I have a MFC-8660DN multi-function printer. There's a piece of software called the Brother Control Center that lets you initiate scans from your desktop and route the scan to a specific application. To get it.

I have tried for weeks to get my Brother printer to work on windows 10.I have done everthing advised by the Brother helpline to no avail,they did tell me that the Brother control center will not work on 10,not compatible.Today I uninstalled the printer,turned it off,unplugged the usb connection to the computer and waited awhile,then plugged the usb back in,turned the printer on and left it to.

Update - A few weeks later I started having trouble accessing the scanning capabilities from the Mac. I spoke with Brother Support and they took me thru the following re-installation steps, which solved the problem.

1. Delete the 'Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/Library/Preferences/Brother' folder.
2. Delete the 'Library/Image Capture/TWAIN Data Sources/Brother TWAIN.ds' file.
3. Delete the 'Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/ControlCenter' and 'Library/Printers/Brother/Utilities/DeviceSelector' folders.
4. Restart computer.
5. Empty your trash.
6. Re-install the Control Center following the steps above.

You can't. Only Brother has a program to do that. They may have left it out in the update. Unless they state otherwise it is their fault, not Apple's. If they claim it still works in your version of macOS then see the following:

You should try each, one at a time, then test to see if the problem is fixed before going on to the next.
