What Brother will do:

First 2 Years If the problem reported concerning your

Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Item(s) is covered by this warranty and problem with your Machine to Brother or an Authorized Service Center within 2 years from the original purchase date or (ii) you first reported the problem with the accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items to Brother or an Authorized Service Center within the earlier of 90 days from the original purchase date or the rated life of the item, Brother or its Authorized Service Center will repair or replace the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Item(s) at no charge to you for parts or labor. The decision as to whether to repair or replace the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Item(s) is made by Brother in its sole discretion. Brother reserves the right to supply a refurbished or remanufactured replacement Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Item(s) and use refurbished parts provided such replacement products conform to the manufacturer's specifications for new product/parts. The repaired or replacement Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Item(s) will be returned to you freight prepaid or made available for you to pick up at a conveniently located Authorized Service Center.

2 Years to 3 Years: If the problem reported concerning your

Machine is covered by this warranty and first reported the problem after 2 years, but before 3 years from the original purchase date, Brother or its Authorized Service Center will repair the Machine at no charge to you for parts or labor. Brother reserves the right to use refurbished parts provided such refurbished parts conform to the manufacturer's specifications for new product/parts. The repaired Machine will be returned to you freight prepaid or made available for you to pick up at a conveniently located Authorized Service Center.

The foregoing are your sole (i.e., only) and exclusive remedies under this warranty.

What happens when Brother elects to replace your Machine:

When a replacement Machine is authorized by Brother, and you have delivered the Machine to an Authorized Service Center, the Authorized Service Center will provide you with a replacement Machine after receiving one from Brother. If you are dealing directly with Brother, Brother will send to you a replacement Machine with the understanding that you will, after receipt of the replacement Machine, supply the required proof of purchase information, together with the Machine that Brother agreed to replace. You are then expected to pack the Machine that Brother agreed to replace in the package from the replacement Machine and return it to Brother using the shipping bill supplied by Brother in accordance with the instructions provided by Brother. Since you will be in possession of two machines, Brother will require that you provide a valid major credit card number. Brother will issue a hold against the credit card account number that you provide until Brother receives your original Product and determines that your original Product is entitled to warranty coverage. Your credit card will be charged up to the cost of a new Product only if: (i) you do not return your original Product to Brother within five (5) business days; (ii) the problems of your original Product are not covered by the warranty; (iii) the proper packaging instructions are not followed and has caused damage to the product; or (iv) the warranty period on your original Product has expired or has not been sufficiently validated with a copy of the proof of purchase (bill of sale). The replacement Machine you receive (even if refurbished or remanufactured) will be covered by the balance of the warranty period remaining on the original Product, plus an additional thirty (30) days. You will keep the replacement Machine that is sent to you and your original Machine shall become the property of Brother. Retain your original

Accessory Items and a copy of the return shipping bill, signed by the courier.

Limitations:

Brother is not responsible for damage to or loss of any equipment, media, programs or data related to the use of this Product. Except for that repair or replacement as described above, Brother shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages or specific relief. Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

THIS WARRANTY IS GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WRITTEN OR ORAL, WHETHER EXPRESSED BY AFFIRMATION, PROMISE, DESCRIPTION, DRAWING, MODEL OR SAMPLE. ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THIS ONE, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED.

replaces all other agreements and understandings that you may have with Brother or its representatives.

 This warranty gives you certain rights and

you may also have other rights that may vary from state to state.

 This Warranty (and Brother's obligation to

you) may not be changed in any way unless you and Brother sign the same piece of paper in which we (1) refer to this Product and your bill of sale date, (2) describe the change to this warranty and (3) agree to make that change.

BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER/FACSIMILE MACHINE

LIMITED WARRANTY

(Canada only)

Pursuant to this limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts, Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its Authorized Service Centers, will repair this MFC/Facsimile machine free of charge if defective in material or workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables (including, without limitation, print cartridges, print head, toner and drum) or damage caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation, any damage caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other than a Brother Authorized Service Representative, or from the use of supplies or consumable items that are non-Brother products. Operation of the MFC/Facsimile machine in excess of the specifications or with the Serial Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser. In order to obtain warranty service, the MFC/Facsimile machine must be delivered or shipped freight prepaid by the end user/purchaser to a “Brother” Authorized Service Center, together with your Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.

For laser products: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit on applicable models) during shipping will cause severe damage to the MFC/Facsimile and will VOID the Warranty. (Refer to your User’s Guide for proper packaging.)

For ink-jet products: Do not remove the ink cartridges during shipping. Damage to your print head resulting from packing without the ink cartridges will VOID your warranty. (Refer to your User’s Guide for proper packaging.)

BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY WAIVED.

No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its Authorized Service Centers, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create another warranty or modify this warranty. This warranty states Brother’s entire liability and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the MFC/Facsimile machine to operate properly.

Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of this MFC/Facsimile machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the use of or inability to use the product, even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the possibility of such damages. Since some Provinces do not allow the above limitation of liability, such limitation may not apply to you.

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from Providence to Providence.

Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centers throughout Canada. For Technical Support or for the name and location of your nearest Authorized Service Center call 1–877–BROTHER.

Using the scanner glass 2

You can use the scanner glass to scan or copy the pages of a book or single sheets of paper. Documents can be up to 8.5 inches wide and up to 14 inches long (215.9 mm wide to 355.6 mm long).

To use the scanner glass, the ADF must be empty.

a Lift the document cover.

Acceptable paper and other media 2

Print quality may vary according to the type of paper you are using.

You can use the following types of media: plain paper, transparencies, labels or envelopes.

For best results, follow the steps below:

 Use paper made for plain paper copying.  Use paper that is 20 to 24 lb (75 to

90 g/m

 Use labels or transparencies which are

designed for use in laser printers.

 When using transparencies remove each

sheet immediately to prevent smudging or paper jams.

 Avoid touching the printed surface of the

paper immediately after printing.

 Use long grain paper with a neutral Ph

value, and a moisture content of approx. 5%.

b Using the document guidelines on the

left, center the document face down on the scanner glass.

c Close the document cover.

If the document is a book or is thick, do not slam the cover or press on it.

CAUTION

Recommended media 2

To get the best print quality, we suggest using the following paper.

Paper Type Item

Plain paper Xerox 4200DP 20 lb

Hammermill Laser Paper 24 lb

)

Chapter 2

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.

 Avoid touching either side of

transparencies, as this can decrease the print quality.

 Only use transparencies recommended

for laser printing.

 Only use sharply creased envelopes.

Improper Setup

Do not use any of the following paper, as they will cause paper feed problems:

damaged, coated, curled, wrinkled, highly textured, irregularly shaped, or paper that has previously been printed on by a printer.

Troubleshooting and routine maintenance

d When you find the substance on the

drum surface that matches the print sample, gently dab the surface of the OPC drum with a cotton swab that is lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol.

The OPC drum is photosensitive so do not touch it with your fingers.

Do not use a scrubbing or wiping motion because this might damage the drum.

DO NOT clean the surface of the OPC drum with a sharp object, such as a ballpoint pen, because this might cause permanent damage to the drum unit.

CAUTION

Replacing the toner cartridge (TN-550/TN-580) C

The TN-580 toner cartridge can print approximately 7,000 pages using a high yield toner cartridge. When the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows Toner Low. The machine is supplied with a standard TN-550 toner cartridge that must be replaced after approximately 3,500 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your average type of document (i.e., standard letter, detailed graphics).

Note

It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the Toner Low warning.

Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations, keeping it separate from domestic waste. Be sure to seal up the toner cartridge tightly so that toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge. If you have questions, call your local waste disposal office.

We recommend that you clean the machine and corona wire of the drum unit when you replace the toner cartridge. (See Cleaning the

laser scanner window on page 70 and Cleaning the corona wire on page 71.)

DO NOT put a toner cartridge into a fire. It could explode, resulting in injuries.

WARNING

Troubleshooting and routine maintenance

CAUTION

Put the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering the toner.

Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, wipe or wash it off with cold water at once.

CAUTION

Brother strongly recommends that you do not refill the toner cartridge provided with your machine. We also strongly recommend that you continue to use only Genuine Brother Brand replacement toner cartridges (TN-550/TN-580). 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.

Wait to unpack the toner cartridge until immediately before you put it in the machine. If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a long time, the toner life will be shortened.

c Unpack the new toner cartridge. Put the

used toner cartridge into the aluminum bag and discard it according to local regulations.

d Gently rock the toner cartridge from side

to side five or six times to spread the toner evenly inside the cartridge.

e Pull off the protective cover.

f Put the new toner cartridge firmly into

the drum unit until you hear it lock into place. If you put it in properly, the lock lever will lift automatically.

DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustrations to prevent any degradation to the print quality.

g Clean the primary corona wire inside the

drum unit by gently sliding the blue tab from left to right and right to left several times. Be sure to return the blue tab to the home position (b).

h Put the drum unit and toner cartridge

assembly back in the machine.

i Close the front cover.

Replacing the drum unit (DR-520) C

The machine uses a drum unit to create print images on paper. If the LCD shows Drum Near End, the drum unit is near the end of its life and it is time to buy a new one.

Even if the LCD shows Drum Near End, you may be able to continue printing without having to replace the drum unit for a while. However, if there is a noticeable deterioration in the output print quality (even before Drum Near End appears), then the drum unit should be replaced. You should clean the machine when you replace the drum unit. (See Cleaning the laser scanner window on page 70.)

While removing the drum unit, handle it carefully because it may contain toner. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, wipe or wash it off with cold water at once.

CAUTION

Note

The drum unit is a consumable item, and it is necessary to replace it periodically. There are many factors that determine the actual drum life, such as temperature, humidity, type of paper and how much toner you use for the number of pages per print job. The estimated drum life is approximately 25,000 pages. The actual number of pages your drum will print may be significantly less than these estimates. 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.
