    • Do not turn off the machine or open the front cover until the machine returns to Ready Mode.

    • The toner cartridge that comes with your Brother machine is a Inbox toner cartridge.
    • It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the Toner Low warning.
    • To ensure high quality printing, we recommend using only Brother Original toner cartridges. When you want to buy toner cartridges, contact Brother Dealer.
    • DO NOT unpack the new toner cartridge until you are ready to install it.
    • If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a long time, the toner life will be shortened.
    • Brother strongly recommends you DO NOT refill the toner cartridge provided with your machine. We also strongly recommend you continue to use only Brother Original replacement toner cartridges.
