9 Scanning

Scanning a document using the TWAIN driver

The Brother machine software includes a TWAIN Scanner driver for Macintosh. You can use this TWAIN Scanner driver with any applications that support TWAIN specifications.

When you scan a document, you can either use the ADF (automatic document feeder) or the Flatbed scanner glass.

Refer to the guide noted below for more information on loading the documents. uuBasic User’s Guide: Using the ADF

Note

If you want to scan from a machine on a network, choose the networked machine in the Device Selector application located in Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector or from the Model drop-down list of ControlCenter2.

Accessing the TWAIN driver

Run your Macintosh TWAIN-compliant application. The first time you use the Brother TWAIN driver, set it as 9 the default driver by choosing Select Source (or another menu name for choosing the default driver). For each document you scan after this, choose Acquire Image Data or Acquire. The scanner setup dialog box appears.

Note

The method of choosing the default driver or scanning a document may vary depending on the application you are using.
