I have a Brother HL 2040 that I use on Remote Desktop connection. Our letterhead logo either doesn't print at all now or only partially prints on this Brother. It prints fine on other printers in the office and used to print on the Brother. What's up with that?

Right click with mouse on the print icon in bottom right of pc ,select cancel print in list, then go to printers in control panel and clear all print jobs in your printer list.
Make sure you've got the firewall set to allow printing on the computer working as a print server.
Another simple solution is to pick up an ethernet or wireless print server unit. It's going to cost more, but it's typically very reliable, and doesn't depend on another computer for printing.
Press the blue "Go" button 3 times (within two seconds). The unit will print a "Print Settings" page with everything from serial number to a replacement toner count. Page count is first item, left column, below the drum life bar graph.
You can't hook up two HL 2040 with 1PC. It will make your PC crazy and don't know which printer should go for printer.
You must remove 1 HL2040. After that you should be fine.
Make sure to clean all the rollers you can see and make sure to check the paper sensor, and clean all rollers and paper paths with some Isopropyl Alcohol (AKA rubbing alcohol)
