The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you use in the machine.
To get the best print quality for the settings you have chosen, always set the Paper Type to match the type of paper you load.
You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, transparencies and envelopes.
We recommend testing various paper types before buying large quantities.
For best results, use the Brother paper.
When you print on inkjet paper (coated paper), transparencies and photo paper, be sure to choose the correct print media in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in the Paper Type setting of the menu. (See
When you print on Brother Photo paper, load one extra sheet of the same photo paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has been included in the paper package for this purpose.
When you use transparencies or photo paper, remove each sheet at once to prevent smudging or paper jams.
Avoid touching the printed surface of the paper immediately after printing; the surface may not be completely dry and may stain your fingers.
Loading paper and documents
Recommended print media
To get the best print quality, we suggest using
Brother paper. (See the table below.)
If Brother paper is not available in your country, we recommend testing various papers before purchasing large quantities.
We recommend using ‘3M Transparency
Film’ when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print media
Store paper in its original packaging, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of photo paper. Load photo paper with the shiny side facing down.
Avoid touching either side of transparencies because they absorb water and perspiration easily, and this may cause decreased output quality.
Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only transparencies recommended for inkjet printing.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:
• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped paper

Paper capacity of the output paper tray cover
Up to 50 sheets of 20 lb Letter or 80 gsm A4 paper.
Transparencies and photo paper must be picked up from the output paper tray cover one page at a time to avoid smudging.

This product supports xD-Picture Card™
Type M / Type M + / Type H
(Large Capacity).
The PhotoCapture Center™ feature lets you print digital photos from your digital camera at high resolution to get photo quality printing.
Memory cards and folder structures
Your machine is designed to be compatible with modern digital camera image files and memory cards; however, please read the points below to avoid errors:
The image file extension must be .JPG
(other image file extensions like .JPEG,
.TIF, .GIF and so on will not be recognized).
Direct PhotoCapture Center™ printing without using a PC must be performed separately from PhotoCapture Center™ operations using the PC. (Simultaneous operation is not available.)
IBM Microdrive™ is not compatible with the machine.
The machine can read up to 999 files on a memory card.
The DPOF file on the memory cards must
be in a valid DPOF format. (See DPOF
Please be aware of the following:
When printing an index or image, the
PhotoCapture Center™ will print all valid images, even if one or more images have been corrupted. Corrupted images will not be printed.
Your machine is designed to read memory cards that have been formatted by a digital camera.
When a digital camera formats a memory card it creates a special folder into which it copies image data. If you need to modify the image data stored on a memory card with your PC, we recommend that you do not modify the folder structure created by the digital camera. When saving new or modified image files to the memory card we also recommend you use the same folder your digital camera uses. If the data is not saved to the same folder, the machine may not be able to read the file or print the image.

Replacing the ink cartridges
B
Your machine is equipped with an ink dot counter. The ink dot counter automatically monitors the level of ink in each of the 4 cartridges. When the machine detects an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine will tell you with a message on the LCD.
Note
For example, when one of the ink cartridge is nearly empty, the LCD will display Ink Low (name of colour).
You should purchase a replacement cartridge in preparation for when the machine indicates the colour is completely empty.
When one of the ink cartridge is empty, the LCD will display Cannot Print or
B&W Print Only.
You should only replace the actual ink cartridge when this message
Cannot Print or B&W Print Only appears on the LCD.
The LCD will tell you which ink cartridge is low or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the LCD prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the correct order.
Even though the machine tells you to replace an ink cartridge, there will be a small amount of ink left in the ink cartridge. It is necessary to keep some ink in the ink cartridge to prevent air from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.
IMPORTANT
Brother multifunction machines are designed to work with ink of a particular specification and will work to a level of optimum performance and reliability when used with genuine Brother Original ink cartridges. Brother cannot guarantee this optimum performance and reliability if ink or ink cartridges of other specifications are used. Brother does not therefore recommend the use of cartridges other than genuine Brother Original cartridges or the refilling of used cartridges with ink from other sources. If damage is caused to the print head or other parts of this machine as a result of using other brands of ink or ink cartridges, any repairs required as a result may not be covered by the warranty.

• If the LCD shows No Cartridge or
Cannot Detect after you install the ink cartridge, check that the ink cartridges are installed correctly.
CAUTION
If ink gets in your eyes, wash them out with water at once and call a doctor if you are concerned.
IMPORTANT
• 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 touch the cartridge insertion slots. If you do so, the ink may stain your skin.
• If ink gets on your skin or clothing immediately wash it off with soap or detergent.
• 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.
• Once 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.

Cartridge
The machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta ink cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.
The first time you install a set of ink cartridges the machine will use an amount of ink to fill the ink delivery tubes for high quality printouts. This process will only happen once. After this process is complete the cartridges provided with your machine will have a lower yield than standard cartridges (65 %). With all following ink cartridges you can print the specified number of pages.

What is Innobella™?
Innobella™ is a range of genuine consumables offered by Brother.
The name "Innobella™" derives from the words "Innovation" and
"Bella" (meaning "Beautiful" in Italian) and is a representation of the
"innovative" technology providing you with "beautiful" and "long lasting” print results.
When you print photo images, Brother recommends Innobella™ glossy photo paper (BP71 series) for high quality. Brilliant prints are made easier with Innobella™ ink and paper.
