Will my Brother QL-710W Label Printer Work with Windows 11?

Several attempts to install have been unsuccessful. Information on the internet is a little murky, with Brother claiming some printers won't work with Windows 11. Other info says USB connections won't work but wireless might. I've tried both without success. Anyone out there have one of these printers and been successful?

    Hi Curmudgeon10

    File History is not really my thing, but on the bottom of the page on the link below, the steps are provided by Microsoft, is that not working for you?

    It will not connect via USB, but it does connect via WiFi. Go figure. Not the solution I wanted, but printer is usable. Thanks.

    Dave, know anything about restoring files in Windows 11 via File History? On another thread, I seem to be running short of answers.

    Hi Curmudgeon10

    I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    Below is the support page for your printer on the Brother website, that indicates your printer is compatible with Windows 11 and they provide Windows 11 device drivers for your printer, so, there should be no issue using your printer on Windows 11.

    Try installing the drivers they provide for Windows 11:
