Brother MFC210c Repetitive Paper Jam
Hello Elihu10,
Your paper jam may be caused by either a small piece of paper stuck in the paper path, or more likely during the moving process the removable rear paper path piece was somehow knocked loose and is not fully seated and locked into place. It has 2 tabs on it, just squeeze the tabs and remove this item from the printer, check for any obstructions, then just push it back into place. Hopefully it is now all fixed!
Good Luck!

How do I remove and replace the ink absorber pad/tank on my Brother MFC - J220
The ink absorber tank is buried deep within the machine, and in Brother's terms a "non user replaceable item".
If you fancy a challenge, you need to remove the upper cover of the machine and the tank is located on the right hand side, just in fornt of the ink cartridge unit. If your machine has a document feeder, this needs to be removed first by lifting the little "hatches" that hide the wires to/from the reader, and disconnecting the wires. Once the hatch on the left hand side has been lifted, this ,also allows the support strut to be unclipped. The doc feeder can then be hinged right back at which point it can be lifted off its hinges.
Brother state that the hoses which connect to the maintance unit (the clever bit that does all the head cleaning business) to the tank "must" be replaced as well. In my expereince, so long as you're careful when removeing them from the old tank and connecting them to the new one, they don't leak.
I don't bother replacing the tank - I pull out the ink-soaked padding (carefully as it drips everywhere) and then put some sponge or thick paper towel in instead. Make sure you put tape over the hole once you're finished in case ink spashes out.
Slow printing
Check that the default setting for print quality on your printer driver hasn't been set to "Fine".
In your Opertaing System, find your printer (in XP it's under Control Panel / Printers and Faxes) and select Properties. This should then bring up the settings for the driver.
Fine printing quality takes over double the time "Normal" quality takes so would considerably slow your printing.
SLOW PRINTING
some brother are set for slow print for photos etc check yours to see if the setting is correct
Waste tank
good day! please go to the nearest service center or technician, you printer need a general cleaning, need to replace their sponge in the waste tank, to avoid overflow, it may cause damage of the internal parts of your printer, like the sensor.
Install cyan
That message is saying you need to replace the blue "Cyan" ink cartridge in the printer. When the printer detects that the ink in out it tells you to replace the empty one to continue printing. Just buy a new cartridge install it and you will be good to go.
Unable to clean
Do you mean the automatic cleaning option the printer has? Does the printer have a removable print head? If so, you must remove the print head and clean it by letting it sit in a bath of rubbing alcohol or running cold water into it for several minutes. Let dry and reinstall. Or you may need to replace the print head. The nozzles are probably clogged. Does the print job seem abnormal?
