8.1 drivers are not working on my Windows 10. Are there any current drivers? I’d hate to think I’ll have to throw away a new printer because Brother can’t keep up.
No, there is no another option if windows 8.1 driver doesn’t work. Make sure you have tried windows windows 8.1 drivers on widnows 10 computer by manual printer installation method because only manual installation can in this type of cases.
I have upgraded to window 10 and my printer is not printing PDFs, I need to reinstall my HL 2240D printer but cant see the windows 10 download – only windows 8 – when will windows 10 download be ready or where do I find it?
Windows 10 drivers are not available on even Brother’s official website, they are stated:- Most likely windows 8.1 will work on windows 10 as well. So we have added windows 8.1 drivers on our download section list, you can download the drivers for windows 8.1 here. Do uninstall old drivers and install 8.1 drivers.
