If you want to scan from the machine on a network, you must choose the networked machine in the
Device Selector application located in Macintosh HD/Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector or
from the Model pop-up menu in the main screen of ControlCenter2. If you have already installed the MFL-
Pro Suite Software following the network installation steps in the 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. (See Control Panel Setup in the Network User’s
Guide.)
Note
For network scanning, maximum of 25 clients can be connected to one machine on a network. For
example, if 30 clients try to connect at a time, 5 clients will not be shown on the LCD.
