Frequently Asked Questions

 

What to do if the Brother MFC-5490CN LCD shows the 'Cannot Detect' error message after installing the compatible ink cartridges?

The 'Cannot Detect' error message often indicates an incorrectly installed ink cartridge. Remove the ink cartridges first and reinstall them properly to resolve the issue.

 

I got blank text on the printed pages. Does this mean I have to replace one or more ink cartridges?

Not necessarily. You only need to clean the printhead and the ink cartridges to fix the blank text issue.
