    Routine Maintenance
    Keep your machine in optimum condition by cleaning it on a regular basis. It is 
    a good idea to clean the drum unit during this routine. Avoid using thinners or 
    other organic solvents and do not use water.
    Cleaning the Document Scanner
    1Unplug the telephone line, and then the power cord.
    When you reconnect these lines later, connect the power cord first, and then the 
    telephone line. 
    2Lift the control panel cover.
    3Clean the white bar and glass cover 
    under the white bar. 
    Moisten a small, clean, soft, lint-free 
    cloth with isopropyl alcohol and 
    carefully remove dirt from the glass 
    cover and the white bar.
    Cleaning the Printer
    Caution
    Do not use isopropyl alcohol to remove dirt from the control panel. It maxy crack the 
    panel.
    Do not use isopropyl alcohol to clean the scanner window.
    Do not touch the scanner window with your finger.
    The drum unit contains toner, so handle it carefully. If toner scatters and your hands 
    or clothes get dirty, immediately wipe or wash it off with cold water.
    1Open the front cover.
    2Remove the drum unit assembly.

    WARNING
    Just after you have used the machine, some internal parts of the machine are 
    extremely HOT!  When you open the front cover of the machine, never touch 
    the shaded parts as shown in the diagram below.
    3Gently clean the scanner window by wiping with a clean soft dry cloth.  Do not 
    use isopropyl alcohol.
    Cleaning the Drum Unit
    We recommend placing the drum unit on a drop cloth or large disposable paper 
    to avoid spilling and scattering toner.
    1Clean the primary corona wire inside the drum unit by gently sliding the tab 
    from right to left several times.
    2Return the tab and snap it into the Home position ().
    Caution
    If the tab is not at the Home position, printed pages may have vertical stripes.

    (See 
    Replacing the Drum Unit, Page 13-23.)
    4Close the front cover.
    5Plug in the power cord first, and then plug in the telephone cord.
    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 shows TONER 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.
    Toner Empty Indicator
    When the toner cartridge is running low, the LCD shows TONER LOW and 
    the Toner Empty icon on the control panel flashes on and off to indicate the 
    toner is low.
    The Toner Empty icon appears and the LCD shows TONER EMPTY. Once 
    this icon appears, your machine will not resume printing until you install a new 
    toner cartridge.

    Caution
    Wait to unpack the toner cartridge until immediately before you install it into the 
    machine. If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a long period of time, the toner life 
    is shortened.
    You can use only a genuine Brother Toner Cartridge (TN-430 or TN-460), which is 
    specially formulated to ensure top print quality. Using another brand of toner cartridge 
    may void your machine’s warranty. Warranty coverage does not apply to problems 
    caused by the use of 3rd party Toner, 3rd party Toner cartridge or 3rd party Drum unit.
    4Gently rock the toner cartridge 
    from side to side five or six times 
    to distribute the toner evenly 
    inside the cartridge.
    5Remove the protective cover.
    6Install the new toner cartridge 
    into the drum unit until it clicks 
    into place.
    7Clean the primary corona 
    wire inside the drum unit by 
    gently sliding the blue tab 
    from right to left several 
    times. Return the blue tab to 
    the Home position before 
    reinstalling the drum unit 
    assembly.

    8Reinstall the drum unit and close the 
    front cover.
    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. 
    WARNING
    Just after you have used the 
    machine, some internal parts 
    of the machine are extremely 
    HOT! So please be careful.
    Follow these steps to replace 
    the drum unit:
    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.

    Perform these activities in the off-peak hours, such as early morning or late evening.
    This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted 
    by the ACTA. On the backside of this equipment is a label that contains, among other 
    information, a product identifier in the format US: AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested,
