Fix Brother Printer Won't Print PDF:

Your Brother printer will not print pdf files because of memory issues or maybe an outdated printer driver. I will discuss it in detail. Follow the instructions carefully.

Reboot Your Brother Printer

If your printer is not printing PDF files then chances are its memory is cluttered, so restart your Brother printer after a few minutes of shutting down and see if the issue is resolved.

Clear the Memory

Chances are your printer's memory is almost full and it cannot distinguish between the commands. So make sure to check your printer's memory and clear it if its full.

Update Drivers

The printer basically does not have any problems with Acrobat's PDF format, so the chances are your printer driver is outdated or corrupt. go to your Vendor's website - www.brother-usa.com/brother-support and download the latest available version of the driver on to your printer.
