did Brothers correct inkleak problem?

Brother didn't want to correct the problem because I was using off brand ink in the printer (which we bought from Amazon at the same time we bought the printer). Sadly, we didn't want the hassle of dealing with Brother anymore so we just left it at the repair center as we were more than 50 miles away from it. So I can't say if they repaired the leak or not, sorry if I'm not any help.

I never asked as I needed a printer quick so bought a $50 Epson from Walmart and am totally happy with it. Threw away the Brother as I was totally irritated and didn't want to waste anymore time on it. Admittedly I am an Epson fan as that was the brand I had before with no problem and tried the Brother and went back to Epson.

Dear blueyzI have my Brother just as long as you and fortunately I have no problems. I buy my ink fromLDProducts.com and besides the discounted they have been problem free. Sounds like you need some service to your machine, call Brother if warranty is just over, (ask for a Supervisor) they may honor it. Or call the store you bought it for help. Service may be minor. If you took it to a service center they could tellyou what is wrong and how much it would cost to fix, before you would have to go ahead and spend anything more. Good luck.

No problems with ink supply but I'm still using the ones that came with the printer. I don't understand what you mean about the "machine a little left of centerline". I don't watch where the printer cartridge mechanism is on the machine. It moves over to the center when you open the lid so you can replace the cartridges. Otherwise how would you know whether it was a little left of the centerline?

Appears to be from Brother. Came in a Brother box, completely sealed, and with all the Brother stuff on the cartridge. That said, mine worked worse than a $15.00 aftermarket refill.

If you contact Brother, they can help. Their CSR Rep was able to help me Purge the print head and now I'm back in business. I got a back-up printer just in case.

I don't know if they are or not. I think I went to the Brother site to find out. Good luck. (They might leak on your hands a little. I don't know if they are leaking inside my printer) But so far they are working OK. Not the greatest color. Next time I am going to spend a little more money and get something a little better.

No problems yet, but only one refill. Check to be sure that there is not ink on the chip at the bottom front of the cartridge or on the pins that make contact with the chip. Clean them with a Q-tip and rubbing alcohol to see if that helps. As for the colors, try the cleaning function that was mentioned in another answer. You can also remove the print head to see if there is any spilled ink on those contacts. If all else fails and you are still missing colors, soaking the print head in Windex for a couple of days, then rinsing in water can help dissolve clogs.

I only had trouble with one of the color cartridges on a different Canon Pixma model and the blue leaked a bit. Don't know who commented on a problem with fitting.

NO! sorry. Serious trouble before the end of the first year. Got rid of it.. Wouldn't print anything RED, started going through ink like water...

It was when I had this problem. Be warned, though, if Kodak encourages you to spend the money on a new printhead (they also talked me into new ink): neither fixed the problem, and a follow-up call to Kodak confirmed that the printer was toast. I had to recycle the newly purchased ink and printer. Kodak would not refund the new printhead.

I'm having the same problem with the black ink. I paid handsomely for this printer, and the Company should stand by their product. Let's see if they do. If I can't find a solution to the problem, I will address Brother. I suggest you do the same as it appears we are not alone.

hello good afternoon not long ago did the installation of the equipment you purchase them and did not work. I had to buy another computer here in Venezuela because it is very costly forwarding them to the United States for grantia ... when the team withdrew inks was verified that the pipes they were obscured by the time the ink hoses .. thanks for letting me express myself .. and sorry because I'm writing a universal translator

I have not tried either so any response would only be a guess and that holds little value. I can say that I am pleased with the printer and the incredibly good Brother support. I imagine that Brother would be happy to answer. Sorry I cannot help you.

My experience was not that great! The colors would not work when printing. I ended going to Staples and buying the ink from there. I would have gotten my money back if I could have, but I waited to o long. To answer the question I don't believe my had a hole, but they did not work!

Have never had a paper jam with my printer and suggest you seek advice from brother as this problem does not seem to be run of the mill.

yes it is, I've also found that it was resourceful to buy the ink refill kit instead of recycling or replacing the cartridge itself...it's somewhat messy and for some reason the printer still reads replace the toner but that's an issue that Brother needs to address with the printer function, everything else works as it should.
