Maintenance
Replacing Toner Cartridges
When the printer's display indicates that the toner is low or needs replacement, open the front cover of the printer. Carefully remove the drum unit assembly, then detach and replace the empty toner cartridge with a new one. Reinsert the drum unit assembly into the printer and close the front cover.
Cleaning the Printer
Regularly clean the exterior of the printer with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust and smudges. For internal cleaning, such as the drum unit or scanner glass, refer to the detailed instructions in the full user manual available on the Brother support website to avoid damaging components.
Troubleshooting
Common Issues and Solutions
- Paper Jams: If a paper jam occurs, the printer display will show an error message. Follow the on-screen instructions to locate and carefully remove any jammed paper. Ensure paper is loaded correctly and is not wrinkled or damaged.
- Print Quality Issues: If print quality is poor (e.g., faded text, streaks), check the toner levels. Ensure the drum unit is clean and free from debris. Running a test print or cleaning cycle may also help.
- Connectivity Problems: If the printer is not connecting to your computer or network, verify the USB cable connection or check the Wi-Fi network status. Restarting the printer and your computer or router can often resolve temporary connectivity issues.
