    I had Brother MFC-240C for over a decade. It's display screen was gradually became less pronounced until it was barely showing information and I had to look at it from a different angle. Today it is almost unusable. I have to crouch to see something on it. I wonder what can be done about it...

    How to get printhead to move out into open MFC-240C
