If you use the Scan key on a network, please refer to Using the Scan key on page 6-3.
You can use the Scan key on the control panel to scan
documents into your word processing, graphics or
E-mail applications or your computer folder. The
advantage of using Scan is that you avoid the mouse
clicks required to scan from your computer.

■ Before you can use the Scan key on the control panel, you must have connected the machine to your
Windows
® based computer and loaded the appropriate Brother Drivers for your version of Windows ® .

using the Scan key, go to the appropriate chapter:
• For Windows ® , see Using ControlCenter2.0 (For Windows ® ) on page 3-1.
• For Macintosh ® , see Using ControlCenter2.0 (For Mac OS ® X 10.2.4 or greater) on page 7-24.
