Brother HL 5250 red light flashing
I found this solution on the web-- Hope it helps.
The HL-2070N gets stuck in a toner end-of-life error condition. Perform the following to clear :
With paper loaded, new toner in,
Open front door
Turn off printer
While holding down the GO button, turn printer back on
When all four LEDs light up release GO button. All LEDs will turn off
Press the GO button 2 times. The 3 LEDs (toner, drum, paper) will light up solid
Press the GO button 5 times
Paper light will be blinking
At this point the toner end-of-life condition has been reset. Close front door.
BTW, I got this from Brother Support. Also, just a reminder, timing is important here so don't pause between button presses.
Green Light on and the fan is going, I tried pressing the go button but nothing.
What is going on?
Same problem. Green light on steady. Fan on. Computer says it printed. Printer does absolutely nothing.
Tried everything cannot seem to get it to print
i am having the same problem, cannot seem to get it to work at all
My problem is the same, however a couple more things noticed. It appears the printer goes into a printing mode and then can not back back out. If I delete the printer from the printer area of the comp after unplugging power and usb from comp. Then plug printer back in and power up. Right after installs driver and is ready for use, the Brother printer tool finds the printer and gives the info needed. Start to print test page or hardware test page and can no longer communicate with printer with info tool. So seems is stuck trying to print even though comp sees print job as complete. Fan stays on, green LED did blink indicating received data, goes solid indicating done, but nothing printed.
Also noticed if pull the toner out, and power cycle the printer, it notices that the toner is missing and LED's light accordingly. but if close door without putting in toner, green LED lights up as if ready but since no toner it most def is not. if dont power cycle can open door and no error (Red Paper LED) occurs as would normally either.
Seems to be a sensor or something broken hardware wise, but cant find a service manual to show me where to start looking. As switch toner, drum unit to second Brother printer, all works fine, and none of the same effects.
