Clean the Print Head from Your Brother Machine
To maintain good print quality, the machine automatically cleans the print head when needed. If there is a print quality problem, start the cleaning process manually.
- Clean the print head if there is a horizontal line or a blank space in the text or graphics on printed pages. Depending on the problem color, select to clean Black only or all four colors at once.
- Cleaning the print head consumes ink.
- Cleaning too often uses ink unnecessarily.
- IMPORTANT
- DO NOT touch the print head. Touching the print head may cause permanent damage and may void the print head's warranty.

(STOP) and
(Paper) simultaneously.
The Power LED, Warning LED, and Ink LED light up for one second, and then the Ink LED starts blinking. - Do one of the following:
- To clean all four colors, press COLOR COPY. After the cleaning, the machine prints the check sheet.
- To clean black only, press MONO COPY. After the cleaning, the machine prints the check sheet.
- NOTE
