The scanned data is attached to an E-mail application which I do not use regularly, or the error message indicating no default E-mail application is registered on my computer (CC4-121-[error code]) when trying to scan a document directly into my E-mail application using ControlCenter4 or the SCAN key on my Brother machine.

The Scan to E-mail feature allows you to scan a document directly into your E-mail application, but your E-mail application needs to be configured as the default E-mail application. Please follow the steps below.
