Brother is addressing the Year 2000 related
issues for all Brother fax machines and
multi-function centers. Our focus is to ensure
that our bundled third party software will
continue to properly process date/time data after
January 1, 2000.
Brother fax machines and multi-function centers
will function properly after January 1, 2000,
provided that
software and firmware used by our customers
in connection or combination with Brother fax
machines, MFCs and bundled software,
accurately exchange date data with the
Brother products.
Please continue to check our Web page for
updates at http://www.brother.com. All
remedies will be provided to individual
customers via software patches through
software download or from Brother
Customer Service.
Brother Customer Service has installed an easy-to-use Fax-Back System, so
you can get instant answers to common technical questions and product
information for all Brother products. This system is available 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week. You can use the system to send faxes to any fax
machine, not just the one from which you are calling.
If you can’t resolve a difficulty with your MFC using this manual, call our
Fax-Back System, and follow the voice prompts to receive faxed
instructions about using the system and an index of Fax-Back subjects.

About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time MFC user, fax operation might seem a little
mysterious. Soon, you’ll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone
line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
(For USA Only)
Fax Tones and Handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the MFC sends fax calling tones, (CNG
tones)—soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when
you dial and press
During that time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the
receiving machine. Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you
are sending CNG tones over the phone line. You’ll soon learn to listen for these
soft beeps each time you answer a phone on your fax line, so you can know if
you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones-loud, chirping sounds.
A receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the
screen displays RECEIVING. If your MFC is set to the FAX mode, it will
answer every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other
party hangs up, your MFC continues to send the “chirps” for about 40
seconds, and the screen continues to display RECEIVING. To cancel the
receiving mode, press
Start
, and they continue for about 40 seconds after dialing.
Stop
.
INTRODUCTION
When your MFC answers in FAX/TEL mode, the MFC listens for CNG
tones and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax “handshake” is the time in which the sending machine’s CNG tones
and the receiving machines “chirps” overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4
seconds, so the machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the
fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones
only last for about 40 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s
important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as
possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax
line, your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is
answered. Pay special attention to the directions in the Installation chapter for
connecting a TAD to your MFC.
3
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.

Choosing a Location
Place your MFC on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that
is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the MFC near a telephone jack and a
standard, grounded power outlet.
Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near
heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose
the MFC to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Make sure
nothing blocks the flow of air from the fan on the right side of the machine.
Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall
switches or automatic timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information
in the unit’s memory. Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets on
the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might disrupt
the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base
units of cordless phones.

Since the MFC is grounded through the power outlet, you can protect
yourself from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the
telephone network by keeping the power to your machine on when you
connect it to a telephone line. Similarly, you can protect yourself when
you want to move your machine, by disconnecting the telephone line
first, and then the power cord.

Connecting an External
Telephone Answering Device (TAD)
Sequence
You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you
have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the MFC, the TAD
answers all calls. The MFC “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears
them, the MFC takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear
CNG tones, the MFC 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 MFC cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the
call, and with four rings there are only 8–10 seconds of CNG tones left for
the fax “handshake.” Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this
manual for recording your outgoing message.
20
CHAPTER TWO
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line—your MFC and
TAD will both try to control the line.
Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the left side of the MFC in the jack

Recording Outgoing Message (OGM)
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the
ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.
Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This
1
allows your MFC time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic
transmissions before they stop.)
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

Connecting an External Telephone
Your MFC is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone.
However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone
answering device) directly to your MFC.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled
EXT. on the left side of the MFC.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays
EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if the MFC handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To
disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the MFC, press
Hook

CHAPTER TWO
Special Line Considerations
Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone 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 phone line in a preset
order.
Your MFC 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 MFC on any of the
other numbers; when the other lines are busy and a second fax call is
received, the fax call would be transferred to a line that does not have a fax
machine. Your MFC will work best on a dedicated line.
Two-Line Phone System
A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers
on the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks
(RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your MFC 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 phone and see if it can access both lines. If it can,
you must separate the line for your MFC.
Converting T elephone Wall Outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 receptacle. The first two ways
may require assistance 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 phone 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). Plug the MFC
into Line 2 of the triplex adapter.

MFC SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
23
Installing MFC, External Two-Line TAD,
and T wo-Line Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device
(TAD) and a two-line telephone, your MFC must be isolated on one line at
both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put
the MFC on Line 2. 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 MFC and two
for your external two-line TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add
a two-line telephone.
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your
1
MFC.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your fax machine into the
L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on
the left side of the MFC.
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1
3
jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack
of the two-line TAD.
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the
4
L2 jack of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on
the left side of the MFC.
Triplex Adapter
Two Line External TADFAX/MFC
You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are
two ways to add a two-line telephone to the MFC’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.
Two Line Phone

CHAPTER TWO
Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively
simple to connect the MFC to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch
Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your
telephone system and ask them to connect the MFC for you. It is advisable
to have a separate line for the MFC. You can then leave the MFC in FAX
mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
If the MFC is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to
connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from
being activated each time a telephone call is received.
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If
your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the MFC cannot be
made.
If you are installing the MFC to work with a PBX:
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all
1
circumstances with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported
first to the company that handles your PBX.
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is
2
recommended that the Answer Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming
calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
The MFC may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone
3
service.

Distinctive Ringing
This MFC feature lets you use the Distinctive Ringing subscriber service offered
by some telephone companies, which allows you to have several telephone
numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own Distinctive Ringing
pattern, so you’ll know which phone number is ringing. This is one wa y you
can have a separate phone number for your MFC.
Your MFC has a Distinctive Ringing function, allowing you to dedicate one
phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to follow the directions
below to “register” the new Distinctive Ringing pattern, that was assigned
by the Telephone Company, so your MFC can recognize its incoming calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ringing pattern at any time. You
can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax
number, be sure to you reset this function.
You can register only one Distinctive Ringing pattern with the MFC. Some
ringing patterns cannot be registered.

The MFC will answer only calls to its registered number.
