Using the Scan key

(For USB cable users) 9
Note
If you use the Scan key on a network, see Using the Scan key on page 181.
You can use the (Scan) key on the control panel to scan documents directly into your word processing,
graphics or E-mail applications or to a folder on your Macintosh®.
Before you can use the (Scan) key on the control panel, you have to install the Brother MFL-Pro
Software Suite and connect the machine to your Macintosh®. If you installed the MFL-Pro Suite from the
included CD-ROM, then the correct drivers and ControlCenter2 are installed. Scanning by the (Scan)
key follows the configuration on the Device Button tab. (See SCAN on page 162.) For details about how to
configure the ControlCenter2 buttons to launch the application of your choice using the (Scan) key,
see Using ControlCenter2 on page 160.
