USB or Bluetooth? Put network settings in copier that match your inernet settings in Windows.

Go to system settings and select the 'Printer' option.

Right-click on the printer and enable the 'Use Printer Online' function.

Cancel all the printing jobs till that moment and redo the process.

Sometimes the 'Printer Offline' message occurs due to a 'Job Stuck' issue.

Check all network connections and functions.

Turn the printer off and on to see whether the device is working properly.

Yes this is possible. Depending on the type of installation that has been done on the computer, you can even scan documents to your computer as a network scanner.

You can check and see if all the features have been installed on your computer. Click on start, all programs, and look for the folder called brother. If you can find brother you can look for the sub category for Conrtrol Center. From Control Center you can scan by clicking on one of the icons. Like file or image.

If none of this is installed, get your installation disk and install the software, you can do a network installation or a Local (USB) installation.

If you decide to do a Local installtion remember to only plug in the USB cable when promted to.

If you decide to do a network installation, the machine should already be installed on the network, which I assume it is since its being used as a network Printer.

Please let me know if any of this info was usefull, and if you require more info about this.

unable to print 50& 30

I've tried everything including several driver utilities on Brother's own website. I even tried copying all the driver files identified in the device manager on an xp computer that will print to it. My last resort is to download the entire 80mb full software & drivers from Brother. I assume that's how I got it running on the other laptop years ago (but from the original disk that I can't find now). If you don't know where this is, google "mfc-665cw xp drivers" & you'll see a couple links to the Brother website. Click any of them, select "downloads" at the top, then at the left, under "notes," find "click here to see all downloads for this model. Scroll down through OS's until you get to XP & you'll see what I'm talking about. Good luck.
