Title:
Is it OK to install Brother Windows® XP drivers into Windows Vista®?

Description:

While Windows Vista® will allow you to install Windows® XP drivers into the Vista® operating system, Brother does not recommend this course of action.

Instead click the links below to see if your Brother device has "built-in" drivers (Inbox drivers) or if Brother will develop Brother original drivers.
