Blocking Brother MFC-490CW Software

I am currently on Smart Security 5.2.9.1. When the firewall is turned on, my computer can no longer see my Brother Printer. As soon as I disable it, the status monitor can connect. I added brmfimon.exe & brmfcwnd.exe to the excluded applications under protocol filtering but that didn't seem to do anything. Could someone point me the right direction?

Thank you.

 

Hello jojorios

Here is something to begin with . Two articles from Eset knowledgebase regarding issues with printers. : Slow or no Internet/network/printer connection: Solution checklist or this How do I add a trusted IP address to allow connection to a network device such as a computer or printer? (5.x)

Gave all those a try, but I am still not able to connect. I checked the log files and this is what I get:

9/4/2012 11:58:09 PM No application listening on the port 192.168.0.20:5355 192.168.0.70:53840 UDP

I have no idea how to get it allow this connection.

 

Please enable logging of blocked connections in the IDS setup, reproduce the problem and then copy & paste the appropriate firewall log records here.
