    Got it. Thank you.

    Have you tried removing the printer from Settings.

    Then go through the Add Printer again. See if the Brother printer is discovered. If so, see if it can add successfully this time.

    So let me get that straight, the installation went through without any error, is that right? Is it the Full Driver and Package you downloaded from this page: https://support.brother.com/g/b/downloadlist.as...

    And after the installation went through successfully, it still says "driver is unavailable" under Printers & Scanners, do I get that right in that order?

    Hello, this is Emily.

    Did you download the driver from Brother's website? Do you mind telling me what happened when you tried to install it? I would like to learn about any error message or behavior if you can describe it.

    In addition, can you type winver in the search on the taskbar and press enter, when it is launched, does it say anything about S mode?
