Brother TWAIN 2
Brother TWAIN 2 is a TWAIN driver for Brother scanners and multifunction devices on macOS. It acts as a bridge between scanner hardware and TWAIN-compatible applications like Photoshop, Preview, or dedicated scanning software, allowing users to directly import scanned documents and images into their workflows. The TWAIN protocol is a standard for image acquisition on personal computers, and Brother provides this driver to enable their scanner products to work with macOS applications that support TWAIN scanning.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionBrother TWAIN 2 is a hardware driver component for Brother scanners, not a standalone application, and it does not have a separate distribution channel outside the Brother scanner driver package. If you are using an Intel-only version under Rosetta, the solution is to download and install the latest official Brother scanner driver package from Brother's support site for your specific scanner model. Check Brother's support page for your device (search "Brother [your model] macOS driver"), download the current driver package, and install it — this will replace the outdated TWAIN driver with a current version that may include Apple Silicon support depending on your model. If Brother has published a native Apple Silicon driver for your scanner, the installer will provide it. If your scanner model is older and Brother has not released a native Apple Silicon driver yet, contact Brother support to confirm whether one is planned. Note that Rosetta 2 will be removed in macOS 28 (late 2027), so it is important to verify driver availability for your specific scanner before that deadline.
