Brother Printer Not Connecting to Mac Wireless
If you’re having trouble connecting your Brother printer to your Mac wirelessly, there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue. First, make sure that your Brother printer is compatible with your Mac. Check the list of supported printers on Brother’s website to be sure.
Next, check that your wireless router is turned on and functioning properly. If it’s not, that could be the reason why your printer isn’t connecting. If both of those things are in working order, try restarting both your printer and your Mac.
Sometimes all it takes is a fresh start to get things working again. Still, having trouble? There are a few more steps you can take, like updating the firmware on your Brother printer or resetting the printing system on your Mac.
We’ve got instructions for both of those procedures in our Knowledge Base.
