    Why does my Brother Scanner pause between each page when scanning?
    • N
      ndavisSep 13, 2025
      If your Brother Scanner pauses for about 3 seconds between each page when scanning, the machine has entered Motor Save mode. If you scan continuously, the internal temperature of the machine may increase, causing the machine to enter Motor Save mode. This is normal and you may continue to scan.

    What to do if my Brother Scanner says 'Document Jam/ Too long'?
    • K
      Kristin AtkinsonAug 25, 2025
      If your Brother Scanner is experiencing document jams or indicating the document is too long: * First, clear the document jam. * Adjust the Paper Guides to fit the width of the document. When Scan Size is set to Auto and you are scanning a document that contains multiple page sizes, insert narrow pages straight and as close to the center of the machine as possible. If the document does not feed straight, use Continuous Scanning. * Confirm your settings are suitable for your document. * Clean the Pick Up Roller and Reverse Roller to remove any accumulated paper dust.

      If you cannot scan a thick card successfully with your Brother Scanner, it is because card materials and environment are not suitable. Load your card sideways. Scan using the following settings: * Plastic card mode: Off * Resolution: 600 dpi * Document Size: Auto * Multifeed detection: Off

    Why can't I scan a long document on my Brother ImageCenter ADS-2800W?
    • S
      Sally FisherSep 7, 2025
      If you cannot scan a long document with your Brother Scanner, it is because Long Paper is not selected for the document size. Select Long Paper for the document size. If you cannot select Long Paper, when scanning from the machine’s Control Panel, set Skip Blank Page to Off and set Scan Type to an option other than Auto. Then, you can select Long Paper for the document size.

    Why do TWAIN or WIA errors appear when starting to scan on Brother ImageCenter ADS-2800W (Windows®)?
    • K
      Kenneth MartinezSep 23, 2025
      If TWAIN or WIA errors appear when starting to scan on your Brother Scanner (Windows®), it is because the TWAIN or WIA driver has not been chosen as the primary source in your scanning application. Make sure the Brother TWAIN or WIA driver is chosen as the primary source in your scanning application.

    What to do for Brother ImageCenter ADS-2800W Scanner if scan error due to length, reduce length?
    • N
      Nathaniel GarciaAug 31, 2025
      If your Brother Scanner shows a scan error due to length, it means the scanned documents exceed the maximum length. Decrease the scanner resolution because the maximum length that can be scanned varies depending on the resolution.
