Chapter 2

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 the 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

(See Paper Type on page 28).

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 top of 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.

Improper Setup

DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:

Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped paper

1 2 mm or longer

Extremely shiny or highly textured paper

Paper already printed on by a printer

Paper that cannot be arranged uniformly when stacked

That 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.

Printing photos from a memory card or USB Flash memory drive

Memory cards or a USB Flash memory drive folder structure

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).

PhotoCapture Center™ printing 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 or USB Flash memory drive.

CompactFlash® Type II is not supported.

This product supports xD-Picture Card™ Type M / Type H.

This product supports SecureDigital High Capacity.

The DPOF file on the memory cards must be in a valid format.

(See DPOF printing on page 40.)

Please be aware of the following:

When printing the INDEX or IMAGE, the PhotoCapture Center™ will print all the valid images, even if one or more images have been corrupted. A portion of the corrupted image may be printed. The corrupted image will not be printed.

(memory card users)

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 5 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.

(USB Flash memory drive users)

This machine supports USB Flash memory drives that have been formatted by Windows®.

Routine maintenance

Replacing the ink cartridges

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.

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 that an ink cartridge is empty, 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.

a Open the ink cartridge cover.

If one or more ink cartridges are empty, for example Black, the LCD shows

Ink Empty and Black.

70

b Pull the lock release lever down and take out the ink cartridge for the colour shown on the LCD.

c Open the new ink cartridge bag for the colour shown on the LCD, and then take out the ink cartridge.

d Remove the protective yellow cap (1).

M brother

f Lift the lock release lever and push it until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover.

71

g The machine will automatically reset the ink dot counter.

Note

If you replaced an ink cartridge, the LCD may ask you to verify that it was a brand new one. (For example,

Did You Change Black) For each new cartridge you installed, press + (Yes) to automatically reset the ink dot counter for that colour. If the ink cartridge you installed is not a brand new one, be sure to press - (No).

If the LCD shows No Cartridge after you install the ink cartridges, check that the ink cartridges are installed properly.

WARNING

If ink gets in your eyes, wash them out with water at once and call a doctor if you are concerned.

CAUTION

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 stains your skin or clothing, wash with soap or detergent at once.

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.

72

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.

Brother multifunction machines are designed to work with ink of a particular specification and will work to a level of optimum performance when used with genuine Brother Branded ink cartridges. Brother cannot guarantee this optimum performance if ink or ink cartridges of other specifications are used. Brother does not therefore recommend the use of cartridges other than genuine Brother Branded cartridges or the refilling of empty cartridges with ink from other sources.

Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance

Cleaning the print head

To maintain print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed. You can start the cleaning process manually if there is a print quality problem.

Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in the text or graphics on your printed pages. You can clean Black only, three colours at a time (Yellow/Cyan/Magenta), or all four colours at once.

Cleaning the print head consumes ink. Cleaning too often uses ink unnecessarily.

CAUTION

DO NOT touch the print head. Touching the print head may cause permanent damage and may void the print head's warranty.

Packing and shipping the machine

When you transport the machine, use the packing materials that came with your machine. If you do not pack the machine properly, you could void your warranty.

CAUTION

It is important to allow the machine to ‘park’ the print head after a print job. Listen carefully to the machine before unplugging it to make sure that all mechanical noise has stopped. Not allowing the machine to finish this parking process may lead to print problems and possible damage to the print head.

Replacing the ink cartridges on page 70.)

c Install the yellow protective part, lift each lock release lever and push it until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover.

78

CAUTION

If you are not able to find the yellow protective part, DO NOT remove the ink cartridges before shipping. It is essential that the machine be shipped with either the yellow protective part or the ink cartridges in position. Shipping without them will cause damage to your machine and may void your warranty.
