This has been a gradual failure to print just the black. I have done 3 cleaning cycles, over multiple days, this worked a little but used quite a bit of ink. Then I used a syringe kit with cleaning fluid and paper towels under the head. Made a bit of a mess and pulled out a bunch of color ink at the same time. That did help, I got back about 90% of the print range. However it quickly failed again to 0%. All I have used in this is Brother Ink. Can the print head removed more a through manual cleaning? What happens to the ink used in the self cleaning operation?
Hi forrest laiche , normally there are several ways, some will replace the print head if it is too bad, another but not recommended is to clean with a little IPA . the ink used for the self cleaning will be deposit into the printer waste ink pad, which is hidden inside the printer.
