Hi MdRahim,

I have seen this with a different Brother printer. This might work on this machine as well ...

Go to the "Internal maintenance mode" (press the [Menu/Set] button, then press * 2 8 6 4 within 2 seconds). Enter 80, and then scroll down with the arrow down (round) key. You should find an entry listed as "purge count". If number is over 6000, enter 2 7 8 3. This will reset the purge count value. Then the printer will restart, hopefully without the annoying message.

Some times this happens because of using cheap compatible ink cartridges if this is the case change the ink cartridges.

Also a paper jam can cause this. Check that there are no fragments of paper anywhere in the mechanism and check again.

Good luck.
