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 MFC will not know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge.

■

DO NOT shake the ink cartridges. If you do so, 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 mix the colors by installing an ink cartridge in the wrong color position, you
must clean the print head several times after correcting the cartridge installation and
before you start printing.

■

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.
