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 MFC/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.

About Fax Machines

If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious. Soon, you’ll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.

Custom Features

Do You Have Voice Mail on the Phone Line?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line on which you will install your new fax machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will
conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls.
Why Should There Be Trouble?
Since both fax machines and Voice Mail pick up the line at the number of rings you have set, each of them has the ability to keep the other from receiving calls. For example, if your Voice Mail is set to answer after two rings and your fax machine is set to answer after four, your Voice Mail will keep your fax machine from receiving faxes. If you set Voice Mail and the Brother machine to answer at the same number of rings, there is no way of knowing which one will answer first. It is important to remember that neither Voice Mail nor the fax machine can pass the call back to the other after the call has been answered.
How Can You Avoid Possible Problems?
A very good way to avoid a problem like the one mentioned previously is to get a second phone number on your present phone line. Many people with Voice
Mail opt for this choice, which is called “Distinctive Ring”, and they are very satisfied with it. For details about this type of custom service, please see
Distinctive Ring, page 8-1.
Another way to avoid a possible problem is to replace your Voice Mail with an answering machine. Your Brother fax machine is designed to work in tandem with an answering machine or TAD (telephone answering device). (See
Connecting an External TAD (Telephone Answering Device), Page 2-10.)
INTRODUCTION 1 - 5

Fax Tones and Handshake

When someone is sending a fax, the machine sends fax calling tones (CNG tones)—soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when you dial and press Fax Start; they continue for about 60 seconds after dialing. During that time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the receiving machine. Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone line. You’ll soon learn to listen for these soft beeps each time you answer a phone on your fax line, so you can know if you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones-loud, chirping sounds. A receiving fax chirps for about 60 seconds over the phone line, and the LCD shows RECEIVING. If your machine is set to the FAX mode, it will answer every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs up, your machine continues to send the “chirps” for about 60 seconds, and the screen continues to display RECEIVING. To cancel the receiving mode, press Stop/Exit.
When your machine answers in FAX/TEL mode, the machine listens for CNG tones and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax “handshake” is the time in which the sending machine’s CNG tones and the receiving machine’s “chirps” overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4 seconds, so the machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones only last for about 60 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax line, your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is answered. Pay special attention to the directions in the Assembly and Connections chapter for connecting a TAD to your machine.

ECM (Error Correction Mode)

The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the machine to check the integrity of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are possible only between machines that both have the ECM feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are continuously checked for their integrity. Sufficient memory must be available in your machine for this feature to work.

Choosing a Location

Place your machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the machine near a telephone jack and a standard, grounded power outlet.
Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Make sure nothing blocks the flow of air from the fan on the sides of the machine. Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless phones.
NO !
WARNING
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the
product against lightning storms.
Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for a wet location.
Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There
may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.
To reduce the risk of shock or fire, use only a No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunications line cord.

Connecting an External Telephone

Your machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering device) directly to your machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the left side of the machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect a call on the external phone and switch to the machine, press Hook.

Connecting an External TAD (Telephone Answering Device)

Sequence
You might choose to connect an answering system. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls. The machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the machine lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message.
The TAD must answer within four rings (the recommended setting is two rings). The machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8–10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax “handshake.” Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds 4 rings.
Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the left side of the machine in the jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack.
If You Subscribe to your Telephone Company’s Distinctive Ring Service:
You may connect an external TAD to a separate wall jack only if you subscribe to your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service, have registered the distinctive ring pattern on your machine, use that number as a fax number and have set your machine’s Receive mode to MANUAL. The recommended setting is three or four rings on the external TAD when you have the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service.
If You Do Not Subscribe to Distinctive Ring Service:
You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your Brother machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the phone line. (See illustration on Page 2-11.)
2 - 10
ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line.
1
Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the machine in the jack labeled LINE.
2
Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the machine in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD’s telephone line jack, and not its telephone set jack.)
3
Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The machine’s Ring Delay setting does not apply).
4
Record the outgoing message. (See below.)
5
Set the Receive mode to TAD by pressing Mode until both FAX and FAX/TEL lights are on.
Recording Outgoing Message (OGM) on External TAD
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
1
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)
2
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. (See Easy Receive, Page 5-3.)
3
End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing 5 1 and Start.
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second silence because the machine cannot hear fax tones over a resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but if your machine has trouble receiving, then you must rerecord the OGM to include it.

Special Line Considerations

Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines that pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are usually passed down or “rolled over” to the next available phone line in a preset order.
Your machine can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last number in the sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not put the machine on any of the other numbers; when the other lines are busy and a second fax call is received, the fax call would be transferred to a line that does not have a fax machine. Your machine will work best on a dedicated line.
Two-Line Phone System
A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers on the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your machine must be plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal in size and appearance and both may contain four wires (black, red, green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in a two-line phone and see if it can access both lines. If it can, you must separate the line for your machine.
Converting Telephone Wall Outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 receptacle. The first two ways may require assistance from the telephone company. You can change the wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump one of the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1, Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). If your machine is on Line 1, plug the machine into L1 of the triplex adapter. If your machine is on Line 2, plug it into L2 of the triplex adapter.

Installing Machine, External Two-Line TAD, and Two-Line Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD) and a two-line telephone, your machine must be isolated on one line at both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the machine on Line 2, which is our assumption in the following steps. The back of the two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2. You will need at least three telephone line cords, the one that came with your machine and two for your external two-line TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
1
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your machine.
2
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your fax machine into the L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the left side of the machine.
3
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line TAD.
4
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the left side of the machine.

You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways to add a two-line telephone to the machine’s wall outlet. You can plug the telephone line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the two-line TAD.

Multi-Line Connections (PBX)

Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to connect the machine to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask them to connect the machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the machine. You can then leave the machine in FAX mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
If the machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from being activated each time a telephone call is received.
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the machine cannot be made.
If you are installing the machine to work with a PBX:
1
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your PBX.
2
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended that the Receive Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
3
The machine may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.

Custom Features on Your Phone Line

If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an answering service, or an alarm system, or other custom feature on one phone line, it may create a problem with the operation of your fax machine. (See I have difficulty with custom features on a single line, Page 19-8.)

Setting F/T Ring Time (For FAX/TEL Mode Only)

If you set the receive mode to FAX/TEL, you’ll need to determine how long the machine will send you its special double-ring when you have a voice call. This ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line ring the special double-ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the machine. (See Operation from Extension Telephone, page 5-5.)

You can let the machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine signals you with a double-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the machine continues for the set time.

Easy Receive

When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start when you answer a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few seconds. When you see RECEIVING on the LCD or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack, just replace the handset. Your machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the machine to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or external phone. Selecting SEMI lets the machine receive the call only if you’ve answered it at the Brother machine. Selecting OFF means you’ll have to activate the machine yourself, by pressing Fax StartOR—by pressing
5 1 if you are not at the machine.
If you’ve set this feature to ON, but your machine doesn’t automatically connect a fax call when you lift an external or extension phone handset, press the Fax Receive code 5 1. At the machine, lift the handset and then press Fax Start. (See

Operation from Extension Telephone or External Telephone

If you answer a fax call on an extension phone (or on an external phone in the EXT. jack), you can make your machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the machine starts to receive a fax. (See
If the machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At the machine’s phone, press Fax Start, then hang up. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the LCD shows RECEIVING) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Fax Start to send the fax.)

For FAX/TEL Mode Only

When the machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (double­ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call. If you’re at the machine, you can lift the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press # 5 1 between the double rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the machine by pressing 5 1.

Polling

Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can use your machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone poll your machine.
All parties involved in polling need to set up their fax machines to accommodate polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a fax, they pay for the call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the polling function.

Before You Begin

Before you begin sending faxes, please be sure to read all the instructions and cautions listed below for placing originals in the automatic document feeder.

Using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)

Documents must be between 5.8 and 8.5 inches wide between 3.9 and 14.1 inches long. Your machine can scan an image only 8.15 inches wide, regardless of how wide the paper is.
Fan the pages before placing them in the ADF.
Make sure you insert documents face down, top edge first.
Adjust the paper guides to fit the width of your document.
The ADF (automatic document feeder) can hold up to 30 Pages, feeding each one individually through the machine. If you “Stagger” the pages, the ADF can hold up to 50 pages. Use standard (17 lb–24 lb) paper when using the ADF. If you’re using heavier paper, feed each sheet individually to prevent paper jams.
DO NOT use curled, wrinkled, folded or ripped paper, or paper with staples, paper clips, paste or tape attached. DO NOT use cardboard, newspaper or fabric.
Make sure documents written in ink are completely dry.
Before you send a fax press Resolution to select the resolution for the
document you’re sending. (See
If you send faxes from a computer on the same phone line and your Brother machine intercepts them, set Easy Receive to OFF.

Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. Using the Broadcast key, you can include Groups, One Touch locations, Speed Dial locations, plus up to 50 manually dialed numbers. However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs in memory and the number of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the maximum locations available, you will not be able to set up transmissions using dual access and the timer. (See
The easiest way to broadcast is to press Group keys, you can include One Touch, Speed Dial, and manually, dialed numbers in the same broadcast. You must press Broadcast between each of these locations. Use the Telephone Index to help you choose the numbers easily.
After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically to let you know the results.
To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop/Exit. The LCD asks if you want to cancel all locations or the location that is being sent.

Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers

Sometimes you may want to choose from among several long distance carriers when you make a call. Rates may vary depending upon the time and destination. To take advantage of low rates, you can store the access codes or long-distance carriers as One Touch and Speed Dial numbers. You can store these long dialing sequences by dividing them and setting them up separately in any combination. You can even include manual dialing using the dial pad. The combined number will be dialed in the order you entered it, as soon as you press Fax Start. (See
Storing One Touch Dial Numbers, Page 7-1.)
For example, you store “555” on One Touch key 03 and “7000” on One Touch key 04. If you press One Touch 03, 04 and Fax Start you can dial “555-7000”. To temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with manual dialing using the dial pad. For example, to change the number to 555­7001 you could press One Touch 03 and then press 7, 0, 0, 1 using the dialing pad.
If you must wait for another dial tone at any point in the dialing sequence, store a pause at that

Custom Features

Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone services offered by some telephone companies.
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an answering service, or on alarm system custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your machine. (
custom features on a single line, Page
If you have Voice Mail on you phone line, please read the following carefully.
19-8.)

Distinctive Ring

The term “Distinctive Ring” is used by Brother to identify a phone company service that is given many names, depending on the Telephone Company you are using. For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, Teen­Ring, Indent-a-Call or Indent-a-Ring.
What Does Your Telephone Companys Distinctive Ring Do?
Your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service allows more than one number to be on the same phone line. If you need more than one phone number, it is an inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional line. Each phone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine.
Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.
Note

What Does Brothers Distinctive Ring Do?
The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your machine to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service. You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receiving only faxes.

Do You Have Voice Mail?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line you on which will install your new machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine
will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, this Distinctive Ring feature allows the use of more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the fax machine can coexist peacefully. If each
one has a separate phone number, neither will interfere with the other’s work. If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring Service from the telephone company,
you will need to follow the directions below to “register” the new Distinctive Ring pattern they provided, so your fax machine can recognize its incoming calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can
Note
switch it off temporarily and later turn it back on. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this setting.
Before You Choose the Ring Pattern to Register
You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the machine. Some ring patterns cannot be registered. Please refer to some popular ring pattern examples that will be provided from the phone company in the USA and Canada that are shown in the Brother compatibility table below.

please check for other available ring pattern choices from the phone company.
The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because the fax must
«listen» to the ring pattern (compare it to the pattern that was “registered”). (Other telephones on the line will ring.)
If you program the fax machine correctly, it will recognize the registered ring pattern of the “fax number” within 2 ring patterns and then automatically answer with a fax tone. When the “voice number” is called, the fax machine will not interrupt the call.

Very Important

If you have Voice Mail, or a TAD (Telephone Answering Device) and want to keep one of your phone numbers dedicated only to fax calls, you must leave the machine in MANUAL mode at all times while using the Distinctive Ring Feature. Here’s why: Manual mode will never pick up a call by itself, since it is «Neutral». When the machine is in this «neutral» mode, the Distinctive Ring Feature can be activated. The distinctive ring feature is actually an answering mode. So, do not activate FAX mode or FAX/TEL mode while using distinctive ring; otherwise, the fax machine will answer calls for all the numbers.

Caller ID

The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. This service provides the name or telephone number of your caller on the LCD as the line rings.
After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name.

PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information.
