Hi! new here so hopefully someone can help. I have received a recently new Brother MFC-J1205W printer. I can print the network configuration page to see what its settings are. However, I've found no way to be able to reconfigure it. I first tried the BRAdmin program on Window via a direct USB cable. But that program cannot locate the printer via USB. I can print to the printer using that cable just fine. I was able to print the network IP value including its wireless SSID and I know the passphrase. However, when I attempt to connect to that IP on a private network of the same sub-net it does not respond. I've tried resetting the WiFi according to the manual. Nothing happening. I'm completely at a loss with this.
I'm hoping that someone with some experience with this particular printer can provide some notes, thoughts or point me to sufficient documentation (because the Brother manual does not do a good job of explaining). Also, having used Brother printers extensively in the past I'm frustrated by how limited this model's configuration access is.
So, if anyone can provide some guidance I will be gratefully appreciating.
Thanks - bobmct
