Hi guys,
About 6 months ago my Brother printer (MFC-5910DW) stopped printing using magenta. I've lived with it accepting that any pictures are going to look a bit odd!
Anyway, today, I set to with a printhead cleaner and after I'd overcome the fact that it then refused to print at all due to a paper jam when there wasn't even a paper tray in it! I got it printing again only to find that it's no better.
The cleaning kit has definitely done what it should as I removed a lot of very soggy and purple coloured paper towel post-clean.
But still, it refused to print properly.
These are the results of the test page:
Any suggestions as to where I go next?
Oh, by the way, anyone know how to remove printer ink from fingers? I've tried soap and water, Manista, white spirit and cellulose thinners, all to no avail
