Selector application located in Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector or from
the Model drop-down list in the main screen of ControlCenter2. If you have already installed the MFL-Pro
Suite Software following the network installation steps (uu 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. uu Network User's Guide: Control Panel Setup

the "Scan To" functions at the machine. Then enter the name you want to be displayed on the
machine's LCD for your Macintosh. You can use up to 15 characters.
