Can you print a web page wirelessly from another device? Any way you can
run an ethernet cable from the computer directly to the printer? I had a
problem with a Brother 2170. Ended up calling Brother T/S and they walked
me through a hard reset, which finally worked. Does that MFC have a USB
port? You might try that,too, if it's available.
