Check to see if the Status Monitor or the machine's control panel displays an error status. Check that the machine is online: • Windows7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 /Start > Devices and Printers . Right-click Click Brother XXX-XXXX and click See what's printing. Click Printer in the menu bar.
Difficulties Suggestions Confirm that the Brother printer driver is selected in your application's Print window. The machine prints the first couple of pages correctly, then some pages have missing text. Check the settings in your application to make sure they are set up to work with your machine. Your computer is not recognizing the full signal of the machine’s input buffer. Make sure you connected the interface cable correctly.
Home > Troubleshooting > Improve the Print Quality Improve the Print Quality If you have a print quality problem, print a test page first. If the printout looks good, the problem is probably not the machine. Check the interface cable connections and try printing a different document. If the printout or test page printed from the machine has a quality problem, check the examples of poor print quality in the table and follow the recommendations.
Examples of poor print quality Recommendation Toner specks Replace the drum unit with a new drum unit. • The fuser unit may be contaminated. Contact Brother Customer Service. In USA: 1-877-BROTHER (1-877-276-8437) In Canada: www.brother.ca/support • Select Thick Paper mode in the printer driver or use thinner paper than you are currently using. • Select the appropriate media type in the menu setting. • Check the machine’s environment. Conditions such as high humidity can cause hollow print.
Examples of poor print quality Recommendation Black spots at 3.7 in. (94 mm) intervals • If you use label sheets for laser printers, the glue from the sheets may sometimes stick to the drum surface. Clean the drum unit. See Related Information:Clean the Drum Unit. Black toner marks across the page • If you used paper that has clips or staples, the drum unit may be damaged. • If the unpacked drum unit is in direct sunlight (or room light for long periods of time), the unit may be damaged.
Examples of poor print quality Curled or wavy Recommendation • If the problem only occurs during automatic 2-sided printing, check for torn paper in the 2-sided tray. Verify the 2-sided tray is inserted completely and the back cover is closed completely. • Check the paper type and quality. High temperatures and high humidity will cause paper to curl. • If you do not use the machine often, the paper may have been in the paper tray too long. Turn over the stack of paper in the paper tray.
