Where is the USB port on the machine?

NOTE: Illustrations shown below are from a representative product and may differ from your Brother machine.


  1. Using both hands, use the plastic tabs on both sides of the machine to lift the scanner cover until it locks securely into the open position.

  3. Carefully route the USB cable through the trench and out the back of the machine as shown below and connect it to your computer.

    • DO NOT connect the machine to a USB port on a keyboard or a non-powered USB hub. Brother recommends that you connect the machine directly to your computer.
    • Make sure that the cable does not restrict the cover from closing, or an error may occur.
