Hello,

It is possible that the printer is not selected as your default printer: double click the printer in the control panel and see if there's a v-mark for selection for this printer.

When having the MFC240c as default printer and the device still isn't working: The driver installed on the computer, for communication with the printer, could be not working correctly.
For a new installation for drivers on the computer you must be logged in as a user having administrator rights.
When not having the CD for reinstallation, go to the support site for a download of the drivers and software:
http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/BSC/public/us/us/en/model_top/colormfc/mfc240c_all.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc240c_all

0. Get a download from the support link above.
1. Before reinstallation disconnect the printer; disconnect the USB cable.
2. Remove the printer icon from the control panel: delete the printer before reinstalling drivers and software.
3. Install the drivers and software.

When needing more help, just add a comment in this thread.

Are they genuine Brother ink cartridges? Some Brother models won't accept generic or non-OEM ink. Try replacing them with genuine Brother cartridges.

The solution for this one's an easy fix. All you have to do is go to brother, click on Product Support, select your country or the nearest one to you, then where it says please enter your model name type in mfc-240c and hit enter. Click where it says MFC-240C and then go to downloads, select drivers, then your operating system, and then your language, and finally, click search. It will bring you to the page with teh drivers for your printer. In the downloads area, you can also download the manuals, the software for your printer, etc.. It's all quite well laid out. Let me know if you run into any problems.
