Well - I believe that there is no barrel shape DC connector on the scanner - thus only way to power it is through the usb-c power + data.
My understanding is based on this review which clearly, IMHO, describes it as possible down side. https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/brother-ads-1800w I couldn't see any clear picture of back side of the scanner. The spec sheet doesn't mention any other power input other than usb-c either. Hope that explains it, Tomas On Tue, Nov 5, 2024, 14:06 wes <[email protected]> wrote: > wow, that is some hubris.
