Are you sure the driver is set to A4 paper and not Letter Size. Letter size is the default. Letter size being larger than A4 would mean the print would be off the bottom so you wont see it. Could be as simple as that.

hello sir. maybe your printer is not yet set as default. try to go to your desktop, then select CONTROL PANEL. Double click PRINTER AND FAXES. there you will see all printer that are connected to your PC. if you see your printer on the list, right-click the icon then select SET AS DEFAULT PRINTER. if the selected printer is already your default. and still wont print. right-click again the icon and select USE PRINTER ONLINE. If your CONTROL PANEL does not displayyour printer icon. you can select ADD PRINTER at printer task. then just follow the procedures. hope this helps

If the printer is not printing, check the cables connecting the printer and the computer. Make sure it is properly connected. Check the settings on your computer if printer is set as a default printer and try printing a test page from the driver page. To do this open printer and faxes, right click on the printer >properties and click the button print test page.

If you are able to print a test page, check the settings of your application and make that the correct printer is selected.

1. Verify USB cable is connected directly from USB port of printer and the USB port on back of computer. If not, connect directly to both the printer and computer and try to print. If the printer does not print, go to step 3.
2. VERIFY THAT THE BROTHER PRINTER IS SET AS DEFAULT
This is especially important if you use the print icon to print from within applications. If the Brother printer is set as the default printer, it will have a check mark. If it is not set as default:

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. Please check that your printer has paper, has no paper jams and is currently set on the ‘use printer online’ settings by right clicking property and then setting it from there. Also please check that you have selected the correct default printer and drivers in the printer options. If there is any paper jams clear it. You can also check the few things like---
Please check that both ends of the cable which connects the printer to the computer are connected properly. To print a test page right click on printer properties and then click the 'Print Test Page' button and see if you get a test page printed properly. If you do, this indicates that the printer is properly connected to the computer and the computer has the drivers installed.


Please do rate the solution and revert for further assistance.


Thanks

Could be a couple things, but if the test page prints it always means software/driver issue. If you're sure the driver is correct, here are some things I would check.

1. Is acrobat reader installed? Quickbooks prints some things to and from PDF to the printer.
2. Are you using a PCL driver on a PS printer or vice versa. Many applications, websites, etc require postscript.
3. What default printer have you set, Windows will print to the default printer from applications but a specific printer when making a test page and you could be printing to MS imaging accidently.
