Acceptable paper and other media

The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you are using 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 Brother paper.

When you print on inkjet paper (coated paper), transparencies and photo paper, be sure to choose the correct media in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in the Paper Type setting of the menu.

When you print on Brother photo paper, load the instruction sheet included with the photo paper in the paper tray first, and then put the photo paper on the instruction sheet.

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.

Recommended media

To get the best print quality, we suggest using Brother paper. (See 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 media

Store paper in its original packaging, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

The coated side of photo paper is shiny. Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side. 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.

Loading envelopes and post cards
Loading envelopes

Use envelopes that weigh from 75 to 95 gsm.

Some envelopes need margin settings to be set in the application. Make sure you do a test print first.

CAUTION

DO NOT use any of the following types of envelopes, as they will cause paper feed problems:

If they are of a baggy construction.

That are embossed

(have raised writing on them).

That have clasps or staples.

That are pre-printed on the inside.

Glue

Double flap

 

 

Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.

16

How to load envelopes and post cards

a Before loading, press the corners and sides of the envelopes or post cards to make them as flat as possible.

Note

If the envelopes or post cards are ‘double-feeding’, put one envelope in the paper tray at a time.

b Put the envelopes or post cards into the paper tray with the address side down and the leading edge (top of the envelopes) in first. Slide the paper side guides (1) and paper length guide (2) to fit the size of the envelopes or post cards.

If you have problems when printing on envelopes, try the following suggestions:

a Open the envelope flap.

b Make sure the open flap is either to the side of the envelope or to the back edge of the envelope when printing.

c Adjust the size and margin in your application.

Removing small printouts from the machine

When the machine ejects small paper onto the output paper tray you may not be able to reach it. Make sure printing has finished, and then pull the tray completely out of the machine.
