IRIS Portable Wireless Scanner
IRIScan Anywhere 6 WiFi — Portable Wireless Document Scanner
A battery-powered pocket scanner that works away from a computer, over Wi-Fi. The IRIScan Anywhere 6 WiFi feeds one sheet at a time and scans it in about 4 seconds, up to 15 pages a minute, from A8 up to A4 or letter size, and saves to JPEG, TIFF or PDF. It charges over USB-C, runs about 60 scans on a charge with Wi-Fi switched on, and is rated for a working life of 20,000 scans and up to 500 pages a day, making it a scanner you can use on the road rather than only at a desk.

Need-to-Know
The Anywhere 6 WiFi is IRIS's wireless simplex scanner; its Duplex sibling adds two-sided scanning, and the Express 4 / Executive 4 trade Wi-Fi for a simpler USB-only connection.
- This is a single-sheet scanner, not an automatic document feeder — pages are fed in one at a time, so it is not built for large unattended batches.
- Wi-Fi is needed for wireless scanning and for the initial software setup, which also requires an internet connection to download.
- Battery life is rated at about 60 scans on a charge with Wi-Fi switched on; heavier daily use will need more frequent charging over its USB-C cable.
- For a version that scans both sides of a page in one pass, see the IRIScan Anywhere 6 WiFi Duplex in this range.
