Printing worked fine yesterday. Today, when I try to print, it does NOTHING. If I try a test print, it works perfectly. I've unplugged both the USB cord and the power cord, waited 30 seconds and tried again. Nothing, I've restarted the computer. In order to shut the computer down, it made me uninstall Microsoft One Drive. Could that be it?

It could be one of the reasons. *****, have you tried to factory reset the printer?

I don't know how.

Did it. The Ready light was flashing during all 10 presses on the Go button,

Try to print something and then me the result.

Customer Replay

Nothing happens. All of a sudden it printed. Don't know why.

The Factory reset have worked.

Thanks so much for your help.

I'm facing a frustrating issue with my brother printer. It won't respond to print commands from my computer, even after trying different troubleshooting methods 😕

My Brother printer had a similar printing problem, but I managed to solve it by reinstalling the printer drivers and checking the connectivity.
