FAQs & Troubleshooting

I'm using Mac OS® X 10.3. I cannot print to my printer that is connected to an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station. I am  using the PCL printer driver ver.1.00. How can I print?

To solve the problem, please re-setup your printer using IP Printing by following the procedure below.

  1. Open the "Printer Setup Utility".
  2. Delete the existing Brother printer from the list.
  3. Select Add Printer....
  4. Select "IP Printing" from the connect type drop down list.
  5. In "Printer Type" please select "Socket/HP Jet Direct".
  6. Enter the IP address of your Airport Station and select the Brother Printer Model from the Printer Model drop down list.

The printer should now print.
