The Status Monitor will report problems with the printer. Take the corrective actions
listed in the following table for the error message that the Status Monitor reports.
Error message Action
COVER OPEN
• Close the front cover of the printer.
MEMORY FULL
• Press the control panel button to print the data remaining in the
printer.
• Reduce the print resolution or reduce the complexity of your
document.
(For HL-1440, HL-1450 and HL-1470N Users)
• Expand the printer memory by adding a commercially available
SIMM memory. See “Installing Additional Memory” in Chapter
4.
NO PAPER or
MISFEED
• The paper cassette may be out of paper or not properly
installed. If it is empty, load a new stack of paper into the paper
cassette.
• If there is paper in the paper cassette, make sure it is straight.
If the paper is curled, straighten it before printing. Sometimes it
is helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over and put it
back in the paper cassette.
• Reduce the amount of paper in the paper cassette, and then try
again.
• Make sure you use paper that meets Brother’s recommended
paper specifications. See “What Kind of Paper can I Use?” in
Chapter 1.
PAPER JAM
• See “Paper Jams and How to Clear Them“ in this chapter.
PRINT OVERRUN
• Press the control panel button to print the data remaining in the
printer.
• If this does not clear the error, reduce the complexity of your
document or reduce the print resolution.

• Expand the printer memory by adding a commercially available
SIMM. See “Installing Additional Memory” in Chapter 4. Set
