The Brother Control Centre is a software utility that pops up on the PC screen whenever paper is
placed in the Automatic Document Feeder. This allows you to access the most frequently used
scanning applications only with a few mouse clicks. Using the Control Centre eliminates the need
to manually launch the specific applications.
If you want to scan the document from the glass platen, please use Scan keys on the control panel
(see Using the Control Panel Keys, page 84) or TWAIN driver (see Scanning a Document into your
PC, page 98).
The Brother Control Centre provides three categories of functions:
