Suggestions
Make sure the printer platen is not dirty with ink. (See Cleaning the machine printer
platen on page 171.)
Make sure you are using Brother Original ink cartridges.
Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper and other
print media on page 9.)
Check Reverse Order in the Basic tab of the printer driver.
In the printer driver Advanced tab, click Color Settings, and uncheck
Bi-Directional Printing for Windows
Make sure you are using Brother Original ink cartridges.
Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are the
same.
Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data
processing, sending and printing time. Try the other quality settings in the printer
driver Advanced tab. Also, click Color Settings, and make sure you uncheck
Color Enhancement (True2Life™).
Turn the borderless feature off. Borderless printing is slower than normal printing.

other print media on page 9.)

one time.
Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper and other
print media on page 9.)
