I use my 2015 MBpro Mac OS 11.4 with a number of Brother printers each with different stationery.
After a system upgrade the printers lose the names I assign them and somewhat laboriously I have to identify each printer and rename.
Not an issue when updates are every month or so but they have been coming up to weekly recently.
Anyone else had this issue. Any solutions?
Thanks
SB

Reset the Printing System:
I had the same issue with my Epson Eco Tank Printers - Reseting the Printing System fixed it, as the drivers were installed in an instant.

Thank you for the screenshot.
All looks fine. That is how it should look.
So, report back how it all works out.
Oh thank you so much. I'll try after the next system upgrade
