Brother MFC-J6720DW Remote Setup Port (COM3) Driver

The Brother MFC-J6720DW Remote Setup Port (COM3) driver helps Windows recognize the USB-connected remote setup interface used by Brother software to communicate with your multifunction printer. It is intended for users who need to configure the device through Brother’s Remote Setup utility or resolve a missing or unrecognized remote setup port.

Key Features

• Remote setup communication: Supports the connection between compatible Brother configuration software and the MFC-J6720DW’s remote setup interface.
• USB interface recognition: Helps Windows identify the associated port rather than leaving it listed as an unknown device.
• Legacy Windows support: Intended for compatible installations of Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, and XP; select the package that matches your Windows version and system architecture.
• Configuration support: Works alongside the appropriate Brother software. This port driver alone does not replace the printer, scanner, or Remote Setup application.

How to Install Brother MFC-J6720DW Remote Setup Port (COM3) Driver

1. Check your Windows version. Open your system information and confirm whether you use a 32-bit or 64-bit edition. For Windows 10/11 systems, verify compatibility carefully: Windows 10 is listed as supported here, but Windows 11 support is not confirmed.
2. Choose the correct package. For a Brother MFC-J6720DW Remote Setup Port (COM3) driver download for Windows, use an official Brother source and select the latest version compatible with your operating system. Choose a free download that explicitly supports your model and includes the required remote setup component.
3. Prepare the USB connection. Turn on the printer and follow the installer’s instructions about when to connect its USB cable. Avoid connecting through a hub if you are troubleshooting detection problems.
4. Install the software. Run the downloaded installer, approve any required administrator prompt, and complete the setup. Restart Windows if requested.
5. Check recognition and operation. Open Device Manager to check for warning symbols, then test communication using the compatible Brother Remote Setup utility. Windows may assign a COM number other than COM3; a different number alone does not indicate a driver fault.

Keep the driver and related Brother software updated when a compatible update addresses connection issues or system changes. Before you update, check the supported operating systems and package details rather than assuming the newest release supports every older Windows edition.
