Introduction

Using This Manual

Thank you for purchasing a Brother fax machine. This fax machine has been designed to be simple to use, with LCD screen prompts to guide you through functions. However, you can use your fax machine to its fullest potential by taking a few minutes to read this manual.
Additionally, your fax machine has a Help Key. Press Copy/Help and then press
Start to print a list of basic operational steps and functions.

Finding Information

All chapter headings and subheadings are listed in the Table of Contents. You will be able to find information about a specific feature or function by checking the Index at the back of this manual. Also, throughout this manual, you’ll see special symbols alerting you to important information, cross-references, and warnings. Illustrations of some screen displays also help you choose the correct key-presses.

About fax machine

If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious. You’ll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
INTRODUCTION
1 - 1

Fax Tones and Handshake

When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones (CNG tones)—soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when you dial and press 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 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 40 seconds over the phone line, and the screen displays RECEIVE. If your fax machine is set to the FAX ONLY Mode, it will answer every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs up, your fax machine continues to send the “chirps” for about 40 seconds, and the screen continues to display “RECEIVE”. To cancel the receiving mode, press
When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL Mode, the fax 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 machines “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 40 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 Installation chapter for connecting a TAD to your fax machine.

, and they continue for about 40 seconds after dialing. During that

.

ECM (Error Correction Mode) (For FAX-333MC Only)

The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax 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 fax machine for this feature to work.

Choosing a Location

Place your fax machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the fax 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 fax machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. 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.

Multi-Line Connections (PBX)

Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to connect the fax 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 fax machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the fax machine. You can then leave the fax machine in FAX ONLY Mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
If the fax 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. (See Easy Receive, page 5-5.)
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 fax machine cannot be made.
If you are installing the fax 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 Answer Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
3
The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone service.

Custom Features on a Single Line

If you have Call Waiting, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering service, alarm system or any other custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of your fax machine.

LOCATION AND CONNECTIONS

Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD) (TAD Cannot Be Connected in Some Countries)

Sequence
You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the fax machine, the TAD answers all calls. The fax machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the fax 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 fax 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 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.
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line—your fax machine and TAD will both try to control the line.

Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the back of the fax machine, into the jack labeled EXT. Your fax machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack.
1
Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled LINE.
2
Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD’s telephone line jack (not to telephone set jack).)
3
Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The fax machine’s Ring Delay setting does not apply.)
4
Record the outgoing message (see below).
5
Set the TAD to answer calls.
6
See Message Storage (Function/Set, 8, 1) to VOICE:EXT. (For FAX-333MC only)
7
Set the Answer Mode to MC:MSG CTR. (For FAX-333MC only) On the FAX-202 or FAX-222, set the Answer Mode to TAD:ANSWER MACH.
Outgoing Message (OGM)
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 fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)
2
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
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.”

Connecting an External Telephone

Your fax 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 fax machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the back of the fax machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the fax machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call and switch to the fax machine, press Hook or Speaker Phone.
External Telephone can not be connected in some countries.

On-Screen Programming

User-Friendly Programming

We have designed your fax machine with on-screen programming and a Help key. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the functions your fax machine has to offer. (See Using This Manual, page 1-1.)
Since your fax programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen prompts to help you program your fax machine. All you need to do is follow the prompts as they guide you through the function menu selections and programming options and settings.

Function Mode

You can access the function mode by pressing Function/Set. When you enter the function mode, your fax machine displays a list of main menu options from which you can choose.
