brother printer/scanner cannot upload scanned document
it was working yesterday, now I have 2 Brother printers/scanner, different model that I try to scan and upload the scan on dropbox and it fail. Does dropbox have server down or any upgrades happen in...
- 3 years ago
I resolved this issue with my Brother MFC-L3710CW unit by logging into the machine and changing the TLS setting to 1.1/1.2. (192.168.... in web browser). It works with Dropbox Brother app now. It's always work for the MS OneDrive Brother app. You will need your units password to login to the administrator side of the Brother unit. Find it on the rear of the unit by the power cord input. Hope this helps!

Hi!
I attempted Brother's suggestion now and removed everything Dropbox from my DCP-9020CDW, and set up the account again (also restarted the printer inbetween). Same result. I've also made sure that I had the latest printer firmware installed before trying this. There are no automatic updates performed on my printer.
I would also guess something server related as mentioned above (I have no facts to back it up with though, basing it on the similar issue when the printer's Scan-to-email stopped working since Office365 stopped supporting TLS 1.0 in favour of TLS 1.2 ^^; )
Tried setting up the printer to scan to my OneDrive account, and that seems to be working.

Hello matkun,
Sadly I have the same experience - deinstalled everything related to Dropbox, upgraded firmware (latest from fall of 2019), rebooted printer. Disappointingly with same error.
Have checked OneDrive, which works fine.
Any help still appreciated!

Brother support isn't helpful with this, which is very unfortunate.

So that we can confirm whether its machine specific or an environment issue
