Re: Brother MFC 4600 in Windows XP Enviro



Brother don't support this unit under XP:
http://www.brother.com/E-ftp/windowsxp/us.html

You might be able to get it to work using some of the other MFC drivers....
try the closest number to 4600 that you can find.

If not, it's time to think about something newer, with a USB connection.
The old LPT MFC Brother units were designed for WIndows 3.1 and 95. They've
had their day.
