Hi, .inf are product information files and tells the computer the specific brand/model and drivers needed for your all-in-one and are OS specific. They are normally found inside a folder named DRIVER with other files such as .cab, .dll, .sys, etc. The installer sometimes compresses all of these files in an .exe, .zip or .rar to reduce file sizes. Double clicking on the download compressed/installer will expand or auto-install. Your download must match the brand/model of the all-in-one and your operating System, XP, Vista etc. Your drivers/installers may be found here > welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/us/us/en/dlf/download_top.html?reg=us&c=us&lang=en&prod=mfc8420_us Hope this be of some help to you. Pls post again how things turn up or if we can be of further assistance. Cheers.

I had to replace an ink cartridge, and now when I try and print, the printer takes actions as though it is completing a print job, but all of the pages come out blank.

Did you take off the seal on the cartridge before installing it. Also do a print test page and a cartridge clean. Try that out also restart the printer by unplugging from the wall not the computer and plug back in then restart the printer again. Thanks for using FixYa! John
