Hello there
You may not see a paper jam.

This may work for you, it has worked for many here I given this advice so gave it a try it could work for you. Generally when this happens, something has fallen into the printer, or a piece of paper has been jammed in there.

First step, remove the ink cartridge, and turn the printer upside down and gently shake it, see if anything comes out.

If nothing goes, or you can't hear anything rattling around, get a piece of cardstock paper (60lb or heavier) and gently push this through the printer, to see if it will help push out what might be stuck in there.

And gave the rode that the ink slides on a good clean and maybe a bit oil on cloth and wipe the rod with it.

Please come back and just gave a vote, it will gave me some satisfaction to know am helping some one so I will keep on helping.

Clear the paper jam. (Please refer to "FAQs & Troubleshooting" for information on the Paper Feed Problem.) If the problem still continues after clearing the paper jam, please contact Brother Customer Service from "Contact Us" http://www.brother-usa.com/support/CustServ.aspx.

What cause a error report Unable to print 70? and how do I solve problem. Many thanks Susan

These mean the machine does not work due to a paper jam or some sensor problem. try to clear the paper jam. If the problem still continues after clearing the paper jam, try to clean the encoder strip (clear strip of plastic) located behind the head.
