Brother DCP-135C Flatbed Digital MFC All-In-One InkJet Printer - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

It appears that one can purchase the black cartridge separately from the colour cartridges. But your Brother machine is designed to stop ALL printing operations when any of the ink cartridges are empty. In that case you would need to replace all ink cartridges that are empty in order to resume printing.

Refer its user manual for details. It is not practical to type in all the procedure here by this window. Electro help

One of the paper sensor is faulty and cam is jammed.

specific functions only will be given

Several probable causes of this.

1. Your Black is empty and the printer is trying to approximate the Black using the other colours. Check and replace Black.
2. Your Black printhead is blocked and all you are seeing is the other colours that are used to make the black into a full black. Check cartridge and do a printhead clean to see if this clears it. Also print off a print quality test sheet (In the Ink Management options on the printer)
3. Another colour has been put into the Black Slot on your printer. Replace the incorrect cartridge and hope that the printhead has not been damaged by using the wrong cartridge. May need several printhead cleans to clear incorrect ink from the feed lines.

Hope this helps.

Run the head cleaner on the maintenance menu.

PLEASE REST THE PRINTER

i was came into this as well when looking to buy a printer. after doing some research, from what i can tell the MFC printer/scanners have fax capabilites where the DCP do not. there might be a few other functions the MFC's have the DCP's don't, but Fax is the big seller
DCP stands for Digital Copier/Printer MFC stands for Multi-Function Copier/printer

They differ depending upon where you are geographically, but if by any chance you are in the UK try these: http://welcome.solutions.brother.com/bsc/public/eu/gb/en/dlf/download_top.html?reg=eu&c=gb&lang=en&prod=dcp135c_eu_asOtherwise you can get all drivers for all regions from here: http://solutions.brother.com/Hope this helps.

I would recommend downloading the drivers for your particular operating system directly from Brothers website. You can get them from here.

Silly as it sounds, you may need to but a printer cable; they are universal to most printers and a little too expensive if you ask me. Manufacturers knock 10 dollars off the top cost of the printer you buy only for you to spend another 20 buying this cable, my advice is to ask people you know with printers if the have any extra cables around; people don't usually throw those away.

The flaw in your printer is mechanical, I suggest you take it with a technician.Well, first, find out if there is nothing stuck or broken at a glance

Ink absorber tank is full. You will need to have it replaced or enter service mode and reset the count (not really a good idea as it will overflow)
