PAPER
Your lntelliFAX^900/950M/980M/1500M is a plain
paper fax machine, therefore it will work with
almost all plain paper.
However please be aware that plain paper types
or grades can vary; and different types or grades
of plain paper do play a part in the quality of
output.
Almost any type of “copy or xerographic” plain
paper will give you good output.
For the best quality output we recommend a
“laser printer” plain paper, which is also readily
available in the market and competitively priced.

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is
specifically designed for wet locations.
Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals 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.

BÉTUP & PREFV\RAÎION BEFORE USE
■Il
liiiiilli
1. SETUP & PREPARATION BEFORE USE
Choosing a Suitable Place for Your Fax Machine
Use the following list as a guide to find a suitable place for your fax machine.
The Good Places*.,
Place your fax machine on a fiat, stable surface, such as a desk.
Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks.
Locate it near a telephone jack and a standard, grounded power outlet.
For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and
should be easily accessible.
iiiiiiiillE
And the Bad Places...
Avoid setting it up in a high-traffic area,
Avoid setting up the machine near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals, or refrigerators.
Do not select a place that exposes your fax machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture,
or dust.
Do not connect your fax 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 fax machine to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or
other equipment that might disturb the power supply.
Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless phones.
v\l.

Packing List
Please check to see that you have the following items:
When you pull the paper cassette, it is necessary to push down the paper plate until
the cassette “clicks” into position before you re-install the cassette to the fax machine.
Otherwise the “REFILL PAPER CASSETTE” will remain on the LCD display. Also,
please do not pull out or re-insert the cassette while the machine is doing a job (for
example, copying, transmitting or receiving), or a paper jam may occur.
4. Connect the handset,
5. Connect the power code.
When you connect the power, your fax machine will automatically print a power failure report,
and the display will show “01/01/1995 00:00”.
NOTICE
1. This fax machine must be grounded using a 3-prong plug.
2. Since the machine is grounded through the power outlet, you can protect yourself
from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone network by
keeping the power to your fax machine on before you connect it to a telephone line.
1-4
Page 14
SETUP &
6. Connect the telephone line.
Multi Line Connections (PBXs)
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 fax machine for you.
Handset curled cord
Telephone line cord
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
It is advisable to have a separate line for the fax machine. You can then leave the
machine in AUTO Answer Mode to receive faxes at any time of the 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 will prevent 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 fax machine can not be
made.
If you have call waiting, ring master, an alarm system, or any other custom calling
feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in operation of your fax unit.
Connecting to a Private Branch Exchange
The following points should be kept in mind if you are installing the machine to work
with a private branch exchange(PBX),
1) It is not guaranteed that the imit will operate correctly under all circumstances
with PBXs. 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 recom
mended that the Answer Mode be set to be MANUAL. (See page 7-2.) All incoming
calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
3) The unit may be used with either the pulse or tone dialing telephone types.
This key moves the LCD cursor to
the left. It also allows you to back
up one step when you are in a
function mode (see page 3-5) or
Telephone Index.

3. HOW TO USE ON-SCREEN PROGRAMMING (OSP) AND HELP KEY
User-friendly Programming
We have designed your fax machine with on-screen programming and a HELP key (only for FAX950M/980M/1500M), for user-friendly programming that helps you take full advantage of all the
functions your fax machine has to offer.
On-screen Programming (OSP)
Since your fax programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen prompt
messages to help you program your fax machine. All you need to do is follow the prompt
instructions as they guide you through the function menu selections and programming options
and settings.
Function Selection Table
________________________________________
If you have a basic understanding of how to program a fax machine, you can perform most of the
programming settings without the owner's manual. To help you understand what function
selections, options, and settings are found in your fax programs, we have the following Function
Selection Table.
Read through this table to gain a basic understanding of what your new fax model can do, and
then the next section will begin instructing you how to use on-screen programming.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Types of Numbers
When you store a number as a One-Touch or as a Speed-Dial number, you have a
choice of choosing the type of number. There are 4 options:
1. FAX (A fax number).
2. TEL (A telephone number).
3. F/T (Both a fax number and a telephone number)
4. CHAIN (A number, usually an access code, for chain dialing).
Chain Dialing
Sometimes you may want to choose from among several long-distance carriers when
you make a call. This is because rates may vary depending on the time and
destination. To take advantage of low rates, you can register the access code of a long
distance carrier as a One-Touch or a Speed-Dial number for chain dialing. To do this,
you store the access code as you would a regular number and register it as a “chain”
number. (See the step 10 of page 4-5.) Then, when you want to make a call, you use
this number in combination with the regular number, which also may be a OneTouch or a Speed-Dial number.
This is also important for transmissions using credit cards.
E
If you want to store a phone/credit card number to be used in your dialing sequence,
you must store that phone/credit card number as a “chain” number. You can start a
chain dialing call by pressing a One-Touch key or Speed-Dial number where your
chain number is stored. Next you press another One-Touch or Speed-Dial number for
the regular phone number (either FAX, TEL or F/T number), or enter the number
manually. And then press START to begin calling.
NOTE: When you send a fax using your credit card number in chain dialing, do NOT
send a cover page because your credit card number will be on it.

Automatic and Manual Re-dialing
If a number you have dialed is busy or your call did not go through for some other reason, you can
re-dial that number. There are two ways for re-dialing, “automatic” and “manual.” Automatic re
dialing can only be used for faxes that were sent using automatic transmission — not for
telephone calls. The factory setting is “auto re-dial on”, but you can change it to “auto re-dial
off’, if needed. If the re-dial function is set to “auto re-dial on”, it will automatically re-dial the
number 3 times at 5 minute intervabs before giving up. Whether the setting is on or off, the fax
machine will re-dial the number when you press PAUSE/REDIAL (manual re-dialing).

Setting Your Fax Machine for Multiple Resolution Transmission
This is a temporary setting for the current transmission.
You can set the resolution of the documents you send by pressing the RESOLUTION. Once you
set the resolution, all the pages will be sent with the same resolution. However, there may be
times when you want to send some pages with one type of resolution, such as “standard”, and other
pages in another resolution, such as “photo”. Ifyou send all pages in photo resolution, for instance,
it would take a great deal of time. It would be nice if you could specify the resolution for each page
to minimize transmission time. You are in luck because you can make such a setting using the
CURRENT. SETTINGS function.

a telephone call. If the recipient picks up the handset, your fax machine will ring. Then you can
pick up your handset and start a conversation. If you have both Call Reservation and Call Back
Message set to ON and the recipient does not pick up the handset when it rings, your fax machine
will leave a fax message asking them to call you back.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
1. Next-FAX Reservation cannot be used when there are documents in the document
feeder awaiting timer transmission or polled waiting or when the interrupt
function is in use.
2. When you are making a call using Next-FAX Reservation, you can dial manually,
or use One-Touch, Speed-Dial, Redial, or Chain dialing. However, when you use
One-Touch dialing, the screen will display the number of the One-Touch number
you are using, such as “>K0r’ and not the name of the person you are calling.
Similarly, if you use Speed-dialing, the screen will show you only the Speed-Dial
number, such as “#02”.
3. You can set the resolution for Next-FAX Reservation by using the RESOLUTION
key, but you cannot change any settings using the FUNCTION, CALL, COVERPAGE, TIMER, COVER PAGE keys, etc. (For example you cannot change a
setting for multiple resolution transmission by using the CURRENT SETTING
key.)
4. To cancel a Next-FAX Reservation, remove the documents and press STOP.
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a means for checking the integrity of a fax transmission
while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are only possible between machines that both have
the ECM feature. Your machine has this ECM feature so if other party also has ECM, you can
send and receive a fax message that is continually checked for its integrity.
■iiili
Sufficient memory must be available for this feature to work.
Also this feature will take longer to complete transmissions.

REMOTE ACTIVATION
B) REMOTE ACTIVATION
If you are using a touch tone phone, you can remotely activate or deactivate your fax machine from
an external phone {a phone connected to your fax machine) or from an extension phone (a phone
connected to the same line as your fax machine).
FOR YOUR INFORMIOM:
Connecting an External or Extension Telephone to the Unit
You may connect an external or extension telephone to your fax machine, as shown
below. Use the “EXT.” jack on your fax machine.
Alternatively, you may wish to use this “EXT.” jack to connect a telephone answering
device (TAD).
If the external telephone is in use, the warning message “EXTERNAL TEL IN USE”
will be displayed. When the handset on the fax machine is picked up, an alarm will
sound. You can disconnect the external phone and switch to fax machine by pressing
HOOK.
Using Remote Codes
If you are on an external phone (or extension phone), and you get an incoming fax call, you can
transfer the call back to your fax machine by entering a remote activation code. In the same
situation, if you get a telephone call from someone who requests that you switch on your fax, you
can transfer the call back to your fax machine with this code. Also, you can deactivate the fax
machine with another remote code during the F/T ringing from extension phone. In essence you
have one remote code to activate your fax machine and one remote code to deactivate it. Theremote code to activate is “*51”, and the remote code to deactivate is “#51”. If you want
to set your own code, see the following section, “Registering Remote Codes”.

The TAD Mode
When you leave your fax machine set in TAD mode, phone calls will be forwarded to the externally
connected telephone answering device, and yoiir fax calls will be received automatically.
Helpful Hints When You Use TAD Mode
1. You can inform callers beforehand that if they call manually and get your
telephone answering device when they want to send a fax, all they have to do
is press your remote code (*51 unless you have changed it) to activate your fax
machine.
2. Another alternative is to record a TAD message that says, for example, “This
answering machine is connected to a fax unit. If you leave a voice message,
please speak after beep. If you send a fax message, please press (your remote
activation code) after the beep. Thank you.”
3. You need to erase the incoming messages on your external telephone answering
device when it’s full, or TAD mode will not answer any calls, faxes or otherwise.

D) DISTINCTIVE RINGING (Only for FAX-950M/980M/1500M)
Distinctive Ringing
:yt5i¥eQB*INFORMATION
Whnt Is Distinctive Ringing?
Distinctive ringing is a service offered by telephone carriers that allows you to have
several different numbers on one line, each with its own distinctive ring. This way,
when you get an incoming call, you can identify what number is being called by the
ring pattern. Your local telephone carrier can provide you with more information
about this service. This service is usually offered as a monthly charge to your normal
phone bill.
Can My Fax Machine Utilize Distinctive Ringing?
Yes, it has a distinctive ringing function that allows you to register one additiu^.al
distinctive ring pattern. (See page 7-14.) The ring pattern you register should be for
the number you want to use as your dedicated fax number. Once you register the
pattern, your fax machine will be able to identify its own incoming calls and
automatically start to receive faxes, regardless of how you last set the answer mode.
You can only register one additional ring pattern.
Can I Change the Setting Later?
Yes, you can change or cancel the distinctive ringing setting anytime.
How Will the Fax Machine Treat All Other Distinctive Ringing?
It will act the way it normally does. In other words, the fax machine will treat all the
other unregistered, distinctive rings according to the machine’s answer mode setting
(MANUAL, AUTO, F/T, or TAD). For instance, if a call comes in that is not for your
(registered) dedicated fax number, and the machine is set to MANUAL, the fax
machine will respond as per the MANUAL mode.
How Does the Distinctive Ringing Function Work?
When you receive an incoming call, the fax machine compares the ring pattern with
the one that is registered. If the two are identical, then the fax machine automatically
accepts the call as an incoming fax. Otherwise, the fax machine will treat the call in
the usual way, depending on the machine's answer mode setting (MANUAL, AUTO,
F/T, or TAD). The function has 3 modes: (ON, SET, OFF). Set it to ON when you want
to use it, and to OFF when you do not want to use it. Use the SET mode for registering
a number.
WhaCs the Advantage of Using the Distinctive Ringing Function?
By registering a ring pattern (see page 7-14) you may operate your fax machine in
the most efficient way possible should you require the distinctive ringing service.
With the distinctive function ON, you can receive your faxes automatically, and
people who call you on one of your other numbers do not have to talk to your fax
machine. It basically gives you two independent numbers by using only one line.

FAXES AND OTHER CALLS
Helpful Hints If You Do Not Have a Distinctive Ringing Service...
Your phone cair-ier can give you more information about it.
If you are not currently receiving a distinctive ringing service, don't
try to set up your distinctive ring feature. It may cause your machine
to malfunction. If your phone carrier provides this service and you decide to
use it, it's a good idea to use one of the new numbers you receive for your fax
number and keep the old number for it's original purpose. Remember to tell
your customers and colleagues your new fax number.
If You Already Have a Distinctive Ringing Service...
It is a good idea to register the ring pattern of your existing dedicated fax
number. Use the registration mode under the distinctive ringing function. You
will not be able to use the fax machine's distinctive ringing feature until this
pattern has been registered. {See below.)
Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function
If you currently have a distinctive ringing service (a telephone service that provides you with
multiple numbers, each with a distinctive ring, on one line), you can register any one of the ring
patterns of your line with your fax machine so that it can immediately identify a call as an
incoming fax by the distinctive ring pattern it uses. You also will need to arrange to have someone
call your fax machine to do this.
You may have difficulty registering a distinctive ring pattern if your fax machine is
connected to a telephone answering device. Disconnect it before you set this function.

- You now must wait for someone to
call the corresponding fax number
with distinctive pattern or ask a
friend to call your specific distinctive

8. Once someone calls, listen carefully
and see if the rinsr pattern is the one
corresponding to the number vni] went
to register. If it is and the LCD shows
the message “PICKUP TO SET” after
two or more rings, lift up the handset
on the fax machine.

While You Are Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function:
1. When someone calls your fax machine, it will continue to ring until you pick up the
handset or press HOOK, even if you have set the number of rings.
2. If you get a call and the ring pattern is NOT the one you want to register, press
STOP. (See step 8 above.)
3. There are some ring patterns that cannot be registered.
4. Answer mode is automatically switched to MANUAL during registration. The
answer mode that you had set before distinctive ringing registration now flashes.
NOTE: Some Telephone Answering Devices may pick up a call before your fax
machine finishes detecting the ringing pattern. We suggest you set your
Answering Device ring delay to its maximum setting.
Once You Have Finished Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function:
1. The Distinctive Ringing function will be set to ON, and you will be ready to use
this function.
2. You will not hear the first two rings of all incoming calls on the fax machine.
However, other extension phones connected to the same line, or any external
phones connected to the fax machine will ring. If the fax machine recognizes the
ring pattern, it will automatically accept the call as an incoming fax, and you will
not hear any further ringing. Otherwise, you will hear the phones continue to ring,
and the fax machine will also ring.
3. You can receive faxes on numbers other than the one you registered. The fax
machine will respond to these calls according to how you have set the answer mode
(MANUAL, AUTO, F/T, or TAD).
7-15
Page 73
Helpful Hints Remember that you should let your phone ring at least twice before answering
to allow the fax machine to pick up first if necessary. Answering an incoming
call before two rings will defeat the purpose of the distinctive ringing function.
You should turn the distinctive ringing function to OFF if you move and/or get
a new number. To turn off the distinctive ringing set-up go into function mode.
How to Turn the Distinctive Ringing Function ON or OFF
The distinctive ringing function is designed to accommodate the distinctive ringing service (a
telephone service that provides you wdth multiple numbers, each with a distinctive ring, on one
line). Please note that you need to register the ring pattern of your fax number before you can set
the distinctive ringing mode ON. (See page 7-14.)

closer than 4 mm (1/8 inch) from the edge.
P .0^
2. You can select the resolution to either SUPERFINE or PHOTO. Set the
resolution to either one. If you do not set the resolution, the fax machine
automatically makes a copy in the SUPERFINE setting. For example, if your
original is a photo, you may select the PHOTO resolution. (To get the PHOTO
resolution, press the RESOLUTION key repeatedly until both lights are lit.)
You can also set the resolution page by page using the CURRENT SETTINGS
function. (See page 6-12.)
3. Do not pull on the paper while copying is in progress. This may ruin the copied
image.

Making Multiple Copies (Only for FAX-950M!980M! 1500M)
There are two ways to make multiple copies on your fax machine. The first is the stacking method, this
will make (#) copies of page one, (#) copies of page two and so on. These will all be stacked on top of each
other. The second method is the sorting or collating method. This is when the fax machine scans the
entire document and then makes 1 copy of page 1, 2, 3, 4 in order. Then makes a second copy of 1, 2, 3,
4 until a total of n copies has been made.
(Stacking)
YS TO BE PR
1. Insert the documents face down into
the feeder.
2. Press COPY.

FOR YQUR INFORMATION:
What Is Polling?
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You may use
your machine to “poll” other machines, or you may ask someone to poll your machine.
The party who polls pays for the cost of the call.
How Does It Work ?
First two parties set up their fax machines so that they can accommodate polling.
Then one party leaves documents in the fax machine so that the other party can call
up and have the documents sent to them.
When to Use Polling?
Use polling to control the cost of sending a fax.
1. If you want to pay for the cost of the call: Send out faxes to other parties as you
normally would, and if another party has documents to send you, ask if you can
poll for it.
2. If you want others to pay for the cost of the call: Ask them to poll your fax machine
for documents they want, and have them fax any documents that you want.
* There are some fax machine that will not respond to this function.
Helpful Hints Using Polling Effectively (Examples)
Problem No. 1: You want another party to send you a long fax, but they do not
want to pay for the call.
Solution; Ask them to leave the document in their fax machine so you can
poll for it.
Problem No. 2: Sales representatives have difficulty sending in faxes to the
head office’s fax machine because it is busy so much of the time.
Solution: Head office can poll the sales representatives’ fax machines.
Problem No. 3: Because of the time or location, it is cheaper for someone else to
call you than it is for you to make the call.
Solution: Ask the other party to poll for the documents and offer to pay for
the call at their lower rate.

10. PASSWORD
FOR YOUR INF0RMAÌI0N
What is Password ?
The password is provided for use in a closed network of fax machines. It can also be
used to prevent reception of “junk faxes” that can interfere with your daily opera
tions. It can also help jmu avoid the transmission of faxes to the wrong parties.
How Does it Work ?
First receiving party set up “RECEIVE PASSWORD” to “ON” and then enter four
digit of password.
When you send a fax message, you should add the same four digit password. In case
this four digit password of both sending and receiving party machines are same, you
can send/receive message. Also, both side’s machine should be Brother (or compat
ible) machine.
What is Password Plus ?
ililiilllliili
If you have activated the password function, only people who have set the correct
password code on their Brother fax machine can exchange faxes with your machine.
To help avoid difficulties, you can use the Password Plus feature. It is most effective
to prevent reception of “junk faxes”. In case you choose “Password Plus” in “RE
CEIVE PASSWORD”, the machine will accept to receive the document not only sent
by the party with correct password, but also sent by the party who is listed in your
One-Touch dial numbers. (The machine detects the last four digit number and
whether it matches last four digit number in previously registered in One-Touch
dials. In this case, the sending machine must not be Brother fax machine.)
