The status page says "Drum Error" many times though. I'll keep you posted on what happens. I put an inquiry into Brother. In the past, I have told them something to the extent of "I bought a toner cartridge and it seems to print far too dark. I suspect it is defective" They'll return something to the extent of "Your toner seems to be defective. Buy another" I was hoping for a new cartridge that time, instead of having to adjust the density for reasonable prints, but no, they told me what I already knew. by Anonymous on Jun 24, 2007 at 6:04pm Add comment Please sign in to comment 0 I have the same problem as described above. I bought the printer less than a month ago, it worked fine until a couple of days ago, then the red printer light started flashing. I am using standard 8 1/2" x 11" paper, I have opened the front and the back, removed the cartridge, and there is no jam. I have rebooted the computer and the printer, no luck. Please advise if anyone has come up with a fix since the above messages were posted.

If the paper light is flashing (not steady) please follow the steps bellow:The Paper LED flashing can be caused by no paper in the manual feed slot, a paper jam, the front cover is open, the back cover is open, dust on the drum, a memory full error, a print overrun error or not having a drum installed.Note: Be sure that a toner AND drum assembly is installed in http://www.justanswer.com/printers/305l2-brother-printer-hl-2040-s-paper-light-blinking-it-s.html the machinebefore continuing. A machine may exhibit a jam message if a drum or toner isn't installed or isn't installed properly. The drum is a separate part from the toner cartridge and the two parts fit together tomake the drum and toner assembly. The problem may also happen from using non-Brother supplies.To clear the Paper LED flashing, follow the steps listed below:Brother strongly recommends that customers use only genuine Brother drumunits and/or toner cartridges. Each Brother laser printer is designed to work at pre-set temperatures that are matched exactly to each of our individual toner formulations. Each individual component is designed to work with the other to ensure quality and reliability. Using non-Brother supplies may affect the hardware performance, print qualityand machine reliability. The Brother limited warranty does not apply to any problem that is caused by the use of third party drum units, toner cartridges or toner.Warning: If you just used the machine some parts inside the machine are extremely hot.1. If the paper source setting of the program you are printing from or the Brother printer driver is set to Manual feed, the Paper LED will flash prompting you to load a sheet of paper, an envelope, or a label inthe manual feed slot of the printer. It can also be caused if the document you are trying to print was created as a letter, mailing, or label.2. Usi

The printer could print from the manual tray and could also print test or diagnostic pages. So I thought it might be driver related, and indeed it was. There's a nasty setting in the printer properties that makes the printer go woo-hoo. So go to printer properties > tray settings. Check the "paper size" of "Tray 1". If it's set to "undefined", change it to your corresponding paper format. Click Update, Apply. Now print happily. I still wonder why that
