Pursuant to this limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts,

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

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.

will VOID the Warranty. (Refer to your Operation Manual 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 Operation Manual for proper packaging.)

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

About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little
mysterious. Soon, you’ll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone line,
and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
Custom Features
Do You Have Voice Mail on the Phone Line?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line on which you will install your new fax
machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will
conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls.
Why Should There Be Trouble?
Since both fax machines and Voice Mail pick up the line at the number of rings
you have set, each of them has the ability to keep the other from receiving calls.
For example, if your Voice Mail is set to answer after two rings and your fax
machine is set to answer after four, your Voice Mail will keep your fax machine
from receiving faxes. If you set Voice Mail and the Brother machine to answer
at the same number of rings, there is no way of knowing which one will answer
first. It is important to remember that neither Voice Mail nor the fax machine
can pass the call back to the other after the call has been answered.
How Can You Avoid Possible Problems?
A very good way to avoid a problem like the one mentioned previously is to get
a second phone number on your present phone line. Many people with Voice
Mail opt for this choice, which is called “Distinctive Ring”, and they are very
Another way to avoid a possible problem is to replace your Voice Mail with an
answering machine. Your Brother fax machine is designed to work in tandem
with an answering machine or TAD (telephone answering device).

Fax Tones and Handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the machine sends fax calling tones (CNG
tones)—soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when
you dial and press Fax Start; they continue for about 60 seconds after dialing.
During that time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the
receiving machine. Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you
are sending CNG tones over the phone line. You’ll soon learn to listen for these
soft beeps each time you answer a phone on your fax line, so you can know if
you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones-loud, chirping sounds. A
receiving fax chirps for about 60 seconds over the phone line, and the LCD
shows RECEIVING. If your machine is set to the FAX mode, it will answer
every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs
up, your machine continues to send the “chirps” for about 60 seconds, and the
screen continues to display RECEIVING. To cancel the receiving mode, press
Stop/Exit.
When your machine answers in FAX/TEL mode, the machine listens for CNG
tones and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax “handshake” is the time in which the sending machine’s CNG tones and
the receiving machine’s “chirps” overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4
seconds, so the machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the
fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones
only last for about 60 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s
important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as
possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax
line, your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is answered.
Pay special attention to the directions in the Assembly and Connections chapter
for connecting a TAD to your machine.
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the machine to check the
integrity of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are
possible only between machines that both have the ECM feature. If they do, you
may send and receive fax messages that are continuously checked for their
integrity. Sufficient memory must be available in your machine for this feature
to work.

Choosing a Location
Place your 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 telephone jack and a
standard, grounded power outlet.
Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters,
air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the machine
to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Make sure nothing blocks
the flow of air from the fan on the sides of the machine. Do not connect your
machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers.
Disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not
connect your 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.

Connecting an External Telephone
Your machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone.
However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering
device) directly to your machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT.
on the left side of the machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows EXT. TEL IN USE,
and, if the machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect a call on
the external phone and switch to the machine, press Hook.
Connecting an External TAD
(Telephone Answering Device)
Sequence
You might choose to connect an answering system. When you have anexternal
TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls. The
machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine
takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the
machine lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller
can leave you a voice message.
The TAD must answer within four rings (the recommended setting is two rings).
The machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and
with four rings there are only 8–10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax
“handshake.” Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this manual for
recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver
feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds 4 rings.
Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the left side of the machine in the jack
labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a
wall jack.
If You Subscribe to your Telephone Company’s Distinctive Ring Service:
You may connect an external TAD to a separate wall jack only if you subscribe
to your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service, have registered the
distinctive ring pattern on your machine, use that number as a fax number and
have set your machine’s Receive mode to MANUAL. The recommended
setting is three or four rings on the external TAD when you have the telephone
company’s Distinctive Ring service.
If You Do Not Subscribe to Distinctive Ring Service:
You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your Brother machine. If your
TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to
control the phone line. (See illustration on Page 2-11.)

Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the machine in
the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the
TAD’s telephone line jack, and not its telephone set jack.)
3
Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The machine’s Ring Delay setting
does not apply).
4
5
Record the outgoing message. (See below.)
Set the Receive mode to TAD by pressing Mode until both FAX and FAX/TEL
lights are on.
Recording Outgoing Message (OGM) on External TAD
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to
handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your
machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before
they stop.)
2
3
End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send
a fax by pressing 5 1 and Start.”
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second silence because
the machine cannot hear fax tones over a resonant or loud voice. You may try
omitting this pause, but if your machine has trouble receiving, then you must
rerecord the OGM to include it.

Special Line Considerations
Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines that
pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are usually passed
down or “rolled over” to the next available phone line in a preset order.
Your machine can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last number in
the sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not put the machine on any of the
other numbers; when the other lines are busy and a second fax call is received,
the fax call would be transferred to a line that does not have a fax machine. Your
machine will work best on a dedicated line.
Two-Line Phone System
A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers on
the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11)
or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your machine must be plugged into an RJ11
jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal in size and appearance and both may
contain four wires (black, red, green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in a
two-line phone and see if it can access both lines. If it can, you must separate the
line for your machine.
Converting Telephone Wall Outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 receptacle. The first two ways may
require assistance from the telephone company. You can change the wall outlets
from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an RJ11 wall outlet
installed and slave or jump one of the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter
into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1,
Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). If your machine is on Line 1, plug
the machine into L1 of the triplex adapter. If your machine is on Line 2, plug it
into L2 of the triplex adapter.

Installing Machine, External Two-Line TAD, and Two-Line
Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device
(TAD) and a two-line telephone, your machine must be isolated on one line at
both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the
machine on Line 2, which is our assumption in the following steps. The back of
the two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and
the other labeled L2. You will need at least three telephone line cords, the one
that came with your machine and two for your external two-line TAD. You will
need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
1
2
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your machine.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your fax machine into the L2 jack of
the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the left side of the
machine.
3
4
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1 jack of
the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line
TAD.
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack
of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the left side of
the machine.

triplex adapter. Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the

Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple
to connect the machine to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch Exchange),
we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system
and ask them to connect the machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate
line for the machine. You can then leave the machine in FAX mode to receive
faxes any time of day or night.
If the machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to
connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from being
activated each time a telephone call is received.
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If
your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the machine cannot be
made.
If you are installing the machine to work with a PBX:
1
2
3
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances
with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that
handles your PBX.
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is
recommended that the Receive Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls
should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
The machine may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.
Custom Features on Your Phone Line
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an
answering service, or an alarm system, or other custom feature on one phone
line, it may create a problem with the operation of your fax machine. (SeeI have
difficulty with custom features on a single line, Page 13-8.)

NOTICE
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful
for any person to use a computer or electronic device to send any
message via a telephone machine unless such messages clearly
contain, in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page,
or on the first page of the transmission, the date and time it is sent
and an identification of the business or other entity or other
individual sending the message and the telephone number of the
sending machines or such business, other entity, or individual.
In order to program this information into your machine, you should
complete the steps described on pages 4-2 and 4-3.

Choosing the Handset Volume (For Volume Amplify)
Before you begin to use the machine, you must decide if you need to set the
handset volume to AMPLIFY:ON for a user who is hearing-impaired. The
AMPLIFY:ON volume level complies with FCC standards.
VOLUME AMPLIFY: OFF
This default setting is appropriate if none of the users are hearing-impaired.
During a conversation, users can press Volume High or Low on the control
panel to adjust the volume to LOW or HIGH. When the handset is replaced, the
handset volume will remain until you change it again.
VOLUME AMPLIFY: ON—TEMPORARY
This setting is appropriate if some of the users are hearing-impaired. During a
conversation, users can press Volume High or Low on the control panel to
adjust the volume to LOW, HIGH or AMPLIFY. When the handset is
replaced, the handset volume returns to the default setting of LOW.
VOLUME AMPLIFY:ON—PERMANENT
Choose VOL AMPLIFY:ON—PERMANENT if all of the users are hearing-
impaired. During a conversation, users can press Volume High or Low on the
control panel to adjust the volume to LOW, HIGH or AMPLIFY. When the
handset is replaced, the handset volume returns to the default setting of
AMPLIFY.
When you press Volume High or Low on the control panel to adjust the
volume, the display shows the setting you are choosing. Each key press changes
the volume to the next setting.
WARNING
It is important that you do not choose PERMANENT unless all the users
are hearing-impaired. Otherwise, the default setting of AMPLIFY may
damage the hearing of some users.

ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the
machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line

Easy Receive
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start when you answer
a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few seconds.
When you see RECEIVING on the LCD or when you hear “chirps” through the
handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack, just replace the
handset. Your machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the machine to
receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or
external phone. Selecting SEMI lets the machine receive the call only if you’ve
answered it at the Brother machine. Selecting OFF means you’ll have to
activate the machine yourself, by pressing Fax Start—OR—by pressing
5 1 if you are not at the machine.
If you’ve set this feature to ON, but your machine doesn’t automatically connect
a fax call when you lift an external or extension phone handset, press the Fax
Receive code 5 1. At the machine, lift the handset and then press Fax Start.
If you send faxes from a computer on the same phone line and your Brother
machine intercepts them, set Easy Receive to OFF.

Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from Extension Telephone or External Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone (or on an external phone in the
EXT. jack), you can make your machine take over by using the Fax Receive
Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the machine starts to
If the machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use
the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At
the machine’s phone, press Fax Start, then hang up. At an extension phone,
press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external
phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the LCD shows
RECEIVING) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Fax Start
to send the fax.)
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double-
ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If you’re at the machine, you can lift
the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T
Ring Time and then press # 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is on the
line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the machine by
pressing 5 1.
Changing Remote Codes
Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset Fax
Receive Code is 5 1. The preset Telephone Answer Code is # 5 1.

Polling
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can
use your machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone poll your
machine.
All parties involved in polling need to set up their fax machines to accommodate
polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a fax, they pay for the
call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the polling function.

Before You Begin
Before you begin sending faxes, please be sure to read all the instructions and
cautions listed below for placing originals in the automatic document feeder.
Using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)
I Documents must be between 5.8 and 8.5 inches wide between 3.9 and 14.1
inches long. Your machine can scan an image only 8.15 inches wide, regardless
of how wide the paper is.
I Fan the pages before
placing them in the ADF.
I Make sure you insert
documents face down, top
edge first.
I Adjust the paper guides to
fit the width of your
document.
I The ADF (automatic
document feeder) can hold up to 30 Pages, feeding each one individually
through the machine. If you “Stagger” the pages, the ADF can hold up to 50
pages. Use standard (17 lb–24 lb) paper when using the ADF. If you’re using
heavier paper, feed each sheet individually to prevent paper jams.
DO NOT use curled, wrinkled, folded or ripped paper, or paper with staples,
paper clips, paste or tape attached. DO NOT use cardboard, newspaper or fabric.
I Make sure documents written in ink are completely dry.
I Before you send a fax press Resolution to select the resolution for the
If you send faxes from a computer on the same phone line and your Brother
machine intercepts them, set Easy Receive to OFF.

Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax
numbers. Using the Broadcast key, you can include Groups, One Touch
locations, Speed Dial locations, plus up to 50 manually dialed numbers.
However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs in memory and the
number of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the
maximum locations available, you will not be able to set up transmissions using
The easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys, you can include One Touch,
Speed Dial, and manually, dialed numbers in the same broadcast. You must
press Broadcast between each of these locations. Use the Telephone Index to
help you choose the numbers easily.
After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed
automatically to let you know the results.
I To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop/Exit. The LCD asks if you
want to cancel all locations or the location that is being sent.
I Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep in
mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations you can

Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers
Sometimes you may want to choose from among several long distance carriers
when you make a call. Rates may vary depending upon the time and destination.
To take advantage of low rates, you can store the access codes or long-distance
carriers as One Touch and Speed Dial numbers. You can store these long dialing
sequences by dividing them and setting them up separately in any combination.
You can even include manual dialing using the dial pad. The combined number
For example, you store “555” on One Touch key 03 and “7000” on One Touch
key 04. If you press One Touch 03 04 and Fax Start you can dial “555-7000”.

To temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with
manual dialing using the dial pad. For example, to change the number to 555-7001
you could press One Touch 03 and then press

Custom Features
Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone
services offered by some telephone companies.
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an
answering service, or on alarm system custom feature on your telephone line, it may
create a problem in the operation of your machine. (See I have difficulty with
If you have Voice Mail on you phone line, please read the following carefully.
Distinctive Ring
The term “Distinctive Ring” is used by Brother to identify a phone company
service that is given many names, depending on the Telephone Company you are
using. For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, Teen-
Ring, Indent-a-Call or Indent-a-Ring.
What Does Your Telephone Company’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
Your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service allows more than one
number to be on the same phone line. If you need more than one phone
number, it is an inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional line.
Each phone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which
phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number
for your fax machine.
Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.
Note
What Does Brother’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your
machine to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring
service. You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receiving only
faxes.
You must purchase your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service before

you program the Brother machine to work with it.

Do You Have Voice Mail?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line you on which will install your new
machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine
will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, this
Distinctive Ring feature allows the use of more than one number on your
line, so both Voice Mail and the fax machine can coexist peacefully. If each
one has a separate phone number, neither will interfere with the other’s work.
If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring Service from the telephone company,
you will need to follow the directions below to “register” the new Distinctive
Ring pattern they provided, so your fax machine can recognize its incoming
calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can
switch it off temporarily and later turn it back on. When you get a new fax
number, make sure you reset this setting.
Note
Before You Choose the Ring Pattern to Register
You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the machine. Some ring
patterns cannot be registered. Please refer to some popular ring pattern examples
that will be provided from the phone company in the USA and Canada that are
shown in the Brother compatibility table below.
Ring
Pattern
Rings

long - long

short - long - short
short - short - long

If the ring pattern the phone company provided cannot be registered by the fax,
please check for other available ring pattern choices from the phone
company.
Note
I The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
I The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because the fax must
«listen» to the ring pattern (compare it to the pattern that was “registered”).
(Other telephones on the line will ring.)
I If you program the fax machine correctly, it will recognize the registered ring
pattern of the “fax number” within 2 ring patterns and then automatically answer
with a fax tone. When the “voice number” is called, the fax machine will not
interrupt the call.

Very Important
If you have Voice Mail, or a TAD (Telephone Answering Device) and want to
keep one of your phone numbers dedicated only to fax calls, you must leave the
machine in MANUAL mode at all times while using the Distinctive Ring
Feature. Here’s why: Manual mode will never pick up a call by itself, since it is
«Neutral». When the machine is in this «neutral» mode, the Distinctive Ring
Feature can be activated. The distinctive ring feature is actually an answering
mode. So, do not activate FAX mode or FAX/TEL mode while using distinctive
ring; otherwise, the fax machine will answer calls for all the numbers.

Caller ID
The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber
service offered by many local phone companies. This service provides the
name or telephone number of your caller on the LCD as the line rings.
After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (or name,
if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information
disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller
ID memory.
I You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name.
I OUT OF AREA display means call originates outside your Caller ID service
area.
I PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked
transmission of information.

If both the name and number are received, the LCD shows only the name. You

If you are sending or receiving a fax message while
a custom feature signal comes through on the line,
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the
fax data. Brother’s ECM feature should help
overcome this problem. This condition is related to
the telephone system industry and is common to all
devices that send and receive information on a

avoiding a slight interruption is crucial to your

Replacing the Toner Cartridge
The machine can print up to 6,000 pages using a high yield toner cartridge.
When the toner cartridge is running low, the display showsTONER LOW. The
machine is supplied with a standard toner cartridge that must be replaced after
approximately 3,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your
average document type (i.e., standard letter, detailed graphics).
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 the toner cartridge tightly so 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 when you replace the toner
cartridge.

Replacing the Drum Unit
The machine uses a drum unit to create print images on paper. If the LCD shows
CHANGE DRUM SOON, the drum unit is near the end of its life and it is time
to purchase a new one.
Even if the LCD shows CHANGE DRUM SOON, 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
CHANGE DRUM SOON is shown), then the drum unit should be replaced.
You should clean the machine when you replace the drum unit.
(See Page 13-19.)
Caution
When removing the drum unit, handle it carefully because it contains toner. If
toner scatters and your hands or clothes get dirty, immediately wipe or wash
with cold water.
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 up to 20,000 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.
