    How do you know if you have Windows 32 or 64-bit

    Start > right click on computer

    Select Properties

    Under system, you will see listed Windows 32-bit or 64-bit

    32-bit applications can run on 64-bit systems, but not vice versa

    When you run older applications, you should consider the installation of XP Mode with Virtual PC for Windows 7 (free)

    Update of Brother MFC-9700 downloads - I suggest that you always go here looking for drivers.  You want to maybe create a folder and make the backup copies of the software.

  • Brother MFC-7420 does not appear on the Device Manager

    I run a Brother MFC-7420 on Windows Vista - do it for a few years. Last week, it stopped printing in the middle of a report. When I print, it shows Status: Error. I did that the USB is correctly plugged at the end of the printer and hard drive. I uninstalled, rebooted and reinstalled the driver software. The installation will not accomplish when I reconnect the USB hard drive according to the instructions. The printer does not appear in Device Manager - is usually present in the other devices folder, but who is absent too. Other thoughts?

    Found a solution to the problem - had to install with a USB port - see below:

  • Problem install driver Brother MFC 8300 (using Windows Update)

    I need help for my printer to work with a new installation of Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.  I had to reinstall due to a CMOS error, I think it was because of a dead battery.  It could even be something else because I had other problems with this facility (explained below).  In any case, the printer is a former Brother MFC 8300 (he was a workaholic!).  Past times, I have re-installed Windows, there have not been any problems with this printer.  I just install Windows Update driver (the driver is named 'Brother MFC8600/9650 Series' in Device Manager).  But this time the installed "Windows Update" the driver and says that everything is working properly but when I go to "Devices and printers" it does not appear in "Printers and faxes" (as he usually does).  FYI, there is a list for "USB Composite Device" in "Devices" that shows "Brother MFC8600/9650 series" as a scanner.  Don't know what that means.

    I also tried to manually download the driver of 'catalog.update.microsoft.com '.  I downloaded 2 different versions of the driver.  It has a size of 2.0 MB file and the other has a 2.3 MB file size.  I found myself by installing do not either because I didn't know where the appropriate destination location has been using the 'Expand' of the 'Command Prompt' command with "expand -F: * " ."  I think that the file for the "Windows Update" file size is 2.1 MB (my memory is not the biggest however).

    I am running as a "Standard user", but I installed all the drivers of devices as an administrator.  I also noticed a problem with an application that I used before this re - install, "Ultracopier.  On installs previous he has installed fine and he demanded 'Administrator' rights after the start.  But during this installation, it did not work at all and did not 'Administrator' rights after the start.  I also had problems with a 2 to external hard drive related to the permissions and access to certain files and folders.  I don't know if any of this matters but I thought that the more information the better.

    I hope someone can help me with this because I really need this printer to work.

    Hello

    Sorry for the late reply.

    I suggest that you restart the Printer Spooler service and see if that fixes the problem.

    A print spooler is software that temporarily stores the disk printing hard or in memory until the printer is ready to print.

    Please follow the steps below:

    You must be logged on as administrator to perform the following steps:

    1. By clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, open administrative tools. In the search box, type Administrative Tools, and then click Administrative Tools.
    2. Double-click Services. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    3. Right click on the print spooler service, and then click Properties.
    4. Under the tab general , next to Startup type, make sure that Automatic is selected.
    5. If the service is not already running, under Service status, click Startand then click OK. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    For more information, please see the link below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/why-cant-I-print

    If you are still facing problems while using the printer, I suggest to uninstall the driver again and install all the optional updates offered by Windows Update and then install the printer drivers if not included in the optional updates and see if the problem persists.

    To install optional updates, follow the steps below:

    1. Press the Windows key + R
    2. Type wuapp
    3. In the left pane, click search for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer
    4. If updates are found, click on view available updates.
    5. Select the optional updates, and then click on install. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    Never use a printer installation disc to install windows drivers 8. The disks are obsolete. You get victory 8 drivers and software of brother. If there is no drivers for win 8, you can try to win 7 drivers and install in compatibility mode. If there is none of these, buy a new printer. Printers are good markets - ink is the profit machine.

  • Brother MFC-L27000DW do not wake on print

    Just bought a Brother MFC-L27000DW and have problems make him wake up when printing to it.

    I have a Windows7 machine and it seems to have no problem to wake the printer to sleep deep whenever I have something down the print queue send to her. El Capitan however doesn't.

    I downloaded the latest drivers from brother and can get the printer to work if I put it off and then on again. But I can't seem to print from El Capitan by sending something to the queue printing after that he went to sleep.

    I wireless print and there is no wifi connection problem because it works very well after completing the printer.

    Update for this. After having frustrated and entertaining the idea of returning to the printer, I called brother support.

    They walked me through the process of updating the firmware on the printer and now everything works normally.

    Impression of something of El Capitan it will send to the queue printing and the printer will wake up from deep sleep and print normally.

    Everything is good.

    In case anyone want to know the details, you can press on the ' *' and ' # ' at the same time the keys on the keypad of the printer and see your firmware version. My long string of digits began with an 'H' and the latest driver from 11.1.2016 is 'J '.
