Setting Up the Machine
9
6Install each ink cartridge in the direction of the
arrow on the label.
Take care to match the colour of the lock
release lever (1) with the cartridge colour(2),
as shown in the diagram below.
7Lift each lock release lever and gently push it
until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge
cover.
Note
If the LCD prompts you to re-insert the ink
cartridge correctly, after you install the ink
cartridges, check that the ink cartridges are
installed correctly.
The first time the ink cartridges are installed the
machine prepares and cleans the ink tube
system. This initial process will take more time
than a normal cleaning cycle but will happen
only once.
The LCD shows:
Caution
• DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do not need
to replace them. If you do so, it may reduce the ink
quantity and the machine will not know the
quantity of ink left in the cartridge.
• DO NOT shake the ink cartridges. If ink stains your
skin or clothing, wash with soap or detergent at
once.
• D O NOT repeatedly insert and remove the
cartridges. If you do so, ink may seep out of the
cartridge.
• If you mix the colours by installing an ink cartridge
in the wrong position, clean the print head several
times after correcting the cartridge installation.
(See Cleaning the print head in Appendixes B of
the User’s Guide.)
• O nce you open an ink cartridge, install it in the
machine and use it up within six months of
installation. Use unopened ink cartridges by the
expiration date written on the cartridge package.
• DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink
cartridge, this can cause the ink to leak out of the
cartridge.
• Brother multifunction machines are designed to
work with ink of a particular specification and will
work to a level of optimum performance when
used with genuine Brother branded ink cartridges.
Brother cannot guarantee this optimum
performance if ink or ink cartridges of other
specifications are used. Brother does not
therefore recommend the use of cartridges other
than genuine Brother branded cartridges with this
machine or the refilling of empty cartridges with in k
from other sources. If damage is caused to the
print head or other parts of this machine as a result
of using incompatible pro ducts with this machine,
any repairs required as a result may not be
covered by the warranty.
