1. Low quality thin or thick paper or not printing on the recommended side of the paper could cause this problem. Try turning over the stack of paper in the paper tray. Make sure that you choose the Paper Type that suits the media type you are using.
   
   
2. High temperature and humidity will cause paper to curl. The Brother machine should be operated within the following ranges: temperature 50 to 90.5 F; humidity 20% to 80% without condensation.
   
   
3. If the printer is used infrequently, the paper may have sat for too long in the paper tray.
   
   
   1. Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine.
   2. Remove any paper inside the tray.
   3. Turn the stack of paper over and rotate it 180º
   4. Fan the stack of paper well and reinstall in the paper tray.
   5. Adjust the paper guides to fit the paper.
   6. Put the paper tray back into the Brother machine.
