When we replace new ink cartridges into our Brother printers and are about to print papers, there are program words that “Brother Printer Cannot Detect Ink Cartridge” showing on the LCD display, or “No Cartridge”. This situation occurs usually when we replace it with generic ink cartridges or ink refilled ink cartridges. Here we would like to share our experience on how to solve this problem.
Firstly, power off the printer, open the printer cover and push the four-color ink cartridges level down. Take out the ink cartridges and reinstall them back one by one carefully, make sure the color is matched in the printer. After all the four-color ink cartridges are installed, close the cover and turn on the printer. Click “Yes ” when the program asks you about the new ink cartridge installing each time. After that, this problem will be solved. We highly recommend you not use the third-party generic ink cartridges to replace our Brother printers. Ink refilling is also not good for our printers because low-quality ink will clog our printer’s ink nozzles, and damage our printers. Another case is our printer shows “No Ink” after we installed the refilled ink cartridges. This situation happens with the possibility that one of the four-color ink cartridges we didn’t replace is empty. We should check the ink volume and replace the empty one. Select the “Ink Management” on the display, and then select “Ink Volume” by using the up and down key. Press “OK” when we see the ink volume. Check the Brother CMYK 4 color ink cartridges volume by using the up and down key. Exit the task after the process is finished. If the four-color ink cartridges are full and the “No Ink” words still show, unplug the power and restart the printer.
