Printer Setting Tool (for Mac Computers) 3
Using the "Printer Setting Tool", you can specify the printer's communication settings and device settings
from a Mac. Not only can you change the device settings for one printer, but you can also apply the same
settings to multiple printers.
The "Printer Setting Tool" is installed at the same time as other software such as the printer driver. For
more information, see Installing the Printer Driver and Software (When Using a Windows
®
PC or Mac)
on page 24.
The "Printer Setting Tool" is available only with compatible Brother printers.
Before Using the Printer Setting Tool 3
Make sure the AC adapter is connected to an AC power outlet, the car adapter is connected to a DC power
outlet, or the fully-charged battery is installed.
Make sure the printer driver has been installed and is functional.
Connect this printer to a computer with a USB cable. With this tool, settings cannot be specified using
Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
Using the Printer Setting Tool (for Mac Computers) 3
a Connect the printer you want to configure to the computer.
b Click [Macintosh HD] - [Applications] - [Brother] - [Printer Setting Tool] - [Printer Setting Tool.app].
The [Printer Setting Tool] window appears.
c Check that the printer you want to configure appears beside [Printer]. If a different printer appears,

f Click [Exit] to finish specifying settings.
Use the "Printer Setting Tool" to configure the printer only when the printer is in standby. The printer may
malfunction if you attempt to configure it while it is handling a job.
