Why does my Brother Printer say 'Cannot Detect' ink cartridge?
- NNicole ConwayAug 17, 2025
Your Brother Printer might display 'Cannot Detect' for several reasons. It could be due to: * Installing the ink cartridge too quickly. * Incorrect installation of the ink cartridge. * Reinstalling a used ink cartridge. * Using non-Brother Original ink. * The ink cartridge needing replacement. * An air bubble in the new ink cartridge. * Installing the wrong Brother model ink cartridge. Try reinstalling the cartridge slowly and firmly. If using a non-Brother cartridge, replace it with a genuine Brother ink cartridge. Ensure you're using the correct model.
