After we changed the printing spools, the printer is having problems

Spools? Do you mean the toner cartridge? If it is, take it out and holding it on the outside edges, rock it back and forth 10 to 20 times to even out the toner in the cartridge. And rock it, don't shake it. Then put it back in and try it again. If it has the same problem, there's a chance you got a bad cartridge; in the case explain the problem to the provider and ask them to give you a replacement.

IBM 6400 model i10 print problem

It's likely a "hammer" is defective. This can be caused by
a build up of ink under the ribbon shield and/or around the hammer "fret" itself or the fret is physically broken. Remember
that this is a "shuttle" printer and each fret covers anywhere from
one to three characters depending on model. Some cover fractions of characters as well. The problem will appear as either
data missing on the left or right margin or a blank column of missing data going down the page.

A technician is required to solve all of these problems as the
shuttle assembly must be removed.

How to change from parallel to serial

Hi, if your PC has a serial port I'd think the motherboard should have a parallel port header on board. What you'd need to find would then (if my idea is right) just be a parallel port bracket for your computer (to be mounted at the back, in one of the plugin card spaces) which should come with a standardized connector to fit the header on the motherboard. After connection make sure that the parallel port is enabled in your BIOS OR In Case You Still face Problem and Need Online Assistance Then Please Follow Us For On : Brother Printer Support
