SOURCE: machine error code 6A what that means?( Brother mfc 8440)

I argued on the phone with a BROTHER REP. that he should give the codes and directions to reset the machine, he refused time and time again, saying that this means physical damage to the machine an re-setting it is impossible to help, but i insisted, and it did fix the problem and the error went away.
here is what you should do, unplug for 10 sec. press and hold on the menu key while you plug it back in untill you see the screen "parameter init" press 99 and wait, this is what i did and it fixed the problem !!

How do I fix Machine error 6a of my Brother Printer?

This error happens when the lamp of the printer fails to sustain a certain temperature within a time limit. You can fix this error by manually entering the mode of maintenance. You can press menu for entering into the mode and then focus on the display; if it is done rightly, the light will start to blink.

Initially the machine showed a fuser error. after opening the machine moving the fuser back and forth and restarting the machine did a self diagnostic and came back with the message - "machine error,...

Press menu, start, menu and the up arrow one at a time in order. Maintenance should appear in the display. Arrow down until you see 82 and then press the menu button. A machine error number should be displayed. After getting the number press the stop key to get it out of maintenance mode. The error that is displayed will determine the problem. What number do you see?
