    Why does my Brother MFC-J6520DW All in One Printer say 'Connection failed to server'?
    • S
      Steven LynnAug 30, 2025
      A 'Connection failed to server' error on your Brother All in One Printer can occur if the network or server settings are incorrect, or if there's a problem with the network or server itself. To resolve this, confirm that your network settings are correct. If the issue persists, wait and try again later. Also, if the Web button was pressed soon after turning on the printer, the network connection might not be established yet, so waiting and trying again may help.
