Chapter 2 Handling and using special paper The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Loading paper Envelopes 2 Most envelopes designed for laser printers will be suitable for your machine. However, some envelopes may have feed and printquality problems because of the way they have been made. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well-creased folds and the leading edge should not be thicker than two sheets of paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction.
Chapter 2 Labels 2 The machine will print on most types of labels designed for use with a laser machine. Labels should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based since this material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the machine, because the label stock may stick to the drum unit or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No adhesive should be exposed between the labels.

If you are having difficulty with your machine If you think there is a problem with your machine, check the chart below and follow the troubleshooting tips. Most problems can be easily resolved by yourself. If you need additional help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips. Visit us at http://solutions.brother.com/. Copy difficulties Difficulties Cannot make a copy. Suggestions Make sure that COPY is illuminated. (See How to copy on page 27.
Troubleshooting Printing difficulties Difficulties No printout. Suggestions Check that the machine is plugged in and the power switch is turned on. Check that the toner cartridge and drum unit are installed correctly. (See Replacing the drum unit on page 45.) Check the interface cable connection on both the machine and your computer. (See the Quick Setup Guide.) Check that the correct printer driver has been installed and chosen. Check to see if the LCD is showing an error message.
Printing difficulties (continued) Difficulties The machine is not printing or has stopped printing. Suggestions If either the Cyan, Magenta or Yellow toner reaches the end of its life while printing a colour document, the print job cannot be completed. You can choose to start the print job again in Mono mode, as long as black toner is available. See Basic tab in the Software User's Guide. Press Job Cancel.
Troubleshooting Paper handling difficulties Difficulties Suggestions The machine does not feed paper. If there is no paper, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray. The LCD shows No Paper or a Paper Jam message. If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over and put it back into the paper tray. Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
Network difficulties Difficulties Suggestions Cannot print over a wired Network. If you are having Network problems, see the Network User's Guide for more information. Make sure your machine is powered on and is on-line and in the Ready mode. Print the Network Configuration Report to see your current Network settings. (See Reports in Chapter 3 of the Advanced User's Guide.) Reconnect the LAN cable to the hub to verify that the cable and network connections are good.
Troubleshooting Other Difficulties Suggestions The machine will not turn on. Adverse conditions on the power connection (such as lightning or a power surge) may have triggered the machine’s internal safety mechanisms. Turn the machine off and unplug the power cord. Wait for ten minutes, then plug in the power cord and turn the machine on. If the problem is not solved, turn off the machine. Plug the power cord into a different known working outlet and turn on the machine.
Improving the print quality If you have a print quality problem, print a test page first (MENU, Printer, Print Options, Test Print). If the printout looks good, the problem is probably not the machine. Check the interface cable connections or try printing a different document. If the printout or test page printed from the machine has a quality problem, check the following steps first. And then, if you still have a print quality problem, check the chart below and follow the recommendations.
