Cleaning the print head
A
To maintain good print quality, the machine
will automatically clean the print head when
needed. You can start the cleaning process
manually if there is a print quality problem.
Clean the print head if you get a horizontal
line in the text or graphics, or blank text on
your printed pages. You can clean Black only,
three colors at a time
(Yellow/Cyan/Magenta), 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.

Note
If you clean the print head at least five
times and the print has not improved, try
installing a new Genuine Brother Brand
replacement ink cartridge for each
problem color. Try cleaning the print head
again up to five more times. If the print has
not improved call Brother Customer
Service. (See

If faded or streaked colors and text appear on

may be clogged. You can check this by
printing the Print Quality Check Sheet and
looking at the nozzle check pattern.
