Troubleshooting
The Brother printer cannot print over the network.
The Brother printer is not found on the network even after successful installation. (continued)
Question
Did your previous printing
job fail?
Are you connecting the
Brother printer to the
network wirelessly?
I have checked and tried all
the above, however the
Brother printer does not
print. Is there anything else I
can do?
I'm using security software.
Question
Did you choose to accept
the security alert dialog
during the standard
installation or BRAdmin
Light installation or when
using the printing features?
I want to know the
necessary port number for
the security software
settings.
