I can tell you what this mysterious “error 41″ message is at least. The printheads put into this series of printers will cause this error if they fail – either by a hairline fracture on the head itself or if the voltage flickers from high to low causing a small short (or something – as per Brother themselves) I’m in the UK and deal with Brother every day – the service they have here is second to none and upon the Error 41 appearing they usually have an engineer out to replace the printhead within 48 hours, which resolves the problem 9 times out of 10. The constant cleaning cycle can again be remedied by a factory reset, and I find it such a shame that the support you get over there doesn’t sound as good as it is over here. I still recommend Brother to most people, even with the problems on this series, which has been addressed and resolved in their latest range.
I purchased this printer in July 2004. As others have mentioned, it continually goes into cleaning cycles but can’t seem to keep itself unclogged. After less than 2 years of use, I had the dreaded “error 41″ indicating a bad print head which Brother replaced under extended warranty. Less than 18 months later, same error but this time the cost of replacement came out of my own pocket. I was told that using off brand ink was a cause of failure. I stuck to the Brother brand of ink and just over 2 years after the second print head replacement, I’m getting “error 41″ again. I will never buy another Brother product again.
I have NEVER had much trouble with printers. They get a few years old and just stop working. But I’ve had nothing but problems with this horrific device! From the beginning, the manual was in Chinese, the operation was so complicated that I had to refer to (and decipher) the manual over and over. Just changing the ink carts was ridiculous, as the stupid thing ALWAYS said “no cartridge” until you pounded the new one in with your fist (all three colors and black did the same thing). Had to “clean” the black each and every time I wanted to print a letter, resume, etc. More smudged and faded prints than should ever be put up with. Won’t ALLOW you to print if the idiotic thing PERCEIVES that ink in ANY cartridge is low (even if it’s almost half full)!!!! I would never buy anything from BroHoe again, and suggest you STAY AWAY!
I have had this printer for a little more than 2 years now. Its a great looker as others have mentioned, and its low profile is perhaps the best in the all-in-one segment. It will fax well. The included software is OK. But it is a dog at printing. I’ve replaced the black cartridge numerous times, and I only print perhaps 15 pages a month! Sometimes, I replaced the cartridge twice in a month; and even then it has streaking issues.
The real cost of ownership of this printer is unaffordably high. I’d say stay cvlear of it until a better one comes out of Brother’s design team.
Bought this while I was a college student and it lasted like a champ for about a year and a half. Then I got the dreaded error 41 message (bad print head). Called Brother and was asked if I use OEM ink or not. I said sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. Well luckily there was a recall on the print head but since it wasn’t still under the manufacturer’s warranty, I’d have to take it to a service center. Only one was even close to me and their hours were 8-4 M-F. So I had to take off work to drop it off and pick it up. They had it for over a week because they replaced the print head with a new one, only to find out it was defective and we had to wait for Brother to send another one to them. Got my machine back finally and it worked fine for 3.5 months then had the error 41 again. Called Brother and was told to take it up with the repair center. Well they only warrant their work for 60 days. Now it’s a piece of junk. Bought another Brother machine – but bought it at Best Buy with a 3 year full replacement warranty. I know it will break within that time.
