Brother Mfc 7220 Instructions

Brother's MFC-7220 is a multi-function device that acts as a fax machine, copy machine and computer printer. It employs the same technology as laser printers to produce copies or receive faxed documents, applying toner (ink dust) to paper, and then fusing the toner to the paper by applying heat and pressure to the paper, which occurs when the paper is fed through a set of internal rollers. Faxing is very easy on the MFC 7220, and making copies is just as convenient. Learn how to use your Brother multi-function printer with this short tutorial.
