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.
