If you are going to connect your Brother machine to your network, we recommend that you contact your system administrator prior to installation. | |
If you are using Windows® Firewall or a firewall function of anti-spyware or antivirus applications, temporarily disable them. Once you are sure that you can print, configure the software settings following the instructions. | |
If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the printer, you must reset the print server back to its factory default settings (see Reset the network settings to the factory default). |

If the LCD shows Connection Error, a session overlap has been detected. The machine has detected more than one access point/router on your network with the SecureEasySetup™ mode, the Wi-Fi Protected Setup mode or AOSS™ mode enabled. Make sure that only one access point/router has the SecureEasySetup™ mode, the Wi-Fi Protected Setup mode or the AOSS™ mode enabled and try starting from 1 again. If the LCD shows No Access Point, the machine has not detected your access point/router on your network with the SecureEasySetup™ mode, the Wi-Fi Protected Setup mode or AOSS™ mode enabled. Move the machine closer to your access point/router and try starting from 1 again. If the LCD shows Connection Fail, the machine has not successfully connected to your access point/router. Try starting from 1 again. If the same message is indicated again, reset the print server back to its factory default settings and try again.
