Currently have a Scanjet 4850 & while it still works well enough, it's noisy and slow and doesn't have great support on win10. I still use it fairly often, so would like to replace it.

I'd like to replace it with something wireless, as it takes up a decent amount of room and not having it tethered to the pc, would make it far easier to put it somewhere out the way.

I can't seem to find any though that are decently priced. Document scanners, tons of wireless ones at a whole range of prices. Flatbeds, only wireless ones I've seen so far are business/professional range ones at £200+ with a load of features I don't need.

So any suggestions for a decently priced one?

Thanks.
 
Brother do a crazy compact duplexing wireless scanner for about £170, it's not much wider than an A4 page and only about 10cm deep, cracking bit of kit. These aren't cheap but if space is a concern (as it is with me) I've not seen much in this small a package with the feature set.

It's called the Brother DS920DW.

You can get the DS720D for about £130 without wireless.

Both are pretty fast and if you regularly scan double sided documents then duplex is a godsend..

Bundled software only does picture PDF as far as I'm aware, but there's loads of third party software out here if you need proper Scanning tools.
