Is your Brother ADS-2700W scanner behaving erratically? Are you getting frequent errors with it? Does it get hang often?

If you said “yes” to any of these, chances are you in need of a driver update.

Outdated drivers can cause a variety of issues. They may even pose a security risk. Although a scanner performing below its potential doesn’t automatically mean there’s a driver issue, often this is the case. Moreover, with updating drivers being as easy as one, two, three (if you use a driver update software), there’s no reason not to give this solution a try before attempting other more complicated steps.

This brings us to the all-important question: How to update Brother ADS-2700W driver?

The short answer is that you can update it either automatically, using an advanced driver update software, or manually, via the device manager or the manufacturer’s website.

Updating a driver automatically has more pros than cons. The entire process is automatic and there’s zero risk of downloading a wrong driver or, worse, a firmware or malware along with the latest driver. In contrast, when you download software from third-party websites, there’s always a risk of that. All the same, in this post, we’ve discussed both the methods. You can pick the one you prefer the most.

Updating Brother ADS-2700 Driver Manually

• Type device manager in the Windows Search bar
• Select Device Manager in the search results
• Highlight the scanner model under Imaging Devices
• Select Action and then Properties
• You can see the driver version in the Properties dialog box; note it down
• Now open your web browser and navigate to the Brother support web page
• Look for the latest driver for your scanner model (i.e. Brother ADS-2700). Select and download it (Note: Before clicking the “download” button, make sure the selected driver is compatible with your version for Windows. This means is you are using a Win 32 computer, you should select the latest driver for Win 32 systems. In addition, make sure this driver version is different from the one you have. If it’s the same, there’s no need to download it as you already have the latest driver on your system.)
• Save the downloaded file in an appropriate location (e.g. your desktop). Once the download process is complete, double click the file and follow on-screen instructions to complete the installation process
• Restart Windows and check if your Brother scanner is now working fine
