Will the Brother ADS-3100 work?

Yes. Going by Brother's own pages, it can capture today with scan to cloud and a TWAIN driver.

A compact USB desktop scanner for small and home offices with moderate scanning needs.

Easiest path to one place

Scan to one cloud folder

Point every scan at a single cloud folder so they collect in one place. The scan-to-cloud row below says whether a computer or add-on is involved.

How it can capture

  • eSCL / AirScan

    Check with us

    Driverless network scanning. Apple calls it AirScan, part of AirPrint, and Mopria Scan uses it too. Nothing to install on the computer.

    Not confirmed on Brother's pages. Check with us

  • TWAIN Direct

    Check with us

    The newer, driverless TWAIN. Apps reach the scanner over the network with nothing to install.

  • Network or Wi-Fi

    No

    Connects to your network on its own, so it does not have to stay plugged into one computer.

    No. It only connects to a computer with a USB cable.[1]

  • Scan to email

    Check with us

    Press a button on the device and the pages arrive in an inbox.

  • Scan to cloud

    Yes

    The device, or the maker's own software or service, sends pages to cloud storage.

    Yes, but only through the free Brother iPrint&Scan app on a computer. The scanner can't send to the cloud by itself.[1]

  • TWAIN driver (classic)

    Yes

    The long-standing way to scan. A driver installed on a computer lets scanning apps run the scanner, usually over a USB cable.

    Yes. Scanning programs on your computer can use it through its TWAIN driver. It connects with a USB cable.[1]

Works with: Windows, macOS, Linux
