How do I get my Brother HL 2040 online and to print?

SOURCE: won't print. blinking red paper light flashing

This usually means your printer is out of paper or there is a paper jam somewhere.

there is no need to buy an exclusive power cord for this Printer. any power code with the same connectors will do.

I hope this will solve your issue.

Good Luck.

If my solution proves useful please accept it.

Hi,
Sounds like a paper jam. There's a flap at the back of the printer-once open you should be able to see if the paper is stuck there. (Exactly the problem I had yesterday-I didn't spot it at first and it nearly drove me mad! :)
Good luck,
Raf
