  6. Adjust the settings in the dialog box, if needed.

    The scanner resolution can be set to a maximum of 1200 dpi. If you want to scan at higher resolutions, use the Scanner Utility software from Brother Utilities.

    If your machine supports 2-sided scanning and you want to scan both sides of your document, select Feeder (Scan both sides) from the Source drop-down list.

  7. Click Scan.
    The machine starts scanning the document.
