If not the toner, it will be the fuser unit, these are quite expensive however, you would certainly expect it to last more than 586 pages.

Luckily you say it is only 6 months old, the best advice in this instance would be to ring Brother and get it repaired under warranty.

I appreciate this may not be the answer you seek, however I would be providing poor advice to advise anything else on a product under warranty.

Hi,

I do understand that you have got the piece of paper removed from the printer. Even after this when its still showing the same error it's for sure that there is some more bits strangled inside. Please remove the toner and then check or clean the printer thoroughly. Also remove and straighten the papers that are there in the stack.

Hope you have the manual for the same to understand how to clean the printer. I am posting the manual for your reference:

that is mean the lifetime of drum is over.
solution. replace a new.

Hi

3 issues might be the problem.

1. The toner waste compartment is full. You need to clean the toner waste compartment located in the cartridge itself.

2. Roller drum inside the cartridge have lines normally starts on both ends of the drum. This due to bulky printing. Check and replace this parts inside the toner cartridge. Manual cleaning is not advisable because the result will still the same. If you have only toner cartridge, use the roller drum and replace in place of it.

3. Faulty Toner Cartridge that cause leaking the toner powder. If you purchase remanufactured toner cartridge or you refill the toner cartridge. It tends to worn out the parts. Normally starts as roller drum and follows with the other parts. Replace new original Toner Cartridge. When you refill the toner cartridge, you need to clean the waste compartment as well as it will later be full and overflow.

Please rate and make a comment if you find this solution very helpful and might help others as well. Post more comments if you need more help.

Regards and thank you for using Fixya !

clean all the robber rollers remove any dried powder,dried powder thickens the surface of the rollers.the rollers cant turn smooth once it is thicken by dried ink then the drum will not run .do first the cleaning..remove any debris from the mechanical parts....let me hear how it goes..

It is possible that the new toner is faulty. A replacement may fix the problem. Otherwise, the printer may have a fault that results in inaccurate toner volume, etc...

In most printers there is a workaround.

You can probably navigate the menus and override the notification system.

Consult your user manual for turning off the alerts for low or empty toner.
Sometimes this is listed under "supplies" or some such verbage.

If you no longer have your manual, you may find one on brothers website under their support section.

Cheers!
