Error 78 indicates a mechanical malfunction from within the printer. Not6 really anything you can do as the end user. I would recommend getting in touch with Brother or a printer technician.

I need the singer Serger S14-78 manual

Singer.com has links to the manual on the product page, https://www.singer.com/S14-S-Serger , and their support page, https://www.singer.com/support . However, my browser gives an error from the product page link. At the support search bar, you only need to search for S14.

The current link to the manual for the S14-78 is https://res.cloudinary.com/singer-sewing/image/upload/v1610566267/Singer-Website-Library/Manuals/Products_manuals/S14SergerManual.pdf . Note: the manual covers several models; pay attention to ensure looking at the sections appropriate for your machine.

You will need to arrange to print the manual yourself. That can be on your own printer or someplace like Kinko's. Take the file on a USB drive or upload it for a print shop job. (I print select pages that I use often and refer to the PDF, as needed.)

I hope this helps.

Brother DCP-9010cn is showing Unable to print code 73

The error code 73 means that you have a paper jam or a paper sensor problem.

here are a list of all the codes for brother printers:

To troubleshoot paper jams go here:

If its not a paper jam you will need to call brother customer service as it may need a sensor part.

Till 2 days before I have been printing my digital photos and everything was ok. Now whatever I print it seems to be like green somehow. I've changed the inks both (78 & 15) with new ones, but the...

I've solved the problem on my own :) Althought the 78 toner was new (and not refilled) it seemed that it didn't have the magenta ink (red). I had an extra 78 and changed it. I had a self test before and another after and saw the difference. Finally the problem was the new toner :) Thanks again :)

My hp deskjet 1280 will not print yellow

Hello, this is Harry from www.BusinessSpread.co.uk.
We had the exact same problem when printing, we used 3 different 78 colour ink cartages and they all said 100% full but did not work. We then had a look at the dates on the box and they were all expired so when buying ink from anywhere even PC world or Curry’s always look at the expiry date.
Today I went to PC world and purchased a new 78 ink which said expires July 2011 and it works perfectly fine.
