hi 

I have installed a Mesh system Wifi 6 X20 into my house and i cannot print from my Brother MFC j printer. 

 

It successfully connects but i cant print. 

 

I understand the printer only works with 2.4ghz so i have created a Wifi Guest network for 2.4Ghz but still no luck. 

 

 

 

Grateful for any help.

MFC J985DW printer description says it has Ethernet connectivity. Try connecting printer with Ethernet cable to one of Satellite Deco, to see if that works.

Hi, Thank you very much for the feedback.

Would there be any error message when you can't print through the Brother printer like the computer couldn't find the printer when installing the driver?

Did you have this issue on different mobile devices?

Are you able to successfully ping the printer/IP on the computers?

 Wait for your reply and best regards.
