machine may not detect the ink
cartridge.
Replace the cartridge with a Brother original
Innobella™ ink cartridge. If the error message
remains, contact your Brother dealer.

Cannot Print One or more of the ink cartridges are
empty. The machine will stop all
print operations. While memory is
available, black & white faxes will be
stored in the memory. If a sending
machine has a colour fax, the

the fax be sent as black & white. If
the sending machine has the ability
to convert it, the colour fax will be
stored in the memory as a black &
white fax.
Replace the empty ink cartridges. (See
Replacing the ink cartridges on page 129.)
