you need to use generic driver for MAC... What kind of MAC OS are you using? MAC 10 have the drivers installed on the computer and you don't need to install the software.

HI,On most Brother MFC machines it is the buttons: function, *, 2, 8, 6, 4, hit the buttons within 2 seconds and in order like push function than push *, than push 2. and on within 2 seconds.If you do this right Maintenance should show up in the display. Now press 01 which clears all memory and puts the machine back to factory default. Realize that all addresses in the fax and cover page will be gone and you will need to set it up again. Now hit 99 to leave maintenance mode and try the machine.

Try to reset DCP printers without numeric keypad.
Follow this:

1. press buttons Set, Menu, Mono Start one by one, followed by up arrow key four times. this should all be done as short a time as possible, around 3 seconds.

2. enter maintenance mode 80 by pressing the up/down arrow key and set key to select numbers 8 and 0

3. press up arrow key several times to get to the Purge item

4. enter 2, 7, 8 and 3 using arrow/set keys to reset the counter

5. press Stop/Exit key to go to root of maintenance mode

6. enter 9,9 to exit maintenance mode

Hi,

The following may work: remove all the ink supplies. Remove the printhead and soak it for about 5 minutes in 0.5" of very hot water. Gently blot the printhead on a soft damp paper towel to remove the excess water, then replace in the printer and then reinstall the ink supplies.
