Printing and scanning between an Android device and a Brother machine
Brother iPrint&Scan is a free app for moving documents between an Android device and a Brother printer or all-in-one machine. It works over a local wireless network, so the phone and the Brother machine need to be on the same network. The developer's summary says it is meant for printing and scanning photos, documents and webpages.
The listing describes printing from the phone and scanning to it, and it names the Brother printers and all-in-ones it supports as models listed on the company's local website. Anyone with a compatible Brother machine on their home or office network is the intended user.
Printing photos, documents and webpages from a phone
Printing from the app sends photos, documents and webpages from the Android device to the Brother machine. The listing does not describe a file-type list beyond these three kinds of content.
Scanning works the other way. A scan made on a Brother all-in-one is delivered to the Android device through the app.
Faxing, copying and the edit function
The listing adds fax sending to the app, with a fax preview to check the page before it goes out. A copy preview is listed alongside it, so the page can be checked before a copy is made.
The developer also names an edit function among the newer additions. The listing does not say what editing covers.
Checking machine status from the phone
The app includes a machine status function, which the listing presents as a way to see the state of the Brother machine from the Android device. The listing gives no detail on what status information is shown.
Which features work depends on the model. The developer points users to the supported model list on its local Brother website for the full set.
What's new
You can continue to use the print function via the sharing feature as before.
