Before Using Your Machine

Before attempting any printing operation, confirm the following:
Make sure you have installed the correct software and drivers for your machine.
For USB or network cable users: Make sure the interface cable is physically secure.
Selecting the correct type of paper
For high quality printing, it is important to select the correct type of paper. Be sure to read the information about acceptable paper before buying paper, and to determine the printable area depending on the settings in the printer driver or in the application you use to print.
Simultaneous printing, scanning and faxing
Your machine can print from your computer while sending or receiving a fax into memory or while scanning a document into the computer. Fax sending will not be stopped during printing from your computer. However, when the machine is copying or receiving a fax on paper, it pauses the printing operation, and then continues printing when copying or fax receiving has finished.
DCP models do not support the fax feature.
Firewall (Windows)
If your computer is protected by a firewall and you are unable to network print, network scan, or PC-FAX, you may need to configure the firewall settings. If you are using the Windows Firewall and you installed the drivers using the steps in the installer, the necessary firewall settings have been already set. If you are using any other personal firewall software, see the User's Guide for your software or contact the software manufacturer.

Acceptable Paper and Other Print Media

The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you use in the machine. To get the best print quality for the settings you have selected, always set the Paper Type to match the type of
paper you load. You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, recycled paper, 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) and glossy paper, be sure to select the correct print media in the printer driver or in the application you use to print, or the Paper Type setting on the machine.
When you print on photo paper, load one extra sheet of the same photo paper in the paper tray.
When using 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.
