Hi Nicolas, please becarefull when using service mode it is really not a place anyone should be playing in as you have found out it can render machines useless.. So enter service mode by pressing menu * 2 8 6 4 very fast... machine should display maintence.. then once you see maintence press 7 and then 4, the present code is then displayed (your wrong code is probally 0001 usa, or 1004 denmark/netherland), .. Now enter in correct code for a mfc9320CW in Netherlands its 0209, or 0201 for USA, or 0213 denmark, I gave you a few because I dont know what country you are in..then press ok, the machine will save the setting and displays parameter init, the machine should then beep and return to maintence mode, to exit mainence key in 99. Let me know how you go or if I guess wrong your countryCheers Soulvisitor

Hi there

Error 41 means there is a major problem with the printhead, usually
requires a print head replacement.
My advice is to take it to a
Brother service centre while if it is under warranty.
If it's out of warranty they are usually a throw away job, the heads cost as much as the printer.

Sorry I know what it feels like, just have a go and see what you can do, clean the heads and so on.

All the Best and good luck: Pineworks

The only way to diagnose is to remove covers and trace the noise to the source. It will be a nylon cog that has jammed, moved or become worn. https://www.google.com/search?q=Brother+MFC-L8690CDW+Laser+Printer.+The+scanner+is+making+a+clicking%2Frattling+noise ..

You can reset the toner cartridges via the printer's menu.

• if an error message appears on the LCD display, press the Cancel (X) button to show the main menu.
• Press the Fax button to make the numeric keypad visible. Then, locate and only locate the Asterisk (Star) button on the numeric keypad. It is important to remember its location as it will not be lit up later when needed.
• Press the Home button to return to the main menu.
• Open the front cover of the printer (to access cartridges).
• With the front cover open, press and hold the unlit Asterisk (Star) button for 5 seconds.

• Scroll through the menu to select a color and yield to reset.
• The LCD will read "Accepted" once the reset is complete.

Try scanning at a lower DPI setting. The machine is only rated to a certain DPI which is how much information it can handle per inch. Lower the DPI the more pixilated an image you get becomes when blown up but unless you are planning on printing 6/4 photos in A3 size then 600-1200 DPI is plenty.

The scanner unit is faulty or the flat harness was not fitted properly to the main board.
