Connecting Brother Printer to your home or office Wi-Fi network allows you to print wirelessly from anywhere. Using these simple steps, you can connect your Brother printer to Wi-Fi within minutes.
Complete Steps to Connect Your Brother Printer to Wi-Fi
- Check your printer's wireless compatibility. Connect your computer to the same wireless network as the printer. Make sure the computer and printer are both on.
- Note the model number and name inside the printer tray. To download Brother's official driver and installation software, you'll need this. Make sure you're running the right OS.
- Once the download is complete, run the software. When you reach the connection method screen, click wireless printer connection. The SSID and password of your Wi-Fi network need to be entered. The computer must be connected to the right Wi-Fi network.
- Wireless settings are automatically configured by the software. This process takes 2-3 minutes. A beep or blinking light on your Brother printer indicates successful Wi-Fi connectivity.
- Select your printers from the control panel on Windows or system preferences on a Mac. If the wireless connection is established, your Brother printer name will appear. To print over Wi-Fi, select it.
- Make sure the printer works properly on the wireless network by printing a sample page. Your Brother printer is now connected to Wi-Fi and you can print wirelessly.
