Gently push the ink cartridge until it clicks. After

all the ink cartridges are installed close the ink

cartridge cover.

Note

The machine will prepare the ink tube system for

printing. This process will take approximately four

minutes. Do not turn off the machine.

Important

• DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do not

need to replace them. If you do so, it may

reduce the ink quantity and the machine will

not know the quantity of ink left in the

cartridge.

• DO NOT shake the ink cartridges. If ink

stains your skin or clothing, wash with soap

or detergent at once.

• DO NOT repeatedly insert and remove the

cartridges. If you do so, ink may seep out of

the cartridge.

• If you mix the colors by installing an ink

cartridge in the wrong position, clean the

print head several times after correcting the

cartridge installation. (See Cleaning the

print head in Appendix B of the User’s

Guide.)

• Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in

the machine and use it up within six months

of installation. Use unopened ink cartridges

by the expiration date written on the

cartridge package.

• DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink

cartridge, this can cause the ink to leak out

of the cartridge.

• Brother strongly recommends that you do

not refill the ink cartridges provided with

your machine. We also strongly recommend

that you continue to use only Genuine

Brother Brand replacement ink cartridges.

Using or attempting to use potentially

incompatible inks and/or cartridges in your

machine may cause damage to the machine

itself and/or it may result in unsatisfactory

print quality. Our warranty coverage does

not apply to any problem that was caused by

the use of unauthorized third party ink

and/or cartridges. To protect your

investment and guarantee your print quality

please continue to replace consumed ink

cartridges with only Genuine Brother

Branded Supplies.

Important Note: You cannot receive voice messages on either Voice Mail or an answering machine

when choosing the Fax/Tel mode.

For Wireless Network Users

For Wireless Network Interface Users

Before you begin

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your network

router/access point. After the machine is configured to communicate with your router/access point, computers on

your network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install

the drivers and software. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.

To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the

network router/access point as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two

devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.

Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and

applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you

may want to consider choosing wired Ethernet for a faster data transfer or USB for the fastest throughput speed.

Although the Brother MFC-6890CDW can be used in both a wired and wireless network, only one of the

connection methods can be used at a time.

For Wireless Network Users

Wireless Network

Confirm your network environment (Infrastructure Mode)

The following instructions will offer two methods for installing your Brother machine in a wireless network

environment. Both methods are for infrastructure mode, using a wireless router/access point that uses DHCP to

assign IP addresses. Choose a configuration method and proceed to the page indicated.

If your wireless router/access point does not support SecureEasySetup™, Wi-Fi Protected Setup™ or

AOSS™,

write down the wireless network settings

of your access point/router in the area below.

Important

If you do not know this information (Network Name (SSID, ESSID), WEP key or WPA

passphrase), you cannot continue the wireless setup. You should see the documentation

provided with your access point or wireless router, consult the router manufacturer, or your

system administrator.

Item Example Record the current wireless network settings

Communication mode: (infrastructure) Infrastructure

Network name: (SSID, ESSID) HELLO

Authentication method:

(Open system, Shared key, WPA-PSK 1,

WPA2-PSK 1)

WPA2-PSK

Encryption mode:

(None, WEP,TKIP, AES) AES

Network key:

(Encryption key, WEP key 2, Passphrase) 12345678

1WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access™ Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access

points using TKIP or AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP or AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8

or more characters in length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.

2The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you

do not know this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is

a 64-bit or 128-bit value that must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.

For example:

64-bit ASCII: Uses 5 text characters e.g. “Hello” (this is case sensitive)

64-bit Hexadecimal: Uses 10 digits of hexadecimal data e.g. “71f2234aba”

128-bit ASCII: Uses 13 text characters e.g.

“Wirelesscomms” (this is case sensitive)

128-bit Hexadecimal:

Uses 26 digits of hexadecimal data e.g.

“71f2234ab56cd709e5412aa3ba”
