Question about Brother HL-5250dnt Laser Printer

Can't print - paper light is on

My printer won't print and the paper light is on. There is no paper jam anywhere, I pulled out everything and can't find a jam, and both trays are full enough. I am unsure why I cannot print!

Pull the tray out at the bottom of the printer. This is causing the printer to think it has a paper jam. It is simply the paper feed button.

Any other issues email me at [email protected]

If you checked everything, trays, ink cartridge etc., and see no paper jam anywhere, take the top cover off and look inside the (head) for the jammed paper! This printer is problem free.

i used a bit of strapping cable and slid it up between where the paper first goes into the printer from the paper tray and found there was a bit of paper there. that fixed the problem.

Brother 5250

I had the same problem on 4 Brother HL-5250's, I checked the whole printer, and couldn't find a paper jam, yet the red printer light wouldn't shut off. I finally followed the instructions on Brother's website for removing a paper jam, and the solution for all 4 printers was paper stuck in the fuser cover. See below on how to open the fuser cover.

Pull the tabs at the left and right hand sides toward you to open the fuser cover (1).

Hint
There are 2 kinds of covers at the rear of the printer. Please make sure to open both the back cover (step 7) and the fuser cover (step8).

Get a thick piece of paper and feed it in to the printer following the paper path the best you can until you get the piece of paper you can't see out of it.
