SOURCE: how can I delete the memory on a brother mfc-465cn

Review page 65 in your manual. Changing the "Advanced Fax Operations:"

If received faxes are left in your machine's
memory when you change the Advanced Fax
Operations, the LCD will ask you one of the
following questions:

Erase All Fax?
Yes - Press 1
No - Press 2

Print All Fax?
Yes - Press 1
No - Press 2

• If you press 1, faxes in the memory will
be erased or printed before the setting
changes. If a backup copy has already
been printed it will not be printed again.
• If you press 2, faxes in the memory will
not be erased or printed and the setting
will be unchanged.

SOURCE: our Brother MFC 9440CN laser printer memory, keeps

When Fax Storage is set to On, copies of all received faxes are stored in the memory, thus using up a portion of the memory available for other functions.

The Fax Storage feature is utilized for Fax Forwarding, Fax Paging and Remote Retrieval. If you do not need these features, verify that Fax Storage is set to Off by doing the following:

  1. Press the Menu key on the control panel.
  2. Press the Up or Down Arrow key until Fax appears on the LCD. Then, press OK.
  3. Press the Up or Down Arrow key until Remote Fax Opt or Advanced Fax Operation appears and press OK.
  4. Press the Up or Down Arrow key until Fwd/Page/Store or Forward/Store appears and press OK.
  5. Press the Up or Down Arrow key until Off appears and press OK.
  6. If you have faxes stored in the memory, you will receive a message that reads Erase All Fax? 1. Yes 2. No.

    If you want to erase all the faxes in the memory without printing them out, press 1 (Yes) and then press Stop/Exit.

Problem with my fax Machine MFC 420CN

You can cancel a fax job that is stored and waiting in the memory.
1 For MFC-210C,
press Menu/Set, 2, 5.
For MFC-420CN,
press Menu/Set, 2, 6.
Any jobs that are waiting will appear on the LCD.
2 If you have more than one job waiting, press ▲ or ▼ to select the
job you want to cancel.
Press Menu/Set.
—OR—
If you only have one job waiting, go to Step 3.
3 Press 1 to cancel.
To cancel another job go to Step 2.
—OR—
Press 2 to exit without canceling.
4 Press Stop/Exit.

That should do it for clearing faxes you dont need you can also print off all the faxes in the memory and I believe that clears it.
Enjoy,
Lee

Scanner locked

okay, im assuming the brother all in one in the picture is what you're on about...right?!? anywayz :) basically i think it is because you have got "faxes saved in the memory" it sounds weird but the scanner locked is coming up because the scanner is not going back to its home position. if there are faxes in its memory, it means that the memory has not been cleared. to check press menu/set 9,0,1 - if the screen says "No data" means that the memory has been cleared and i don't know what to do!! if it says "Enter fax.no" means that there are faxes in the memory, in this case, the fax must be cleared of memory, (if you need the faxes, you must save them before proceeding) turning it off clears memory apparently but im assuming you've tried that countless times.Turn off the machine's power switch and then on again. If the error message continues, leave the machine for several minutes and try it again. the MFC-7820 can store memory for up to 4 days, so watch out if you have a 7820. apparently this will resolve the issue and the message should go away, hence the scanner returning to its home position!! hope this helps
