Caution
■Do not remove ink cartridges if you do not need to replace them. 
If you do so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the DCP will not 
know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge.
■Do not touch the cartridge insertion slots. If you do so, the ink 
may stain your skin.
■If ink stains your skin or clothing, wash with soap or detergent 
immediately.
■If you install an ink cartridge in the wrong colour position, you 
must clean the print head several times before you start printing 
(after correcting the cartridge installation) because the colours 
were mixed.
■Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in the DCP and use it up 
within six months of installation. Use unopened ink cartridges by 
the expiration date written on the cartridge package.
■Do not dismantle or tamper with the ink cartridge, this can cause 
the ink to leak out of the cartridge.
■Brother multifunction machines are designed to work with ink of 
a particular specification and work to a level of optimum 
performance when used with genuine Brother ink cartridges. 
Brother cannot guarantee this optimum performance if ink or ink 
cartridges of other specifications are used. Brother does not 
therefore recommend the use of cartridges other than genuine 
Brother cartridges with this machine or the refilling of empty 
cartridges with ink from other sources. If damage is caused to the 
print head or other parts of this machine as a result of the use of 
ink or ink cartridges other than genuine Brother products due to 
the incompatibility or lack of suitability of those products with this 
machine, any repairs required as a result will not be covered by 
the warranty.

On-screen programming
Your DCP is designed to be easy to use with LCD on-screen 
programming. User-friendly programming helps you take full 
advantage of all the menu selections your DCP has to offer.
Since your programming is done on the LCD, we have created 
step-by-step on-screen instructions to help you program your DCP. 
All you need to do is follow the instructions as they guide you through 
the menu selections and programming options.

You can probably program your DCP without the User’s Guide if you
