Unable to add Brother printer back after macOS 15.4.1 update on my MacBook Pro

Upgrading to Sequoia 15.4.1 made my Brother printer (wi-fi) unable to be used. When removed from the list, it cannot be added back again, it is not discovered. When the IP is entered, no driver is found.


I need to print. I should never have upgraded.

UPDATE: I JUST FIXED THIS by checking my wifi and finding that after upgrading it automatically connected to my 2.4 wifi and not my 5gb wifi. I switched it back and now the printer shows up.


After upgrading to Sequoia 15.4.1, my Brother printer cannot be found. It shows as offline, but it is connected to my wifi. Help! Print and Scan IS enabled in settings.
