Machine shuts down when toner is low. Very frustrating!
Loved my past three or four Brother laser printers. Reliable, fast machines, few issues. And when the toner cartridge was running low on one of them, I kept printing until I decided when the print quality was too light. Only then would I replace the cartridge. This model MFCL2710DW however will not let you print when the toner goes low even though the quality of the previous print is fine. I found this workaround online and it allowed the machine to continue. This took a few tries but eventually did work:
Open front door of printer (to reveal the cartridge mechanism) and “Front Door Open” will flash on the monitor. Good.
Next, press STOP/EXIT and CLEAR at the SAME TIME(quick press)
Immediately after, press CLEAR once again.
A menu called RESET MENU will appear.
Click the DOWN ARROW until you see TNR-STD
Click OKAY
Click UP ARROW To Confirm the reset
