Original ink the machine may not
detect the ink cartridge.
Replace the cartridge with a Brother

properly.
Take out the new ink cartridge and re-
install it slowly until it clicks.
Cannot Print One or more of the ink cartridges
are empty. The machine will stop
all print operations. While memory
is available, black and white faxes
will be stored in the memory. If a
sending machine has a colour fax,
the machine's
‘handshake’ will
ask that the fax be sent as black
and white. If the sending machine
has the ability to convert it, the
colour fax will be stored in the
memory as a black and white fax.
Replace the empty ink cartridges. (See
Replacing the ink cartridges on page 152.)

If the problem continues, call the telephone
