    Windows 11 unable to find Brother MFC-9330CDW printer on network


    I have a Brother MFC-9330CDW printer USB cable-attached to a desktop PC and laptops linked to it on a wireless network. Or I should say, I did when they were all Windows 10. Since I "upgraded" them to Windows 11 the printer cannot be attached locally without disabling Memory Integrity. Which I did, so that problem is semi-solved at the expense of security. But now none of the wireless laptops can find the printer; it is only usable from the desktop system. How can I provide printer access to the Win 11 PCs on the network?

    :)

    Brother MFC J6720DW listed with strange icon in Devices and Printers

    I have reinstalled the drivers for my Brother MFC J6720DW and now the printer icon is listed in the unspecified category instead of the printer category. The printer is the "Device" icon to the right.

    Right clicking on the icon shows the usual items for a printer (printing properties etc.), In addition it shows a "Browse Files" entry that lists the card reader of the printer.

    To the left of the Brother printer icon there is another similar one that seems to be my USB card reader

    Brother MFC J825DW Printer is Offline


    Dangit, Microsoft has messed up my printers once again!

    My Brother MFC J825DW (Inkjet) printer won't print because Windows has set it to offline!

    My Brother MFC 7460DN (Laser) printer just trucks right along.

    Anybody know how I can get my Inkjet Brother back online?

    Brother Printer MFC 635cw

    I have the same problem with a Brother MFC-J835DW. Neither of the above suggestions solved the problem.

    The printer worked with Windows 10 for several weeks. Today, Windows 10 says the printer is offline. The printer is turned on, connected to the network, and responds to a ping from the Windows 10 computer. But Windows 10 still thinks the printer is "offline".

    Windows printer troubleshooter was useless. It would only suggest that I turn the printer on.

    I tried to remove and uninstall the printer but Windows 10 became non-responsive and would not delete the printer.

    Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
