Have you tried

1. Taking out all the cartridges
2. Power down the power
3. Power up the printer
4. Open the scanner Cover
5. Close the scanner cover
6. Message will ask you to put the ink.
7. Put in Black
8. Close scanner cover
9. It may ask you whether the Black is being changed.
10. Open the cover.
11. Install Cyan.
12. Repeat step 8-10 for the rest of the 2 colours.
13. It should resolve the Black ink empty message.

Let us know if this works.

Thank you.

The only way is to set Grayscale Printing in the Printer Properties for DCP 110C. 

I myself prints black only using this printer. Doing the above setting will minimize ( not prevent ) the usage of colour inks.

But take note that the colour ink will deplete itself matter of time.

the channels for the ink to flow are really minute [small] if ink dries up in them it can take some time to soften it up before anything will flow. try deep cleaning the printhead.

I solved my problem - bought new printer.

Sometimes a cart doesnt work well because of mal manufacturing. Put in another brandnew black cart and do the cleaning cycle again. Its an advantage to use genuine brother carts! If you dont have any success try this: press menu then start/mono (b/w) then four times arrow up. maintenance should be displayed and the printer beeps. press arrow up til 7 is displayed. press enter. press arrow up til 6 in display. press enter. Display: Cleaning_All. press arrow up til 3 then enter: power_p all. Press start mono. machine starts power cleaning. After maintenance is displayed press arrow up til 0 (zero) then enter then 9 then enter. machine prints print quality sheet. In case there are only a few blocks in black repeat the above procedure. If you doesnt see neither any blocks in bk nor text after the second try be sure that your printhead is clogged and cant be cleaned anymore. This happens due to thirdparty ink which has pigmented ink instead of dye ink. Use only dye ink for brother printers!!!

You need to reset the purge counter. (How many times it has cleaned)

Here's how...

1. Press 'menu', 'mono start' then 'menu' one by one...
2. Press the arrow up or down to go to 'maintenance 80'.
3. Press 'mono start' several times to go to 'Purge'. Finding the PURGE will show some numeric value which is I assume the number of times the printer had cleaned.
4. Press 'arrow up' key and scroll for number "2" then press "set". Do the same for numbers 7, 8 and 3. After you have entered this combination, the purge numeric value will be reseted to 00000.

Here's a link to the Support Site for your printer where you can download the User's Manual.

Look to see what brand of printer you have, then go to the "downloads" section of the manufacturer's website.

Most of them have the necessary drivers to download for free.
