Using the Printer Setting Tool, you can specify the device settings from a Mac.

Using the Printer Setting Tool for Mac

1. Connect the printer you want to configure to the computer.
2. Click [Go] - [Applications] - [Brother] - [Printer Setting Tool] - [Printer Setting Tool.app].
   The [Printer Setting Tool] window appears.
   
   


3. Check that the printer you want to configure appears next to [Printer].  If a different printer appears, select the printer you want from the drop-down list.

   If only one printer is connected, it is unnecessary to make a selection because only that printer will appear.

4. Select a setting tab, and then specify or change the settings.
5. Click [Apply Settings to the Printer] in the setting tab to apply the settings to the printer.
6. Click [Exit] to finish specifying settings.
