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.
Recommended media 2
2
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.

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.

Page 19
Loading documents and paper
Handling and using media 2
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.
DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:
Improper Setup
• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or
irregularly shaped paper
Paper capacity of the output paper tray
Up to 50 sheets of 20 lb Letter or 80 g/m2 A4
paper.
Transparencies or photo paper must be
picked up from the output paper tray one
page at a time to avoid smudging.

Printing photos from a memory card or USB Flash memory drive
Memory cards or a USB Flash memory drive folder structure5
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.)

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.)
®
Type II is not supported.
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
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.

use liquid or aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.
5 DO NOT use this product near water.
6 DO NOT place this product on an unstable cart, stand, or table. The product may fall, causing
serious damage to the product.
7 Slots and openings in the casing and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation. To ensure

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.
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.

Make sure you pull out the paper support

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.
If ink gets in your eyes, wash them out with
water at once and call a doctor if you are
concerned.
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.
WARNING
CAUTION
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. If
damage is caused to the print head or other
parts of this machine as a result of using
incompatible products with this machine,
any repairs required as a result may not be
covered by the warranty.
