11 Network Scanning

If you want to scan from the machine on a network, you must choose the networked machine in the Device Selector application located in Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector or from the Model pop-up menu in the main screen of ControlCenter2. If you already installed the MFL-Pro Suite Software following the network installation steps in the Quick Setup Guide then this selection should already be made.

To use the machine as a network scanner, the machine must be configured with a TCP/IP address. You can set or change the address settings from the control panel. (See Control Panel Setup in the Network User’s Guide.)

Note

For network scanning, a maximum 25 of clients can be connected to one machine on a network. For example, if 30 clients try to connect at a time, 5 clients will not be shown on the LCD.
