I don't know what the problem is

I printed out map directions two days ago and then yesterday i tried to print out a yard sale flyer and it would not work. the orange light at the top where the X is keeps blinking. I uninstalled the software and then installed it again and it would not print the sample page either. I reset it and the computer. I checked my connections and did everything the computer troubleshooting told me to do. I put in fresh ink and there is not problem with paper. I don't think that I need to pay geeks two dollars a minute to fix this. Please help

This light signifies there is a paper jam. If you are SURE there is no paper stuck, check the door sensor o the bottom right and spin the rubber wheels on the inside a bit! Hope this helps!

I tried to print a route map from MapQuest, but it didn't print. I tried to cancel the printing, but it's been deleting since yesterday and been blocking any other document I tried to print

Restart both your printer and your computer. It might finish the print job after you restart the printer and yes it will block any other print jobs.

WHEN I GO TO PRINT TO MY HP J4550 THE JOBS GOES TO PRINT BUT IT ALSO SENDS MANY JOBS TITLED SERIAL NUMBER JOBS. THE PRINTER WILL SLOWLY WORK THROUGH THESE(WITH OUT PRINT ANYTHING) IT WILL EVENTUALLY GET TO...

Go into your control pannel and open up "Printers". Right click on the printer you are using and select "Properties". In the box that comes up choose "advanced"
In the middle of the menu box there should be "Spool print documents so program finishes printing faster" below it is "Print directly to the printer"
Change the option to Print directly and then press Apply at the bottom, this will get rid of the "Serial Job Number" that comes up before printing. :o)

Low Toner Warning

Turn the unit off. Remove the cartridge and shake it back and forth. Ten place it and turn the unit back on. Also you can reset the counter on the cartridge, go to UNI KIT and look under Brother TN 110 refill support. These people sell refills. The ink you get with he printer is minimal. Also turning the printer off and back on will help with resetting. I found that there is plenty of toner left when the warning comes on.

Printing 2 pages on landscape document

Usually if you see the page in the Publisher window is already landscape, it will go landscape in the Printpreview and also in the print out. I just try to imagine what is your problem.
If I am not mistaken, this is what you did:
You have two "small" pages (maybe A5??) and you want to print it in one page of A4. Of course the A4 should be landscape.
Publisher does not have the facility to set 2 pages A5 in one A4 like in Microsoft Word.
The easiest way is just create a new page with A4, then copy the 2 pages (or you called it flyers) and paste it in that A4 landscape page.
Publisher can do print 2 pages A5 in one sheet A4 but the arrangement is as booklet. You can see the choices in File --> Page Setup --> tab "Layout" --> scroll the Publication type.
I do print 2 pages A5 in one sheet with many variations using addition software named "Clickbook".
Let me know if I m wrong in interpret your problem.
