Replacing the Brother MFC-J6710DW Ink Cartridges.

The Brother MFC-J6710DW printer is equipped with an ink dot counter. The ink dot counter automatically monitors the level of ink in each of the four cartridges. When the Brother MFC-J6710DW printer detects an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine will tell you with a message on the LCD.
The LCD will tell you which ink cartridge is low or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the LCD prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the correct order.
Even though the Brother MFC-J6710DW printer tells you to replace an ink cartridge, there will be a small amount of ink left in the ink cartridge. It is necessary to keep some ink in the ink cartridge to prevent air from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.

  1. Open the ink cartridge cover.
    If one or more of the ink cartridges have reached the end of their life, the LCD shows B&W Print Only or Cannot Print.
  2. Press the lock release lever as shown to release the cartridge for the color indicated on the LCD. Remove the cartridge from the machine.

  3. Open the new ink cartridge bag for the color shown on the LCD, and then take out the ink cartridge.
  4. Turn the green release lever on the orange protective packing (1) clockwise until it clicks to release the vacuum seal.
    Then remove the orange protective packing as shown.

  6. Gently push the back of the ink cartridge marked “PUSH” until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover.
    close the ink cartridge cover
  7. The machine will automatically reset the ink dot counter.

If you replaced an ink cartridge, for example Black, the LCD may ask you to verify that it was a brand new one (for example, Did You Change Black). For each new cartridge you installed, press 1 (Yes) to automatically reset the ink dot counter for that color. If the ink
cartridge you installed is not a brand new one, be sure to press 2 (No).
If the LCD shows No Ink Cartridge or Cannot Detect after you install the ink cartridges, check that the ink cartridges are installed properly.
