Brother HL-5440D Reset Fuser Counter

[livewire]

Hi guys,

I have a question for you.
How to reset the fuser counter?
In the service manual I could not find procedure.
Fuser was changed during the warranty, but not reset.
He has done 60K prints.

Thank you.

Is it giving you an error?

No, there is no error.
The printer is working.
Only recorded errors in the error history. Also there are status monitor message to replace the fuser and laser.

I think, I need PJL file.

Regards.

Brother uses a software utility to reset the counters for machines without an led display. The utility is called brmainte. Google it for download sites.

You dont need a pjl file with brmainte. Connect the machine to a pc open the program select input information from the menu select your model and there should be a list of functions. One will be reset fuser count.

Partially correct. For LED models you actually need a specific file and software program.

LED model
(1) Open the front cover. Press and hold the[Go] button, and turn ON the powerswitch of the machine. Check that theBack Cover, Toner, Drum, Paper andError LEDs light, and release the [Go]button. Check that all LEDs go out, andthen press the [Go] button for at leasttwo seconds. The Paper LED lights, andthe machine enters maintenance mode.

(2) Connect the computer to the machine with the USB cable.(3) Double-click "FILEDG32.EXE" on the computer to start it, and select the "BrotherMaintenance USB Printer".(4) Drag and drop the periodic parts resetting PJL file onto the "Brother Maintenance USBPrinter" icon.(5) Turn OFF the power switch of the machine.

if you don't have the file. then it is time to contact brother to get the correct file needed. if you load an incorrect file you can brick a machine.
