How to Connect iPad to Brother Wireless Printer

Connecting your iPad to a Brother wireless printer can be a seamless process, allowing you to print documents, photos, and more directly from your device. Whether you’re a student, professional, or simply someone who needs to print on the go, this guide will walk you through the steps to establish a connection between your iPad and your Brother wireless printer.

Step 1: Ensure Your Printer is Connected to Wi-Fi

Before you can connect your iPad to the printer, make sure that your Brother wireless printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iPad. You can check this by looking at the printer’s display or accessing its settings menu. If the printer is not connected to Wi-Fi, follow the printer’s manual to set up the wireless connection.

Step 2: Open the Control Panel on Your iPad

To begin the connection process, open the Control Panel on your iPad. You can find the Control Panel by swiping down from the top-right corner of the screen (iPhone X and later) or by swiping up from the bottom of the screen (iPhone 8 and earlier).

Step 3: Tap on “Wi-Fi” and Select Your Printer

In the Control Panel, tap on “Wi-Fi” to view the available networks. From the list of networks, select the Wi-Fi network that your Brother wireless printer is connected to. If you’re not sure which network to choose, you can use the printer’s display to find the network name.

Step 4: Enter the Printer’s Password (if required)

If your printer requires a password to connect to the Wi-Fi network, enter it when prompted. You can find the password in the printer’s manual or on the label attached to the printer.

Step 5: Install the Brother iPrint&Scan App

To take full advantage of the connection between your iPad and Brother wireless printer, download and install the Brother iPrint&Scan app from the App Store. This app allows you to print documents, scan, and perform other tasks directly from your iPad.

Step 6: Open the Brother iPrint&Scan App and Connect to the Printer

Once the app is installed, open it and tap on the “Add Printer” button. The app will search for available printers on your Wi-Fi network. Select your Brother wireless printer from the list of devices and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the connection process.

Step 7: Print Your Documents

With your iPad now connected to your Brother wireless printer, you can start printing documents, photos, and more. Open the file you want to print, tap on the “Share” button, and select “Print.” Choose your Brother wireless printer from the list of available printers and adjust any settings as needed before tapping “Print.”

By following these simple steps, you’ll be able to connect your iPad to a Brother wireless printer and enjoy the convenience of printing directly from your device. Happy printing!
