Windows 10: Microssoft Scan quit working

About two weeks ago I set up Microsoft Scan Brother printer/scanner and iyt worked, Today, I clickewd on it an it recognized the Brother, but when I went to scan, it said no scanner attached. On the device manager, it said that the Borther was atatched as both the printer and scanner. I can still print on the Borther, and the driver check says that everything is up to date,
