Why does my Brother All in One Printer say cooling down wait for a while?
- M
  Mathew GalvanSep 18, 2025
  If your Brother All in One Printer displays 'Cooling Down Wait for a while', the drum unit or toner cartridge is too hot, and the machine has paused to cool down. Ensure the fan is spinning and the exhaust outlet isn't blocked. If the fan works, clear any obstructions around the exhaust and let the machine sit powered on for several minutes. If the fan isn't spinning, disconnect and reconnect the machine to power.
