For DCP-130C, MFC-240C, MFC-440CN,

Lift the scanner cover until it locks securely into 
the open position.

Connect the USB cable to the USB socket 
marked with a 

 symbol. You will find the 

USB socket inside the machine on the right as 
shown below.

Carefully guide the USB cable into the trench 
as shown below, following the trench around 
and toward the back of the machine. Then, 
connect the cable to your computer.

Improper Setup

• DO NOT connect the machine to a USB port on 

a keyboard or a non-powered USB hub. 
Brother recommends that you connect the 
machine directly to your computer.

• Make sure that the cable does not restrict the 

cover from closing, or an error may occur.

• Make sure you use a USB 2.0 cable that is no 

longer than 6 feet long (2 meters).

4

Lift the scanner cover to release the lock ( ).
Gently push the scanner cover support 
down ( ) and close the scanner cover ( ).

5

Turn on the machine by connecting the power 
cord.

The installation of the Brother drivers will 
automatically start. The installation screens 
appear one after another. 

Please wait, it will 

take a few seconds for all the screens to 
appear.

Improper Setup

DO NOT try to cancel any of the screens during 
this installation.
