SUGGESTIONS
General Printing Difficulties
Check the following:
• The FAX/MFC is plugged in.
• The toner cartridge and drum unit are installed
properly.
• The interface cable is securely connected
between the MFC and computer.
• Check to see if LCD is showing an error message.
(See pages 13-1 to 13-4)
Reset the MFC . Check the primary settings in your
application software to make sure it is set up to
work with your MFC.
Your computer is not recognizing the printer input
buffer's full signal. Please make sure to connect the
printer cable correctly.
Reduce the printer resolution. Reduce the
complexity of your document and try again.
Reduce the graphic quality or the number of font
sizes within your application software.
Most laser printers have a restricted area that will
not accept print. Usually these are the first two
lines and last two lines, leaves 62 printable lines.
Adjust the top and bottom margins in your
document to allow for this.
Software Difficulties (For MFC-4800 Only)
If the MFC is not connected to your PC and you
have loaded the Brother software, the PC will show
