Scanning a document using the TWAIN driver

8

The Brother machine software includes a TWAIN Scanner driver for Macintosh. You can use this Macintosh
TWAIN Scanner driver with any applications that support TWAIN specifications.
When you scan a document, you can use the ADF (automatic document feeder). For more information on
loading the documents, see Basic User’s Guide: Loading documents.
Run your Macintosh TWAIN-compliant application. The first time you use the Brother TWAIN driver, set it as
the default driver by choosing Select Source. For each document you scan after this, choose Acquire Image
Data
or Acquire. The menu option that lets you choose the Scanner driver may vary depending on your
application.

Note

The method of choosing the default driver or scanning a document may vary depending on the application
you are using.
