Power specifications are listed below. The specifications that apply to your machine
depend on your machine configuration. Connect the power plug only to a properly rated
power outlet. Otherwise, it can cause fire or electric shocks. If in doubt, contact your
Customer Support Center.

Never use multi-plug adaptors to plug multiple power plugs in the same outlet. Be sure
to operate the machine on a sole-use receptacle. Multiple connectors can cause the
outlet to overheat and cause fire.
To prevent fire or electric shocks, follow the instruction below based on your machine
configuration. If in doubt, contact your dealer or authorized Brother service
representative.
- If your machine is a 220-240 V model, there is no need to attach a separate earth line
since the earth connection is incorporated in the power line. Plug it into a properly
rated outlet.
1) Plug the power cord into the power inlet at the back of the printer. Plug the other
end of the cord into the AC outlet. Connect the earth connection to the ground, if
possible.
