How to fix the "check connections" message on a Brother MFC-490CW when pressing the "scan" button?

The printer is connected to the network by ethernet cable. It's installed on one computer. This computer can print on the Brother printer. But when we press the "scan" button on the machine, we always get this message: "check connections".
Anyone knows how to fix this?
Tip for best answer: M$0.25
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I will recomend to reinstall the driver cause seems to be that the scan option is not available. the option wasn't install at the moment of the installation or the current one is not configured as it should. thats the reason that reinstalling the driver will cause that the default configuration will be load on the computer.
