i have a brothers 6 in 1
ive tried a bunch of differnt drivers.. non work.. the specific drivers arent in DSL

i set up the the interface .. put in the IP.. put name to "Brothers" put can never get a test print to work.. please help

You don't mention what model you have. I have the MFC3820CN. I haven't spent a lot of time trying to get all the functions to work. I just needed it to be able to print from my DSL box. I found a lot of help at these sites:

I haven't tried to get the faxing and scanning to work. If you manage it then please post a "how to".

Good luck

ps.... remember this.... DSL does not have the print server turned on at start up. Go into the DSL control panel and turn it on when you want print.
