I printed pages and in 5 pages ink decreased to nothing. I cleaned it 2 times in a row manually and it now was 95% filled. So I blew smoke up the ink shoot again and nothing. I printed a few pages and now I’m back to square one. Note: Cleaning the Brother DCP-J105 does waste ink.ĭammit, now it is worse. So I cleaned it 2 times in a row now and a few more dots/lines appeared.
The goal is to have that entire block coloured black. I cleaned it (with the cleaning option on the printer menu) and printed a few black ink test pages and it is gradually getting more black spots. After doing a print test page a few dots of black now print. I did this with a straw and my own breath (pauper lifestyle) and miraculously a few lines of black now print. It was to blow compressed air into the same place where ink goes and that would unblock it. I search the internet again today and found a post on how to clean a Brother DCP-J105 not printing black: Well joke is on him, all is not lost, it still may be alive. In that video the British bellend said that if it does not push black ink out the print head your printer is most likely dead. I did that with my home made cleaning fluid (alcohol) and a syringe and it didn’t really work. So I tried a youtube video that showed a cleaning kit and using a syringe to push cleaning fluid into the place the ink usually goes. It is always a good idea to at least try the manufacturers website and see what they suggest to fix black on a Brother DCP-J105. I did a test print and all other colours worked except black. After putting it in and printing it still was not printing black. I then saw that it was not printing black, so I bought a new cartridge. So I unpacked it and opened it up and cleaned it out as best I could. I had left it in an outside room for about a year and ants had got into it and layed eggs etc. I have one of these damn great things (Brother DCP-J105): I now have the solution of How to fix a Brother DCP-J105 not printing black.Īfter a few weeks of trying, found success and can help you if you having been having issues. Ever replaced the ink cartidge on a Brother and it stops printing that colour? I had that problem after not using it for a while and the Brother DCP-J105 would no longer print black.
