No, your image scanner along with any other hardware that you may have does not need to be the same brand as your computer. Any scanner that you buy will come with a set of CDs that will include the software and drivers that your computer requires in order to run the scanner using your computer. Most computers now have the capability to work with almost any brand of hardware.

This question is highly subjective, as a person may have much need, or little need, for a wide format scanner. A scanner is a type of computer equipment which reads a physical image or document, and converts it into an image on a computer. A wide format scanner deals with very wide documents and images, typically larger than 12 inches.
This image scanner would need to be connected to a computer to function correctly. The scanner only has one USB port which is used to connect it to the computer. This is essential as the scanner works in conjunction with software that is installed on the PC.
The image can be scanned and saved in the computer as a graphic file. Obviously, you would need a device called a scanner (commonly, a flat-bed scanner taking A4 paper) which is linked by a USB cable to your computer. There are also printers that will also scan. There are also devices that can be drawn on using a special pen, that while drawing an image on the device, the result appears on your computer's monitor. You then save the completed image as a graphic file.
Buy a scanner, put the drawing onto it, plug it in to the computer, and follow the scanner's instructions to scan it.
Depends on what you need to do. A scanner copies an image into a computer and a camera takes a picture of something. Many all in one printers have scanners built in, some are as cheap as $50 on sale.
A scanner needs a driver which will enable you to send commands from your computer to the scanner and, of course, scan whatever you like.
If you want to configure a scanner on your computer you will need to attach your scanner to your computer using the cables supplied. Then your computer should notice that the new hardware has been turned on and guide you through the configuration process.
