■ Before you buy a large amount of paper, please test some to make sure that the paper is suitable. ■ Use paper that is made for plain-paper copying. ■ Use paper that is 20 to 24 lb (75 to 90 g/m2). ■ Use neutral paper. Do not use acidic or alkaline paper. ■ Use long-grain paper. ■ Use paper with a moisture content of approximately 5%. Caution Do not use ink jet paper. It may cause a paper jam and damage your MFC. The output quality depends on the paper type and paper brand. Visit us at http://solutions.brother.com and check the latest recommendations for paper that can be used with the MFC-8440, MFC-8640D, MFC-8840D and MFC-8840DN. Choosing acceptable paper We recommend that you test paper (especially special sizes and types of paper) on the MFC before purchasing large quantities. ■ Avoid feeding label sheets that are partly used or your MFC will be damaged. ■ Avoid using coated paper, such as vinyl coated paper. ■ Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper, or paper with an embossed letterhead. For optimum printing, use a recommended type of paper, especially for plain paper and transparencies. For more information on paper specifications, call your nearest authorized sales representative or the place where you purchased your MFC. ■ Use label or transparencies that are designed for use in laser printers. ■ For the best print quality, we recommend using long-grained paper. ■ If you are using special paper and the paper has problems feeding from the paper tray, try again using the manual feed tray or multi-purpose tray. ■ You can use recycled paper in this MFC.
