Confirm the color of the ink cartridge. Loading a wrong color causes serious damage to print quality,
and could damage to the Print Heads. If you have installed a wrong color, immediately contact
Brother or your dealer for a service call
(4) When you have replaced the Black Ink Cartridge, refer to “6-1-2. Replacing the Wiper Cleaner” and
replace the attached Wiper Cleaner and clean the surroundings. This is really important to keep
your printer in good condition.
<Note>
Do not repeat uninstalling / installing the Ink Cartridge.
Dispose the used Ink Cartridge in compliance with your local regulations.
6-1-2. Replacing the Wiper Cleaner
The Wiper Cleaner is attached to the Black Ink Cartridge, and it needs to be replaced regularly
when the Ink Cartridge is replaced. Keep the Print Head Cap and Wiper Blade clean when
replacing the Wiper Cleaner.
<Note>
Generally Yellow Ink is used most of other colors when you print colorful artwork. But if you use other ink
more than Black Ink, e.g. Yellow Ink, the regular cleaning at the timing of Black Ink replacement might
be insufficient to keep print quality good. Please get a Cap Cleaning Kit and do this maintenance
regularly at the timing of ink replacement that you use most.
