Why does my Brother Laser printer not feed paper?
If your Brother Laser printer does not feed paper, ensure that the paper in the paper tray is straight. If the paper is curled, straighten it before printing. Sometimes, removing the paper, turning the stack over, and then putting it back in the paper tray can help. If the paper continues to curl, replace the paper. Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again. Make sure that manual feed mode is not chosen in the printer driver. Clean the paper pick-up roller.
