Who is covered:

 This limited warranty (“warranty”) is given

only to the original end-use/retail purchaser (referred to in this warranty as “Original Purchaser”) of the accompanying product, consumables and accessories (collectively referred to in this warranty as “this Product”).

 If you purchased a product from someone

other than an authorized Brother reseller in the United States or if the product was used (including but not limited to floor models or refurbished product), prior to your purchase you are not the Original Purchaser and the product that you purchased is not covered by this warranty.

What is covered:

 This Product includes a Machine and

Consumable and Accessory Items. Consumable and Accessory Items include but are not limited to print heads, toner, drums, ink cartridges, print cartridges, refill ribbons, therma PLUS paper, thermal paper, and the cordless handset battery.

 Except as otherwise provided herein,

Brother warrants that the Machine and the accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items will be free from defects in materials and workmanship, when used under normal conditions.

 This warranty applies only to products

purchased and used in the United States. For products purchased in, but used outside, the United States, this warranty covers only warranty service within the United States (and does not include shipping outside the United States).

What is the length of the Warranty Periods:

 Machines: one year from the original

purchase date.

 Accompanying Consumable and

Accessory Items: 90 days from the original purchase date or the rated life of consumable, whichever comes first.

What is NOT covered:

This warranty does not cover: 1 Physical damage to this Product; 2 Damage caused by improper installation,

improper or abnormal use, misuse, neglect or accident (including but not limited to transporting this Product without the proper preparation and/or packaging);

3 Damage caused by another device or

software used with this Product (including but not limited to damage resulting from

use of non Brother Consumable and Accessory Items);

4 Consumable and Accessory Items that

expired in accordance with a rated life; and,

5 Problems arising from other than defects in

materials or workmanship.

6 Normal Periodic Maintenance Items, such

as Paper Feeding Kit, Fuser and Laser Units.

This limited warranty is VOID if this Product has been altered or modified in any way (including but not limited to attempted warranty repair without authorization from Brother and/or alteration/removal of the serial number).

What to do if you think your Product is eligible for warranty service:

Report your issue to either our Customer Service Hotline at 1-800-284-4329 MFC and DCP and 1-800-276-7746 Printers, or to a Brother Authorized Service Center within the applicable warranty period. Supply Brother or the Brother Authorized Service Center with a copy of your dated bill of sale showing that this Product was purchased within the U.S. For the name of local Brother Authorized Service Center(s), call 1-800-521-2846.

What Brother will ask you to do:

After contacting Brother or a Brother Authorized Service Center, you may be required to deliver (by hand if you prefer) or send the Product properly packaged, freight prepaid, to the Authorized Service Center together with a photocopy of your bill of sale.

You are responsible for the cost of shipping, packing product, and insurance (if you desire). You are also responsible for loss or damage to this Product in shipping.

What Brother will do:

If the problem reported concerning your Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items is covered by this warranty and to Brother or an Authorized Service Center within the applicable warranty period, Brother or its Authorized Service Center will repair or replace the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items at no charge to you for parts or labor. The decision as to whether to repair or replace the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items is made by Brother in its sole

if you first reported the problem

(USA only)

discretion. Brother reserves the right to supply a refurbished or remanufactured replacement Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items and use refurbished parts provided such replacement products conform to the manufacturer's specifications for new product/parts. The repaired or replacement Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items will be returned to you freight prepaid or made available for you to pick up at a conveniently located Authorized Service Center.

If the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items are not covered by this warranty (either stage), you will be charged for shipping the Machine and/or accompanying Consumable and Accessory Items back to you and charged for any service and/or replacement parts/products at Brother's then current published rates.

The foregoing are your sole (i.e., only) and exclusive remedies under this warranty.

What happens when Brother elects to replace your Machine:

When a replacement Machine is authorized by Brother, and you have delivered the Machine to an Authorized Service Center, the Authorized Service Center will provide you with a replacement Machine after receiving one from Brother. If you are dealing directly with Brother, Brother will send to you a replacement Machine with the understanding that you will, after receipt of the replacement Machine, supply the required proof of purchase information, together with the Machine that Brother agreed to replace. You are then expected to pack the Machine that Brother agreed to replace in the package from the replacement Machine and return it to Brother using the pre-paid freight bill supplied by Brother in accordance with the instructions provided by Brother. Since you will be in possession of two machines, Brother will require that you provide a valid major credit card number. Brother will issue a hold against the credit card account number that you provide until Brother receives your original Product and determines that your original Product is entitled to warranty coverage. Your credit card will be charged up to the cost of a new Product only if: (i) you do not return your original Product to Brother within five (5) business days; (ii) the problems with your original Product are not covered by the limited warranty; (iii) the proper packaging instructions are not followed and has caused damage to the product; or (iv) the warranty period on your original Product has expired or

has not been sufficiently validated with a copy of the proof of purchase (bill of sale). The replacement Machine you receive (even if refurbished or remanufactured) will be covered by the balance of the limited warranty period remaining on the original Product, plus an additional thirty (30) days. You will keep the replacement Machine that is sent to you and your original Machine shall become the property of Brother. Retain your original

Accessory Items and a copy of the return freight bill, signed by the courier.

Limitations:

Brother is not responsible for damage to or loss of any equipment, media, programs or data related to the use of this Product. Except for that repair or replacement as described above, Brother shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental or consequential damages or specific relief. Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of consequential or incidental damages, the above limitation may not apply to you.

THIS WARRANTY IS GIVEN IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WRITTEN OR ORAL, WHETHER EXPRESSED BY AFFIRMATION, PROMISE, DESCRIPTION, DRAWING, MODEL OR SAMPLE. ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THIS ONE, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED.

 This Limited Warranty is the only warranty

that Brother is giving for this Product. It is

the final expression and the exclusive and only statement of Brother's obligations to

you. It replaces all other agreements and understandings that you may have with Brother or its representatives.

 This warranty gives you certain rights and

you may also have other rights that may vary from state to state.

 This Limited Warranty (and Brother's

obligation to you) may not be changed in any way unless you and Brother sign the same piece of paper in which we (1) refer to this Product and your bill of sale date, (2) describe the change to this warranty and (3) agree to make that change.

Important:

We recommend that you keep all original packing materials, in the event that you ship this Product.

BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER MACHINE

LIMITED WARRANTY

(Canada only)

Pursuant to the limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts, Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. ("Brother"), or its Authorized Service Centres, will repair or replace (at Brother's sole discretion) this MFC machine free of charge if defective in material or workmanship. This warranty applies only to products purchased and used in Canada.

This limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables (including, without limitation, ink cartridges, print cartridges, toner cartridges, drum units, OPC belts, fixing units, print heads, paper feed rollers, transfer rolls, cleaning rollers, waste toner packs, oil bottles) 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 if shipped out of the country.

The use of supplies or consumable items that are non-Brother products may void your warranty. This limited warranty ceases when this machine is rented, sold, or otherwise disposed of. Operation of the MFC machine in excess of the specifications or with the Serial Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser.

In order to obtain warranty service, the MFC machine must be delivered or shipped freight prepaid by the end-user/purchaser to a "Brother" Authorized Service Centre, together with your Canadian Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.

When shipping or transporting your MFC machine, please refer to your Operation Manual for the proper packaging procedures. Improper packaging may cause severe damage to the machine during shipping and will void the warranty.

For Laser units: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit, waste toner packs or oil bottles on applicable models) during shipping or transport will cause severe damage to the Laser MFC machine and will void the Warranty.

For inkjet units: (When shipping your Inkjet MFC machine remove the ink cartridges and replace them with the original protective parts. If original protective parts are not available, leave ink cartridges installed. Please avoid shipping the unit without original protective parts or ink cartridges.) Damage to your print head resulting from packing the Inkjet MFC machine without the ink cartridges or the protective parts will void your warranty.

BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATIONS, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY WAIVED.

No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its Authorized Service Centres, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create another warranty or modify this warranty. The warranty states Brother's entire liability and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the MFC machine to operate properly.

Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of this MFC machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the use of or inability to use the product, even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the possibility of such damages. Since some Provinces do not allow the above limitation of liability, such limitation, may not apply to you

This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from Province to Province.

Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centres throughout Canada. For Technical Assistance or for the name and location of your nearest Authorized Service Centre call 1-877-Brother.

Acceptable paper and other media

The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you are using in the machine.

To get the best print quality for the settings you have chosen, always set the Paper Type to match the type of paper you load.

You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, transparencies and envelopes.

We recommend testing various paper types before buying large quantities.

For best results, use Brother paper.

 When you print on inkjet paper (coated

paper), transparencies and photo paper, be sure to choose the proper media in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in the Paper Type setting of the menu. (See Paper Type on page 22.)

 When you print on Brother photo paper,

load the instruction sheet included with the photo paper in the paper tray first, and then put the photo paper on top of the instruction sheet.

 When you use transparencies or photo

paper, remove each sheet at once to prevent smudging or paper jams.

 Avoid touching the printed surface of the

paper immediately after printing; the surface may not be completely dry and may stain your fingers.

Handling and using media 2

 Store paper in its original packaging, and

keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

 The coated side of photo paper is shiny.

Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side. Load photo paper with the shiny side facing down.

 Avoid touching either side of

transparencies because they absorb water and perspiration easily, and this may cause decreased output quality. Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only transparencies recommended for inkjet printing.

DO NOT use the following kinds of paper:

Improper Setup

• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped paper

Recommended media 2

To get the best print quality, we suggest using Brother paper. (See table below.)

We recommend using ‘3M Transparency Film’ when you print on transparencies.

Voice operations 7

Voice calls can be made either with an external telephone, by dialing manually, or by using Quick Dial numbers.

Tone or Pulse (Canada only) 7

If you have a Pulse dialing service, but need to send Tone signals (for example, for telephone banking), follow the instructions below:

a Pick up the handset of an external

telephone or press Hook.

b Press # on the machine’s control panel.

Any digits dialed after this will send tone signals.

Fax/Tel mode when the power key is off 7

You can change the default setting of the On/Off key to Fax Receive:On so that you can receive faxes when the power key is off. (See On/Off setting on page 20.) Fax/Tel mode will work in the following way.

Fax/Tel mode does not work when the power key is off. The machine will not answer telephone or fax calls and will keep ringing. If you are at an external or extension telephone, lift the handset and talk. If you hear fax tones, hold the handset until Easy Receive activates your machine. If the other party says they want to send you a fax, activate the machine by pressing l 51.

When you hang up, the machine will return to the Pulse dialing service.

Lift the external telephone’s handset, and then press Hook to answer.

Chapter 7

Telephone services 7

Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer.

Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, answering services, alarm systems or other custom features on one telephone line may affect the way your machine works. If you have Voice Mail on your telephone line, please read the following carefully.

Voice Mail 7

If you have Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Brother machine, Voice Mail and the Brother machine will conflict with each other when receiving incoming calls.

For example, if your Voice Mail is set to answer after 4 rings and your Brother machine is set to answer after 2 rings, then your Brother machine will answer first. This will prevent callers from being able to leave a message in your Voice Mail.

Similarly, if your Brother machine is set to answer after 4 rings and your Voice Mail is set to answer after 2 rings, then your Voice Mail will answer first. This will prevent your Brother machine from being able to receive an incoming fax, since Voice Mail cannot transfer the incoming fax back to the Brother machine.

To avoid conflicts between your Brother machine and your voice mail service, do one of the following:

Get the Distinctive Ring service from your telephone company. Distinctive Ring is a feature of your Brother machine that allows a person with one line to receive fax and voice calls through two different phone numbers on that one line. Brother uses the term ‘Distinctive Ring,’ but telephone companies market the service under a variety of names, such as Custom Ringing, Personalized Ring, Smart Ring, RingMaster, Ident-A-Ring, IdentA-Call, Data Ident-A-Call, Teen Ring, and SimpleBiz Fax & Alternate Number Ringing. This service establishes a second telephone number on the same line as your existing telephone number, and each number has its own ring pattern. Typically, the original number rings with the standard ring pattern and is used for receiving voice calls, and the second number rings with a different ring pattern and is used for receiving faxes. (See Distinctive Ring on page 45.)

Set your Brother machine’s Receive Mode to “Manual.” Manual Mode requires that you answer every incoming call if you want to be able to receive a fax. If the incoming call is a telephone call, then complete the call as you normally would. If you hear fax sending tones you must transfer the call to the Brother machine by pressing l 51 on the dial pad of the telephone. Unanswered fax and voice calls will go to your Voice Mail. (To set the machine in MANUAL Mode, see Choosing the Receive Mode on page 38.)

Telephone Services and External devices

Distinctive Ring 7

Brother uses the term ‘Distinctive Ring’ but different telephone companies have other names for this service such as Smart Ring, RingMaster, Teen Ring, Custom Ringing, Personalized Ring, Data Ident-A-Call, IdentA-Call, Ident-A-Ring or SimpleBiz Fax & Alternate Number Ringing.

What does your telephone company's ‘Distinctive Ring’ do? 7

Your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service allows you to have more than one number on the same telephone line. If you

need more than one telephone number, it is cheaper than paying for an extra line.

Each telephone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which telephone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate telephone number for your machine.

Note

Please call your telephone company for availability and rates.

What does Brother's ‘Distinctive Ring’ do? 7

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. The new telephone number on your line can just receive faxes.

Note

You must pay for your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service before you program the machine to work with it.

Do you have Voice Mail? 7

If you have Voice Mail on the telephone line that you will install your new machine on,

there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the

Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the machine can work together without any problems. If each one

has a separate telephone number, neither will interfere with the other's operations.

If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring service from the telephone company, you will need to follow the directions on next page to ‘register’ the new Distinctive Ring pattern they give you. This is so your machine can recognize its incoming calls.

Note

You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can switch it off temporarily, and turn it back on later. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this feature.

Before you choose the ring pattern to register 7

You can only register one Distinctive Ring pattern with the machine. Some ring patterns cannot be registered. The ring patterns below are supported by your Brother machine. Register the one your telephone company gives you.

Ring Pattern

1 long-long

2 short-long-short

3 short-short-long 4 very long (normal

Rings

pattern)

Chapter 7

Note

Ring Pattern #1 is often called short-short and is the most commonly used. If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, please call your telephone

company and ask for one that is shown.

 The machine will only answer calls to its

registered number.

 The first two rings are silent on the

machine. This is because the fax must ‘listen’ to the ring pattern (to compare it to the pattern that was ‘registered’). (Other telephones on the same line will ring.)

 If you program the machine properly, it will

recognize the registered ring pattern of the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and then answer with a fax tone. When the ‘voice number’ is called, the machine will not answer.

Registering the Distinctive Ring pattern

After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature to on, the receive mode is set to Manual automatically. You cannot change the receive mode to another mode while the Distinctive Ring is set to on.

Caller ID 7

The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local telephone companies. Call your telephone company for details. This service shows the telephone number, or name if it is available, of your caller as the line rings.

After a few rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (and name, if available). Once you answer a call, the Caller ID information disappears from the LCD, but the call information stays stored in the Caller ID memory.

 You can see the first 15 characters of the

number (or name).

 The Unavailable message means the

call originated outside your Caller ID service area.

 The PrivateCall message means the

caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information.

You can print a list of the Caller ID information received by your machine. (See Printing the Caller ID List on page 48.)

Note

• This feature may not be available in certain areas of the USA and Canada.

• The Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local telephone company to find out about the kind of service available in your area.

Setting up your area code (USA only) 7

When returning calls from the caller ID history your machine will automatically dial "1" plus the area code for all calls. If your local dialing plan requires that the “1” not be used for calls within your area code enter your area code in this setting. With the area code setting, calls returned from the caller ID history to your area code will be dialed using 10 digits (area code + 7-digit number). If your dialing plan does not follow the standard 1 + area code + 7-digit number dialing system for calling outside your area code, you may experience problems returning calls automatically from the caller ID history. If this is not the procedure followed by your dialing plan, you will not be able to return calls automatically.

Telephone Services and External devices

Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device)

You may choose to connect an external answering device. However, when you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls and the machine ‘listens’ for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it does not 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 to 10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax ‘handshake’. Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this guide for recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds five rings.

Note

• If you do not receive all your faxes, shorten the Ring Delay setting on your

external TAD.

• 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, and use that number as a fax number. The recommended setting is at least four rings on the external TAD when you have the telephone company's Distinctive Ring Service. You cannot use the Toll Saver setting.

• If You Do Not Subscribe to Distinctive Ring Service:

You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the telephone line. (See the illustration below.)

1TAD

When the TAD answers a call, the LCD shows Telephone.

Chapter 7

Connections 7

The external TAD must be plugged into the jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring).

a Plug the telephone line cord from the

telephone wall jack into the jack labeled LINE.

b Plug the telephone line cord from the

external TAD into the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD's telephone line jack, and not its handset jack.)

c Set your external TAD to four rings or

less. (The machine's Ring Delay setting does not apply.)

d Record the outgoing message on your

external TAD.

e Set the TAD to answer calls. f Set the Receive Mode to

External TAD. (See Choosing the Receive Mode on page 38.)

Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD 7

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

c 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 l 51 and Start.’

Note

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 re-record the OGM to include it.

Special line considerations 7

Roll over telephone lines 7

A roll over telephone 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 telephone 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 will be sent to a line that does not have a fax machine.

machine will work best on a dedicated line.

Two-line telephone system 7

Your

a 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.)

b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

A two-line telephone system is nothing more than two separate telephone numbers on the same wall outlet. The two telephone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or mixed 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 telephone and see if it can access both lines. If it can, you must separate the line for your machine. (See page 41.)

Telephone Services and External devices

Converting telephone wall outlets 7

There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 jack. The first two ways may require help 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 telephone 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 triple adapter.

Triplex Adapter

a Put the two-line TAD and the two-line

telephone next to your machine.

b Plug one end of the telephone line cord

for your machine into the L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the back of the machine.

c 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.

d 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.

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 explained 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 twoline TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.

1 Triplex Adapter

2 Two Line Telephone

3 External Two Line TAD

4 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.

Chapter 7

Multi-line connections (PBX) 7

We suggest you ask the company who installed your PBX to connect your machine. If you have a multi line system we suggest you ask the installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the machine being activated each time the system receives telephone calls. If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator we recommend that you set the Receive Mode to Manual.

We cannot guarantee that your machine will operate properly under all circumstances when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties with sending or receiving faxes should be reported first to the company who handles your PBX.

External and extension telephones

Connecting an external or extension telephone 7

You can connect a separate telephone or telephone answering device directly to your machine as shown in the diagram below.

Connect the telephone line cord to the jack labeled EXT.

1 Extension telephone

2 External telephone

When you are using an external or extension telephone, the LCD shows Telephone.

Using external and extension telephones 7

If you answer a fax call on an extension or an external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make your machine take the call by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code l 51, the machine starts to receive the fax.

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension telephone. (See F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 40.)

Telephone Services and External devices

If you answer a call and no one is on the line:

You should assume that you're receiving a manual fax.

Press l 51 and wait for the chirp or until the LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.

Note

You can also use the Easy Receive feature to make your machine automatically take the call. (See Easy Receive on page 41.)

Using a Non-Brother cordless external telephone 7

If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the machine and you typically carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.

If you let the machine answer first, you will have to go to the machine so you can press

Hook to send the call to the cordless handset.

Fax Receive code 7

If you answer a fax call on an extension or external telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by dialing the Fax Receive Code l 5 1. Wait for the chirping sounds then replace the handset. See Easy Receive on page 41. Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.

Telephone Answer code 7

If you receive a voice call and the machine is in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T (double) ring after the initial ring delay. If you pick up the call on an extension telephone you can turn the F/T ring off by pressing # 5 1 (make sure you press this between the rings).

Note

• If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely, try changing the Fax Receive Code and Telephone Answer Code to another threedigit code (such as ### and 999).

• Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems.
