I'm using Mac OS X 10.6.x. The network scanning feature does not work when pressing the scan key on the control panel of my Brother machine.
Step 1. Verify that the ControlCenter2 is running, and that the machine is registered for the scan function following the steps below:
-
Open the ControlCenter2.
To open ControlCenter2 :
If you see the
icon in the menu bar, click the icon and choose Open.
If you do not see the icon in the menu bar, click Macintosh HD => Applications => Brother => ControlCenter.app or Macintosh HD => Library => Printers => Brother => Utilities => ControlCenter => ControlCenter.app. The
icon will be in the menu bar. Click the icon and choose Open.
-
Click the drop down tab next to the model and choose Other.
-
Verify that there is a check mark next to "Register your computer with the "Scan To" function at the machine" and press OK.
