STEP 1:
Check the status of your Brother machine
-Make sure that your Brother machine is turned on.
-Check if the LCD display or LED indication of your Brother machine is not showing some error. If an error is displayed, go to the Troubleshooting section and find a solution.

 STEP 2:
Check the connection of your Brother machine and the computer
-Try disconnecting and reconnecting the USB cable on from both ends. Disconnect both your Brother machine and the computer and reconnect.

-We recommend that the USB cable you use supports the following specifications:
 --> twisted pair cable
 -->shielded
 -no longer than 6 feet long (2 meters)

STEP 3:
Check the printer driver settings
-Click Start => Devices and Printers.
-->Open the Control Panel. (Click here to see how to open the Control Panel.)
