    You have that backwards, Brother has not written a driver for 5460 to run in Lion, the address of your requests to them.

    Go to the support site of the Brothers and observe if they have a well-matched driver can be downloaded. Apple also offers a complete set of printer drivers supplied by Brother. Have you checked to observe if it contains a driver for the printer?

    I just ran into the identical trouble with my printer Brother MFC 685 after upgrading to OS 10.6.8 (on my way to Lion). I downloaded the Brother Printer driver v2.7 nevertheless scanning still does not work.

    I found that if I attempt to command the scanner through the scanner controls the printer does not work. On the other hand, if I go into my system preferences and select the print and scan, then the order of the scanner, it works! Anticipate this helps. Let me know.

    I followed his suggestion. The scanner icon is not acknowledged in the preferences panel "print / scan" and nothing happens.

    Possibly will be a particular trouble with this "all in one" system of MFC. I spoke to support team on the website and I hope the brother acquire a response soon.
