Hi Tamatha, email me at [email protected]. I will help you resolve the issue within minutes. You will simply need to find the driver online download and install. Jay
Do you have the cd that came with the printer? if so reinstall the driver for your printer. this should help. it sounds like the driver for your printer has been currupted.
Hi Tamatha, This is a USB device. So I will assume you are using Windows XP? If so, try this (ensuring you have the Brother drivers cd first). Disconnect the USB cable from your pc, then: 1. Go to Start 2. Click on Settings 3. Click on Printers 4. FInd your Brother printer and fax icons 5. Highlight these icons and delete them 6. Reboot your pc 7. When windows comes back to the desktop, plug the printers USB cable back into your pc 8. Switch the printer on 9. A message should pop up on the pc screen stating that a new device has been found 10. IF this message pops up, ignore it 11. Put the Borther cd into your cd rom drive and load the software. It will find the printer and install the drivers Hopefully that should work! If not, give me a shout :) Jay
A quick fix for most communication errors can be achieved by
resetting the printer and/or rebooting the PC. Simply disconnect the printer
from your computer (if USB connected)> reboot your pc > unplug and
re-plug the printer into the power source to reset it. When the printer turns
on, reconnect it to your computer (if USB connected). Then try to print again
once the computer fully recognizes the USB connection or when the WiFi light on
the printer turns solid green (if WiFi connected.).
If that doesn't help, try the steps below:

Hi,
Your problem is very common and don't worry for this. First
check the USB cable or try to connect with a new cable. If it doesn't help you
then check settings printer and faxes in control panel. Make the printer online
from settings. You can reload the driver.
