How to adjust the volume on a Brother MFC-8710DW multifunction device

The sound levels on your Brother MFC-8710DW are adjustable -- and you don't even have to get up from your computer to adjust them.  You can adjust the volume right from your computer or other mobile device connected to the network.

To adjust the sound for the MFC-8710DW, open a web browser and go to the Brother's IP address.  If you don't know the IP address, you can print out a network configuration page, which will have the IP address listed on it.  (Instructions for printing the network config page can be found here: How to print a configuration page from a Brother MFC-8710DW.)

When the Brother web page loads, click on Sound Volume on the left sidebar.  You'll see options for the different sound types: Speaker, Ring, and Beeper.  Select the sound that you want to change and then choose one of the available levels -- High, Medium, Low, or Off.  Once you've made all the changes you want to make, click on the Submit button to save the changes.  If you're not sure what sound level you want, you can always test it and change it if it's too loud or too quiet.
