I would boot in safemode (hold down f8 immediately when it starts (when it says Starting Windows xp), then delete all printers (associated with this) in device manager.

remove any printer software as well (add remove programs or start programs (printer program name, remove software IF listed),

also remove the port you are using in device manager be it lpt or usb. if the drivers siuggests installking without it connected do so, otherwise, just restart and it shoudl start installking the hardware amnd software it finds. be sure you have the correct drivers ready as well>
Good Luck

ML 2240 printer not detected by Windows 7

Hello,

Try installing it in safe mode.

To go to safe mode, do the following:

Restart and tap F8. Use the arrow keys to highlight safe mode with networking and hit enter. Install the driver from there and follow the on-screen instructions.

If no go, check the device manager of any question mark. There might be some outdated drivers that cause this problem. You can use RadarSync (free version) to scan your computer for outdated drivers.

After fixing all driver related issues, try installing the printer again.

I hope this helps!

Follow the on-screen instructions, do not use usb-extension cables. Try a new thick and short (well shielded) usb cable, connected it directly to the rear usb ports of your PC.

I could not install my Brother DCP-135C MFL-Pro Installation. Because it could not detect USB cable. Please help.

It sounds like you may have plugged it in too early in the installation. Try uninstalling it and completely re-install, but don't connect the usb cable until the installation software tells you.

Installing with disc dcp-150cprinter gets to plug in usb cable i do this then nothing happens at all after this what can i do

Hello;

Please disconnect the printer from the PC and then install the software(driver) of the printer. While installing the driver, during installation the PC will tell you to connect the printer. (that's the proper time to connect the printer to the pc) . then the pc will automatically detect the printer and it will continue the installation process. (please follow the on-screen instruction)

(for more information pls see the document manual for the proper installation of the printer).

hope this will resolve the problem.

DCP-135c all in one printer

I guess you have connected the usb cable to a hub.

You have to connect the cable directly to a pc usb port.

In some cases you may need a new driver wich can be download from www.brother.com
