This means you can be locked out of registering your printer. Why are all printer companies the stupidest companies ever?
I am looking for mods!
1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.
2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)
3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.
4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.
5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.
6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.
why would you register a brother printer?
I don't remember why, but I'm pretty sure I needed to to use some kind of service.
But why are you trying to re-register it now?
The whole point of Brothers is they just work.
Buy a cheap laser and throw it in your closet and only pull it out the few times you need to print, and it will always just work no matter what you plug it into.
There's zero reason to register, and even less to try and update that later.
I'm still bitter my old brother printer tried to force me to buy ink. Had to put black tape over the sensors. It seems they don't do that anymore, thankfully.
We have an older Brother printer, and they now insist, even though there's a USB port, that you register with them to print over wifi. There is no driver for USB that I could find. There is an app that will let you print over USB, but it's buggy and very limited in function.
