Brother DCP-135C Error message CLEAN UNABLE 46
The error you are getting is telling you that the
Waste Pads have to get replaced because they are saturated with ink.
The sets of pads run under $20. The Upper set of Pads is not too hard to replace, you need to take the scanner assembly off, upper cover and control panel and the flushing box is in the back. The second pad requires taking out the printer mechansim and platen roller , bottom plate and possible removal of printhead. I do not recommend you doing this.
The unit then needs to get reset.
thanks

Startup problems with the Brother MFC-5840CD All-in-one
You have to open the scannerbox very carefully.
There is a contact on the lefthandside placed where the motor and belt is located. Check the position of the motor an ohter parts, by carefully sliding the scanner bar by hand. You may need to click in some parts because they have got loosen.
Reassemble scannerbox.

Brother MFC 5860cn magenta color is not printing
This can happen if the ink dries out for a long time. Try to power flush the color that doesn't work.
Press the Menu/Set, *, 2, 8, 6 and 4 keys within two seconds. (if you fail to complete the correct key sequence within two seconds, press the Stop key to try again).
press 7 then 6 then 4 then start black copy. This will fill the tubes with ink.
press 7 then 6 then 3 then start black copy. You may use the right arrow to choose the color you want to flush before you press the black copy button.
Press 99 to exit maintenance mode
Press the ink button and do a test print for print quality and see if the color you flushed works. If not, try again.
This is the only way to fix the dried print head. Otherwise you have to replace the print head, in which case, you might as well buy a new printer.

Tried to fax a 2
Have a look at these solutions maybe 1 of em will help
This problem could be Phone line problem, or hardware failure or receiver's (the machine of the person whom you are sending the fax) machine problem and so on. First, let's check the line, if you have another Phone line, please dial from the number to your number, also, connect the currently connected line to a receiver and call a Land-line number, if the outgoing or incoming is ok, the proceed forward, otherwise, you telephone operator should check the line.
Sometimes, sending fax to a particular number doesn't work, to make sure, try sending a fax to another number.
If the line which is connected to the machine is extended from another machine such as Receiver, Switch, etc... unplug them and connect the fax machine directly to the Line.
It's also important to adjust the compatibility mode, to do this, follow the steps below:
Press Menu. Press the up or down arrow key to select Fax. Press OK. Press the up or down arrow key to select Miscellaneous. Press OK. Press the up or down arrow key to select Compatibility. Press the left or right arrow key to select Basic (for VoIP). Press OK. Press Stop/Exit.
