Ink
The machine uses individual Black, Yel ow, Cyan and Magenta ink
cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.
Service Life of Ink
Replacement Ink Cartridges
Cartridge
The first time you install the ink cartridges the machine wil use extra
ink to fil the ink delivery tubes. This is a one-time process that
enables high quality printing. Afterward, replacement ink cartridges
wil print the specified number of pages.
Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage
Yel ow, Cyan and Magenta - Approximately 400 pages at 5%
coverage
The above figures assume continuous printing at a resolution of
600 x 600 dpi in normal mode after installing new ink cartridge.
The number of pages a cartridge will print may change
depending on how often you use the machine and how many
pages you print with each use.
The machine will automatically and periodically clean the print
head assembly, a process that uses a small amount of ink.
When the machine identifies a cartridge as empty there may be
a small amount of ink left in it. This is necessary to prevent air
from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.

What is InnobellaTM?
InnobellaTM is a range of genuine consumables offered by Brother.
The name "InnobellaTM" derives from the words "Innovation" and
"Bella" (meaning "Beautiful" in Italian) and is a representation of the
"innovative" technology providing you with "beautiful"and "long
lasting" print results.
When you print photo images, Brother recommends InnobellaTM
glossy photo paper (BP61GL series) for high quality. Brilliant prints
are made easier with InnobellaTM Ink and paper.
