Replace Supplies
You must replace supplies when the machine indicates that the life of the supply is over. Using non-Brother supplies may affect print quality, hardware performance, and machine reliability. The toner cartridge and drum unit are two separate supplies. Make sure both are installed as an assembly. The model name of supplies may vary depending on the country.
NOTE
- Be sure to seal up the used supplies tightly in a bag so that toner powder does not spill out of the cartridge.
- Visit www.brother.com/original/index.html for instructions on how to return your used supplies to the Brother collection and recycling program. If you choose not to return your used supply, discard the used supply according to local regulations, keeping it separate from domestic waste. If you have questions, contact your local waste disposal office.
- We recommend placing used and new supplies on a piece of paper to prevent accidentally spilling or scattering the material inside.
- If you use paper that is not a direct equivalent for the recommended print media, the life of supplies and machine parts may be reduced.
- The projected life for each of the toner cartridges is based on ISO/IEC 19752. The frequency of replacement will vary depending on the print volume, percentage of coverage, types of media used, and power on/off the machine.
- Frequency of replacing supplies except toner cartridges will vary depending on the print volume, types of media used, and power on/off the machine.
- Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, immediately wipe or wash it off with cold water.

To avoid print quality problems, DO NOT touch the shaded parts shown in the illustrations.

Replace the Drum Unit
- Make sure the machine is turned on.
- Open the front cover.
- Remove the toner cartridge and drum unit assembly from the machine.
- Push down the green lock lever and take the toner cartridge out of the drum unit.
- Unpack the new drum unit.
- Push the toner cartridge firmly into the new drum unit until you hear it lock into place. Make sure you put the toner cartridge in correctly or it may separate from the drum unit.
- Install the toner cartridge and drum unit assembly back into the machine.
- Close the front cover of the machine.
NOTE
- Drum wear and tear occurs due to the use and rotation of the drum and interaction with paper, toner, and other materials in the paper path. In designing this product, Brother decided to use the number of rotations of the drum as a reasonable determinant of the drum’s life. When a drum reaches the factory-established rotation limit corresponding to the rated page yield, the product’s LCD will advise you to replace the drum. The product will continue to function; however, print quality may not be optimal.
- If an unpacked drum unit is placed in direct sunlight (or room light for long periods of time), the unit may be damaged.
- There are many factors that determine the actual drum life, such as the temperature, humidity, type of paper, type of toner used, and so on. Under ideal conditions, the average drum life is estimated at approximately 12,000 pages (based on 1 page per job [A4/Letter single-sided pages]. The number of pages may be affected due to a variety of factors including but not limited to media type and media size. Because we have no control over the many factors that determine the actual drum life, we cannot guarantee a minimum number of pages that will be printed by your drum.
- For best performance, use only Brother Original toner.
- The machine should be used only in a clean, dust-free environment with adequate ventilation.
- Printing with a non-Brother drum unit may reduce not only the print quality but also the quality and life of the machine itself. Warranty coverage does not apply to problems caused by the use of a non-Brother drum unit.
