      I bought a brother printer model J1010DW because it’s brother, right? Also it was the cheapest brother printer in stock locally around the time I was sick & tired of detouring to the print shop.

      The color cartridges still have tons of ink swashing in them, but the printer won’t even print in b&w because it detects the other cartridges as empty. So I try the tape-over-the-ink-window method, and my printer says, HMM, I GUESS THERE’S INK NOW, BUT THESE MUST NOT BE BROTHER PRINTER CARTRIDGES, HURR DURR, and makes itself an overweight scanner.
