I think you mean a DR350.
1. Install the new drum and wait for it to display the "replace drum" error.
2. Open the front cover of the printer as if to change the toner out. The printer will read cover is open.
3. Press the clear/back button or just clear. The printer will say "replace drum?
4. press the 1 button and the printer will read "accepted".
5. Turn the printer off then on again to fully clear the error. Upon restarting the printer you'll be good to go.
What kind of tablet, can you turn it off, have you tried holding down the power button until it shut off? We are going to need a little more information to help you with this.
You havent reset the drum counter on the printer. Simply open the front cover, and hold the "GO" button until all four LED's are lit. Release the "GO" button and close the front cover.
You either have a piece of paper stuck in it somewhere (usually in the fuser on this model) or the flag is broken (usually again on the fuser output). Check the fuser carefully to make sure there is no paper in it and that the flag is intact. It is possible the PCB is bad but more likely there is paper in it or a broken flag. You can drop the back door and see if there is a piece stuck or if the flag is there.
1: open the back door and check for paper.
2: If no paper is present pull down on the output assemble and check for paper there.
3: When you pull down on the fuser output you should see a long thin piece of plastic sticking up in the middle.
If you do not see the flag then it is likely broken. Replacing the printer is cheaper than replacing the output flag unless you have a parts printer hanging around. Good luck and let us know what you find!
These instructions show two ways to reset the toner count ( to install a used toner in printer or get more life out of a cartridge the printer says is empty)
please note that using refilled toner cartridges, non genuine toners and using the 'extra' 10% all have been shown to reduce drum life and prematurely degrade print quality.
you may need these techniques though if you have tried a new toner in a machine to diagnose and then want to install it in another machine.
The first method is to reset the mechanical flag on the left hand end of the toner cartridge. when you first install a toner the printer turns the toner drive gear which moves this flag from the back to the forward position (towards the toner roller).
the flag is the white rectangular bit pointed out by the yellow arrow in the photo
In this photo the position of the flag shows that this cartridge has been previously installed in a printer.
you can undo three screws (red arrows in photo) and reposition the flag in the start position.
be careful to observe the way the gears are installed.
one technician I know just used a flat blade screwdriver to force the flag back to its home position ( to the right) without undoing the screws. seemed to work for him.
the second method is to
1. open the toner door
2. turn printer off
3. hold down go button
4. turn on power while holding go
5. hold down go button for 4-5 seconds untill all lights come on and one goes out
6. press go twice then wait 2 seconds
press go 5 times
printer should power cycle and show itself as ready
Not sure what you mean by "licking sound during startup"
As for the Toner not reading most often this is caused by the toner cartridge being empty. Try replacing your toner cartridge. If you have recently changed the cartridge it may not have triggered the Toner Reset microswitch. The reset gears on the side of the cartridge will need to be changed back to the ready position. If it is an OEM cartridge then take it back to the place you bought it from and they can replace it and send it back to brother. If it is a remanufactured cartridge then take it back to where you got it from and they can reposition the gears for you.
Not reading the paper can be because there is no paper in the machine or the paper feed system is worn and needs to be replaced.
Hello, you need to reset the Drum Unit life:
After changing a DR2000 drum unit in a Brother HL-2040, the printer's page count needs to be reset. This will turn off the drum warning light on the printer.
Simply open the front cover, and hold the "GO" button until all four LED's are lit. Release the "GO" button and close the front cover.
The drum counter in the printer needs to be reset. With the machine powered on, open the front hatch and then hold down the button on the front left side until ALL the lights are on. release the button and close the hatch. The drum count will have been reset to 0 and your printer will talk to you again.
Go into print settings and make sure the dpi is set. if it is, try setting it one way and back to your previous setting. It worked for me.
(My case: Lexmark E250DXL, Excel 365, Win 7 N)
IF YOUR DARING.)
