Help with firewall to allow multifunction printer to scan

Running Vista Prem, have Brother MFC-665CW connected on wireless LAN.
Everything works fine except when I try to scan from printer/scanner. Will
not allow connection to PC unless I turn off Windows Firewall. Have already
tried to allow every printer related program through the exceptions tab but
still will not allow to connect. Any ideas on what I have to allow through
the exceptions to be able to make it work with the firewall on? Thanks.
