Scanning

Using the Scan key (For USB cable users)

Note

If you use Scan on a network, see Using the Scan key on page 201.

You can use (Scan) 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 (Scan) 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 (Scan) follows the configuration on the ControlCenter2 tab. (See SCAN on page 183.) For details about how to configure the

ControlCenter2 buttons to launch the application of your choice using (Scan), see Using ControlCenter2 on page 181.

Note

•If you want to scan a document using the duplex scanning feature, you need to put the document in the ADF and then choose 2sided (L)edge or 2sided (S)edge depending on your document layout.
