2. HOW TO USE ON-SCREEN PROGRAMMING (OSP) AND HELP KEY
User-friendly Programming
We have designed your MFC with on-screen programming and a Help key, userfriendly programming that helps you take full advantage of all the functions your
MFC has to offer.
Since your MFC programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen
prompt messages to help you program your machine. All you have to do is follow the
prompt instructions as they guide you through the function menu selections and
programming options and settings.
___________________
Using the Function Mode to Access On-screen Programming (OSP)
You can access the Function mode by pressing Fimction and waitin g for two aecon ds.
Then select FAX or PRINTER by pressing 1 or 2. (See page 8.)
Press Function
ENTER NO. & SET

When you enter Function mode, your MFC will display a list of Level One Functions
to choose from (see pages 10 through 15 for these Level One Functions), as seen on
previous page.
These function options will appear one after the other on the display. You can then
choose one of these options by pressing Set when the option you want appears on the
LCD.
You can also move through the function menu options at a faster rate by pressing
(right arrow). (See page 5 to locate this key on your Control Panel.) When you find the
option you want, press Set.
After you select either FAX MENU or PRINTER MENU, you can simply press the
Level One Function number, then press the Level Two Function number associated
with each option (refer to pages 10 through 15).
To exit function mode, press Stop, If you selected the wrong menu and want to return
to the previous step, press Clear.
Shortcut
The functions in this manual list each step in detail, showing the LCD display
prompts after you press each key: Function, 1 (FAX)—OR—2 (PRINTER), Level
One number, and Level Two number. Then you are in the function where you must
either use the ^(left arrow) or ►(right arrow) to select an option or enter the
information using the dial pad.
To bypass the LCD displays and go directly into a function without waiting, do not
pause between the above four key strokes. For example, the shortcut to access the
DATEATIME function is; Press Function, 1, 7,1.
Once you are comfortable with skipping these LCD displays, you can program most
functions directly from the Function Selection Table (see pages 10-15).

FOR YOUR INFORMATION
On Hook Dialing
When you make a call using Hook, you can listen to the other end through
the one-way speaker of the MFC, but the other party cannot hear you
unless you pick up the handset. Also, if you press Hook again before you
pick up the handset, the call will be disconnected.
Dialing Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers______________
_____
You can store very long dialing sequences by dividing them and setting them up as One
Touch and Speed Dial numbers. Then while dialing, you can combine two or more One
Touch and/or Speed Dial numbers and even include manual dialing using the dial pad.
You can use these numbers in any combination. The combined number will be dialed,
in the order you entered it, as soon as you press Start.
For example;
You store “555” on One Touch key 01 and “7000” on One Touch key 02. If you press
One Touch 01, 02 and Start, you can dial “555-7000”. To temporarily change a
number, you can substitute part of the number with manual dialing using the dial
pad. So, if you press One Touch 01 and press “7001” using the dial pad, you can dial
“555-7001”.
Using access codes is easy. Sometimes you may want to choose from the among
several long distance carriers when you make a call; rates may vary depending upon
the time and destination. To take advantage of low rates, you can store the access
codes or long-distance carriers as One Touch and Speed Dial numbers.
NOTE: You can set up phone credit card numbers the same way. However, when
using combined dialing, do NOT send a cover page because your
credit card number will be on it!

5. SENDING FAXES
A) DOCUMENT BASICS
The Size of Your Documents
The size of the documents you want to send by fax should not be larger (or smaller)
than your MFC can accommodate. The documents should each be between 5.8 and 8.5
inches (148 and 216 mm) wide and between 3.9 and 35.4 inches (100 and 900 mm)
long.
The maximum width of the scanned area, that can be printed on the recording paper
of the recipient’s fax, is 8.2 inches (208 mm).
How to Insert the Document
To send a fax, first insert the document you wish to send, face down,
in the document feeder. The top edge of the document should go in
first, or the fax will be received upside down.
To prevent the document from skewing as it is fed, adjust the paper
guides to fit the width of the document.
M I
dOl
The Auto Document Feeder (ADF)
The Auto Document Feeder (ADF) automatically feeds documents (up to 30 pages)
into the MFC, one at a time. The thickness and weight of the documents should fall into
the following categories:
Thickness; For one sheet: 2.8 x 10'® to 4.7 x 10'^ inches (0.07 to 0.12 mm).
For multiple sheets: 2.8 X 10 Ho 3.9 X 10'^ inches (0.07 to 0.10 mm).
Weight: For one shoot: 0.07 x 10‘3 to 0.121 x 10'^ Ibs/inch^ (52 to 85 g/m^).
For multiple sheets: 0.07 x 10'^ to 0.114 x 10’^ Ibs/inch^ (52 to 80 g/m^).
Before inserting documents into the document feeder, fan the sheets of paper to make
sure the documents are not stuck together. Then tap the leading edge on a flat surface
so all the pages are even when placed in the feeder. Make sure you always place the
documents in face down.

printed on the receiving party’s fax paper. It contains the date and time of
transmission, your fax number and name (Station ID), and page number.

Broadcasting
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers.
Using the Broadcast key, you can include up to 24 One Touch locations, up to 100
Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialed numbers (maximum of 174
locations if you did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit card
numbers). However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs in memory and
number of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the
maximum locations available, you will not be able to set up transmissions using dual
access and the timer.
The easiest way to broadcast is to first combine fi'equently used One Touch and Speed
Dial numbers as a Group, which uses up a One Touch key. (Remember, you can have
Up to six Groups and autodial numbers can be included in more than one Group.) Then
by pressing Broadcast between each location, you can include One Touch, Speed
Dial, Groups, and manual dialing (using the dial pad) in the same broadcast. Use the
Telephone Index to help you choose the numbers easily.
Alter the Broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically
to let you know the results.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Getting Familiar with the Broadcasting Function
* To stop the broadcast in progress, press Stop. The LCD display asks if you
want to cancel all locations or the location that is being sent.
* Enter the long dialing sequence numbers as you normally would, but
keep in mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of
locations you can call becomes limited.
* If the line is busy or for some other reason a connection could not be made
while broadcasting, the MFC will redial the number aiitnmaticfllly. (See
page 43.)
* If the memory is full, press Stop to abort the job or press Start to send
the portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has been
scanned.) (See page 41.)

resolution, all the pages will be sent at the same resolution. However, there may be
times when you want to send some pages at one resolution, such as STANDARD, and
other pages in another resolution, such as PHOTO. If you send all pages in Photo
resolution, for instance, it would take a great deal of time. It is better to specify the
resolution for each page to minimize transmission time. This is made possible by using

ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the MFC 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 MFC for this feature to work.
Error Retransmission
Error Retransmission is helpful when the receiving machine does not have ECM,
Even though your MFC cannot check the integrity of the message, it will send the
affected page(s) again after occurrences of accidental noise have caused an error.
This feature is available only for memory transmission, including Broadcast
(see pages 46-47).

The FIT Switch (FaxITelephone Mode)
When you share one line for your telephone and fax application, in the F/T switch
mode, the MFC can determine whether an incoming call is a fax or a telephone call.
(See Chart below.)
NOTE: The caller may hang up, but the F/T ringing will continue for 10-60 seconds.

Recording an FIT Outgoing Message (OGM)
Even though F/T mode does not allow callers to leave a voice message, you can store
an outgoing message in your MFC so callers know what to do. For example;
“Hi, I can’t answer your call right now, so please call me again later. If you want to
send a fax, please wait until you hear a fax tone and then press the Start key, or press
(*51) and press the Start key.”
NOTE; The caller cannot leave an incoming message in this mode.

in the cassette, you must also change this setting to get the correct
reduction. Your MFC can be set to receive incoming fax documents on only
letter, legal or A4 paper.
Printing a Reduced Size Copy of the Incoming Document
________________
You can avoid separating data even if the document is longer than the paper by using
this function to print a reduction of the document. There are two types of reduction;
Auto Reduction and Fixed Reduction.
Auto Reduction
Regardless of the original size of the incoming document, it will be reduced so that it
fits on one page of paper in your cassette. The MFC will automatically calculate the
reduction ratio by taking into account the size of the incoming document and the size
of the paper you selected in Function, 1, 5, 6. (See page 68.)
Using Fixed Reduction Ratios
You can choose to have incoming documents reduced at a fixed reduction ratio,
regardless of the size of the paper. The reduction ratio can be selected fi'om among four
choices; 100%, 93%, 87%, or 75%.

a second page.
When you use Auto Reduction and you receive an incoming document that
is smaller than your paper, no reduction will take place.
When selecting Fixed Reduction, you must consider the size of the paper
as registered in Function, 1,5, 6. (See page 68.) If you selected letter

B) REMOTE ACTIVATION
What is Remote Activation'^
If you answer a call that is a fax message, you can use the Remote Activation Code
(*51) to make your MFC take over the call. If your MFC answers a telephone call that
is for you, you can use the Remote Deactivation Code (#51) to pick up the call at an
extension phone. (You do not need a code to take over a call at the MFC.) You must
use a touch tone phone.
FOR YOUR INFORMATION
Connecting an External or Extension Telephone
You may connect an external telephone to your MFC, as shown below. Use
the EXT. jack on your MFC.
Alternatively, you may wish to use this EXT. jack to connect a telephone
answering device (TAD). An extension phone is a telephone that is plugged
into a separate wall jack on the same line.
Extension
Telephone
If the external telephone is in use, the warning message EXT. TEL IN USE
will be displayed on the fax LCD. When the handset on the MFC is picked
up, an alarm will sound. You can disconnect the external phone and switch
to the MFC’s handset by pressing Hook,
7.i
Using Remote Codes
The Remote Activation Code (=H<51) is used in F/T, and MSG CTR modes. The
Deactivation Code (#51) is used only in F/T mode and MSG CTR mode.
Using the Activation Code
When you are at the MFC, you will probably answer incoming calls before your MFC
(or external TAD) is programmed to pick up. If you answer a call and no one seems
to be on the line, assume it is a fax message. Do not hang up. You must activate
your MFC to take over the call first. (If you are holding the MFC’s handset, just press
the Start key and hang up.) If you are on an extension/external phone,
press *51 and
wait for your MFC to respond before you hang up. After 3 seconds you will hear
receiving tones (chirps) through the handset of extension phone. Then hang up. You
can repeat the code as many times as needed. Your MFC will take over the call and
print the fax message. If your caller wants to talk before sending the fax, you can have
a conversation first and then activate your MFC with the code.
Tbe Remntfi Act.iv^itin'n Code can al so be u sed by your callers Wbeu you areusiogynur
Message Center, your outgoing message (OGM) should end with the statement “to
send a fax, press *51”. (See Chapter 8 “Message Center Mode Settings” for more
information.)
Using the Deactivation Code
When your MFC is in F/T mode, sometimes it will answer a call that is not fax calling
tones (a telephone call or manual fax). It will respond with a double ring (short,
short) to alert you to take over. Because it has already answered the call, only the MFC
will ring, extension phones are no longer connected to the call. Pick up any phone on
the line, except an external phone connected to the MFC.
To take over the call at the MFC;
Pick up the handset of the MFC and talk to the caller as usual. If no one is there or
someone is trying to send you a manual fax, press the Start key and replace the
handset. Your MFC will display RECEIVING and print the incoming fax message.
To take over the call at an extension phone:
Pick up the handset on another telephone and press #51 quickly during the
silence between the double ring pattern. When the MFC hears the code it will
stop ringing and let you speak with the caller. If no one is on the line or someone is
trying to send you a manual fax, send the call back to the MFC (*51).
76
ivii>io r/AAco MiNU ulhtK UALLS
Making the Remote Codes Easier to Use
You can change the codes at any time. It may be easier for you and your callers to press the
same key three times (Example: *** and ###). Although you can change the codes to any
numbers you want, tiy to avoid using digits for the Activation Code. The Remote Activation
Code must not match any number you dial. Eyou try to dial a phone number that includes
the Activation Code, your MFC will go into receiving mode.
If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax message is being received,
you may disrupt the transmission or render some portions unreadable.

C) CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL TELEPHONE ANSWERING
device (TAD)
How to Use an External TAD with the MFC
When you have an external Telephone Answering Device on the fax phone line, the
TAD will answer all the incoming calls. Your Brother MFC will listen in on the line
for fax CNG tones. If it hears them, it will take over the call and receive the fax
message. If it does not hear fax tones, it will let the TAD continue playing the outgoing
message so the caller can leave a voice message.
The TAD must answer within 4 rings. The MFC cannot hear the CNG calling tones
until the TAD answers the call. When the Ring Delay is set for 4 rings, only 8-10
seconds of CNG calling tones are left for the “handshake”. So you must strictly follow
the instructions for recording the OGM.
You must erase the incoming messages frequently on your TAD. When the TAD’s
memory is full it will not answer any incoming calls (fax or voice).
Put your MFC in Message Center mode and set Message Storage to VOICE: EXT
mode. (See page 99.)

External TAD Hookup
There is only one way you can hook up an external Telephone Answering Device
(T AD) on the fax phone line. The TAD must be plugged into the back of the MFC in
the jack labeled EXT. Your MFC cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall
jack. Follow these steps:
1. Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the back of the MFC in the jack
labeled LINE.
2. Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the back of the MFC in the jack
labeled EXT. (Double check that the telephone line cord comes from the jack in the
TAD for telephone line and not for telephone set.)
3. Put your MFC in Message Center mode by turning both the Fax and F/T lights on
and set Message Storage to VOICE: EXT mode.
4. Set your TAD to 4 rings or less. (The MFC’s Ring Delay setting does not apply).
5. Turn the tad’s Answer mode to ON.

Recording the TAD*s Outgoing Message (OGM)
_________
The tad's outgoing message is important because it must be set up to handle two
kinds of fax receptions; automatic and manual. Timing is important.
1. Record 5 seconds of silence as the beginning of your message. (Your MFC will be
able to hear the fax calling tones, of automatic fax transmissions, before they stop.)
2. Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
3. End your 20 second message by giving your Remote Activation Code for people
sending manual faxes:
“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing *51.”
NOTE: Do not assume that most callers send faxes automatically. Many people do
not realize they are not sending fax tones when they lift the handset or press
the Hook key. Also, some machines may not send fax tones.
Sometimes other equipment on your phone line reserves a key that is in the
Activation or Deactivation code. (Some answering machines reserve the key.) If
the code you use to retrieve messages from your answering machine causes the line
to be disconnected, try changing the Remote Codes. Change *51 to ### and #51 to 999.
The Remote Activation and Deactivation Codes may not work with some telephone
systems or telephone sets.
D) DISTINCTIVE RINGING
Distinctive Ringing
What Is Distinctive Ringing?
Distinctive ringing is a service offered by the telephone carriers that allows you to have
several different numbers on one phone line, so you can have a separate number for your
MFC. Each number has its own distinctive ringing pattern. This way, when you get an
incoming call, you can identify the number being called by its ring. Your local telephone
company can provide more information about this service. The service is usually offered
as a monthly charge to your normal telephone bill.
What Is the Advantage of Using the Distinctive Ringing Function?
Using Distinctive Ringing is the most efficient way to receive both fax and telephone calls
on the same line. It is much easier for yom: callers who dial manually. The MFC will
answer with receiving tones so they will not have to press an activation code or wait 30
seconds to hear fax tones (F/T mode). And the people who call to talk on your main
number, will not have to talk to your MFC. Basically, it gives you two independent
numbers without the higher cost of a second line.
81
Can My MFC Use Distinctive Ringing?
Yes, it has a distinctive ringing function that allows you to register the distinctive
ringing pattern of an additional phone number on the line. The number you register
must be the number you want to use as your dedicated fax number. Once you register
the ringing pattern, the MFC will be able to identify its own incoming calls and
automatically receive faxes at that number. You can register only one ringing pattern.
There are some ringing patterns that cannot be registered.
Can I Change the Setting Later?
Yes, you can change or cancel the distinctive ringing setting at any time. You can
switch it OFF temporarily and then turn it back ON. When you move or get a new fax
number, change the distinctive ringing mode to SET so you can register the new
number.
How Will the MFC Treat All Other Numbers?
If you have registered the distinctive ringing number, the MFC will answer the
registered number (with fax receiving tones) and receive faxes automatically. When
a call comes in to your main number or to additional distinctive ringing numbers, all
the phones will ring. You can set the MFC’s Message Center or an external answering
device (TAD) to answer calls on the other number(s). (See the chart on page 84.)
If you change the answer mode on the MFC to Fax or F/T, that setting will override
the Distinctive Ringing setup. In Fax or F/T modes, your MFC will answer allthe
phone numbers (including its own ring pattern).
The Message Center Answers the Other Phone Number(s) on the Line:
If you change the answer mode on the MFC to MSG CTR (Message Center), it will
allow the Distinctive Ringing function to work. The Message Center will answer only the
main number or additional distinctive ringing numbers according to the way you have
set Message Storage. (See page Message Center Mode Settings for details.)
NOTE: If you set the Message Storage to FAX: ONA^OICE: OFF, the Message
Center will be set to answer the main number with fax receiving tones.
To have your Message Center’s OGM answer your main number(s):
1. Register the distinctive ringing number. (See “Setting the Distinctive Ringing
Function” on pages 85-87.)
2. Set the Message Center’s Message Storage to either VOICE: ON/FAX: OFF or
VOICE: ON/FAX: ON mode. (See pages 103-104.)
3. Keep the Message Center on (both Fax and F/T lights lit).
4. Turn Toll Saver OFF (see page 113) and set the Ring Delay to 4 rings (see pages
63-64).
82
V ti 1 rvAco Mi\iJ vjimtK L^ALLb
External Telephone Answering Device (TAD) Answers Other Number(s) on
the Line:
An external telephone answering device (TAD) can be set up to work with the
Distinctive Ringing function. The external TAD must be set to its maximum number
of rings (at least 4 ring patterns). Otherwise, it will answer the registered fax number
before the MFC has time to recognize the ringing pattern. The external TAD’s OGM
(outgoing message) will answer your main number(s) if you do either #1 or #2 as
follows:
1. Plug the external TAD into the EXT. jack of the MFC (you will not hear the first
two rings on the MFC). Put your MFC in Manual mode (Fax and F/T lights ofi). Set
the Message Center’s Message Storage to either FAX: OFFATOICE: EXT or FAX;
ONA^OICE: EXT. Turn the MSG CTR on (Fax and F/T lights lit) or set the MFC
to Manual Mode.
2. Plug the external TAD into another phone jack and put the MFC in Manual mode
(Fax and F/T lights turned off).
Retrieving Faxes from a Remote Site When Using Distinctive Ringing:
When you use the Distinctive Ringing feature, faxes are printed on paper. If you want
to be able to retrieve faxes from another location, you must set up the Message Center
for FAX: ON. This allows fax messages to be stored in the Message Center’s memory,
BO they can be retrieved. However, because the Message Center only answers the main
number(s), you must make sure the faxing party sends faxes, that must be retrieved,
to the main number.
How Does the Distinctive Ringing Function Work?
Your telephone number will have the standard ring pattern of long long, while the
new number could have a ring pattern of short short, long short, etc. When Distinctive
Ringing is ON, you will not hear the first two rings of all incoming calls on the MFC.
Extension phones will ring as usual. If the MFC recognizes the ring pattern, all
ringing will stop and the MFC will answer and automatically receive the fax message.
Otherwise, yoii will hear the extension phones and the MFC continue to ring. The
MFC always listens to at least two ring patterns before it answers, so do not pick up
the phone during that time. You will quickly learn to recognize the ring pattern for
faxes, so you will not be tempted to answer that number. Either you, your Message

Which Phone Number Should I Register?
It is a good idea to keep your old number for its original purpose and to register the
new number as your fax number. Remember to give the new fax number to your
customers and colleagues.
What Must I Do to Set Up Distinctive Ringing?
To use the Distinctive Ringing feature you must:
1. Get the distinctive ringing service from your telephone carrier.
2. When your distinctive ringing number is available, register it in the function called
“Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function”.
3. Keep the MFC in Manual answer mode (both Fax and F/T lights turned off) if you
want to answer the main number yourself. Keep the MFC in MSG CTR answer
mode (both Fax and F/T lights lit) if you want the Message Center to answer the
main number(s).
Setting the Distinctive Ringing Function__________________________
This function is a one-time procedure to register a distinctive ringing number with
your MFC. Your MFC will answer the registered number automatically, simulating
Fax mode on a dedicated fax line. You can register only one number. Do not try to
set up this function if you do not have the distinctive ringing service. It may
cause yonr MFC to malfunction.
This procedure is in two parts: First, you must put the MFC in SET mode; D/R SET
MODE will be on the display screen. Second, you must wait for a friend to call the
distinctive ringing number so you can register the ringing pattern. When a call comes
in, do not pick up the handset until the MFC’s display says PICK UP TO SET. Then pick
up the handset. If the caller dialed your distinctive ringing number, press the Start key
and check that the display says REGISTERED before you hang up. If the caller dialed
the other number, press the Stop key and hang up to try ^ain.
Before you begin this function:
1. If your MFC is connected to a telephone answering device or to the telephone
company’s Voice Mail system, disconnect it before you begin this function,
2. Have a friend ready to call your distinctive ringing number.

E) CALLER ID
Whaf is Caller IDl
______________________________
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows the subscriber to see a display of the
caller’s phone number (or name in certain states) as the telephone rings. It is a fast
way to screen your calls. You can respond quickly to calls you missed, because Caller
IDs are received and stored in your MFC’s memory.
NOTICE
To get the Caller ID Service; apply for the Caller ID service at your local
telephone company.
The type of service varies from state to state and is determined by your
telephone company. Your particular service may display only the caller’s
phone number or the caller’s number and/or name.
Advantages of Caller ID
For Business
All businesses profit from a quicker response to customer calls. Businesses that provide
mail order services, money-lending services or provide confidential information,
can protect themselves from false orders or acceptance of false identification.
At Home
Residential customers can protect themselves from unwanted calls.

How Does Caller ID Work'?
The Caller ID Appears on the Display When Your Telephone Rings
As your telephone rings, the Display shows you the caller’s phone number (or caller’s
name in certain states). You will know who is calling before you pick up the handset
or before your MFC automatically receives the call. Once you pick up the handset, the
caller’s ID disappeais. If both the caller’s phone number and name are received, only
the name will appear on the Display. You will see the first 16 characters of the number
or name.
Helpful Hints • If OUT OF AREA appears on the Display, it means that the call
came from outside your caller ID service area.
• If PRIVATE CALL appears on the Display, it means the caller
intentionally blocked the transmission of his/her ID.
• If no caller ID was transmitted to your MFC, CALL PICKUP will
remain on the display.
NOTE: Please set the number of rings to mure than 02 to use Caller ID. If you set the
number of rings to 01, you cannot receive the Caller ID.
The Caller ID is Stored in Your Machinées Memory
The MFC can store a maximum of the last 30 incoming caller ID s in the memory, along
with the time and date of reception. The 31st call will cause the oldest ID to be erased.
The Caller ID information stored in the memory can be scrolled through on the
display.
And you can also print the Caller ID list and review calls you received by checking the
Caller IDs in memory. This report will list the Date, Time, Phone Number (Caller ID),
Name (in certain states), and type of call (Comment). (See pages
90-91.)
Scanning through the Caller IDs Stored in the Memory
You can display the caller IDs that are stored in the memory as follows. (You can skip
to Step 6 below by pressing the Shift and Tel-index keys simultaneously.)
