Use envelopes that weigh from 80 to
2
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 problems:
• That are of a baggy construction.
• That are embossed (have raised writing on them).
• That have clasps or staples.
.
CAUTION
Note
Do not use the paper support flap for Legal paper.
• That are pre-printed on the inside.
Glue 2
Double flap 2
Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.

sides of envelopes or post cards to make them as flat as possible.
Note
If envelopes or post cards are ‘double-feeding’, put one envelope or post card in the paper tray at a time.
If you have problems when printing on envelopes, try the following suggestions:
a Make sure the flap is either to the side of
the envelope or to the back edge of the envelope when printing.
b Adjust the size and margin in your
application.

Loading paper and documents

Acceptable paper and other print 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 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 21.)
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.
Recommended print media 2
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 media 2
Store paper in its original packaging, and
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
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.
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.)

Using receive modes 6

Some receive modes answer automatically (Fax Only and Fax/Tel). You may want to change the ring delay before using these modes. (See Ring Delay on page 37.)
Fax only 6
Fax only mode will automatically answer every call. If the call is a fax your machine will receive it.
Fax/Tel 6
Fax/Tel mode helps you automatically manage incoming calls, by recognising whether they are fax or voice calls and dealing with them in one of the following ways:
External TAD 6
External TAD mode lets an external answering device manage your incoming calls. Incoming calls will be dealt with in one of the following ways:
Faxes will be automatically received.Voice callers can record a message on the
external TAD.
(For more information see Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device) on page 43.)
Faxes will be automatically received.Voice calls will start the F/T ring to tell you
to pick up the line. The F/T ring is a fast double ring made by your machine.
(Also see F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 37 and Ring Delay on page 37.)
Manual 6

When somebody calls your machine, you and your caller will hear the normal telephone ring sound. The number of rings is set by the ring delay setting.
If the call is a fax, then your machine will receive it; however, if it is a voice call the machine will sound the F/T ring (a fast double-ring) for the time you have set in the F/T ring time setting. If you hear the F/T ring it means that you have a voice caller on the line.
Because the F/T ring is made by the machine, extension and external telephones will not ring; however, you can still answer the call on any telephone. (For more information see Using remote codes on page 46.)

If you are using an external telephone and have a pulse dialling service, but need to send tone signals (for example, for telephone banking), follow the instructions below.
a Lift the handset of the external
telephone.
b Press # on the control panel of your
machine. Any digits dialled after this will send tone signals. When you hang up, the machine will return to the pulse dialling service.
Fax/Tel mode 7
Fax/Tel mode in Power Save condition 7
When the machine is in Power Save condition you can receive faxes if the Power Save setting is Fax Receive:On. (See Power Save setting on page 20.)
Fax/Tel mode does not work in power save condition. 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 Fax Detect activates your machine. If the other party says they want to send you a fax, activate the machine by pressing l 51.
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.
If you are at an external telephone, lift the handset of the external telephone, and then press Tel/R to answer.
If you are at an extension telephone, you'll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and then press #51 between the pseudo/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
l 51.

Setting the telephone Line Type 7
If you are connecting the machine to a line that features PBX or ISDN to send and receive faxes, it is necessary to change the Telephone Line Type accordingly by completing the following steps.
a Press Menu, 0, 6.
Initial Setup
6.Phone Line Set
b Press a or b to choose PBX, ISDN (or
Normal). Press OK.
c Press Stop/Exit.
PBX and TRANSFER 7
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 One Touch or Speed Dial location. When programming the One Touch or Speed Dial number press Tel/R first (the screen displays “!”), then enter the telephone number. If you do this, you do not need to press Tel/R each time before you dial using a One Touch or Speed Dial location. (See Storing Speed Dial numbers on page 50.) However, if PBX is not chosen in the Telephone Line Type setting, you cannot use the One Touch or Speed Dial number that Tel/R press is programmed into.
BT Call Sign (U.K. only)
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 functions, 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.

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.
7
7
Note
If you do not receive all your faxes, cut the Ring Delay setting on your external TAD.

Connections 7
The external TAD must be connected as shown in the previous illustration.
a Set your external TAD to one or two
rings. (The machine's Ring Delay setting does not apply.)
b Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
c Set the TAD to answer calls. d Set the Receive Mode to
External TAD. (See Choosing the correct Receive Mode on page 35.)
Recording an 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.
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 41.)
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.

Note
Please make sure you use an external telephone with a cable no more than 3 metres long.
Operation from extension telephones 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or an external telephone plugged into the correct socket on the machine, you can make your machine take the call by using the Remote Activation Code. When you press the Remote Activation 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 Remote Deactivation Code #51 to take the call at an extension telephone. (See F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 37.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line:
7
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.
7
Note
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to make your machine automatically take the call. (See Fax Detect on page 38.)
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.
7
45
Chapter 7
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 telephone 7
Once the base unit of the cordless telephone has been connected to the same telephone line as the machine (see External and extension telephones on page 45), it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay if you carry the cordless handset around with you.
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 codes 7
Remote Activation Code 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by dialling the Remote Activation Code l 51. Wait for the chirping sounds then replace the handset. (See Fax Detect on page 38.)
If you answer a fax call at the external telephone, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Mono Start and choosing 2.Receive.

The fax machine must be plugged into master socket.
Note
These telephones are now connected as external devices (see Connecting an external or extension telephone on page 45), because they are connected to the fax machine via the T-connector.

Remote Deactivation 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 #51 (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.
Changing the remote codes 7
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.

Fax reports 10

You need to set up the Transmission Verification Report and Journal Period using the Menu key.
Transmission Verification Report 10
You can use the Transmission Report as proof that you sent a fax. This report lists the time and date of transmission and whether the transmission was successful (OK). If you choose On or On+Image, the report will print for every fax you send.
If you send a lot of faxes to the same place, you may need more than the job numbers to know which faxes you must send again. Choosing On+Image or Off+Image will print a section of the fax's first page on the report to help you remember.
When the Verification Report is turned Off or Off+Image, the Report will only print if there is a transmission error, with ERROR in the RESULT column.
