Edwin, I checked the Brother specs for MFC-7420. It has a parallel interface as well as the USB. Try the parallel. My Brother HL-1440 printer wouldn't work with USB interface, but it works well with the parallel. Until someone figures out the problem with USB and Brother printers, I suggest the parallel interface as a work-around.
