It could be the doc feeder separation system problem since it is used for many years. You can try to observe whether there are 2 sheets pull in together at the same time when you scan a stack of doc from it. If this is the case, you can try to clean the rollers as per the following youtube video clip (from 2:00 to 4:00)
