I bought a Brother laser printer a while back but it set itself up by default using the WSD protocol. After some time it stopped responding to the network and I could use it only after reinstalling the driver every time I wanted to print.

Only after I set it up with the TCP/IP protocol, it works fine and is available every time.

TIL protocols other than TCP/IP exist and are used for connecting printers.
