• The components included in the box may differ depending on your country.
• We recommend that you save the original packaging.
• If for any reason you must ship your machine, carefully repack the machine in the original packaging to avoid
any damage during transit. The machine should be adequately insured with the carrier. For how to repack
the machine, see Packing and shipping the machine in the Advanced User's Guide.
• Illustrations in this Quick Setup Guide are based on the MFC-8950DW.
• The interface cable is not a standard accessory. Buy the appropriate interface cable for the connection you
want to use (USB or Network).
