Check the Print Alignment from Your Brother Machine

If your printed text becomes blurred or images become faded after transporting the machine, adjust the print alignment.

Before adjusting the print alignment, complete a print quality check first by pressing image[Ink]>[Improve Print Quality]>[Check Print Quality].

  2. Press [Next].
  3. Press [Yes] after a confirmation message if a print quality check has been completed appears on the LCD.
  4. Press [Auto] or [Manual].
    • If you select the [Auto] mode, the print alignment is automatically adjusted by scanning the check sheet.
    • If you select the [Manual] mode, you need to input information printed on the check sheet manually.
  5. Select the paper size to print the check sheet on.
    • If you selected the [Manual] mode, select either [Basic alignment] or [Advanced alignment] in the following step.
  6. Load specified size paper in the tray, and then press [Start].
