Download Brother Control Center Mac



Hello! Anyone know what the latest version of the Brother Control Center for Mac is? I have tried to find this out at the Brother site and failed. I have also tried to update my Control Center, as, at the Brother site, it looks like there is a newer version than mine. (The Brother site is awful which is why I am having trouble discerning whether I have the newest version.) But it won't update. So perhaps I am wrong and I have the newest version. I have Control Center v. 2.17.10. Thanks for any info.

Most browsers will download the file into your default 'Downloads' folder and the package will automatically run. If you are prompted to Save the file, then browse to a location that will be easy to find and save the package. Once the download is complete, the installation should start automatically. Follow the onscreen instructions.

(If there is a newer version than this, can anyone give me an idea why it won't update? I've run the installer numerous times and it acts as if it is installing correctly - but nothing changes. I did successfully update my printer firmware, but that didn't change my ability to update the Control Center.)

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.

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.
