Now install the downloaded driver package.
click the "Change driver settings" button.If there is an entry for your Brother device (there should not be).Click the link for "Print server properties" that appears in the toolbar at the top of the Devices and Printers window.
Once the Drivers are re-installed on your computer find the SETTING on CONNECTING VIA USB.Ĭhoose LOCAL: CONNECTION USB and choose NEXT. Then re-install Driver BEFORE CONNECTING it via USB. Make sure that all the old Printer Drivers in relations to BrotherMFC-J430W are UN-installed correctly from Win 7.
Make sure that you have installed the correct Win 7 Version Driver ( 64 bit ). Previously installed and used the printer for a few years. Everything for that printer/scanner/fax/copier works on my Windows 10 laptop (did that this morning as a last resort), but not Windows 7 on which I I have plugged other items into the USB port, and they work. Scroll down and agree to the End User License. Click on ‘Full Driver & Software Package’. Your computer’s operating system will be detected automatically. Click on ‘Downloads’ and enter your Model Name, then click ‘Search’. I am able to print wirelessly, but not with USB. Click on ‘Support & Downloads’ icon to be taken to the Brother Solutions Center. The printer shows up in Devices and Printers, but "Needs troubleshooting." It's the same thing every single time (whether reinstalling or troubleshooting): Fail - "BrotherMFC-J430W doesn't have a driver." Meanwhile, I can neither print "Brother MFC-J430W" is found "BrotherMFC-J430W" Both drivers searched for have the same name, with the exception of one has a space after "Brother" and the other does not. Two drivers are searched for when I plug in the USB cable (by any installation method). I've tried both the CD that came with the printer and the drivers on Brother's website (both full Suite, then printer/scannerĭrivers only), as well as trying Windows plug-and-play, all for USB. Had to reinstall (printer was deleted - my mistake). I've successfully used the MFC-J430W with a USB on my laptop in the past.
