The system does not send these notifications automatically, so calling this method lets the Brother SDK know that your application is interested in them. Typically, you would call this method only once early in your application, either before or after configuring your notification observers. When you no longer need to monitor these notifications, you should call the matching unregisterForBRDeviceNotifications method.
