Pro Software
Introduction
This chapter outlines the basics of the Brother software, so you can get
started using the Multi-Function Link
®
Pro software. Detailed installation
and setup instructions are in the On-Line Documentation section of the
Brother CD-ROM 1 that is included with your MFC.
Check the online README.WRI file in the root
directory of the CD-ROM 1 for last-minute
important information and troubleshooting tips
that were not included in the On-Line
Documentation.
Multi-Function Link
®
Pro software for your MFC includes PaperPort
®
for
Brother and TextBridge
®
. (See Chapter 16, Using PaperPort
®
and
Scan Soft™ TextBridge
®
.)
Software by:
Brother Resource Manager
The Brother Resource Manager application must be running for you to use
your MFC with your Windows
®
computer. Multi-Function Link Pro
software and the MFL Pro Printer Driver automatically load the Resource
Manager, as needed. The Resource Manager allows the single bi-
directional Parallel port on the MFC to simulate a Communications port
for faxing and scanning and to simulate a Parallel port for Windows
®
GDI
printing. The MFC also can use Epson LQ-510, LQ-850 and LQ-2550
printer emulation, which do not require the Resource Manager.
