How to remove vertical black lines in copies from Brother MFC-495CW?
Vertical black lines or streaks on copies from your Brother All in One Printer are typically caused by dirt or correction fluid on the scanner. Clean the glass strip and scanner glass, as well as the white bar and white plastic above them.
Why is the print quality poor on my Brother MFC-495CW?
To address poor print quality on your Brother All in One Printer, first, ensure your ink cartridges are fresh, as ink can clog if the expiration date has passed, the cartridge has been in the machine for over six months, or it wasn't stored properly. Ensure you are using Genuine Brother Innobella™ Ink. Also, check the print quality. Make sure that the Media Type setting in the printer driver or the Paper Type setting in the machine’s menu matches the paper you are using. Try using the recommended types of paper. The recommended environment for your machine is between 68 °F to 91 °F (20 °C to 33 °C).
