Cause
The ink absorber box is full. These
components are periodic maintenance
items that may require replacement
after a period of time to ensure optimum
performance from your Brother
machine. Because these components
are periodic maintenance items, the
replacement is not covered under the
warranty. The need to replace these
items and the time period before
replacement is dependent on the
number of purges and flushes required
to clean the ink system. These boxes
acquire amounts of ink during the
different purging and flushing
operations. The number of times a
machine purges and flushes for
cleaning varies depending on different
situations. For example, frequently
powering the machine on and off will
cause numerous cleaning cycles since
the machine automatically cleans upon
power up. The use of non-Brother ink
may cause frequent cleanings because
non-Brother ink could cause poor print
quality which is resolved by cleaning.
The more cleaning the machine
requires, the faster these boxes will fill
up.
Repairs resulting from the use of
non-Brother supplies may not be
covered under the stated product
warranty.
The machine has a mechanical
problem.
Action
The ink absorber box must be
replaced. Contact Brother
customer service or your local
Brother Authorised Service Centre
to have your machine serviced.
Disconnect the machine from the
power for several minutes, and
then reconnect it.
