REGULATIONS
Federal Communications Commission Compliance Notice (For USA Only)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
❏Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
❏Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
❏Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.
❏Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Important – About the Interface Cable
This printer has been certified to comply with FCC standards, which are applied to the U.S.A.
only. A shielded interface cable should be used according to FCC 15.27(C). In addition, a
grounded plug should be plugged into a grounded AC outlet after checking the rating of the
local power supply for the printer to operate properly and safely.
Caution
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Brother Industries, Ltd. could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Laser Safety (For 110–120 V Model Only)
This printer is certified as a Class I laser product under the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance Standard according to the Radiation Control
for Health and Safety Act of 1968. This means that the printer does not produce hazardous
laser radiation.
Since radiation emitted inside the printer is completely confined within protective housings
and external covers, the laser beam cannot escape from the machine during any phase of user
operation.
Radio Interference (For 220 - 240 V Model Only)
This apparatus complies with EN55022 (CISPR Publication 22) / Class B.

FDA Regulations
U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) implemented regulations for laser products
manufactured from August 2, 1976. These regulations apply to laser products manufactured
from August 1, 1976. Compliance is mandatory for products marketed in the United States.
The label shown on the back of the printer indicates compliance with the FDA regulations
and must be attached to laser products marketed in the United States.
MANUFACTURED:
BROTHER INDUSTRIES, LTD.
15-1 Naeshiro-cho Mizuho-ku Nagoya, 467 Japan
This product complies with FDA radiation performance standards, 21 CFR
Subchapter J
Caution
Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified in this
manual may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
For Your Safety
To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted only into a standard
three-pin power point which is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring.
Extension cords used with the equipment must be three-conductor and be correctly wired to
provide connection to ground. Incorrectly wired extension cords are a major cause of
fatalities.
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded
and that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective
grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.

IMPORTANT (For U.K. only)
If the power cord supplied with this printer is not suitable for your electrical outlet, remove
the plug from the mains cord and fit an appropriate three pin plug. If the replacement plug is
intended to take a fuse then fit the same fuse as the original.
If a moulded plug is severed from the power cord then it should be destroyed because a plug
with cut wires is dangerous if plugged into a live socket outlet. Do not leave it where a child
might find it.
In the event of replacing the plug fuse, fit a fuse approved by ASTA to BS1362 with the same
rating as the orginal fuse.
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug with the cover omitted.
WARNING - THIS PRINTER MUST BE PROPERLY EARTHED.
The wires in the mains cord are cololured in accordance with the following code:
Green and yellow : Ground
Blue : Neutral
Brown : Live
The colours of the wiring in the power lead of this printer may not correspond with the
markings which identify the terminals in your plug. If you need to fit a different plug,
proceed as follows.
Remove a length of the cord outer sheath, taking care not to damage the coloured insulation
of the wires inside.
Cut each of the three wires to the appropriate length. If the construction of the plug permits,
leave the green and yellow wire longer than the others so that, in the event that the cord is
pulled out of the plug, the green and yellow wire will be the last to disconnect.
Remove a short section of the coloured insulation to expose the wires.
The wire which is coloured green and yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug
which is marked with the letter “E” or by the earth symbol or coloured green or green and
yellow.
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the
letter “N” or coloured black or blue.
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with
the letter “L” or coloured red or brown.
The outer sheath of the cord must be secured inside the plug. The coloured wires should not
hang out of the plug.
