How to Use the Brother machine with Your DOS 
Application Software
Before working with your application software that runs on DOS, check that the  
Brother machine’s name appears in the printer selection of your application 
software. If the machine is not listed, you must install the printer driver that 
corresponds to HP LaserJet’s emulations.
The following table shows combinations of printer drivers and emulation mode. 
To get the most out of this machine, you should install an HP printer driver in 
your application software.
The best or recommended printer driver is indicated in bold.
Be sure to choose the proper printer driver in your application software.
Be sure the printing resolution is set to 600 dpi in your DOS application 
software.
What Does the Remote Printer Console Do?
The Remote Printer Console (RPC) is a utility program that can run in the DOS 
environment and comprises the following program:
Remote Printer Console Main Program
This program allows you to change various printer settings such as emulation, 
print quality, fonts and page setup from your computer screen. Since most DOS 
applications have a Printer Settings menu that overrides the settings made by the 
RPC, you may not have to use this utility program. This utility program is useful 
for application software that does not control the printer’s settings and features.

Brother Control Center Features
Auto Configuration
During the installation process the Control Center checks your system to 
determine the default applications for E-mail, word processing and graphics 
viewer/editor. For example, if you are using Outlook as your default E-mail 
application, the Control Center automatically will create a link and a scanning 
application button for Outlook.
You can change a default application by right-clicking any of the scan buttons 
in the Control Center and selecting a different application. For example, 
 you can change a scan button from MS Word   to MS Word Pad
   by changing the application that is listed for the Word Processor.

You can change the file type, destination directory and file name, as needed.

Perfect, etc.
