95 g/m
Some envelopes need margin settings to
be set in the application. Make sure you
do a test print first before printing many
envelopes.
DO NOT use any of the following types of
envelopes, as they will cause paper feed

• That are of a baggy construction.
• That are embossed (have raised writing
on them).
• That have clasps or staples.
.
CAUTION
How to load envelopes and postcards2
a Before loading, press the corners and

Note
If envelopes or postcards are ‘doublefeeding’, put one envelope or postcard in

Loading paper and documents
Acceptable paper and
other print media
The print quality can be affected by the type
of paper you use 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 correct print media
in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in
the Paper Type setting of the menu. (See
Paper Type on page 22.)
Recommended print media2
2
To get the best print quality, we suggest using
Brother paper. (See table below.)
If Brother paper is not available in your
country, we recommend testing various
papers before purchasing large quantities.
We recommend using ‘3M Transparency
Film’ when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print
media2
When you print on Brother Photo paper,
load one extra sheet of the same photo
paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has
been included in the paper package for
this purpose.
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.
Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and
away from moisture, direct sunlight and
heat.
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of
photo paper. 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.
You can only print on both sides of the
paper with PC printing. (See Printing for
Windows
on the CD-ROM.)

If you turn on the PC-Fax Receive feature
your machine will store received faxes in
memory and send them to your PC
automatically. You can then use your PC to
view and store these faxes.
Even if you have turned off your PC (at night
or on the weekend, for example), your
machine will receive and store your faxes in
its memory. The number of received faxes
that are stored in the memory will appear at
the bottom left side of the LCD.
When you start your PC and the PC-FAX
Receiving software runs, your machine
transfers your faxes to your PC automatically.
To transfer the received faxes to your PC you
must have the PC-FAX Receiving software
running on your PC. (For details, see PC-FAX receiving in the Software User’s Guide on the
CD-ROM.)

Telephone services7
Your machine supports the Caller ID
subscriber telephone service that some
telephone companies offer.
Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call
Waiting/Caller ID, answering services, alarm
systems or other custom features on one
telephone line may create problems with the
operation of your machine.
Note
Caller ID is available for U.K. and Ireland
only.
Caller ID

company for details. This service shows the
telephone number, or name if it is available,
of your caller as the line rings.
Note
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.

PBX and TRANSFER7
The machine is initially set to Normal, which
lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN
(Public Switched Telephone Network) line.
However, many offices use a central
telephone system or Private Branch
Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be
connected to most types of PBX. The
machine's recall feature supports timed break
recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most
PBX systems allowing you to gain access to
an outside line, or transfer calls to another
extension. The feature works when Tel/R is
pressed.
Note
You can program a Tel/R key press as
part of a number stored in a Speed Dial
location. When programming the
Speed Dial number, press Tel/R first (the
LCD shows ‘!’), then enter the telephone
number. If you do this, you do not need to
press Tel/R each time before you dial
using a Speed Dial location. (See Storing numbers on page 58.) However, if PBX is
not chosen in the Telephone Line Type
setting, you cannot use the Speed Dial
number that the Tel/R press is
programmed into.
BT Call Sign (U.K. only)7
This machine feature lets you use the BT Call
Sign subscriber service which allows you to
have at least two separate telephone
numbers on one telephone line. Each
telephone number has its own distinctive
ringing pattern, so you know which telephone
number is ringing. This is one way you can
have a separate telephone number for your
machine.
Your machine has a BT Call Sign compatible
distinctive ringing function, allowing you to
dedicate a second telephone number (on the
same telephone line) just for receiving faxes.
Note
• You can switch BT Call Sign off
temporarily, then turn it back on. When
you get a new fax number, make sure you
reset this function. This machine will
automatically answer incoming calls that
use your new fax number.
• When you set the BT Call Sign feature to
ON, the receive mode is set to Manual
automatically. Manual mode will not
respond to incoming telephone calls,
since the number you use for telephone
calls will use the normal ring pattern.

Connecting an external
7
TAD (telephone
answering device)
You may choose to connect an external
answering device. However, when you have
an
external
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.

Timing is important in recording this

reception.
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.
Note
Make sure the Telephone Line Type is set
to PBX. (See Setting the Telephone Line Type on page 49.)
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.
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.

Chapter 7
Using extension telephones
(U.K. only)7
Your premises may already be wired with
parallel extension telephones, or you may
plan to add extension telephones to your line,
as well as your machine. While the simplest
arrangement is a straightforward parallel
connection, there are some problems with
this arrangement, the most obvious of which
is inadvertent interruption of a facsimile
transmission caused by someone picking up
an extension telephone to make an outgoing
call. Also, remote activation code may not
operate reliably in such a simple
configuration.
This machine may also be set to make a
delayed transmission (i.e. a transmission at a
pre-set time). This pre-set job may coincide
with someone picking up an extension
handset.
These problems can easily be eliminated, if
you arrange modification of your extension
wiring circuit, such that extension devices are
connected ‘downstream’ of your machine in a
master/slave configuration (see fig. 2). In this
configuration the machine can always detect
whether a telephone is in use. Thus it will not
attempt to seize the line during that time. This
is known as ‘telephone off-hook detection.’
The inadvisable configuration is shown in
figure 1, and the recommended master/slave
configuration is shown in figure 2.
This new connection configuration can be
arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon
Hull Telecommunications, your PBX
maintainer or a qualified telephone
installation company as appropriate. Simply
explained, the extension telephone circuit
should be terminated on a normal modular
plug (BT 431A style), which in turn should be
put into the modular socket of the white ‘T’shaped connector provided as part of the line
cord assembly.

Using a cordless external
telephone7
If your cordless telephone is connected to the
telephone line cord (See External and extension telephones on page 53) 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
Tel/R to send the call to the cordless handset.
Using remote codes7
Remote Activation code7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or
external telephone, you can tell your machine
to receive it by dialling the Remote Activation
Code l 5 1. Wait for the chirping sounds then
replace the handset. (See Fax Detect
on page 40.) Your caller will have to press
Start to send the fax.
If you answer a fax call at the external
telephone, you can make the machine
receive the fax by pressing Mono Start.
Changing the remote codes7
If you want to use Remote Activation, you
have to turn on the remote codes. The preset
Remote Activation Code is l 51. The preset
Remote Deactivation Code is #51. If you
want to, you can replace them with your own
codes.

you can turn the F/T ring off by pressing # 5 1
(make sure you press this between the rings).
If the machine answers a voice call and
pseudo/double rings for you to take over, you
can take the call at the external telephone by
pressing Tel/R.

Combining Quick Dial
numbers8
Sometimes you may want to choose from
several long distance carriers when you
make a call. Rates may vary depending on
the time and destination. To take advantage
of low rates, you can store the access codes
of long-distance carriers and credit card
numbers as Speed Dial numbers. You can
store these long dialling sequences by
dividing them and setting them up as
separate Speed Dial numbers in any
combination. You can even include manual
dialling using the dial pad. (See Storing Speed Dial numbers on page 58.)
For example, you might have stored ‘555 ’ on
Speed Dial: 03 and ‘7000 ’ on Speed Dial: 02.
You can use them both to dial ‘555-7000’ if
you press the following keys:
g Press Mono Start or Colour Start.
You will dial ‘555-7000 ’.
To temporarily change a number, you can
substitute part of the number with manual
dialling using the dial pad. For example, to
change the number to 555-7001 you could
press (Speed Dial), choose Search,
press 03 and then press 7001 using the dial
pad.
Note
If you must wait for another dial tone or
signal at any point in the dialling
sequence, create a pause in the number
by pressing Redial/Pause. Each key
press adds a 3.5-second delay.

(memory card users)
Your machine is designed to read memory
cards that have been formatted by a digital

When a digital camera formats a memory
card it creates a special folder into which it
copies image data. If you need to modify
the image data stored on a memory card
with your PC, we recommend that you do
not modify the folder structure created by
the digital camera. When saving new or
modified image files to the memory card
we also recommend you use the same
folder your digital camera uses. If the data
is not saved to the same folder, the
machine may not be able to read the file or
print the image.
