Dear folks

I have got Brother MFC-9330CDW trying to change "Destination File Path" for a scan document / picture from its default location to Desktop.

What I did via Brother Control Center 4 --> Device Settings --> Device Scan Settings,,,,,then I changed paths for Image OCR, Email and File. as can be seen in the snapshot below

Even if I tried vai Brother Control Center 4 --> Scan--> Image / OCR / Email / File,,,,,change paths for each one

The changes won't happen permanently, it keeps reverting to its default path.

Am I missing something ? Is there an alternative way of doing that ?

Thanks

I don’t know much about the workings of a Brother printer but, try the same thing from Devices & Printers and then saving your selected destinations from there..

@zillah, go to Device & Printers and right click on your Brother printer and access printer properties there and can change the options and then click apply..

@zillah, OK if it’s not available there to you in your printers Properties, do you have a scanner Icon just above the printers in this same window.

@zillah that’s a bit of a strange one ?

Your printer appears and the Fax but no Scanner, try using the scanner mode on your printer as if you were going to scan a sheet (Make it active) first and then check back to the Devices & printer to see if it appears there.

Most scanners have a default save position as your does but as far as I know they all can to changed to your own personal location, is it possible that your missing a step somewhere ?
