Hi, some help please.
Printer suddenly stopped working, ie printing docs on file/saved, (copies OK).
I removed the printer/drivers (with printer turned on), reinstalled from Brother site. It appears as default printer again, and shows as 'ready'. Tried to print document, and test page. Green bar flicks across screen as though it is doing it, but nothing. No print jobs are showing in the print queue. Any ideas please

Printer will print a test page if I select the option to do so on the printer itself, (not using the computer screen options)

    Blimey - cured it myself. It seems that the last W10 update did something to Brother printers. I downloaded the 1909 W10 update from MS and hey presto. Pretty impressed with myself !
