I don't have an answer but the one posted on February 18th by the Wales flag guy/Clive/Pineworks worked for me. Just don't forget to hit 99 after you've done everything or you'll be stuck in maintenance mode.
When replacing the toner cartridge, you MUST install
a brand new, unused genuine Brother toner cartridge in order to reset
the toner status. Swapping toner cartridges from one machine to another
or installing a partially used toner cartridge may cause this problem.
Brother machines control their image quality for the most suitable print
quality by monitoring toner consumption. If you install a partially
used toner cartridge, your Brother machine is unable to recognize toner
consumption correctly which will cause this problem. Therefore, when you
replace the toner cartridge, please use a brand new toner cartridge,
not a partially used toner cartridge from another machine.
The machine has either a mechanical problem or there is something in the machine such as a paper clip or scrap paper.open up machine and inspect it. use compressed air if needed to clean everything out. If this does not work then unplug for 5 minutes and then re-power on and see if it comes back if so you will need service on it.here you will find user guide to further assisthttp://www.brother-usa.com/ModelDocuments/Consumer/Users%20Manual/UM_MFC_J220_J265w_J410w_EN_2577.PDF
When installing the cartridges, it is important
that you insert them from left to right with the black cartridge first and the magenta cartridge last. The reason for this is
because the magenta cartridge has a clip on top of it that goes into the
cartridge door sensor. The clip needs to push the sensor in
so the printer is able to function with the cartridge door open. If you
insert the magenta cartridge first, the printer will think the cartridge
door is closed and you will get a error message for the other missing
cartridges.

On most color machines emptying the waste toner cartridge isn't an issue because the auger system dumps it into the waste toner. The brother machines before this a different way and have a cleaning blade in them. This blade wears out over time and needs to be replaced. Those waste toners last forever in that machine so your better off just replacing it. Other wise you probably are going to make a huge mess just to have problems once you get it back together.
