Brother Utilities App Mac

admin

I have a MFC-8660DN multi-function printer. There's a piece of software called the Brother Control Center that lets you initiate scans from your desktop and route the scan to a specific application. To get it..

  1. Visit this Brother site.
  2. Choose 'USA'
  3. Choose your model number (MFC-8660DN)
  4. Choose 'United States'
  5. Choose 'Drivers' then 'Mac OS X (10.5)' then 'English'
  6. Then choose the 'Scanner Driver' and download it, then install.
  7. You'll have to restart your computer and a dialogue will come up. You can have the printer associated by name or IP address. I chose IP address. Then I added a name of my computer so that you can use the printer interface to send things to a particular computer.

Cpu temp mac app. Avoid the Apple Brother Printer Update coming via Software Update! My HL-2030 and HL-2035 didn't print anymore with the same symptoms other reviewers reported here. Solution is going to the Brother website (Brother Solutions Center) and download the driver from there. Install on your Mac and it should work again. : For machines that support Mac OS X 10.10: Brother iPrint&Scan is not available in the App Store for Mac OS X 10.10. Instead, you may download the iPrint&Scan app from the Brother website.

Update - A few weeks later I started having trouble accessing the scanning capabilities from the Mac. I spoke with Brother Support and they took me thru the following re-installation steps, which solved the problem.

  1. Delete the 'Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/Library/Preferences/Brother' folder.
  2. Delete the 'Library/Image Capture/TWAIN Data Sources/Brother TWAIN.ds' file.
  3. Delete the 'Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/ControlCenter' and 'Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector' folders.
  4. Restart computer.
  5. Empty your trash.
  6. Re-install the Control Center following the steps above.
