Safety precautions

To use the printer safely

If you DO NOT follow these safety instructions, there is a possibility of a fire, electrical shock, burn or suffocation. Please keep these instructions for later reference and read them before attempting any maintenance.

WARNING

There are high voltage electrodes inside the printer. Before you clean the inside of the printer, make sure that you have turned off the power switch and unplugged the printer from the AC power outlet.

DO NOT handle the plug with wet hands. Doing this might cause an electrical shock.

Always make sure the plug is fully inserted.

This product must be installed near an AC power outlet that is easily accessible. In case of an emergency, you must disconnect the power cord from the AC power outlet to shut off the power completely.

Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a quality surge protection device on the AC power line, or unplug the cords during a lightning storm.

Avoid using this product during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

ii

DO NOT use this product to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

Use only the power cord provided with the machine.

Plastic bags are used in the packaging of your machine. To avoid danger of suffocation, keep these bags away from babies and children.

DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of spray or an organic solvent/liquid containing alcohol or ammonia to clean the inside or outside of the machine. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical shock. See

Cleaning on page 106 for how to clean the machine.

DO NOT use a vacuum cleaner to clean up scattered toner. Doing this might cause the toner dust to ignite inside the vacuum cleaner, potentially starting a fire. Carefully clean the toner dust with a dry, lint-free cloth and dispose of it according to local regulations.

Cleaning the outside of the printer:

Make sure that you have unplugged the printer from the AC power outlet.

Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine will damage the outside surface of the printer.

DO NOT use cleaning materials that contain ammonia.

iii

CAUTION

After you have just used the printer, some internal parts of the printer will be extremely hot. To prevent injury, when you open the front cover or back cover (back output tray) of the printer, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustration. If you do this, you may get burned.

Inside the printer (Front View) Open the back cover (Back View)

Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area.

Printing Methods

Types of envelopes

Most envelopes will be suitable for your printer. However, some envelopes may have feed and print quality problems due to the way they have been made. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, wellcreased folds and the leading edge should not be thicker than two pieces of paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction. You should buy quality envelopes from a supplier who understands that you will be using the envelopes in a laser printer. Before you print a lot of envelopes, test one to make sure that the print results are what you want.

2

Brother does not recommend a particular envelope because envelope manufacturers may change the envelope specifications. You are responsible for the quality and performance of the envelopes you use.

„ DO NOT use damaged, curled, wrinkled, irregularly shaped, extremely shiny or textured envelopes.

„ DO NOT use envelopes with clasps, snaps, tie strings, self-adhesive components, windows, holes, cutouts or perforations.

„ DO NOT use envelopes that are of a baggy construction, not sharply creased, embossed (have raised writing on them) or pre-printed on the inside.

„ DO NOT use envelopes that were previously printed by a laser printer.

„ DO NOT use envelopes that cannot be arranged when put in a pile.

„ DO NOT use envelopes that are made of paper that weighs more than the paper weight specifications for the printer.

„ DO NOT use envelopes that have been badly made, with edges that are not straight or consistently square.

2

If you use any of the types of envelopes listed above, they may damage your printer. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Note

• DO NOT print envelopes using duplex printing.

• You must choose the same paper size from your application as the paper in the tray.

Note

• Remove each sheet or envelope at once after printing. Stacking the sheets or envelopes may cause the paper to jam or curl.

• If envelopes get smudged during printing set the Media Type to Thick Paper or Thicker Paper to increase the fixing temperature.

• If envelopes are creased after they are printed, see Improving the print quality on page 129.

• (For Windows ® users) If DL size double flap envelopes are creased after printing, choose DL Long Edge in Paper Size, from the Basic tab. Put a new DL size double-flap envelope in the MP tray with the longest edge of the envelope in first, then print again.

2

• When you put paper in the MP tray, remember the following:

• Put the leading edge (top of the paper) in first and push it gently into the tray.

• Make sure that the paper is straight and in the proper position in the MP tray. If it is not, the paper may not be fed properly, resulting in a skewed printout or a paper jam.

Guidelines for printing on both sides of the paper

„ If the paper is thin, it may wrinkle.

„ If paper is curled, flatten it, and then put it back in the paper tray or the MP tray.

„ If the paper is not feeding properly, it may be curled. Remove the paper and straighten it.

„ When you use the manual duplex function, it is possible that there may be paper jams or poor print quality.

(If there is a paper jam, see Paper jams and how to clear them on page 120. If you have a print quality

problem, see Improving the print quality on page 129.)

Note

• The screens in this section are based on Windows ® XP. The screens on your computer may vary depending on your operating system.

• Use A4, Letter, Legal or Folio size paper when you use the automatic duplex printing function.

• Make sure that the back cover is closed.

• Make sure that the paper tray is completely inserted into the printer.

• If paper is curled, straighten it and then put it back in the paper tray.

• You should use plain paper, recycled paper or thin paper. DO NOT use bond paper.

Routine Maintenance

IMPORTANT

For USA and Canada

Brother strongly recommends that you do not refill the toner cartridge provided with your printer. We also strongly recommend that you continue to use only genuine Brother brand replacement toner cartridges. Use or attempted use of potentially incompatible toner and/or cartridges in the Brother machine may cause damage to the machine and/or may result in unsatisfactory print quality. Our warranty coverage does not apply to any problem that is caused by the use of unauthorized third party toner and/or cartridges. To protect your investment and obtain premium performance from the Brother machine, we strongly recommend the use of genuine Brother supplies.

IMPORTANT

For UK and other countries

Brother machines are designed to work with toner of a particular specification and will work to a level of optimum performance when used with genuine Brother branded toner cartridges. Brother cannot guarantee this optimum performance if toner or toner cartridges of other specifications are used. Brother does not therefore recommend the use of cartridges other than genuine Brother branded cartridges with this machine.

If damage is caused to the drum unit or other part of this machine as a result of using other manufacturer's products with this machine, any repairs required as a result may not be covered by the warranty.

Routine Maintenance

Drum unit

A new drum unit can print approximately 25,000 A4 or Letter size single-sided pages at 1 per/ job.

Note

• There are many factors that determine the actual drum life, such as the temperature, humidity, type of paper, type of toner used and so on. Under ideal conditions, the average drum life is estimated at approximately 25,000 pages. The actual number of pages that your drum will print may be significantly less than this estimate. Because we have no control over the many factors that determine the actual drum life, we cannot guarantee a minimum number of pages that will be printed by your drum.

• For best performance, use only genuine Brother toner. The printer should be used only in a clean, dustfree environment with adequate ventilation.

• Printing with a third-party drum unit may reduce not only the print quality but also the quality and life of the printer itself. Warranty coverage does not apply to problems caused by the use of a third-party drum unit.

Drum End Soon message

If Drum LED blinks, it means the drum unit is near the end of its life. We recommend that you replace the drum unit with a new one before there is a noticeable deterioration in the print quality.

The printer does not feed paper from the MP tray.

The printer does not feed envelopes.

A paper jam has occurred.

The printer does not print.

Recommendation

„ If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, flatten it, before printing. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper. Turn the stack over and put it back in the paper tray.

„ Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.

„ Make sure that manual feed mode is not chosen in the printer driver.

„

Clean the paper pick-up roller. See Cleaning the paper pick-up roller on page 111.

„ Fan the paper well and put it back in firmly.

„ Make sure that you have chosen the MP Tray in the Paper Source of the printer driver.

„ The printer can feed envelopes from the multi-purpose tray. You must set up your application to print on the size of envelopes you are using. This is usually done in the page setup or document setup menu of your software. (See your application manual.)

„

Clear the jammed paper. (See Paper jams and how to clear them on page 120.)

Troubleshooting

Note

• Always remove all paper from the paper tray and straighten the stack when you add new paper. This helps prevent multiple sheets of paper from feeding through the printer at one time and prevents paper jams.

• Please confirm that you have installed both a toner cartridge and a drum unit in the machine. If you have not installed a drum unit or have installed the drum unit improperly, then this may cause a paper jam in your Brother machine.

a Open the front cover.

7 b Slowly take out the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly. The jammed paper will be pulled out with the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly.

Appendix

Important information for choosing your paper

This section gives information to help you choose paper to use with this printer.

Note

If you use paper that is not recommended, a paper jam or misfeed may occur in the printer. (See

Recommended paper on page 8.)

Before you buy a large quantity of paper

Make sure that the paper is suitable for the printer.

Paper for plain paper copies

Paper is divided by usage, such as paper for printing and paper for copying. The usage is usually written on the paper’s package. Check the package to see whether it is suitable for laser printers. Use paper that is suitable for laser printers.

0

Basis weight

The basis weight of the paper in general use varies in different countries. We recommend that you use paper that weighs 75 to 90 g/m 2 (20 to 24 lb), although this printer is able to print on thinner or thicker paper than these weights.

Long grain and short grain

The pulp fiber of the paper is aligned during paper manufacturing. And paper can be classified into two types, long grain and short grain.

0

Long grain paper fibers run in the same direction as the long edge of the paper. Short grain paper fibers run perpendicular to the long edge of the paper. Though most plain paper for copying is long grain, some is short grain. We recommend that you use long grain paper for this printer. Short grain paper is too weak for the paper transport of the printer.

Acid paper and neutralized paper

Paper can be classified as either acid paper or neutralized paper.

Though modern paper manufacture methods started with acid paper, neutralized paper is recently taking the place of acid paper because of environmental issues.

0

However, many forms of acid paper can be found in recycled paper. We recommend that you use neutralized paper for this printer.

You can use an acid paper check pen to distinguish acid paper from neutral paper.

Print surface

The characteristics of the face side and reverse side of a sheet of paper may vary a little.

Usually, the opening side of the paper ream package is the print side. Follow the indications on the paper package. Typically, the print side is indicated by an arrow.

0

Moisture content

Moisture content is the amount of water left in the paper after manufacture. It is one of the important characteristics of the paper. This can change greatly depending on the storage environment, although usually paper contains about 5% water by weight. Because paper often absorbs water, the amount of water can sometimes be about 10% in a high humidity environment. When the amount of water increases, the characteristics of the paper changes greatly. The fixing of the toner may become worse. For storage of the paper and during use, we recommend that the humidity of the surrounding environment be between 50% and

60%.

How to use the Web Based Management (web browser)

To use the Web Based Management (web browser), follow the steps below.

Note

We recommend Microsoft

®

Internet Explorer

®

6.0 (or greater) or Firefox 1.0 (or greater) for Windows

®

Safari 1.3 (or greater) for Macintosh. Please also make sure that JavaScript and cookies are always

and enabled in whichever browser you use. To use a web browser, you will need to know the IP address of the print server.

a Start your web browser.

b Type http://printer_ip_address/ into your browser. (Where printer_ip_address is the IP address or the node name)

„ For example: http://192.168.1.2/ (if the printer’s IP address is 192.168.1.2.)

Note

• If you have edited the hosts file on your computer or are using a Domain Name System, you can also enter the DNS name of the print server. As the print server supports TCP/IP and NetBIOS, you can also enter the NetBIOS name of the print server. The NetBIOS name can be seen on the printer settings page. The NetBIOS name assigned is the first 15 characters of the node name and by default it will appear as “BRNxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wired network or “BRWxxxxxxxxxxxx” for a wireless network.

Creates bar codes or expanded characters according to the segment of parameters ‘n ... n’. For more information about parameters, see the following Definition of Parameters. This command must end with the

‘ \ ’ code (5CH).

Definition of parameters

This bar code command can have the following parameters in the parameter segment (n ... n). As parameters are effective within the single command syntax ESC i n ... n \, they do not apply in the bar code commands.

If certain parameters are not given, they take the preset settings. The last parameter must be the bar code data start (‘b’ or ‘B’) or the expanded character data start (‘l’ or ‘L’). Other parameters can be given in any sequence. Each parameter can start with a lower-case or upper-case character, for example, ‘t0’ or ‘T0’, ‘s3’ or ‘S3’ and so one.

Bar code data start

n = ‘b’ or ‘B’

Data that follows ‘b’ or ‘B’ is read in as bar code data. Bar code data must end with the ‘ \ ’ code (5CH), which also ends this command. The acceptable bar code data is determined by the bar code mode selected by ‘t’ or ‘T’.

„ When CODE 39 is chosen with the parameter ‘t0’ or ‘T0’

Forty three characters ‘0’ to ‘9’, ‘A’ to ‘Z’, ‘-’, ‘ . ’, ‘ (space)’, ‘$’, ‘ / ’, ‘+’, and ‘%’ can be accepted as bar code data. Other characters will cause a data error. The number of characters for bar codes is not limited. The bar code data automatically starts and ends with an asterisk ‘ * ’ (start character and stop character). If the received data has an asterisk ‘ * ’ at the beginning or end, the asterisk is regarded as a start character or stop character.

„ When Interleaved 2 of 5 is selected with the parameter ‘t1’ or ‘T1’:

Ten numerical characters ‘0’ to ‘9’ can be accepted as bar code data. Other characters cause a data error.

The number of characters for bar codes is not limited. This mode of bar codes needs even characters. If the bar code data has odd characters, ‘0’ is automatically added to the end of the bar code data.

„ When FIM (US-Post Net) is selected with the parameter ‘t3’ or ‘T3’

Characters ‘A’ to ‘D’ are valid and one digit of data can be printed. Upper-case and lower-case alphabet characters can be accepted.

„ When Post Net (US-Post Net) is selected with the parameter ‘t4’ or ‘T4’

Numbers ‘0’ to ‘9' can be data and it must end with a check digit. ‘?’ can be used instead of the check digit.

Appendix

„ When EAN 8, EAN 13, or UPC A is selected with the parameter ‘t5’ or ‘T5’

Ten numbers ‘0’ to ‘9’ can be accepted as bar code data. The number of characters for bar codes is limited as follows:

EAN 8: Total 8 digits (7 digits + 1 check digit)

EAN 13: Total 13 digits (12 digits + 1 check digit)

UPC A: Total 12 digits (11 digits + 1 check digit)

A number of characters other than those stated above will cause a data error that results in the bar code data being printed as normal print data. If the check digit is not correct, the printer decides the correct check digit automatically so that the correct bar code data will be printed. When EAN13 is selected, adding

‘+’ and a two-digit or five-digit number after the data can create an add-on code.

„ When UPC-E is selected with the parameter ‘t6’ or ‘T6’:

The numbers ‘0’ to ‘9’ can be accepted as bar code data.

Eight digits

1 2

(standard format) The first character must be ‘0’ and the data must end with a check digit.

Total eight digits = ‘0’ plus 6 digits plus 1 check digit.

The first character and the last check digit are removed from the eight digit data.

Six digits 2

2

‘?’ can be used instead of a check digit.

Adding ‘+’ and two-digit or five-digit number after the data creates an add-on code.

„ When Codebar is chosen with the parameter ‘t9’ or ‘T9’

Characters ‘0’ to ‘9’, ‘-’, ‘ . ’, ‘$’, ‘/’, ‘+’, ‘ : ’ can be printed. Characters ‘A’ to ‘D’ can be printed as a startstop code, which can be upper case or lower case. If there is no start-stop code, errors will happen. A check digit cannot be added and using ‘?’ causes errors.

„ When Code 128 Set A, Set B, or Set C is selected with the parameter ‘t12’ or ‘T12’, ‘t13’ or ‘T13’, or ‘t14’ or ‘T14’

Code 128 sets A, B and C can be individually selected. Set A shows characters Hex 00 to 5F. Set B includes characters Hex 20 to 7F. Set C includes the pairs 00 to 99. Switching is allowed between the code sets by sending %A, %B, or %C. FNC 1, 2, 3, and 4 are produced with %1, %2, %3, and %4. The SHIFT code, %S, allows temporary switching (for one character only) from set A to set B and vice versa. The ‘%’ character can be encoded by sending it twice.

„ When ISBN (EAN) is selected with the parameter ‘t130’ or ‘T130’

The same rules apply as for ‘t5’ or ‘T5’.

„ When ISBN (UPC-E) is selected with the parameter ‘t131’ or ‘T131’:

The same rules apply as for ‘t6’ or ‘T6’.

„ When EAN 128 set A, set B or set C is selected with the parameter ‘t132’ or ‘T132’, ‘t133’ or ‘T133’ or ‘t134’ or ‘T134’

The same rules apply as for ‘t12’ or ‘T12’, ‘t13’ or ‘T13’, or ‘t14’ or ‘T14’.
