Remarks
We recommend that you test paper on this printer before purchasing large quantities,
especially paper of a special type, size or thickness.
Avoid using coated paper, for example, vinyl coated paper.
Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper.
For optimum print quality, use only the recommended type of paper, especially when using
plain paper or transparencies. For more information on paper specifications, consult your
nearest Brother authorized sales representative or place of purchase.
If the paper has difficulty feeding from the paper cassette, use the manual feed slot and try
again.
To avoid damage to the printer drum unit, do not use acid paper. Use neutral paper.
For optimum print quality, make sure you have selected the appropriate media type in the
printer driver.
Using the printer for special print jobs (for example, printing name cards) for long periods of
time, may degrade the print quality or shorten the life of the drum unit.
Cut Sheet
For best print quality we recommend you use long-grained. Using short-grained paper may
cause a paper jam.
If you are using short-grained paper, it may be the cause of paper jams.
Labels / Transparencies
Do not feed labels with the carrier sheet exposed because it will damage your printer.
We recommend you use only labels or transparencies that are designed for use in laser
printers.
