Is this error appearing because you upgraded to Windows 10? (because you didn't mention what OS)

Have you tried downloading newer drivers for this printer? A Brother, right?

Check out their page here... and note at the bottom of the page where it reads "Information"

from the page:

Windows? 10 Compatibility
Windows? 8.1 drivers are most likely to work on Windows? 10 without any change. Currently Brother is verifying that the Windows? 8.1 drivers work with Windows? 10.

If you upgrade from Windows?7 or Windows?8.1 to Windows?10, some features of the installed drivers and software may not work correctly. Please uninstall all drivers and software in Windows?7 or Windows?8.1 before upgrading to Windows?10.

If you are not able to print or scan after upgrading to Windows?10, reinstall the drivers by referring to the FAQ below.
