• DO NOT repeatedly insert and remove the
cartridges. If you do so, ink may seep out of the
cartridge.
• Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in the
machine 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
will work to a level of optimum performance
when used with genuine Brother branded 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 branded 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 using
incompatible products with this machine, any
repairs required as a result may not be covered
by the warranty.
