SOURCE: brother 165c clean unable 46, See Trouble shooting

Error 46 on Brother printers The printer must be reset:

  • Press menu then*2864 within 2 seconds and press 80.
  • Keep pressing black/mono start button until screen displays 'purge count'.
  • Press 2783 to reset purge count.
  • Press stop/exit key
  • Press 99
  • The printer should return to normal
OR Resetting purge counter:

1) Enter machine maintenance mode (on MFC210C all four photo/copy/fax/scan lights flash in maintenance mode). Care is needed in maintenance mode, otherwise critical settings may be inadvertently corrupted.

FAX models with numerical keypads: Press the Menu/Set, *, 2, 8, 6 and 4 keys within two seconds. (if you fail to complete the correct key sequence within two seconds, press the Stop key to try again).

Other (non-FAX) models: Press the Menu/Set and Black Start keys. Next press the "up arrow" key four times to enter the maintenance mode).

2) Press the 8 then 0 keys in the initial stage of the maintenance mode to call up the machine's log information list (function code 80).

3) Press the Black Start key several times to scroll through the log information list to reach the purge counter. The purge counter is the 25th item in the list.

4) Press the 2, 7, 8, and 3 keys in this order to reset the purge count to zero.

5) Press the Stop/Exit key to return to the initial stage of the maintenance mode.

6) Press the 9 key twice to return to the standby state.

This will reset the purge count value. Then the printer will restart,
try this step by step.without missing any thing. thanks
