Brother Resource Manager
The Brother Resource Manager application must be running for you to use
your Brother machine 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 Brother machine to simulate a
Communications port for faxing and scanning and to simulate a Parallel
port for Windows
®
GDI printing. The software included with your Brother
machine consists of two parts, the Multi-Function Link
®
Pro and
PaperPort
