Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Brother PC-401, PC-402RF, and PC-404RF ribbon codes?
PC-401 refers to the complete ribbon cartridge assembly including the reusable plastic frame. PC-402RF and PC-404RF represent multi-pack refill ribbon rolls (2-pack and 4-pack respectively) that mount directly onto your existing PC-401 frame, providing an economical refill method.
Why does page output decrease when faxing documents with heavy headers or solid shapes?
Thermal transfer ribbons advance a fixed length of film for every printed page. Higher text density or graphic headers consume more thermal transfer wax coating per pass, which can cause subtle variations in density if printing high-coverage documents repeatedly.
What is the best way to store spare thermal transfer ribbons prior to installation?
Store unopened ribbon rolls horizontally in a cool, dry environment away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Excessive room heat can soften the wax film layers, causing adjacent ribbon wraps to adhere to each other before loading into the printer.
