Brother MFL-Pro Control Center

If you are using Windows® 2000 Professional, we recommend that you are logged on as an administrator.

The Brother Control Center is a software utility that pops up on the PC screen whenever paper is placed in the automatic document feeder. This allows you to quite easily, with very few mouse clicks, access the most frequently used scanning applications. Using the Control Center eliminates the need to manually launch the specific applications.

The Brother Control Center provides three categories of functions:

1Scan directly to a file, E-mail, word processor or graphic application of choice

2Copy operations

3PC Faxing using the Brother MFL Pro PC Fax software MFC-3200C
