Brother MFC-J825DW Printer Drivers Gone


I did a fresh install build 10061 so I need to Add this Printer (Brother HL-4040CN) wired to the Router. However, the Printer did not appear on the list. And here's what I did to get it working:

• In the router->LAN Settings: assign a static IP for the printer (in my case: 192.168.1.9)
• Control Panel->Devices and Printers->Add a Printer
• Since the Printer was not regconized by this build. Click on "My Printer is not on the list"
• Select TCP/IP and type 192.168.1.9
• A windows will popup with a list of Printer Drivers. If your Printe is not on the lis, click on "Windows Updates" to get a complete list of printer drivers
• Select my Printer (HL-4040CN).
• Done

Since you want to setup as a Wireless printer. You could do the same as I did ie. connect the printer to the router then assign a static IP for your Printer then disconnect the cable. It should not matter whether it's wired or wireless as long as it is on the network and is assigned with a fixed IP.

 

Brother printers - wireless connection


Yep, over the years I've contacted Brother by phone and online chat and email. They have a list of stock responses, none of which have solved the problem. Their printers work great when they're actually working. But the wireless issues are maddening. With other printer brands, my experience has been different - when the internet connection is restored, the printers automatically reconnect to the wifi SSID and work properly again, immediately. But for some reason this does not happen with Brother, even when their printers have reconnected.
