I bought another laser printer

Wait, what year is this? Do computers still have CD drives?

The companies that aren't advanced enough to allow you to load drivers off of the internet still ship CDs with their equipment. Apparently Brother is in that category.

Crazy. For the past 5 years at least, I would not have had a way to do anything with the cd other than make it a coaster or play Chinese throwing stars with it.

Brother has a site where you can download the drivers. No CDs required. I've done it several times.

Yep, and if that were easier than tossing the CD into the drive, that's how I would have handled it.

It's a pack in for tech challenged boomers.

I still have an old HP LaserJet 3P that I bought in about 1992. It works (slowly), but the last couple of toner cartridges have leaked, resulting in streaks down each page. I finally turned it off a year or so ago and use my HP 8600 color inkjet printer/scanner/copier, which I've had for a number of years.

Finally had to take our HP Color LaserJet4550n we bought back in early 2001 behind the shed and shoot it. What a run, almost 20 years! Replaced it with an HP CLJ M553dn. W10 boxes discovered it right off the network, easy peasy. Used the CD to install drivers for the Windows 7 machine. Que sera, sera.
