Pack and Ship Your Brother Machine

  • When you transport the machine, use the packing materials that came with your machine. If you do not pack the machine correctly, any damage that may occur in transit may not be covered by your warranty.
  • The machine should be adequately insured with the carrier.
IMPORTANT
It is important to allow the machine to “park” the print head after a print job. Listen carefully to the machine before unplugging it to make sure that all mechanical noises have stopped. Not allowing the machine to finish this parking process may lead to print problems and possible damage to the print head.
  1. Unplug the machine from the electrical socket.
  2. Unplug the machine from the telephone wall socket and take the telephone line cord out of the machine.
  3. Using both hands, use the finger holds on each side of the machine to lift the scanner cover into the open position.
  4. Unplug the interface cable from the machine, if it is connected.
  5. Gently close the scanner cover using the finger holds on each side.
