Replace Ink

Follow the steps below to replace the ink cartridge:

 

NOTE: Illustrations shown below are from a representative product, and may differ from your Brother machine.

 

  1. Open the ink cartridge cover (1). If one or more of the ink cartridges needs replacing, the machine's display (hereinafter called LCD) displays Black and White Print Only or Replace Ink.

    Open the ink cartridge cover.
     

    If the black ink cartridge is empty, the only message that will appear is Replace Ink. You must replace the black ink cartridge.

  2. Press the lock release lever to release the cartridge colour indicated on the LCD and remove the cartridge from the machine, as shown in the illustration.

    Press the lock release lever.

     
  3. Open the new ink cartridge bag for the colour indicated on the LCD, and take out the ink cartridge.
    • DO NOT touch the cartridge in the area indicated (1); this can prevent the machine from detecting the cartridge.
