Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓Maintenance mode provides useful functions for diagnosis if you are having troubles with your printer.
This guide shows how to enter maintenance mode on a Brother DCP-J4110DW printer. As the models MFC-J2310/J2510 as well as MFC-J4310DW/J4410DW/J4510DW/J4610DW and J4710DW are similar, the guide should also work for these models.

Gracias por la información. Mi problema es que la casita (HOME) no sale activa ahora. sólo me pone el mensaje de "absorbente de tinta lleno". Antes me salia "casi lleno" y entonces podía acceder al modo mantenimiento y modificar los parámetros.
Quizás haya otra manera de acceder al modo mantenimiento.
Tengo una DCP-J 4110DW.
En el caso de almohadillas llenas, algunas tienen contador y otras un censor que al ya no percibir el color blanco de las almohadillas, asume que están colapsadas. debes sacar las almohadillas y lavarlas o en su defecto cambiarlas por algo blanco como algodón o si encuentras las almohadillas para el modelo de impresora mucho mejor.
