Brother DCP-330C All-In-One InkJet Printer Questions & Answers
UNABLE TO INIT. 4F ERROR
This error is associated with the self test the printer does on the print head during power-up of the printer.
Sadly, it is indicative of either a faulty print head or a faulty main control board, neither of which are easy or inexpensive to replace.
Unless you can get hold of another machine with a different fault and swap over the print head and/or board (you'll need very good skills and tools to do this) then I'm afraid the machine is beyond economic repair*.
* Brother will repair your machine but the cost will likley be more than a new one.

Enter maintenance mode
Menu. Black Start(Mono Start), Menu and Black Start(Mono Start) "Maintenance 10" will display on the LCD
I can't print out doccument,
press
"menu" "black start" and "up arrow 4 times".
that gets you into maint.
mode to be able to reset purge counter.
next enter code "80" by pressing
up/down arrows and pressing "ok".
press "black start" several times
until you see "purge count".
now press "2783" and "ok" to reset purge
count.
then press "black start" about three more times or until you see
flushing count. again, press "2783" and "ok" to reset. now hit
"stop/clear" a couple of times and press "99" to exit or use arrows to
get to "99" . at this point, you may have to press "ok" to get out of
maint. mode, but i think once you press 99 it backs out automatically.
next time this comes up however, you will need to have your ink absorber
box and flushing box replaced.
I am getting error Unable
I'm afraid there is no simple solution to this problem.
Error codes 50 and 51 refer to problems with the purging mechanism - some of the whirring and clicking noises you hear when the machine self cleans or starts up are it purging ink from the print head. Through some very clever mechanics, the machine uses the paper feed motor (running in the opposite direction to normal) to perform purging.
Possible causes listed in the Brother Service Manual for this error code range from "simple" things like a misaligned cam, to complex problems with the main control board. However, whatever it is, dismantling these machines isn't staright forward and parts are very diffciult to obtain and very, very expensive, so much so that 99 times out of a 100, it isn't cost effective to repair.
You could approach a Brother service agent, but it's highly probably that they will charge you more than buying an equivalent brand new machine.
Sorry.
