scanner is a very nice size. Perfect for just putting anywhere you need it very compact. Scanning quality is as expected. The wireless connectivity was all right. You had to use a USB-C to connect it or it wouldn’t have it come with the power cord.

Compact and versatile
Setting it up was easy and it connects quickly to my Wi-Fi, which is super convenient. The scanning speed is fast, and it handles loads of pages smoothly without any jams. The quality of the scans is clear, even with a small print. I love that I can scan directly to my computer or even my phone, making everything much simpler. The touchscreen is a nice touch, too—it's r...

Compact and quick scanner
Overall a very nice scanner. It is super quick and easy to connect. I like how you can create one-touch work flow so that you can quickly get documents where they need to go! The only issue is that it doesn’t have something to catch the papers as they are scanned.

Compact, easy to set up, vibrant scan
First, this was super simple to set up! The instructions were very clear and little room for error. I was able to connect to my wifi very fast! Plus, the compact design makes it easy to move around and fit in smaller places. Then, inserting documents is even easier with adjustable bars to help fight the document perfectly. The touchscreen isn’t overly sensitive to touch...

Made my scanning life easier!
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 tha...
