Brother Mfc 3820cn Machine Error
But now it will not print magenta and yellow is poor. I think I may be right in think it is a problem with the print head. But how do you remove the print head? or is there somrthing else wrong? Respond to this 2 hey, i have a mfc-3220C. i was pressing the #2 key repeatedly getting annoyed, and then it said Machine Error 41, bla bla bla... seemed like i caused it by pressing too many keys to fast or something. Same thing... unplug, print once, then error... but now it errors as soon as i plug it in. i think i just pressed to many buttons... any way to reset it? on hold with brother now... this oughta be good. by unknown on Oct 12, 2004 at 3:57pm Add comment Please sign in to comment Machine error 41 is a temperature reading failure of the printhead. This is caused by a manufacturing fault in the ink although it still happens when using refilled/recycled ink. The only cure is to replace the printhead unit. This is a very fiddly job on the 890 and is best left to an engineer as the new heads property code needs to be entered into the software in the machine. Button pushing does have no bearing AT ALL on error 41. New head and new inks will cure. I can assure you of that.The Brother part number is LK0799001. Good luck - Anonymous 2 HOW TO FIX : 25 NOV 2004 SWITCH MACHINE ON WHILST HOLDING DOWN MENU/SET KEY, THIS PUTS MACHINE INTO FACTORY SETTINGS MODE. (MAINTENANCE WILL SHOW ON LCD) ENTER CODE:84 & WAIT WHILE MACHINE PERFORMS A FORCED CLEANING CYCLE. (cLEANING WILL SHOW ON DISPLAY) NOW ENTER CODE:09 & MACHINE WILL PRINT OUT ITS PRINT QUALITY CHECK SHEET. (IGNORE INSTRUCTIONS PRINTED ON CHECK SHEET) CHECK QUALITY & REPEAT BY USING CODE:84 IF NEEDED. (YOU MAY HAVE TO DO THIS SEVERAL TIMES BUT YOU SHOULD SEE A STEADY IMPROVEMENT WITH EACH CLEANING CYCLE) WHEN FINISHED AND QUALITY IS GOOD, ENTER CODE:99 TO RETURN TO STANDARD MODE. PRESS MENU/SET 4, THEN MONO FAX START TO PRINT OUT PRINT QUALITY CHECK SHEET & FOLLOW ON SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS. by unknown on Nov 25, 2004 at 11:50am Add comment Please sign in to comment How bout I t
Brother MFC-3820cn in which the prinhead died and I got a replacement with partial instructions to install the new one. In the instructions one part refers to updating the EEPROM with info about the new printhead and that appears to be missing. What it says is: (21) Update the head property information stored in the EEPROM of the main PCB, referring to Section 2.3 Section 2.3 is missing :-( and I don't know how long it will take them to get the information to me, if anyone can help it would be very much appreciated! Thanks, Chris. Chris, Aug 10, 2007 #1 Advertisements Chris Guest Disregard And thanks. With MUCH flogging of google I was able to find the answer .
