Introducción

Ir al paso 1

The Brother MFC-490CW is an all-in-one inkjet printer that includes features like printing, scanning, copying, and faxing. In terms of its internal components, the motherboard (also referred to as the mainboard) is a crucial part of the printer. The motherboard serves as the central circuit board that houses the primary processing unit and connects various components, such as the CPU, memory, input/output ports, and other essential elements. Issues with the motherboard in a Brother MFC-490CW, such as power failures, display dysfunction, communication errors, and persistent print quality problems, may suggest various malfunctions.

How Did you program the new mainboard with serial # and other info???

Dj Damir (Dj Damir) - Contestar

Also works for DCP J715W and probably others since they all look alike.

(Don’t try to pry open the front panels on the DCP J715W. It’s just for decorative purpose, and I broke the one-way plastic clips trying to remove them. The rule seems to be “If you don’t see a screw to remove a part, it’s that you didn’t find it yet” (All meaningful “one-way plastic clips” I found were easily accessible))
