Brother HL-2070N Will Not Print

In January 2011 Brother update its drivers for your printer due to a compatibility problem. You haven't advised what operating system you're using but you apparently need to update your drivers.

If you are running Windows 7, you will have to update the drivers either from Microsoft Update or Brother. Click on this link for Brother.

If you are running Windows XP, CLICK HERE

Reset printer to factory settings according to manual. Plugged in ethernet cable directly to router. Ran BRAdmin which recognized printer and saw that IP address had been automatically set within new router range. Changed setting to STATIC. Deleted old printer definition from printer list and added updated definition using Printer Setup Utility. Printed test page from BRAdmin. Also printed file from Documents folder wirelessly. Changed printer settings in another laptop & was able to print wirelessly from there as well.

Try to reinstall the software and should be fine.

Hi Jeffery,

Can you give a little more info, you say the same doc keeps printing, do you know how many times you haved tryed to print this doc.

If you can get inside the print q and delete the print job.

then try a new print job it sounds like the same job is stuck in the Q

plug an ethernet cable into one of the ethernet jacks on the router and the other end into the printer. run driver installation setup on your computer that is connected to the wireless network and choose peer-to-peer networking. let your computer search for the network printer. follow installation instructions to complete.

you can download the driver here

make sure the protocall is enabled for your specific printing preferences.

if not sounds more a computer issue.

The printer is ready to print. Pressing control panel button wakes up the printer to Ready mode

My guess is the problem is with Firefox trying to print the page and not the printer. Try to go to File > Print Preview and see if it looks normal there. If not, I have 3 suggestions:

1. Try to change the "Page Options" or "Scale" under the Print Preview
2. Try to install and use the Firefox Add-On "IE Tab". This gives you the choice to display the page with Internet Explorer, while still using Firefox. You can turn on IE Tab, and then try to print. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1419
3. Upgrade to Firefox 3.
