Acceptable paper and
other print media
2
The print quality can be affected by the type
of paper you use in the machine.
To get the best print quality for the settings
you have chosen, always set the Paper Type
to match the type of paper you load.
You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated
paper), glossy paper, transparencies and
envelopes.
We recommend testing various paper types
before buying large quantities.
For best results, use Brother paper.
When you print on inkjet paper (coated
paper), transparencies and glossy paper,
be sure to choose the correct print media
in the “Basic” tab of the printer driver or in
the Paper Type setting of the menu. (See
Paper Type on page 24.)
When you print on Brother photo paper,
load one extra sheet of the same photo
paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has
been included in the paper package for
this purpose.
When you use transparencies or photo
paper, remove each sheet at once to
prevent smudging or paper jams.
Avoid touching the printed surface of the
paper immediately after printing; the
surface may not be completely dry and
may stain your fingers.
Recommended print media 2
To get the best print quality, we suggest using
Brother paper. (See the table below.)
If Brother paper is not available in your
country, we recommend testing various
papers before purchasing large quantities.
We recommend using “3M Transparency
Film” when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print
media 2
Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat.
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of
photo paper. Load photo paper with the
shiny side facing down.
Avoid touching either side of
transparencies because they absorb
water and perspiration easily, and this
may cause decreased output quality.
Transparencies designed for laser
printers/copiers may stain your next
document. Use only transparencies
recommended for inkjet printing.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:
• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or
irregularly shaped paper
1 2 mm or greater curl may cause jams
to occur.
• Extremely shiny or highly textured
paper
• Paper that cannot be arranged
uniformly when stacked
• Paper made with a short grain

Replacing the ink
cartridges
A
Your machine is equipped with an ink dot
counter. The ink dot counter automatically
monitors the level of ink in each of the 4
cartridges. When the machine detects an ink
cartridge is running out of ink, the machine
will tell you with a message on the LCD.
The LCD will tell you which ink cartridge is low
or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the LCD
prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the
correct order.
Even though the machine tells you to replace
an ink cartridge, there will be a small amount
of ink left in the ink cartridge. It is necessary
to keep some ink in the ink cartridge to
prevent air from drying out and damaging the
print head assembly.
IMPORTANT
Brother multifunction machines are
designed to work with ink of a particular
specification and will work to a level of
optimum performance and reliability when
used with genuine Brother Original ink
cartridges. Brother cannot guarantee this
optimum performance and reliability if ink
or ink cartridges of other specifications are
used. Brother does not therefore
recommend the use of cartridges other
than genuine Brother Original cartridges
or the refilling of used 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.
a Open the ink cartridge cover.
If one or more ink cartridges have
reached the end of their life, the LCD
shows B&W Print Only or
Cannot Print.
b Press the lock release lever as shown to
release the cartridge indicated on the
LCD. Remove the cartridge from the
machine.
c Open the new ink cartridge bag for the
colour shown on the LCD, and then take
out the ink cartridge.
Routine maintenance A

d Turn the green knob on the protective
yellow cap clockwise until it clicks to
release the vacuum seal, then remove
the cap (1).
e Each colour has its own correct position.
Insert the ink cartridge in the direction of
the arrow on the label.
f Gently push the ink cartridge in until it
clicks, and then close the ink cartridge
cover.
g The machine will automatically reset the
ink dot counter.
Note
• If you replaced an ink cartridge, for
example Black, the LCD may ask you to
verify that it was a brand new one (for
example, Did You Change Black).
For each new cartridge you installed,
press + (Yes) to automatically reset the
ink dot counter for that colour. If the ink
cartridge you installed is not a brand new
one, be sure to press - (No).
• If the LCD shows No Ink Cartridge or
Cannot Detect after you install the ink
cartridges, check that the ink cartridges
are installed correctly.
CAUTION
If ink gets in your eyes, wash it out with
water at once and call a doctor if you are
concerned.

Routine maintenance

A
IMPORTANT
• DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do
not need to replace them. If you do so, it
may reduce the ink quantity and the
machine 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 gets on your skin or clothing
immediately wash it off with soap or
detergent.
• If you mix the colours by installing an ink
cartridge in the wrong position, clean the
print head several times after correcting
the cartridge installation.
• 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.

Ink The machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta ink
cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.
Service Life of Ink
Cartridge
The first time you install a set of ink cartridges the machine will use
an amount of ink to fill the ink delivery tubes for high quality
printouts. This process will only happen once. After this process is
complete the cartridges provided with your machine will have a
lower yield than standard cartridges (65%). With all following ink
cartridges you can print the specified number of pages.

  • Mijn controlcenter3 wordt geblokkeerd door Adobe Flash Player. Lijkt logisch nadat op 12/1 ondersteuning is beëindigd.
    Ook na verwijderen van de Adobe Flash Player blijft de blokkering.
    Nieuwe installatie Controlcenter niet mogelijk; is geblokkeerd in de Brother support website.
    Wie heeft een oplossing voor mijn trouwe DCP-J715W?

  • mijn Brother DCP-J715w doet het van de een op de andere dag niet meer. Hij gaat niet aan, vervanging van de stroomkabel en opnieuw installeren hebben niet geholpen. Het lijkt erop dat de voeding het niet meer doet. Zit er misschien een zekering of zoiets in dat vervangen kan worden?

    Reageer op deze vraag Misbruik melden

  • Inmiddels heb ik bij de leverancier geïnformeerd, zeer waarschijnlijk is de voeding defect. Dat schijnt vaker van het ene op het andere moment te gebeuren. Het advies is een andere te kopen, reparatie is duurder. Geantwoord op 6-7-2014 om 23:51

  • Onze Brother DCP-J715W is nu zo'n twee jaar oud.
    Na iets meer dan een jaar deed het kleuren display helemaal niets meer en stond met zwart, waardoor we ook niet meer in het menu van de printer kunnen.\

    Sinds een paar dagen scant en print hij nu ineens niet meer.
    Er is voldoende inkt en papier aanwezig en er zit ook geen papier ergens vast.

    Dit is nu de derde brother all in one printer die het binnen 2 jaar opgeeft.
    Geen Brother printer meer voor mij, ik hen het wel gehad... Gesteld op 26-3-2014 om 13:11

    • Net buiten de garantieperiode stopte bij ons het afdrukken van de kleur zwart (oké zwart is geen kleur).
      Bij navraag Brother service dienst blijkt de printkop defect te zijn. Printer wegbrengen naar Amstelveen met, als kosten vermoedelijk 50 euro. Ik lees net dat je voor 37 euro al een nieuwe Canon printer koopt bij Expert.
