Walk-Up Video Printing

Introduction

Walk-Up Video Printing lets you use your Brother machine (connected to your camcorder, digital camera, video game, or VCR) to capture a video frame on the attached equipment and print it on your MFC. The video signal and the output you create are NTSC (National Television System Committee). They are not compatible with any other standard.

Getting Started

With no documents in the feeder, plug the cable from you video camera’s Video Out jack into the Brother machine’s RCA pin jack. Play the video.

Some camcorders, digital cameras, video games or VCRs do not correctly conform with NTSC standards. Then you would not be able to capture video signals.

Setting Up Video Print Mode

Whenever you connect video equipment to the Brother machine and turn on the video signal, the machine’s Copy keys automatically switch to video printing mode
