“No printer selected” + iOS 18 / iPadOS 18 + Brother L2370DW

[Guest /u/GoldenRuleAlways]

I have a Brother Laser L2370DW set up as a wireless AirPrint printer.

 

Some of my Apple clients (Mac, iPad mini) were able to print after updating to 18.

 

Other identical devices (same models, iOS levels) were unable to print. They would show the printer initially, but when I clicked on the printer name, the icon would spin and eventually time out with the error, “No printer selected”.

 

I updated to the latest Brother firmware (using the MacOS tool) and all of the stubborn iPads/iPhones worked again.

 

I’ve no idea why some worked and others didn’t. Hope this will help someone out there.
