Scanning a Document

TWAIN COMPLIANT

The Brother Multi-Function Link Pro software includes a TWAIN compliant scanner driver. TWAIN drivers meet the standard universal protocol for communicating between scanners and software applications. This means that not only can you scan images directly into the PaperPort viewer that Brother included with your MFC, but you can also scan images directly into hundreds of other software applications that support TWAIN scanning. These applications include popular programs like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe PageMaker, CorelDraw and many more.

To choose Brother Multi-Function Link Pro as your scanner driver, select it under the Select scanner— or—Select source option in your software.

Accessing the Scanner

From the PaperPortTM window, select the Scan or Twain button or from the File drop-down menu choose Acquire. Multi-Function Link Pro’s Twain dialog box will appear:
