Try to reset your printer or reinstall the drivers. Also check out that you've installed them correcty. For troubleshooting try to search for a solution in MFC 495cw users manual

Brother mfc-495cw left idle for a long time. now won't print

Please notice that you will destroy the C/Y/M part of the print head because the ph needs the ink to prevent a dryout!!!

Simply stick some adhesive tape around the window in the middle between the ink-outlet and the valve. The flag inside signals the printer the ink level.Still having Problem Then follow Us For

My Printer will not print black. MFC 495cw. There is a new cartridge. I ran the cleaning with no success.

The following may work: remove all the ink supplies. Remove the printhead and soak it for about 5 minutes in 0.5" of very hot water. Gently blot the printhead on a soft damp paper towel to remove the excess water, then replace in the printer and then reinstall the ink supplies.

I installed a new black ink cartridge(lc61bk) on a brother mfc-495cw and now nothing is printing.

Check out if you've installed it correctly. Also check out other ink cartridges, are they empty? If yes you won't be able to print anything. However, if all ink cartridges are OK then try to reset the printer or reinstall the drivers. You can find help in MFC 495cw users manual

Installed new blk ink cart and others are all o.k. Will not print black at all - if I use the color button or try to print from the computer in color, words come out very light and other colors are not...

I assume that you inserted an new OEM black cartridge. If you are using aftermarket of refilled cartidges, change to an OEM cartridge.
- Press on the printer
- Press of and select
- Press of to choose , or
- Press
- The machine cleans the printerhead and goes back to the Ready screen when finished.
If you clean the head 5 times and things don't improve, the printer should be serviced at a printer service center.
If you are using aftermarket or refilled cartridges the ink is typically not up to manufacter specifications and can gum up the printheads.

My mfc-240c won't print red, even with a new cartdrige.

Try running a few cleanings on the color.

Press the ink button and select cleaning,, do about five cleanings. Print the ink quality test page (from the ink button as well) and see the quality if it improved.

If it still doesnt print its possible the ink is clogged and may need servicing to replace the printer head
