"I can't believe I had to fill out all that stupid information to download a free driver. I searched for the file on google, and this site popped up...

"Cannot give an imformative and honest evaluation of this driver, I downloaded it out of sheer haste,instead of sound reasoning. No other drivers available at the time of download that I thought would be a better match. So I can't say in all honesty good or bad, my apologies to the contributor. (SORRY GUYS!!!)"

Thank you again.

"I prefer working with Stuffit compressed files. This one with Winzip didn't have a setup or install file within the archive. One should make the archive self executable before giving it out to the public. Meanwhile, I will mop up all the files just loaded into the temp folder and try to sort out how to install the driver."

"Used TC's instructions...still won't install. Am trying to install MFC7000fc. It's not even on the list of supported printers. Supposedly it's a built in driver, but the computer doesn't even recognize that it exists, so doesn't find the appropriate driver. I had this thing working before and since i installed a switch box and another printer it won't do NUTTIN....HELP&q

"Yes!. It worked (almost) perfectly on my MFC7000FC with Win XP. It scans better (all features anabled). Feature-rich driver interface for printing, scanning and copying. At Last. Now I have my MFC7000 work as my backup/secondary printer. Old, but still acceptable."
