I have a Brother MFC-240c multi function inkjet printer. It has been in storage for some time. After 25 cleanings the yellow color will still not work. My question is, if I open the unit up, where exactly do you think the culprit component would be? In the printer head? Is the printer head located on the sliding mechanism?Yellow color not working on brother printer?

What laser printer could you recommend for printing good quality color vinyl stickers?
Basically I'm printing vinyl sticker that have quite a bit of color to them. I want them to come out with a very crisp image. I'm thinking between $100 - $250 which may not be realistic, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks.What laser printer could you recommend for printing good quality color vinyl stickers?

Can I use a different number color ink for my printer than indicated?
Ok, I dunno why the ink number for my printer is the most expensive out there. I have an HP PSC 2410 Photosmart All-in-One printer and it takes a 57 tricolor ink and a 56/58 black ink. When i go to buy ink the black is a pretty reasonable $20 or less but the color is like $35 everywhere i go!!
That's really expensive, so I was wondering if I buy a different number color ink (same brand) for my printer, will it fit and work just as well? Or will there be minor/major glitches? Does it really matter if I use a different number than I'm supposed to?Can I use a different number color ink for my printer than indicated?
Generic inks are cheaper and they work too. You may want to consider buying them
If you are buying a different number ink, you need to check if your printer is compatible with it. There is a list of ink cartridges and its compatible printers here http://www.inkjetcartridge101.com/hp-ink鈥?/a>

You should check the printer compatibility on the side of any different cartridge numbers you attempt to use.
Basically, inkjet cartridges need to not only ';fit'; but they need to be electrically compatible with the printer as well, as the ink cartridge is not just a box full of ink, but contains the print spray heads and control mechanisms as well (it's why laser printers and/or inkjet refilling is so much more cost-effective for heavy volume printing, you relegate the manufacture of a complex component to being a one-off (or at least not as many times as you refill at least, laser printers need to replace the drum every few ten thousand pages or so usually).

Can I still use my color printer when the 'Magenta' cartridge runs out? ?
The magenta cartridge in my color printer is all out, and I can't use it. Is there some way I can program it to still work? It is an HP Laserjet 3700n. Thanks! Can I still use my color printer when the 'Magenta' cartridge runs out? ?
If that's the only color ink you have, then you have no choice but to buy another cartridge, but if there are other colors, it will still work but only by printing the other colorsCan I still use my color printer when the 'Magenta' cartridge runs out? ?
You can still print in black and white, for sure...if you try to print in color, it will work, but anything that requires that color or a mixture involving that color will simply print without it.
It may be cheaper to buy a new printer than to replace the cartridge. If you do buy a new one, do not get a generic one or refill the old one. I've had to repair a great number of printers with problems stemming from anything but the right cartridge.
Yeah you can use it but the ink wont be on there to see. The ink starts to fade as you notice or you wont have ink and it just prints out a blank page. So buy a new ink cartridge unless you want to print blank pages or have ink smeared!
i think you can..i was printing a picture of taylor lautner with myfriend for a shirt and her printer was ot of ink of everything but magenta...he still looks hot even when hes hot pink!
You can still use it, I think, but it will just be easier to buy a new one, or get the old cartridge refilled, which is generally cheaper.
ya you can
it will either come oout a different color
or get streaky
so you may want to change the color
or geet new ink
You can still use the printer but it won't print the color.
Uh, sure you can, but you won't have any red. All of your pictures (in color, does not affect black) will be made only of yellow and blue (cyan).
You can try to do clean up in the maintenance area of the solutions on your printer software.
sure you should be able to go in and tell your printer to just print B%26amp;W only check in your prefrences section to see if that option is there.
it should still work u just wont be able to use the magenta colour if u go to ur printer settings there shud be an option to use ink tht u have

I designed a color box using photoshop the printer says the resolution is not enough how can I make it better?
It is done with simple graphicsI designed a color box using photoshop the printer says the resolution is not enough how can I make it better?
For the printer, I would use 150-300 dpi, but you need to make sure you saved your image at its highest resolution as the printer setting doesn't matter much. Especially if you have a low res image to print from.
Image res and printer res are not the same.
RonI designed a color box using photoshop the printer says the resolution is not enough how can I make it better?
Go to Image%26gt;image size
and change the resolution to 72dpi or higher (120dpi should work.

What color ink should I use for my printer?
My dad bought me an ink cartridge kit which is what I use to refill my ink cartridges. The black cartridge is working fine, but the color one has a problem. The kit has three color inks: magenta, yellow, and cyan. I put the magenta ink in, but all the color pictures were pink! So what should I do? Do I mix these colors?What color ink should I use for my printer?
do you have one cart for M, one for Y, one for C? and one for black?
i have 4 carts in my printer and that's how i refill each one.
if you put M into a tri-color cart it's hosed. why would you think you could just put one color ink into something holding 3 colors?
buy a new cart. you can't refill tri-colors with refill kitsWhat color ink should I use for my printer?
put all the cartridges in. the computer will mix them for you, you goof!
