Brother Mfc 210c Troubleshooting
Please help. My Brother MFC 210c has already been through 2 printheads. Now I have a new problem, machine error 46. I found out through this forum that the ink waste pads were full, so I opened it up and squeezed out all the excess ink, then put it all back together. I called Brother for additional help because it still reads 'Unable to Clean', and when I put it into maintenance, I still have 'Machine Error 46'. All they would tell me is I need to reset the purge counter, and this can only been done at the service center. I'm not spending any more money on this printer, since it's past the 24 month warranty period. Any Brother techs or experts out there that can help me? Thanks for looking! PS: Many people have asked for instruction and pictures for opening up the MFC 210c, and I found them in this forum under this link. http://www.enderlin-direkt.com/news/faq_inside.html#Brother_mfc215c Very, very helpful (shows how to remove the printhead), but you have to translate the page into english, and then figure it out with the translation the best you can. I only wish there were an english version.
