A Safety and Legal Choosing a location Put your machine on a flat, stable surface that is free of vibration and shocks, such as a desk. Put the machine near a telephone socket and a standard grounded electrical socket. Choose a location where the temperature remains between 10° C and 35° C. WARNING DO NOT put the machine near heaters, air conditioners, refrigerators, medical equipment, chemicals or water.
Safety and Legal To use the machine safely A A Please keep these instructions for later reference and read them before attempting any maintenance. WARNING There are high voltage electrodes inside the machine. Before you clean the inside of the machine, make sure you have unplugged the telephone line cord first and then the power cord from the electrical socket. Doing this will prevent an electrical shock. DO NOT handle the plug with wet hands. Doing this might cause an electrical shock.
DO NOT put your hands on the edge of the paper tray under the paper tray cover. Doing this may cause injury. DO NOT touch the area shaded in the illustration. Doing this may cause injury. When moving the machine you must lift it from the base, by placing a hand at each side of the unit as shown in the illustration. DO NOT carry the machine by holding the scanner cover or the Jam Clear Cover.
Safety and Legal DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of spray, liquid or aerosol cleaners to clean the inside or outside of the machine. Doing this may cause a fire or electrical shock. If the machine becomes hot, releases smoke, or generates any strong smells, immediately unplug the machine from the electrical socket. Call your Brother dealer or Brother Customer Service. If metal objects, water or other liquids get inside the machine, immediately unplug the machine from the electrical socket.
Always make sure the plug is fully inserted. DO NOT use the machine if the power cord is frayed or damaged, doing so may cause a fire. When using your telephone equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and injury to people, including the following: 1 DO NOT use this product near water, for example, near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or washing machine, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool.

The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product. 6 Slots and openings in the cabinet and the back or bottom are provided for ventilation.
IMPORTANT - For your safety A To ensure safe operation, the supplied three-pin plug must be inserted only into a standard threepin electrical socket that is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring. The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician. Important - Wiring information (U.K.

B Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance Troubleshooting B B 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.
Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance Printing (continued) Difficulty Suggestions White horizontal lines appear in text or graphics. Clean the print head. (See Cleaning the print head on page 123.) Make sure you are using Brother Original Innobella™ ink. Try using the recommended types of paper. (See Acceptable paper and other print media on page 13.) The machine prints blank pages. Clean the print head. (See Cleaning the print head on page 123.
Printing (continued) Difficulty Suggestions Photo paper does not feed properly. When you print on Brother photo paper, load the instruction sheet included with the photo paper in the paper tray first, and then put the photo paper on top of the instruction sheet. Clean the paper pick-up roller. (See Cleaning the paper pick-up roller on page 123.) Machine feeds multiple pages Make sure the paper is loaded correctly in the paper tray. (See Loading paper and other print media on page 8.
Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance Receiving Faxes Difficulty Suggestions Cannot receive a fax Check the line cord connection. Make sure the machine is in the correct receiving mode for your setup. (See Receive modes on page 35.) B If you often have interference on the telephone line, try changing the menu setting of Compatibility to Basic(for VoIP). (See Telephone line interference on page 109.
Handling Incoming Calls (continued) Difficulty Suggestions Sending a fax call to the machine. If you answered at the machine, press Mono Start and hang up at once. If you answered on an extension telephone, press your Remote Activation Code (default setting is l51). If you answer on an external telephone (connected to the EXT jack), press Start to receive the fax. When your machine answers, hang up. Custom features on a single line.
Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance Software Difficulties Difficulty Suggestions Cannot install software or print Run the Repair MFL-Pro Suite program on the CD-ROM. This program will repair and reinstall the software. ‘Device Busy’ Make sure the machine is not showing an error message on the LCD. Cannot print images from FaceFilter Studio. To use FaceFilter Studio, you must install the FaceFilter Studio application from the CD-ROM supplied with your machine.
Network Difficulties Difficulty Suggestions Cannot print over the Network. Make sure that your machine is powered on and is online and in Ready mode. Print a Network Configuration list (see Reports on page 61.) and check the current Network settings printed in this list. Reconnect the LAN cable to the hub to verify that the cabling and network connections are good. If possible, try connecting the machine to a different port on your hub using a different cable.
Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance Dial Tone detection When you send a fax automatically, by default your machine will wait for a fixed amount of time before it starts to dial the number. By changing the Dial Tone setting to Detection you can make your machine dial as soon as it detects a dial tone. This setting can save a small amount of time when sending a fax to many different numbers.
Error and maintenance messages As with any sophisticated office product, errors may occur and consumable items may need to be replaced. If this happens, your machine identifies the error and shows an error message. The most common error and maintenance messages are shown below. You can correct most errors and routine maintenance messages by yourself. If you need more help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips.
