Please don't install a driver from the CD. Nearly a 100% probability of being OLD!
These days, manufacturers give their Current driver to Apple, who keeps it on the Software Update server(s).
Please read this (and notice that Brother has given a current driver to Apple):
OS X: Printer and scanner software available for download - Apple Support
After another Reset, Do Not install anything. OS X will add the driver automatically.
Before adding the printer, reset the printer by powering off for a minute and then back on. (for WiFi)
Another thing to try - connect by USB and add it just to be sure the printer is working.
