To connect your Brother ADS-2000e scanner to your computer, use the supplied USB cable. Plug one end into the USB port on the scanner and the other end into an available USB port on your computer. Install the necessary drivers from the Brother website or the installation CD that came with the scanner.
First, ensure that the power cord is securely connected to both the scanner and a working power outlet. Check the power switch is turned on. If it still does not turn on, try using a different power outlet. If the problem persists, consider contacting Brother support for further assistance.
To resolve paper jams, open the scanner cover and gently remove any jammed paper. Be careful not to tear the paper during removal. After clearing the jam, close the scanner cover securely. Ensure that the paper guides are aligned correctly and that the paper stack is not exceeding the recommended capacity.
Blurry or distorted images can occur due to dirt or smudges on the scanner glass. Clean the glass with a soft, lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive cleaner. Ensure that the documents are placed correctly and are not wrinkled or folded. If the issue persists, check the scanner settings for resolution and adjust accordingly.
