imageCLASS MF113w won't print

[Trygve]

I just received a MF113w printer a couple days ago. The first thing I sent to it from my android tablet printed very fast. When I sent the second part, it would not print, error code 822. It seems that there is nothing wrong with the printer, it just doesn't like what I sent to it. The problem is I don't know what to do to make it print. I don't care if it's the wrong format or whatever, I just want it to print whatever I send to it. I tried sending something else, and same error code. Everything I sent was PDF. I just got this thing, and it pissed me off already. Please can anyone tell me in simple terms, what to do, or how to make this printer print anything and everything I send to it, no error code, just print it. I'm to old for this crap, I wish I had a teenager to make it work. When I was a teenager all we had was a black and white TV, no remote, no computer, no cell phones, no phone at all, we had to walk down the street to a dial payphone.

Greetings,

Where are you seeing this error?  On the printer or the device you are printing from?

Asking because I don't find reference for error 822

My mf113W printer did not print either. It worked nromal in the past. Today I sent it to Office Max store for checking scan alignment error. I do not know what the guy tried on printer setting. Coming back it could not print. I redo network setting and everything is fine (showed "Connected") and reinstalled drive on my computer, it still could not print. The scaner is working and can send the file to computer. Copy is working as normal. But always show "print error" on my computer. I did not check the error code on printer.
