To troubleshoot the issue of your Brother printer not recognizing your computer, you can follow these steps:
1. Ensure that both the printer and the computer are connected to the same network or are physically connected through a USB cable. If using a network connection, check that the Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection is stable.
2. Restart both the printer and your computer. Often, a simple reset can resolve connectivity issues.
3. Check if the printer is turned on and there are no error lights or messages on its display. Resolve any printer errors before proceeding.
