Problem with Brother DCP-J125Unable to init 4f

Not only the absorber must be cleaned, also the counter must be reset. I know there is a program for older Epson printers to reset the counter. I found a reset procedure for a brother printer here: How to Reset Purge Counter on Brother DCP J315W Printer Perhaps you can fine one for yours?

It is a new cartridge and you have cone all you can do. You have a bad print head. Sorry. Replaceable item but expensive to the point where often it is better to just get a new printer rather than replace that part.

Access the internal maintenance mode by pressing the Menu/Set button, then press * 2 8 6 4 within 2 seconds. This should put you in the maintenance mode menu. Enter 80, and then scroll down with the arrow down (round) key. You'll find an entry listed as purge count. If number is over 6000, enter 2 7 8 3. This will reset the purge count value. Then the printer will restart, hopefully without the annoying cannot clean message. Some times this happens because of using cheap compatible ink cartridges if this is the case change the ink cartridges.

Could be the print head / PCB problem.

The flat cable of the scanner might not be connected properly, check it if you have taken it off earlier.
