Brother MFC 7362N slow to print

We have a new-ish 7362N. All of a sudden it has gone from printing the first page of a document within 10 seconds to taking up to a minute to print the first page. We're a medical practice so we need to be able to print receipts quickly. I've looked on the Brother website to no avail! Any ideas?? Thanks!

Update the driver. Go to "Start", "Devices and Printers". Right click, choose "Properties". Click the hardware tab. Click the "Properties" button at the bottom. Click the Driver tab at the top. You should be able to update the driver from there.

SOURCE: Brother MFC 425CN will not print black

Have a look at the bk cart. Did you fix it well into position by clipping the support above the cart?
Can you see any difference by ink fuel before and after cleaning cycle? If there is no difference the valve is not open: drill a hole into the top cover and leave it open. Try another cleaning cycle again.

SOURCE: HP Laserjet 1200 prints pdf documents slow

pdf documents are historically slow, they usually depend on how they are created and how many attachments or upgrades have been added to the document. this accounts for some of the variations of speed the documents are printed.

Hi there
With some Brother printers you can try this.

Access the internal maintenance mode by pressing the Menu/Set button, then press * 2 8 6 4 within 2 seconds. This should put you in the maintenance mode menu. Enter 80, and then scroll down with the arrow down (round) key. You'll find an entry listed as purge count. If number is over 6000, enter 2 7 8 3.

This will reset the purge count value. Then the printer will restart, hopefully without the annoying cannot clean message.


Some times this happens because of using cheap compatible ink cartridges if this is the case change the ink cartridges.

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.

Text missing when document is printed from Brother MFC-9840CWD

Hello,This issue may becaused by poor connection. Check to see if all interface connection cables arein the printer. If the printer doesn't establish good connection with thecomputer print quality will decrease.Second thing you can check are thesettings on the computer. Are they matching with settings in Brother MFC-9840CWD.This is issue is not caused from the toner cartridge or drum unit.

Brother MFC 210C Printing slow

You may have already tried but /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman"; mso-ansi-language:#0400; mso-fareast-language:#0400; mso-bidi-language:#0400;} From page 129 of the manual: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/files/dlf/doc000222/MFC-210C_UsaEngUsr_B.pdf
Changing the printer driver setting may improve the print speed.
Highest resolution needs longer data processing, transfer and printing
time. Try the other settings of quality in the printer driver ‘Basic’ tab.
Also, click the ‘Settings’ tab, and make sure you uncheck the
True2Life®.

Borderless printing is slower than normal printing. If you want to print
more quickly, set the Borderless feature off.

Brother mfc MFC-5440CN magenta issues

If you have used generic ink the head is clogged and cant be cleaned anymore.

Last chance is to use original brother ink which has cleaning fluids within the ink. Run the cleaning procedure twice and simply print 10 PAGES afterwards. Wait A DAY AND TRY TO PRINT IN MAG AGAIN:

If there will be no mag. the ph is definitley clogged and needs replacement.
