documents.

2. Resolution

Select a scanning resolution from the Resolution drop-down list. Higher resolutions produce a finer scanned image but consume more memory and increase transfer time.

3. Scan Type

Select from a range of scan color depths.

Resolution Scan Type

100 x 100 dpi 24bit Color

200 x 200 dpi Black & White

• Auto

• Black & White

Use for text or line art images.

• Gray (Error Diffusion)

Use for photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated grayscale images without using true gray dots. Black dots are put in a specific pattern to give a gray appearance.)

• True Gray

Use for photographic images or graphics. This mode is more accurate because it uses up to 256 shades of gray.

• 24bit Color

Use to create an image with the most accurate color reproduction. This mode uses up to 16.8 million colors to scan the image, but it requires the most memory and has the longest transfer time.

4. Document Size

- Diffusion Adjustment -Gray

This function adjusts the brightness and contrast to create gray images.

Only available when the Scan Type is Gray (Error Diffusion).

Brightness

Related Models: DSmobile DS-940DW

Before attempting to configure a wireless network, confirm the following:

• Before configuring wireless settings, you must know your Network Name (SSID) and Network Key (Password).

If you do not know this security information, contact the router manufacturer, your system administrator, or your Internet provider.

• To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document scanning, place the Brother machine as close to the wireless access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two devices and interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and applications.

Supported Security Certificate Features

Related Models: DSmobile DS-940DW

Your Brother machine supports the use of multiple security certificates, which allows secure management, authentication, and communication with the machine.

The machine can use SSL/TLS communication and supports the following types of security certificates:

• Pre-installed certificate

Your machine has a pre-installed self-signed certificate. This certificate enables you to use SSL/TLS communication without creating or installing a different certificate.

The pre-installed self-signed certificate protects your communication up to a certain level. We recommend using a certificate that is issued by a trusted organization for better security.

• Self-signed certificate

This machine issues its own certificate. Using this certificate, you can easily use the SSL/TLS communication without creating or installing a different certificate from a CA.

• Certificate from a Certificate Authority (CA)

There are two methods for installing a certificate from a CA. If you already have a certificate from a CA or if you want to use a certificate from an external trusted CA:

- When using a Certificate Signing Request (CSR) from this machine.

- When importing a certificate and a private key.

• Certificate Authority (CA) Certificate

To use a CA certificate that identifies the CA and owns its private key, you must import that CA certificate from the CA before configuring the security features of the Network.

• If you are going to use SSL/TLS communication, we recommend contacting your system administrator first.

• When you reset the machine back to its default factory settings, the certificate and the private key that are installed will be deleted. If you want to keep the same certificate and the private key after resetting the machine, export them before resetting, and then reinstall them.

The multiple certificate feature allows you to use Web Based Management to manage each certificate installed on your machine. In Web Based Management, navigate to the CA Certificate screen to view certificate content, delete, or export your certificates.

You can store up to seven CA certificates to use SSL.

We recommend storing one certificate fewer than allowed, reserving an empty spot in case of certificate expiration. When a certificate expires, import a new certificate into the reserved spot, and then delete the expired certificate. This ensures that you avoid configuration failure.
