If you Brother laser printer, fax machine or all-in-one printer has stopped working then it
will probably be displaying an error message. These error messages are there to help
you troubleshoot your Brother machines fault and can help us assist you in resolving the
problem. All Brother printers, fax machines and all-in-ones’ error messages are shown
on their LCD display and show the word ‘error’, ‘error code’ or ‘machine error’ followed
by an action (for example ‘Replace Laser Unit’) or an alphanumeric code. The
alphanumeric code is used by looking up the relevant description in the user manual.
We’ve put together what we think are the most common Brother error codes with an
explanation of what they mean and what to do. We hope that you find it helpful, but if
you’re still stuck then use our price finder to discover the cost to repair your machine. -
