Frequently Asked Questions

 

I want to save on toner while printing with my Brother MFC-8120—how can I do that?

Your MFC printer allows you to save on toner by simply activating the ‘Toner Save’ feature. It, however, provides lighter prints, so you might want to reconsider if you need to print and copy images and documents.

 

My printer says ‘Change Drum Soon’—what does it mean?

A ‘Change Drum Soon’ error message indicates that the drum unit is near the end of its service life and should be replaced soon.

 

Can I still print even if the ‘Change Drum Soon’ appears on the LCD display?

Yes, you can still print even if the LCD displays the ‘Change Drum Soon’ error message. However, if you notice any deterioration in print quality, might as well replace the drum unit first before you resume printing.
