how do you print multiple pictures. When I select many in the folder the option has been removed and also in the photo viewer.

Everything worked great until I upgrade to windows 11. I had to use my IP address to make printer work. There is no manage printer button in windows 11, so my scanner no longer works.
I hope they put the manage printer button back in an update.

Thanks this method solved the printer issue for me with the scanner.

Some of the screen shots is from the old windows 10. No this did not solve the issue. You just showed the basic that anyone can figure out. You should go more in depth on how to get the printer to print and scan. Right now It will print but will not scan. Yes, I went to the brother site and installed the proper drivers.
