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.
