Is my Brother MFC-J835DW S/N U63021K2F209206 Compatable with your product for iPad WiFi Printing? If so, which model is best suited to perform this task? My router is Netgear N600 Wirerless Dual Band Gigabit Router WNDR3700

It should be. I don;t thinkthe unit cares what kind of printer it is. If's its a WIFI router it should work

I've never tried it and don't want to. But I think the key may be in the Brother HL-210W Quick setup guide. https://www.brother-usa.com/ModelDocuments/Consumer/Quick%20Setup%20Guide/QSG_HL_2170W_EN_1293.PDF I would recommend taking the printer to the router and making a wired connection. Then look at page 46 and see if you can follow the instructions for web based browser management...log into the printer's server and change the pw. Alternatively, you might be able to restore all network settings to default (also page 46) and then use the CD (bypassing driver installation?) to establish the new network settings. Good luck! Let us know what works. We all may face this sometime. I've never tried it and don't want to.

Here's another "thank you" for the information. I just received my new Brother MFC-9840CDW and bought the recommended SODIMM from OEMPCWorld. Everything worked fine, right out of the box. Fantastic!

Very. There are two different drivers you can use, one is built in to the OS (CUPS Driver, if that means anything to you, if not, it's not important); the other, downloadable from Brother directly. The driver from Brother may work better in terms of duplexing from some programs, but either is sufficient for all tasks. Brother also has supported Macs for as long as I can remember, and were quick to get updated drivers at every OS upgrade as well. For Macs, I believe Brother probably has the best support of all the major printer manufacturers. EDIT: Just saw the price (689 as of 2/17/14), there are other available models that will also be compatible, and $400 cheaper. Very.

One of the reasons that I bought this printer was the wireless capability. I haven't tried an ipad, but I have been unsuccessful in my attempts to print wirelessly (from computer or iphone).

I didn't have this one set-up for WiFi but just set it up and printed from my iPhone so I'm sure it will print from your iPad.

Using its built in Wi-Fi connection, I have printed from a Mac, two iPads and an iPhone. I don's see how three compters would not work as well. Hard wiring might be a hastle.

HiI am using a Brother right now and it is working great. It is a wireless computer and it works like a charm. It is along the lines of a Brother MFG-J270W. The Epson worked well and was easy to set up but I havent used it extensively for wireless connectivity. I use it for connected. I will check it out though and let you know. The brother has always worked and is easy to use though.

This printer isn't designated as a wireless unit; there would be a "W" somewhere in the last three letters of the model number if it were. However, you might find a router that would go from networked to wireless. Personally, I'd rather get one that's designed to be used the way I plan to use it, which is what I did (for security reasons). Brother has several wireless multi-function printers, so you can just buy what you want.

Yes , it is all down to the printer but I use it with two and they both work instantly. Most delays seem to come from using I Pads to print but thats not the fault of the router.

Afraid I can't help. I have never tried it and only printed once from my iPad. I guess you would call me an non techie. Hope someone can provide you the answer soon.

can't say as I boycott Apple products. I would do a search for the software to the model you want. You'll need this installed on any device where you want to use wireless printing. If you have know issues installing the software, it should work. In theory.

I am wondering the same thing. What this person is asking is can we connect the phone using USB to the Router and will it see the phone like a 3G/4G USB dongle? My reason is I need to connect a Printer to the Ethernet (Wired) and use an Ipad connected Wireless to the router to have both Internet access (Shared through the phone connected to the Router) and Print in a special application. If I can use my Phone for the internet 'dongle', I have no 'extra' charges from Verizon to deal with.

No, you want the 6505/DN (the D in the model indicates it's a duplex model) This is sort of a standard with most printer manufacturers. (D normally Duplex Printing (not necessarily duplex adf scanning, W normally is wireless and N is normally wired networking)
