+== Supplies ==
+From: http://www.brother-usa.com/MultiFunction/ModelDetail/4/DCP7065DN/supp#.U-K14mPp5VM
+* Toner Cartridges: TN450
+* We have a spare drum unit (DR420) in the safe. It doesn't need to be replaced nearly as often as toner does.
+== Helpful Hint ==
+It appears that the size of images to be printed defaults to metric - a member has suggested this solution.
+Comment: the size of things printed is going to depend on the printer driver, it isn't a metric or Imperial thing.
+When I clicked on a BMP file, IrfanVew started.
+Select Print
+   Custom
+    Width:  15.10
+    Height: 10.10
+     Look at the resulting image size on paper
+     The cm/in should match the BMP size
