    My printer won't connect to my laptop


    My laptop is a Dell Inspiron 3542, and my printer is a Brother MFC-L3780CDW. The printer is shown as connected in Devices and Printers, but my documents say that there's no printer. I have tried adding the printer on WordPad, but I always see an error. I have tried connecting to the printer's hotspot, but the same error comes up. Please reply or email me at *** Email address is removed for privacy *** if you have any answers and thank you in advance if you do.

    Hi Luisa,

    To help you with your concern regarding the printer, let me suggest you to contact the manufacturer for the steps on how to connect your printer to your computer. Please follow the steps on how to contact the manufacturer:

    • The name of the OEM + “contact information”
    • The name of the OEM + “PC support”

    Regards.
