Why Won't My Printer Turn On?

I had printed some photos on my Brother MFC-290C printer. When I went to scan another photo I noticed that the display on the front of the printer was blank (like when it is off). I had not pressed the power button. I tried turning it back on by pressing the power button but nothing happened. Then I checked to make sure the power cord wasn't loose (it wasn't). As that didn't solve the problem I tried plugging it into two different power points. Still won't turn on. Is there a way to reset the printer or get it to turn on?
