Power supply is the problem. If not under warrenty, open the cover and look for blown capacitors. If there are, try replacing those or have them replaced. Might solve your problem

    Other web sites have found the cause as two bad capacitors.

    They claim that C23, 10v and 1000MicroF and C17, 25 and 1800 microF are the problems. Actually, I believe that you will find that C19-10v 3300mF and C20-10v 1200mF are the culprits. Since they are all so inexpensive, you could just replace them all.

Hello, I bought a brother all in one printer, the MFC-J265. It is hooked up to the computer and I have installed it the way it says in the manual, except when the printer is on there is nothing shown on...

f the keys on the control panel do not respond or triple beep when youpress them follow the steps listed below:1. Unplug your machine from the electrical outlet, wait 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
2. Verify the date and time are displayed on the LCD.
a.If the date and time show on the display, continue to step 3.
b. If the LCD displays an error message (example: paper jam) or status message (example: ink empty), refer to the necessary solution for the message that is appearing on the LCD.
c.f the display is blank, verify the power cord is connected. If the power cord is connected to a surge protector or power switch, remove thecord from the device and connect it directly to the outlet. Next, verifythe unit is powered ON. The MFC has an ON/OFF key located on the right side of the unit. In OFF mode the display will be blank. If the display is still blank, try a different known working electrical outlet at your location. If the display still remains blank and your machine iswithin warranty, you can locate a Brother Authorized Service Center (ASC) in your area using one of the following:
Click on:
http://www.brother-usa.com/support/and then click on the "Service Center Locator" option located on the left side of the page or for automated assistance by telephone, dial 1-800-284-4357 and select Option2 to access our fax back system. This system can provide you a printed list via facsimile or verbal listings of a Brother ASC in your area. Youmay also contact Brother Customer Service at 1-800-284-4329 Monday through Friday, 9:00am - 7:00pm EST, excluding holidays. If you are outof warranty, you need to contact a Brother Authorized Service Center using the information listed above.
3. There are 3 Mode keys located below the LCD display, PHOTOCAPTURE, FAX, SCAN and COPY. The correct mode key must be illuminated in green when attempting to access or program one of these functions (faxing, copying or scanning). Examples: If you try to access the "Setup Receive"or "Setup Send" menu's, make sure the FAX mode key is illuminated in green. If not, press it to turn Fax Mode "ON". If you are trying to make a copy, make sure the COPY mode key is illuminated in green. If not, press it to turn the COPY mode "ON". If the correct mode key is notilluminated in green when attempting to access specific functions, the keys on the control will triple beep when pressed.
4. Press the keys to see if they respond. For example: if you press the MENU/SET key the menu options should be displayed on the LCD. If you press the HOOK key, you should hear a dial tone (provided the speaker volume is set at an audible level, and the line connections are correct).
5. If every key still triple beeps or does not respond, gently massage each key on the control panel in a circular motion to dislodge any stuckkeys. You should do this regardless of whether or not any of the keys appear to be stuck. Then test the functionality of the control panel again, using either the MENU/SET or HOOK key, as outlined in STEP 4.
If none of the keys are stuck, or if freeing a stuck key did not restorethe control panel#s functionality and your machine is within warranty, you can locate a Brother Authorized Service Center (ASC) in your area using one of the following:
Click on:
http://www.brother-usa.com/support/and then click on the "Service Center Locator" option located on the left side of the page or for automated assistance by telephone, dial 1-800-284-4357 and select Option2 to access our fax back system.

Scan not functioning. Provides NO ERRORS.

Unplug the power cable from the All-In-One when there is still power in the unit.
Also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
Leave the cable unplugged for atleast 1Min time.
And connect the cable directly to wall outlet with out any surg protector (if you have a different outlet try with that)
Then before connecting the cable to the All-In-One press and hold the # and no 9 button do not release the buttons untill it comes up with a mesage as reset (or if the screen goes blank then release the keys and turn the power on)
Then press the setup/menu button and then press the right arrow key till you see print reports> the press Ok and scroll to print test page and check if it is functioning properly.
Then try a color or Black copy and check.
