I have a Brother all in one MFC-7820N. What are the limits of it's auto document feeder (ADF)?

I want the scanner to automatically scan stacks of photos using it's ADF. However, I'm afraid that only regular paper should be put in the ADF because photos might burn color onto the ADF thereby damaging it; or even worse, the ADF might damage the photo itself because the photo is too thick.

In other words, can I put photos in the ADF?

Answers:
I also have a Brother MFC-5440CN, and my personal experience, is that they do not like thick paper. I would not run photos thru there, I only use my ADF for standard paper. It may work, but I myself would not recommend it. If you wanted to try, take an old photo ( one that would not matter if it got destroyed ) and try it out. The issue to consider with the MFC would be if it could handle a single picture down thru the feeder without destroying it, not if it could feed the next one.
