7Lift the lock release lever and gently push until
it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover.
Caution
• DO NOT take out the ink cartridge if you do not
need to replace it. 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 shake the ink cartridge. If ink stains your
skin or clothing, wash with soap or detergent at
once.
• DO NOT repeatedly insert and remove the
cartridge. If you do so, ink may seep out of the
cartridge.
• 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 with this
machine 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.
Note
If the LCD shows Install Black after you
install the ink cartridge, check that the ink cartridge
is installed correctly.
The machine will clean the ink tube system for
use for the first time. This process will occur
only once, the first time ink cartridge is
