    This link from support.brother is for the Macintosh and it addresses your problem. Take your time and follow the instructions carefully, then you should have no more problems:

    This next link from apple tells you what current driver/software is available for your Brother model:

    My own iMac with the current el capitan version has given me no problems whatsoever, indeed I can recommend it without any reservations.
