This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Important – About the Interface Cable
This printer has been certified to comply with FCC standards, which are applied to the U.S.A. only. A shielded interface cable should be used according to FCC 15.27(C). In addition, a grounded plug should be plugged into a grounded AC outlet after checking the rating of the local power supply for the printer to operate properly and safely.
Caution
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Brother Industries, Ltd. could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Laser Safety (For 110–120 V Model Only)
This printer is certified as a Class I laser product under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means that the printer does not produce hazardous laser radiation.
Since radiation emitted inside the printer is completely confined within protective housings and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user operation.

Canadian Department of Communications Compliance Statement
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class B limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital Apparatus”, ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.
IMPORTANT (For U.K. only)
If the power cord supplied with this printer is not suitable for your electrical outlet, remove the plug from the mains cord and fit an appropriate three pin plug. If the replacement plug is intended to take a fuse then fit the same fuse as the original.
If a moulded plug is severed from the power cord then it should be destroyed because a plug with cut wires is dangerous if plugged into a live socket outlet. Do not leave it where a child might find it.
In the event of replacing the plug fuse, fit a fuse approved by ASTA to BS1362 with the same rating as the orginal fuse.
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug with the cover omitted.
WARNING - THIS PRINTER MUST BE PROPERLY EARTHED.
The wires in the mains cord are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Green and yellow : Ground Blue : Neutral Brown : Live
The colours of the wiring in the power lead of this printer may not correspond with the markings which identify the terminals in your plug. If you need to fit a different plug, proceed as follows.
Remove a length of the cord outer sheath, taking care not to damage the coloured insulation of the wires inside.
Cut each of the three wires to the appropriate length. If the construction of the plug permits, leave the green and yellow wire longer than the others so that, in the event that the cord is pulled out of the plug, the green and yellow wire will be the last to disconnect.
Remove a short section of the coloured insulation to expose the wires.
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter “E” or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and yellow.
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured red or brown.
The outer sheath of the cord must be secured inside the plug. The coloured wires should not hang out of the plug.

CHAPTER 3 CONTROL PANEL
OTHER CONTROL FEATURES
The printer has the following useful features:
Reprint Function
You can use the FF/CONT switch as a Reprint switch, so you can reprint the last printed page without sending it again from your computer.
After you have finished printing, press the SELECT switch to turn the printer off-line and press the FF/CONT switch. The printer starts reprinting the last printed page. If you press the FF/CONT switch one or more times during reprinting, the printer reprints the page as many times as you pressed the switch.
Note
The reprint data remains in the printer’s memory until the printer is reset, the emulation is changed, or some other settings are changed. After you have printed confidential data, be sure to reset the printer to clear it from the printer’s memory.
You can enable or disable this reprint function with the supplied Remote Printer Console program. See the software setup guide for more information about RPC.
Sleep Mode
Whether the printer is in the on-line or off-line state and the printer does not receive data for a certain period of time (time out), it enters sleep mode. Sleep mode acts as though the printer has been turned off. The factory set default time out is 15 or 2 minutes. (The default value varies depending on the area.) While the printer is in sleep mode, all the lamps are off, however the printer can still receive data from the computer. Receiving a print file or document automatically awakens the printer to start printing. Pressing any switch also awakens the printer.
Note
This printer has no power switch. The sleep mode handles the power control.
When the printer goes into sleep mode, the fan will not stop until the printer engine has cooled down.
Sleep mode allows the print engine to cool, so the temperature of your room and how long the printer has been in sleep mode affects the warm-up time. This warm-up time can take from 5 seconds to 60 seconds. The READY lamp blinks to indicate that the printer is warming up.
You can change the time out for the sleep mode with the supplied printer driver and Remote Printer Console program. See the Software setup guide for more information about drivers.

OTHER FEATURES SET BY OUR DRIVERS
Page Protection
If printed images are too complex to print, the printer may print a partical image on the paper. If this occurs, the printer loses print data and indicates the “print overrun error” by printing the error report. (See the chapter 6 “ALARM INDICATION AT A GLANCE”.)
The page protection feature allows the printer to create the image to be printed in memory before physically moving the paper through the printer. Therefore, page protection may eliminate the "PRINT OVERRUN" error.
The setting "AUTO" does not require the additional memory and it automatically uses page protection only when it is necessary. Occationally, when AUTO page protection is on, processing complex print data may be slightly delayed.
Note: When you set this setting to A4, Letter or Legal, the following capacity of memory is required.
300 dpi 600 dpi Letter/A4 2 Mbytes 6 Mbytes Legal 3 Mbytes 6 MBytes
If your printer does not have enough memory for page protection, your document may be printed at 300 dpi.
You can set this function through the followings.
The supplied printer driver for Windows 3.1
The supplied RPC program for DOS
For the details of the setting, see the relevant help screen for each.
APT (Advanced Photoscale Technology)
APT allows your printer produce fine gray scales to improve the appearance of print outs containing photographic image. Using this feature, the image is printed at 256 shades of gray at nearly like photographic quality.
This setting can be made by using the suppled Windows driver. Also, the demo file which can be opened within Windows Write is included on the supplied disk. Try printing it with the APT feature.

USER’S GUIDE
Questions Recommendation
The printer prints, but it prints incorrect information. Sometimes it prints a couple of characters and then ejects the page, etc.
This is an indication that your application printer emulation setting and the printer’s emulation do not match. Check in your application software to see which printer you have selected and to make sure the printer is set up correctly. Remember this printer emulates three widely used printer selections : HP LaserJet 4, Epson FX-850, and IBM Proprinter XL. A suggestion is to reset the printer to factory settings by using the RESET switch or by using the RPC to set the printer into HP emulation and then select the HP LaserJet 4
printer in your application software. The printer does not print when I press the Print Screen Key. (DATA lamp On)
Press the SELECT switch to turn the printer off-
line and press the FF/CONT switch. The data has
been sent to the printer but the printer did not
receive the Page Eject command (print screens do
not send this command.) The printer prints the first part of my document but doesn’t print the last page. (DATA lamp On)
This was a common problem with database
software and spreadsheet software when not
correctly set up. The data has been sent to the
printer but the printer did not receive the Page
Eject command. Press the SELECT switch to turn
the printer off-line and press the FF/CONT switch
to eject the page. Then check with your software
supplier on how to add a Page Eject ( or Form
Feed) command to the end of your print job. How can I change the User
Use the remote printer console (RPC) program. settings or default settings of the printer?
Setting up the Printer for Windows
Questions Recommendation
The printer does not work.

Check the followings:
The printer is plugged in.
The interface cable is securely connected
between the printer and computer.
There are no alarm conditions (blinking
lamps.)

Questions Recommendation
I cannot print from my application software.
If you are using Windows 3.1, make sure the supplied printer driver is installed and selected with your application software.
If you are using Windows 3.0 or earlier, make sure that proper printer driver is insatlled and selected to match the printer
emulation. How can I change the printer’s default settings? Sometimes I get a Print Overrun error when printing certain documents from Windows.
Exit to DOS and use the remote printer console program.
Change the following settings on the driver
and try again.
Page Protection Graphics Mode TrueType™ Mode User Printer TrueType™ Fonts
Reduce the print resolution or reduce the
complexity of your document and try again.
Expand the printer memory by installing
SIMM and turn page protection A4, Letter
or Legal through the supplied Windows
driver or RPC. Sometimes I get the Memory Full message. How can I correct this?
Change the following settings on the driver
and try again.
Page Protection Graphics Mode TrueType™ Mode User Printer TrueType™ Fonts
Another solution is to purchase more
memory.
Reduce the print resolution or reduce the
complexity of your document and try again.

Paper Handling
Questions Recommendations
I cannot print from my application software.
Check the PORT selection within the
Chooser : it should match the port you
physically attached the printer cable to.
Check the printer cable type (you should be
using a Local-Talk type cable.)
Questions Recommendations
The printer does not load paper.
Note if the ALARM and PAPER lamps are
blinking. If so, the multi-purpose sheet
feeder is out of paper. Load a new stack of
paper into the feeder.
If there is paper in the multi-purpose sheet
feeder, make sure it is straight. If the paper
is curled, you should straighten it before
printing.
Reduce the stack of paper in the multi-
purpose sheet feeder, then try again. The printer does not load paper from the manual feed slot. How can I load envelopes?
When the MANUAL lamp is blinking, press the FF/CONT switch for manual loading. Re-insert the paper firmly. You can load envelopes from either the multi­purpose sheet feeder or the manual feed slot. Your application software must be set up correctly to print on the envelope size you are using. This is usually done in the page setup or document setup menu of your software. Refer to your application manual.
What paper can I use? You can use plain paper, envelopes,
transparencies, labels, and organizer paper. For information on loading paper, see “Paper Handling” in Chapter 2.
How can I clear paper
See “PAPER JAMS” in this chapter.

Printing
Questions Recommendations
The printer prints unexpectedly or it prints garbage.
Make sure your application software is
correctly set up to use this printer and check
the printer driver settings or printer settings
in your application software.
Check the printer emulation settings. If you
can use the supplied RPC program, use it to
change the settings as required. Also, you
can print the current setting list from the
RPC program or Printer Control Panel.
You may clear the problem by resetting the
printer to user or factory settings. See
“Reset/Hex Dump Mode” in Chapter 3. The printer cannot print full pages of a document. An error message “Print Overrun” occurs.
The printer received a very complex print job and could not process part of the page. This may be solved by the following ways.
If you are using Windows 3.1 with the
supplied printer driver, change the settings for "Graphics Mode", "TrueType™ Mode" and "Use Printer TrueType™ Font".
Set the page protection mode to "AUTO" or
your document size.
Reduce the complexity of your document or
reduce the print resolution. The printer cannot print my spreadsheet. A "Memory Full" error message occurs.
Some applications download several types and sizes of fonts. This can use up your printer memory very quickly. Set the Page Protection to AUTO or your document size, reduce the number of font sizes within your application, reduce resolution, or purchase additional SIMM
for the printer. My headers or footers appear when I view my document on screen but do not show up when I print them.
Most laser printers have a restricted area that cannot be printed on. Usually the first two lines and last two lines of text cannot print. Adjust the top and bottom margins in your document to allow for this.

CHAPTER 6 TROUBLESHOOTING
Printed pages are stained at fixed intervals.
The problem may disappear . Try printing
multiple pages to clear this problem, if the
printer has not been used for a long time.
The surface of the drum has been scratched or
exposed to light. Replace the Drum Unit with a
new one.
Fig. 6-13 Stained at Fixed Interval
Certain environmental conditions such as humidity, high temperatures, etc. may cause the following situation to occur.
Printed pages are blurred at the center or either edge.
Make sure that the printer is placed on a
flat, horizontal surface.
Remove the drum unit with the toner
cartridge installed. Hold the unit horizontally with both hands and tap it firmly against a flat surface 3 or 4 times. Re-install the drum/toner unit and try printing again. If the print quality is not acceptable, please contact Brother customer cervice or your local authorized service center for further assistance.
