2017 MacBook Pro OS 10.12.5 and Brother printer/scanner MFC-8890DW. I have installed the appropriate driver from the Brother website, but the scanner button / function is not present for this printer in the Printers & Scanners window (it was present with previous OS). I can use Brother Control Center that I installed, but it is cumbersome and sub-par to the Mac Printers & Scanners app. How can install the scanner driver for this printer in the Printers & Scanners app? Help appreciated.
