The machine prints dense lines on
the page. Check Reverse Order in the Basic tab of the printer driver.
The printouts are wrinkled. In the printer driver Advanced tab, click Color Settings, and uncheck
Bi-Directional Printing for Windows
® or Bi-Directional Printing for Macintosh.
Make sure you are using Genuine Brother Innobella™ Ink.
Cannot perform ‘Page Layout’
printing. Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are the
same.
Print speed is too slow. Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data
processing, sending and printing time. Try the other quality settings in the printer
driver Basic tab. Also, click Color Settings, and make sure you uncheck Color
Enhance (True2Life
® ).
Turn the borderless feature off. Borderless printing is slower than normal printing.

for this purpose.
Clean the paper pick-up rollers. (See Cleaning the paper pick-up rollers

other print media on page 8.)
Check that more than two types of paper are not loaded in the paper tray at any
one time.
There is a paper jam. Make sure the paper length guide is set to the paper size. Do not extend the paper
tray when you load A5 or smaller size paper. (See Printer jam or paper jam
on page 113.)
Printed pages are not stacked
neatly. Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper and other
print media on page 8.)

Printing Received Faxes
Difficulty Suggestions
Condensed print and white streaks
across the page or the top and
bottom of sentences are cut off. You probably had a bad connection, with static or interference on the telephone
line. Ask the other party to send the fax again.
Vertical black lines when receiving. The sender's scanner may be dirty. Ask the sender to make a copy to see if the
problem is with the sending machine. Try receiving from another fax machine.
Received color fax prints only in
black & white. Replace the color ink cartridges that have reached the end of their life, and then
ask the other person to send the color fax again. (See Replacing the ink cartridges
on page 116.)
Left and Right margins are cut off or
a single page is printed on two
pages. Turn on Auto Reduction. (See Printing a reduced incoming fax on page 39.)
