The machine has a mechanical problem.

Turn the power switch off, wait a few minutes, and then turn it on again.

The "Unable 71" error message on your Brother HL-6180DW printer typically indicates a problem with the laser unit or its associated components. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Turn off the printer and unplug it from the power source.
  2. Open the front cover and remove the drum and toner assembly.
  3. Look for any paper jams or foreign objects inside the printer and remove them carefully.
  4. Check the laser unit and its associated components for any damage, such as a broken or dislodged wire. If you find any damage, you may need to replace the affected part.
  5. Clean the corona wire by sliding the green tab back and forth several times.
  6. Reinstall the drum and toner assembly and close the front cover.
  7. Plug in the power cord and turn on the printer.

If the "Unable 71" error message persists after completing these steps, you may need to contact Brother customer support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or recommend a repair service if necessary.
