The error message "[model name] cannot be found. ... (CC3-202-03031b02)" appears when scanning a document using ControlCenter3 on Windows 7 with the USB connection.

Error Screen
 

Please make sure that your Brother machine is ON and it is correctly connected to your computer by the USB cable.

 


If the Full Driver & Software Packages downloaded from the "Download" section was installed into your computer with the built-in driver already installed, the TWAIN driver was not installed. Since ControlCenter3 uses the TWAIN driver when scanning, this error occurs. Please go to Step 1 to check if the TWAIN driver is installed correctly.
 

  • The built-in driver is included with Windows 7 and installed automatically by connecting your machine to the Windows 7 computer via the USB interface. The built-in driver is also called "Inbox driver".
     
  • TWAIN driver makes the scanner compatible with any TWAIN-supporting software.
