General Information
About fax machines1
Custom features1
Do you have BT's Call minder on the
phone line?
If you have Call minder on the phone line
where you will install your new machine,
there is a strong possibility that Call minder
and the machine may conflict with each other
while receiving incoming calls.
Why should there be problems?1
Since both the machine and Call minder will
pick up the call after the number of rings you
have set, each of them has the ability to keep
the other from receiving calls.
For example, if Call minder is set to answer
after two rings and your machine is set to
answer after four, Call minder will stop your
machine from receiving faxes.
If you set Call minder and the Brother
machine to answer after the same number of
rings, there is no way of knowing which one
will answer first. It is important to remember
that neither Call minder nor the machine can
pass the call back to the other after the call
has been answered.
How can you avoid possible
problems?
A very good way to avoid problems like the
one mentioned, is to get a second phone number on your present phone line.
Many people with Call minder choose
another service, which is called ‘BT Call
Sign’, and they are very satisfied with it. (See
BT Call Sign (For U.K. Only) on page 42.)
Another way to avoid possible problems is to
replace your Call minder with an answering
machine. Your Brother machine is designed
to work with an answering machine or TAD
(telephone answering device).
(See Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD) on page 43.)
Fax tones and handshake1
When someone is sending a fax, the machine
sends fax calling tones (CNG tones). These
1
are quiet, intermittent beeps every
4 seconds. You will hear them after you dial
and press Mono Start or Colour Start and
they will continue for about 60 seconds after
dialling During that time, the sending
machine must begin the ‘handshake’ or
connection with the receiving machine.
Each time you use automatic procedures to
send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over
the phone line. You will soon learn to listen for
these quiet beeps each time you answer a
phone on your fax line, so you will know if you
are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving
tones, which are loud, chirping sounds. A
receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds
over the phone line, and the LCD shows
Receiving.
If your machine is set to the Fax Only mode,
it will answer every call automatically with fax
receiving tones. If the other person hangs up,
your machine will continue to send the
‘chirps’ for about 40 seconds, and the LCD
continues to show Receiving. To cancel
receiving, press Stop/Exit.
The fax ‘handshake’ is the time in which the
1
sending machine's CNG tones and the
receiving machine's ‘chirps’ overlap. This
must be for at least 2 to 4 seconds, so both
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 60 seconds after the number is dialed.
So it is important for the receiving machine to
answer the call in as few rings as possible.
1
9
Chapter 1
Note
When you have an external Telephone
Answering Device (TAD) on your fax line,
your TAD will decide the number of rings
before the call is answered.
ECM (Error Correction Mode) 1
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for
the machine to check a fax transmission
while it is in progress. If the machine detects
errors during fax transmission, it resends the
pages of the fax that had an error. ECM
transmissions are only possible between fax
machines that both have this feature. If they
do, you may send and receive fax messages
that are continuously being checked by the
machine.

Loading documents and paper
About paper2
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 the recommended
paper.
When you print on inkjet paper (coated
paper), transparencies and glossy 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
Setting the Paper Type on page 22).
When you print on Brother glossy paper,
load the instruction sheet included with the
glossy paper in the paper tray first, and
then put the glossy paper on the
instruction sheet.
When you use transparencies or glossy
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 special paper
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 glossy paper is shiny.
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side. Load
glossy 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:

• Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or
irregularly shaped paper

Recommended paper2
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.

only)
External TAD
(with an external
answering machine
only)
Manual
(manual receive)
(with an external or
extension telephone
only)
The machine
automatically answers
every call as a fax.
The machine controls the
line and automatically
answers every call. If the
call is a fax it will receive
the fax. If the call is not a
fax it will ring
(pseudo/double ring) for
you to pick up the call.
The external answering
machine (TAD)
automatically answers
every call.
Voice messages are
stored on the external
TAD. If it is a fax call, the
machine receives the fax.
You control the phone line
and must answer every
call yourself.
For dedicated fax lines.
Use this mode if you expect to receive lots of fax
messages and few telephone calls. You cannot use
an answering machine on the same line, even if it is
on a separate socket/phone socket on the same
line. You cannot use the telephone company's Voice
Mail in this mode.
Use this mode if you want to use an answering
machine connected to your machine.
The External TAD setting works only with an
external answering machine. Ring Delay does not
work in this setting.
Use this mode if you do not receive many fax
messages, use BT Call Sign, or if you are using a
computer on the same line.
If you answer and hear fax tones, wait until the
machine takes over the call, then hang up. (See Fax Detect on page 39.)

Voice operations 7
Voice calls can be made either with an
extension or external telephone.
Tone or pulse7
If you are using an external phone and have
a pulse dialling service, but need to send tone
signals (for example, for telephone banking),
follow the instructions below. If you have
Touch Tone service, you will not need this
feature to send tone signals.
a Lift the handset of the external phone.
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.
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line:
You should assume that you're receiving a
manual fax.
If you want to use Remote Activation, you
have to turn on the remote codes. (See
Changing the remote codes on page 46.)
Press l 51 and wait for the chirp or until the
LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
Note
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to
make your machine automatically take the
call. (See Fax Detect on page 39.)
Fax/Tel mode 7
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (pseudo/doubleringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.

Operation from extension
telephones7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or an
external telephone into the correct socket on
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 #51 to take the
call at an extension phone. (See Setting the F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on
page 38.)
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 phone, 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.
Fax/Tel mode in Power Save
condition7
Fax/Tel mode does not work in the power
save condition. The machine will not answer
telephone or fax calls and will keep ringing. If
you are at an external or extension phone, 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.

Setting the Phone Line Type 7
If you are connecting the machine to a line
that features PBX or ISDN to send and
receive faxes, it is also necessary to change
the Phone Line Type accordingly by
completing the following steps.
a Press Menu.
b Press a or b to choose
Initial Setup.
Press OK.
c Press a or b to choose
Phone Line Set.
Press OK.
d Press a or b to choose PBX, ISDN (or
Normal).
Press OK.
e Press Stop/Exit.
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 Automatic
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 the Tel/R
key 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 SpeedDial 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 for easy dialling on page 49.)
However, if PBX is not chosen in the
Phone Line Type setting, you cannot use
the Speed-Dial number that the Tel/R
press is programmed into.
BT Call Sign (For 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 phone line. Each phone
number has its own distinctive ringing
pattern, so you know which phone number is
ringing. This is one way you can have a
separate phone number for your machine.
Your machine has a BT Call Sign compatible
distictive ringing functions, allowing you to
dedicate a second phone number (on the
same phone 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.

telephone answering device
(TAD) 7
7

2
7
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.
43
Chapter 7
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, cut the
Ring Delay setting on your external TAD.
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the
same phone line.

c Set the TAD to answer calls.
d Set the Receive Mode to

Recording outgoing message (OGM)
on an external TAD
Timing is important in recording this
message. The message sets up the ways to
handle both manual and automatic fax
reception.
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the

your machine time to listen for the fax
CNG tones of automatic transmissions
before they stop.)
7
1TAD
When the TAD answers a call, the LCD
shows Telephone.
44
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 rerecord the OGM to include it.
Phone Services and External devices
Using extension telephones
(For 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, fax receive 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 on next
page). 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 offhook detection.’
The inadvisable configuration is shown in
figure 1 on the next page, 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.

Note
These phones are now connected as
external devices (see Connecting an external or extension telephone on
page 43), because they are connected to
the fax machine via the T-connector.
Multi-line connections (PBX) 7
Most offices use a central telephone system.
While it is often relatively simple to connect
the machine 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 machine for you. It is advisable to have a
separate line for the machine.
45
Chapter 7
If the machine is to be connected to a multiline 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.
If you are installing the machine to
work with a PBX
a It is not guaranteed that the unit will work
properly under all circumstances with a
PBX. Report any cases of problems first
to the company that handles your PBX.
b If all incoming calls will be answered by
a switchboard operator, we recommend
setting the Receive Mode to Manual. All
incoming calls should at first be
regarded as telephone calls.
c Make sure the Phone Line Type is set to
PBX. (See Setting the Phone Line Type
on page 42.)
Custom features on your
phone line7
If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call
Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, an answering
service, an alarm system or any other custom
feature on one phone line it may create a
problem with the operation of your machine.
(See If you are having difficulty with your machine on page 102.)
Using a cordless phone7
If your cordless telephone is connected to the
telephone line cord (See Connecting an external device to your machine on page 43.)
and you typically carry the cordless handset
elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during
the Ring Delay.
Changing the remote codes7
Remote activation lets you send commands
to your machine from an extension or
external phone. To use Remote Activation,
you must turn on the remote codes. The
preset Fax Receive Code is l 51. The
preset Telephone Answer Code is #51. If
7
you want to, you can replace them with your
own codes.

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 49.)
For example, you have stored ‘555’ on
Speed-Dial: 03 and ‘7000’ on Speed-Dial: 02.

Your machine is designed to be compatible
with modern digital camera image files and
media cards; however, please read the points
below to avoid errors:
The DPOF file on the media card must be
in a valid format. (See DPOF printing on
page 78.)
The image file extension must be .JPG
(Other image file extensions like .JPEG,
.TIF, .GIF and so on will not be
recognized).
Walk-up PhotoCapture Center™ printing
must be performed separately from
PhotoCapture Center™ operations using
the PC. (Simultaneous operation is not
available.)
IBM Microdrive™ is not compatible with
the machine.
The machine can read up to 999 files on a
media card.
Use only Smart media cards with a 3.3v
voltage rating.
CompactFlash
xD-Picture Card™ Type M (Large
Capacity) is supported.
Please be aware of the following:
When printing the INDEX or IMAGE, the
PhotoCapture Center™ will print all the
valid images, even if one or more images
have been corrupted. A portion of the
corrupted image may be printed.
®
Type II is not supported.
74
Walk-Up PhotoCapture Center™
Your machine is designed to read media
cards that have been formatted by a digital
camera.
When a digital camera formats a media
card it creates a special folder into which it
copies image data. If you need to modify
the image data stored on a media 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 media 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.
