This hasn't been a high priority for me, thus the lag in responding,
but I did try cropping before scanning from the feeder, and it
didn't help.<br>

You indicated twiddling a Preferences setting, what version of
Simple-Scan are you using? I'm using 3.12.3 on Ubuntu 14.04, it
doesn't have a Document menu. <br>

<div>I have been using SimpleScan for years on my Brother
DCP7020 printer/scanner, and most documents I scan are 8.5
x 11 inches, though the scanner always scans a slightly
different default size and I always choose to Crop the
scan to "Letter" size before beginning the scan. (You can
crop after the scan, but it's much faster to have it crop
from the start.)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I recently switched to scanning some 14 inch "Legal"
documents, and was surprised when it didn't switch back to
Letter size by itself. I believe I had to twiddle the
settings under Document --> Preferences to get it back
to 8.5 x 11 again.</div>

<div>If that doesn't work for you, first I would suggest you
check on the Brother Linux support site to see if you have
the latest version of their scanner driver for your
hardware and your version of Ubuntu. I know on my scanner
the driver lags WAY behind my version of Ubuntu (since the
DCP7020 is so old) but I was able to futz around with it
and make the latest version work on Ubuntu 14.04 even
though the actual package was broken and didn't install
correctly.</div>

<div class="gmail_extra">When I'm ready to update that computer
to Ubuntu 16.04 I fully expect to have to kick and jiggle the
Brother scanner package to get it to work all over again....
and if it doesn't.... I'll have to come up with something
else. :-)</div>
