Advice for Preparation and Simple Use Guide

Choosing a Location

Place the machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the machine near a standard earthed electrical socket.

Avoid placing the machine where it may be knocked. Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers as disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless phones. Ensure the airflow from the fan on the right hand side of the machine is not impeded.

We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the product against damage caused by a lightning strike.

Connecting the Power Cord

This machine must be fitted with an earthed plug.

IMPORTANT: If you need to remove the moulded mains plug in order to fit an appropriate type, you must discard the moulded plug immediately having cut it off, in order that it is not inadvertently inserted into a live socket, thus presenting a shock hazard. The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code.

• Green-and-yellow : Earth

• Blue : Neutral

• Brown : Live

As the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured green-and-yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter “E” or by the safety 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. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.

Using the machine as a Printer

Special Printing Features

Windows® Printing

The dedicated printer driver for Microsoft® Windows® 95, 98, 98SE, Me, 2000 Professional and Windows NT can easily install them into your Windows Guide). The driver supports our unique compression mode to enhance printing speed in Windows applications, and allows you to set various printer settings including economy printing mode and custom paper size.

Brother Resource Manager

The Brother Resource Manager application must be running for you to use the machine with your Windows Manager, as needed. The Resource Manager allows the single bi-directional Parallel port on the machine to simulate a Communications port for scanning and to simulate a Parallel port for Windows

Enhanced Memory Management

The machine has its own Data Compression Technology, which automatically compresses graphic data and downloads font data efficiently into the MFC’s memory. You can avoid memory errors and print most full-page, 600 dpi graphic and text data, including larger fonts, with the machine’s standard memory.

Workstation Version 4.0 are available on the CD-ROM supplied with the MFC. You

PRINTER/SCANNER

Printing From Your PC

Paper Tray

The machine’s paper tray can feed plain paper and transparencies. When the machine receives data from your computer, it begins the print process by loading paper from the paper tray.

■ Select the print command from your PC. Your PC sends a print command and data to the machine. The screen displays RECEIVING DATA.

If there are more pages, the machine begins to print the next page automatically.

You may select the proper paper source, paper size, and orientation in your application software.

If your application software does not support your custom paper size, select the next larger paper size. Then adjust the print area by changing the right and left margins in your application software. (See Acceptable Paper, page 29.)

When you use labels, envelopes, card stock or thicker paper, be sure to use the manual feed slot.

Using the machine as a Printer 23

Two-Sided Printing (Manual Duplexing)

The supplied printer driver for Windows® 95, 98, 98SE, Me and for Windows NT® Workstation Version 4.0 enables manual duplex printing. (For more information, see the Help screen for the printer driver.)

The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first. Then, the Windows driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or very thick paper is not recommended.

Please ensure that after making the first print of your “DUPLEX PRINT JOB” the printed sheet goes into the paper tray face-up. Please note the correct orientation, as in the diagram.

When you use the manual duplex function, it is possible that a paper jam may occur or the printer quality might not be satisfactory.

Manual Feed Slot

The machine has a manual feed slot above the paper tray. You can load envelopes and special print media one at a time into this slot. You do not have to remove paper from the paper tray. (See Acceptable Paper, page 29.)

Use the manual feed slot to print or copy on labels, envelopes, card stock or thicker paper. (See Printing on Thicker Paper and Card Stock, page 26.)

If you use labels and envelopes, they must be of a type suitable for use with a laser printer. If you use incorrect types it is possible to damage or contaminate the drum surface and cause printing problems.
