    What happens when Brother elects to

    When a replacement Machine is authorized
    by Brother, and you have delivered the
    Machine to an Authorized Service Center,
    the Authorized Service Center will provide
    you with a replacement Machine after
    receiving one from Brother.  If you are
    dealing directly with Brother, Brother will
    send to you a replacement Machine with the
    understanding that you will, after receipt of
    the replacement Machine, supply the
    required proof of purchase information,
    together with the Machine that Brother
    agreed to replace.  You are then expected to
    pack the Machine that Brother agreed to
    replace in the package from the replacement
    Machine and return it to Brother using the
    shipping bill supplied by Brother in
    accordance with the instructions provided by
    Brother.  Since you will be in possession of
    two machines, Brother will require that you
    provide a valid major credit card number.

    card account number that you provide until
    Brother receives your original Product and
    determines that your original Product is
    entitled to warranty coverage. Your credit
    card will be charged up to the cost of a new
    Product only if: (i) you do not return your
    original Product to Brother within five (5)
    business days; (ii) the problems of your
    original Product are not covered by the
    warranty; (iii) the proper packaging
    instructions are not followed and has caused
    damage to the product; or (iv) the warranty
    period on your original Product has expired
    or has not been sufficiently validated with a
    copy of the proof of purchase (bill of sale).
    The replacement Machine you receive (even
    if refurbished or remanufactured) will be
    covered by the balance of the warranty
    period remaining on the original Product,
    plus an additional thirty (30) days.  You will
    keep the replacement Machine that is sent to
    you and your original Machine shall become
    the property of Brother. Retain your
    original Accessory Items and a copy of
    the return shipping bill, signed by the
    courier. Limitations: 
    Brother is not responsible for damage to or
    loss of any equipment, media, programs or
    data related to the use of this Product.
    Except for that repair or replacement as
    described above, Brother shall not be liable
    for any direct, indirect, incidental orconsequential damages or specific relief.Because some states do not allow theexclusion or limitation of consequential orincidental damages, the above limitationmay not apply to you. 
    THIS WARRANTY IS GIVEN IN LIEU OF
    ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WRITTEN OR
    ORAL, WHETHER EXPRESSED BY
    AFFIRMATION, PROMISE, DESCRIPTION,
    DRAWING, MODEL OR SAMPLE.  ANY
    AND ALL WARRANTIES OTHER THAN
    THIS ONE, WHETHER EXPRESS OR
    IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED
    WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
    AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
    PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED.
     This Warranty is the only warranty that
    Brother is giving for this Product. It is the
    final expression and the exclusive and only
    statement of Brothers obligations to you. It
    replaces all other agreements and
    understandings that you may have with
    Brother or its representatives.
     This warranty gives you certain rights and
    you may also have other rights that may
    vary from state to state. 
     This Warranty (and Brothers obligation to
    you) may not be changed in any way
    unless you and Brother sign the same
    piece of paper in which we (1) refer to this
    Product and your bill of sale date, (2)
    describe the change to this warranty and
    (3) agree to make that change.

    BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER/FACSIMILE MACHINE 
    LIMITED WARRANTY 
    (Canada only)
    Pursuant to this limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts,
    Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its Authorized Service
    Centers, will repair this DCP/Facsimile machine free of charge if defective in material or
    workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables
    (including, without limitation, print cartridges, print head, toner and drum) or damage
    caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation, any damage
    caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other than a
    Brother Authorized Service Representative, or from the use of supplies or consumable
    items that are non-Brother products. Operation of the DCP/Facsimile machine in excess
    of the specifications or with the Serial Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed
    abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser. In
    order to obtain warranty service, the DCP/Facsimile machine must be delivered or
    shipped freight prepaid by the end user/purchaser to a “Brother” Authorized Service
    Center, together with your Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.
    For laser products: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit on
    applicable models) during shipping will cause severe damage to the DCP/Facsimile and
    will VOID the Warranty. (Refer to your User’s Guide for proper packaging.)
    For ink-jet products: Do not remove the ink cartridges during shipping. Damage to your
    print head resulting from packing without the ink cartridges will VOID your warranty.
    (Refer to your User’s Guide for proper packaging.)
    BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED
    INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
    MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO
    THE EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY
    WAIVED.
    No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its
    Authorized Service Centers, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create
    another warranty or modify this warranty. This warranty states Brother’s entire liability
    and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the DCP/Facsimile machine
    to operate properly.
    Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of
    this DCP/Facsimile machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special,
    consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the
    use of or inability to use the product, even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the
    possibility of such damages. Since some Provinces do not allow the above limitation of
    liability, such limitation may not apply to you.
    This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights
    which vary from Providence to Providence.
    Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centers throughout
    Canada. For Technical Support or for the name and location of your nearest Authorized
