Do You Know How to Install Brother Printers without a CD-Rom?
Introduction:
Brother printers are common in each work and home offices.
While the printer out of the box comes with everything you wish to install the
printer's driver on your computer, not everyone can use the CD-Rom for
installation. Many of today's sleek computer models don't have a CD-Rom drive in
any respect. Though you are installing an existing printer on a new computer
you no longer have the CD-Rom, don't worry. You can install the Brother Printer
driver through online methods.
Find the driver at the Brother Support Service:
The driver usually downloads into your computer's
"Downloads" folder, and you will need to open it and move it to the
"Printers" folder. Fortuitously, setup prompts can keep you moving to
the next step; just know that the "Printers" folder is in the control
panel on the hard drive of your system. If the driver does not create it there
initially, the printer and computer might have trouble finding each other, even
though the drivers are installed. Drag and drop it into the right location if
required.
Through the various setup prompts, choose the appropriate
operating system. Most people choose the full package setup so they can access
all functions and features of the Brother printer, though you can select a
custom setting. Read and agree to the user agreement when prompted to continue
through the setup.
Configure the Printer to Your Network
Step 1: Having the
drivers installed is really only steps one. Most printers are on wireless
networks these days, working with multiple computers or devices that simply
don't plug into the printer, and the printer is not always hard-wired into the
wireless router. Configuring the Brother printer to your network is important
for correct functioning.
Step 2: Gather the
wireless network information, including the network name and passwords. The
network name is also referred to as the SSID. Passwords are sometimes referred
to as network keys or encryption keys. This information is located on a sticker
at the base of the wireless router. You will also need a USB cable for the
installation process.
Step 3: Connect the
Brother printer to power but don't connect the USB cable yet. Turn on your
computer if it is not already on. You should already have installed the printer
drivers. Open the printer network driver and select the configure option,
choosing the "Brother Peer-to-Peer Network."
Step 4: Connect The USB cable to the printer and computer. The prompts can ask to change the
firewall settings and potentially make adjustments to the antivirus software.
These changes are required to allow printer access to the network. Be sure to
select "Wireless Setup" to ensure the printer can work
Step 5: over the network rather than the USB hard
wire. The driver setup should recognize your network, select it and follow the
remaining prompts for setup. Unplug the USB and test the setup.
