BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER MACHINE
LIMITED WARRANTY
(Canada only)
Pursuant to the limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts,
Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its Authorized Service
Centres, will repair or replace (at Brother’s sole discretion) this MFC machine free of charge
if defective in material or workmanship. This warranty applies only to products purchased and
used in Canada.
This limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables (including, without limitation,
ink cartridges, print cartridges, toner cartridges, drum units, OPC belts, fixing units, print
heads, paper feed rollers, transfer rolls, cleaning rollers, waste toner packs, oil bottles) or
damage caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation, any
damage caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other
than a Brother Authorized Service Representative, or if shipped out of the country.
The use of supplies or consumable items that are non-Brother products may void your
warranty. This limited warranty ceases when this machine is rented, sold, or otherwise
disposed of. Operation of the MFC machine in excess of the specifications or with the Serial
Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be
the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser.
In order to obtain warranty service, the MFC machine must be delivered or shipped freight
prepaid by the end-user/purchaser to a “Brother” Authorized Service Centre, together with
your Canadian Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.
When shipping or transporting your MFC machine, please refer to your Operation Manual for
the proper packaging procedures. Improper packaging may cause severe damage to the
machine during shipping and will void the warranty.
For Laser units: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit, waste toner
packs or oil bottles on applicable models) during shipping or transport will cause severe
damage to the Laser MFC machine and will void the Warranty.
For inkjet units: (When shipping your Inkjet MFC machine remove the ink cartridges and
replace them with the original protective parts. If original protective parts are not available,
leave ink cartridges installed. Please avoid shipping the unit without original protective parts
or ink cartridges.) Damage to your print head resulting from packing the Inkjet MFC machine
without the ink cartridges or the protective parts will void your warranty.
BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATIONS, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO THE
EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY WAIVED.
No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its Authorized
Service Centres, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create another warranty
or modify this warranty. The warranty states Brother's entire liability and your exclusive
remedy against Brother for any failure of the MFC machine to operate properly.
Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of this
MFC machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or
punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the use of or inability to use the product,
even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the possibility of such damages. Since some
Provinces do not allow the above limitation of liability, such limitation, may not apply to you.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other
rights which vary from Province to Province.
Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized
Service Centres throughout Canada. For Technical
