Like many others, this app no longer works for me. My Samsung phone used to connect easily to my printer, which definitely helped my productivity and simplified my printing tasks. Now it's can't find the printer and always says it is unavailable. It really hope this gets fixed, because it worked perfectly before and for some reason it's changed from a five-star app to a one-star one.

Printer is usually grayed out and cannot be re-added ("cannot add printer"). This has been a problem for years and brother just ignores it. They'd better fix it soon or I'll be buying laser printers from someone else. Update 2 years later: still not working. Still the same issue. I have always been a fan of these laser printers but this is unacceptable and extremely irritating.

2026 UPDATE: Came back to LOWER my review but it was already one-star! Doesn't work correctly. Throws on constant error notifications. It fights with default printer driver and samsung printer driver -- if it cant play nice at least update the plugin to incorporate print to file or to pdf so we can turn the other drivers off. Disgusting Brothers only response is cut & paste link their product catalog. Brother hardware is better than HP but software and support are a big EFF-U to customers.
