ERROR A7 ON DISPLAY
Hi hkorsand,
Unfortunately, Error A7 is a problem on the printer engine or main circuit board. It is either broken or having short circuit.
Suggestion is you buy a new printer. Spare parts for this printer cost much than a brand new one.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for using Fixya!

Despite inserting new black cartridge (Brother
Hi
If a single inkjet in your printer is not functioning then output will appear as a horizontal line across the page. If one of the jets is on all of the time then output will have black or colored lines across the page. Use the following steps to isolate the problem:
- Replace the ink cartridge
- Check the flexible cabling for continuity and for short circuits between adjacent conductors
- Exchange the control board for a good one
- Finally check the power supply
Good Luck
How to recieve a fax threw brother MFC210C
Unlike many all-in-one units, this one can be used as a stand-alone fax
machine, not requiring you to use fax software in your computer. Make sure you have a telephone line connected to the LINE jack on the side of the machine, and that you have gone through the fax setup steps in the manual. You can download the manual and a quick setup guide
from Brother here if you need a copy. Once the machine is set up and on a phone line, receiving a fax is automatic when someone calls in.
If you are having some specific problem setting up your printer or something is going wrong when it's trying to send or receive a fax, please post a follow-up comment with more detail about the trouble. I'll try to help further if you need it.
Streaky lines through photographs when printing
remove the ink cartrages and clean the connections and print heads with rubbing alcohol on a qtip. this will be messy. let dry for a few minutes and reinstall the cartridges. also streaks can be caused by low ink.
We just put new ink in and it prints out fuzzy .
Every time you replace ink you need to do an alignment. To do this follow these simple steps:
- Press the Ink or Ink Management key on the control panel.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select TEST PRINT and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select ALIGNMENT and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press Black (Mono) Start or Color (Colour) Start. The machine begins printing the Alignment Check Sheet.
- By reviewing this Test Sheet, you can determine if the alignment needs adjustment.
- Examine the 600 DPI and 1200 DPI test prints on the Alignment Check Sheet. If the number 5 sample of both the 600 DPI and 1200 DPI most closely matches the 0 sample, press 1 (YES).
If one of the other samples is a better match for the 0 sample, press 2 (NO). The display will then prompt you to select the sample that most closely matches the 0 sample for 600 DPI and then 1200 DPI.
- Press Stop/Exit.

Cannot Clean
Its most likely cheaper to just buy a new multifunction device. Its probably some faulty hardware component that is causing you to be unable to clean. If you are trying to clean the exterior I suggest a moist cloth rag.
I have the usb cord
