File size limitation may be dependable on the email that you a re using e.g. some email only allows max of 5MB attachments.
You can set to scan to a smaller file size (higher compression) from the Embedded Web Server (EWS) of your printer.
In order to get to the EWS, key in the IP address of your printer into a web browser and go to Scan to Email settings.
I hope that helps.
