In the era of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the devices that we can control with our voice, printers continue to give us problems similar to those they gave us 10 or 15 years ago.
Let's not forget that the printer is one of the few pieces of equipment that continues to incorporate mechanical components. Moreover, we must bear in mind that printing technology prints something as physical and as tangible as paper. That is, we print on paper now, as we printed on paper 30 years ago.
Having made this reflection, you are going to conclude that it is very useful to know what to do when the Brother printer tells us about an error or how to Install Brother Printer when you got a new one. The goal is to reprint normally and with the optimum quality.
Error messages
Sometimes the printer will alert you to the nature of the problem. That way, you can avoid the tedious trial-and-error method.
What are printer error messages?
Well, these are those indicator lights that only turn on or blink when an error occurs. The warning that we all know well is that of an empty ink cartridge. However, there are more types of alert
To find out what each error indicator means, you should check your printer's manual. If you saved the paper version of this guide, just skip to the section that says Brother printer troubleshooting or error indicators.
If you do not have the manual at hand, on paper, you must enter the manufacturer's website and look for the manual corresponding to your model. The name of the model always appears in a visible and prominent place on the team.
Once you find that digital document, which is usually available in PDF version, you must go to the problems and errors section. It is recommended that you download this PDF.

Unable to connect Brother printer to Wi-Fi
If you want to print via WiFi and you can't, try to connect the printer to the computer via USB. If then the thing works, you already know that the problem is with the WiFi connection.
Check that the printer receives a strong enough WiFi signal. Verify that the printer appears in the list of WiFi networks. It is also necessary that you move the printer closer to the router, in order to ensure sufficient wireless bandwidth.

Other connectivity issues
It may seem obvious, but when any device fails, the first thing to do is check the connections. Check that the USB cable is securely connected at both ends. And check that the power cord is plugged into the wall and on the end to your Brother printer.
The printer is a piece of equipment that is used at specific times, so it is likely that someone has unplugged it to charge the mobile or other device.
