How to use

Place documents in the automatic document feeder, adjust guides to fit the media, and select the desired scan settings on your PC or via the USB host interface. For best results when scanning mixed media, choose the appropriate media type and resolution in the scanner software, enable duplex if scanning double-sided documents, and use the digital imprinter or filename options to add reference data. Follow on-screen prompts from Brother ScanEssentials Lite or your chosen third-party software to save scans to network folders or local storage.

Recommendations

To maintain consistent performance, use the recommended paper types, keep the feed rollers clean, and avoid overloading the 60-sheet ADF. For fragile or very thick items, feed them individually. Regularly update scanner drivers and software to ensure compatibility and access to the latest image-processing features.
