Caution

DO NOT remove ink cartridges if you do not need to replace them. If you do
so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the printer will not know the quantity of
ink left in the cartridge.

DO NOT shake the ink cartridges, because the ink may spill when you take off
the sealing tape.

If ink stains your body or clothing, wash with soap or detergent immediately.

If you install an ink cartridge in the wrong color position, you must clean the
print head several times before you start printing (after correcting the cartridge
installation) because the colors were mixed.

Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in the MFC and use it up within six
months of installation. Use unopened ink cartridges by the expiration date
written on the cartridge package.

DO NOT refill the ink cartridges. Attempting to use refilled cartridges and using
incompatible inks may cause damage to the print head in this machine and such
damage will not be covered by warranty. Warranty coverage does not apply to
problems caused by the use of 3rd party ink or 3rd party ink cartridges. Use only
genuine Brother ink cartridges.

If you still cannot solve a problem with your MFC, call Brother Customer
Service (See

Brother Numbers

, page i).

Note

If the

INK EMPTY

message is on the display after you have installed ink

cartridges, check that the ink cartridges are installed correctly.
