Advice for Preparation and Simple User Guide

Choosing a Location

Place the machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the machine near a telephone socket and a standard, earthed electrical socket. Choose a location where the temperature remains between 10°C and 35°C (50° – 95°F).

Avoid placing the machine where it may be knocked. Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers as disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless phones.

Keep the machine out of strong light such as direct sunlight.

Installing the Ink Cartridges

If Ink gets in your eyes, flush them with water immediately and seek medical attention if required.

• 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 machine 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.

•DO NOT refill the ink cartridges. Attempting to use refilled cartridges or the use of incompatible inks, may cause damage to the print head in your product. Any such damages 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. We can only recommend the use of genuine Brother consumables.

■If you install an ink cartridge in the wrong colour position, you must clean the

print heads several times after correcting the cartridge installation and before you start printing because the colours were mixed.

■Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in the machine and use it up within six months of installation. Use unopened ink cartridge by the expiry date printed on the box.

■If the INK EMPTY XXXX error message is on the screen display after you have installed the ink cartridges, check and make sure that the ink cartridges are installed correctly.
