BROTHER LASER PRINTER / MULTIFUNCTION CENTER® /
FAX ON-SITE WARRANTY
(Canada only)
For a limited on-site warranty of 1 year labour and parts from the date of purchase, Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its authorized on-site service providers, will repair or replace (at Brother’s sole discretion) this Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine free of charge if defective in material or workmanship. This warranty applies only to products purchased and used in Canada. This limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables (including, without limitation, toner cartridges and drum units, OPC belts, fixing units, print heads, paper feed rollers, transfer rolls, cleaning rollers, waste toner packs, oil bottles) or damage caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation or any damage caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other than a Brother Authorized Service Representative, or if shipped out of the country. The use of supplies or consumable items that are non-Brother products may void your warranty. This limited warranty ceases when this machine is rented, sold, or otherwise disposed of. Operation of the laser printer/MFC/Fax in excess of the specifications or with the Serial Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser. The Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine will be serviced on-site. Canadian Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt must be provided if requested by the service personnel. In the event that geographical location does not permit us to provide on-site service to you, Brother reserves the right to exchange your machine with an equivalent or better one through a courier service.
When shipping or transporting your Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine, please refer to your Operation Manual for the proper packaging procedures. Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit, waste toner packs or oil bottles on applicable models) during shipping or transport will cause severe damage to the Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine and will void the Warranty.
Improper packaging may cause severe damage to the machine during shipping and will void the warranty.
BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATIONS, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY WAIVED.
No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its Authorized Service Centres, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create another warranty or modify this warranty. The warranty states Brother’s entire liability and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine to operate properly.
Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of this Laser Printer/MFC/Fax machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the use of or inability to use the product, even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the possibility of such damages. Since some Provinces do not allow the above limitation of liability, such limitation, may not apply to you.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights which vary from Province to Province.
Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centres throughout Canada. For Technical Assistance or for the name and location of your nearest Authorized Service Centre call 1-877-Brother. Internet support: support@brother.ca or browse Brother’s Web Site www.brother.ca.

Handling and using special paper 2
The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Store paper in its original packaging and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Some important guidelines when selecting paper are:
Do not use inkjet paper because it may
cause a paper jam or damage your machine.
Your supplier should be informed that the
paper or envelopes will be used in a color laser machine.
Preprinted paper must use inks that can
withstand the temperature of the machine’s fusing process (392 degrees Fahrenheit or 200 degrees centigrade for a period of 0.1 seconds).
If you have selected a cotton bond paper,
paper having a rough surface, such as cockle or laid finished paper or paper that is wrinkled or puckered, the paper may exhibit degraded performance.
Types of paper to avoid 2
Some types of paper may not perform well or may cause damage to your machine.
DO NOT use paper:
If you use any of the types of paper listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.

Loading paper and documents
Envelopes 2
Most envelopes will be suitable for your machine. However, some envelopes will have feed and print-quality problems because of the way they have been made. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well-creased folds and the leading edge should not be thicker than two pieces of paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction. You should buy quality envelopes from a supplier who understands that you will be using the envelopes in a laser machine.
Envelopes can only be fed from the MP tray. Before you put envelopes in the tray, check
the following:
Envelopes should have a lengthwise
sealing flap.
The sealing flaps should be folded crisply
and correctly (irregularly cut or folded envelopes may cause paper jams).
Envelopes should consist of two layers of
paper in the area circled in figure below.
Note
• Before you print envelopes, you must ‘fan’ the stack to avoid paper jams and misfeeds.
• Before you print a lot of envelopes, test one to make sure that the print results are what you want.
• Envelope joints that are sealed by the manufacturer should be secure.
• DO NOT put different types of paper in the paper tray at the same time because it may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
• For proper printing, you must choose the same paper or envelope size from your software application as the paper or envelopes in the tray.
• We recommend that you do not print within 0.6 in. (15 mm) of the edges of the envelopes.
• See Acceptable paper and other media on page 12.

Types of envelopes to avoid 2
DO NOT use envelopes:
CAUTION
• that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape
• that are extremely shiny or textured
• with clasps, staples, snaps or tie strings
• with self-adhesive closures
• that are of a baggy construction
• that are not sharply creased
• that are embossed (have raised writing on them)
• that were previously printed by a laser machine
• that are pre-printed on the inside
• that cannot be arranged neatly when stacked
• that are made of paper that weighs more than the paper weight specifications for the machine
• with edges that are not straight or consistently square
• with windows, holes, cut-outs or perforations
• with glue on surface as shown in figure below
• with sealing flaps that have not been folded at purchase
• with sealing flaps as shown in figure below
• with each side folded as shown in figure below
If you use any of the types of envelopes listed above, they may damage your machine. This damage is not covered under any Brother warranty or service agreement.
Occasionally you may experience paper feed problems caused by the thickness, size and flap shape of the envelopes you are using.
• with double flaps as shown in figure below
16
Labels 2
The machine will print on most types of labels designed for use with a laser machine. Labels should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based since this material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the machine, because the label stock may stick to the belt unit or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems. No adhesive should be exposed between the labels. Labels should be arranged so that they cover the entire length and width of the sheet. Using labels with spaces may result in labels peeling off and causing serious jams or print problems.
All labels used in this machine must be able to withstand a temperature of 392 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees centigrade) for a period of 0.1 seconds.
Loading paper and documents
2
Label sheets should not exceed the paper weight specifications described in this User’s Guide. Labels exceeding this specification may not feed or print properly and may cause damage to your machine.
Labels can be fed from the MP tray only.
Types of labels to avoid 2
Do not use labels that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or an unusual shape.
Avoid feeding labels with the carrier sheet exposed because your machine will be damaged.

Choose the correct Receive Mode 6

The correct Receive mode is determined by the external devices and telephone subscriber services (Voice Mail, Distinctive Ring, etc.) you have (or will be using) on the same line as the Brother machine.
Will you be using a Distinctive Ring number for receiving faxes? Brother uses the term "Distinctive Ring" but different telephone companies may have other names for this service such as Custom Ringing, RingMaster, Personalized Ring, Teen Ring, Ident-A-Ring, Ident-A-Call, Date Ident-A-Call, Smart Ring and SimpleBiz Fax & Alternate Number Ringing. See Distinctive Ring on page 47 for instructions on setting up your machine using this feature.
Will you be using Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Brother machine? If you have Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Brother machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the Brother machine will conflict with each other when receiving incoming calls. See Voice Mail on page 46 for instructions on setting up your machine using this service.
Will you be using a Telephone Answering Device on the same telephone line as your Brother machine?
Your external telephone answering device (TAD) will automatically answer every call. Voice messages are stored on the external TAD and fax messages are printed. Choose External TAD as your receive mode. See External TAD on page 42.
6
Will you be using your Brother machine on a dedicated fax line?
Your machine automatically answers every call as a fax. Choose Fax Only as your receive mode. See Fax Only on page 42.
Will you be using your Brother machine on the same line as your telephone?
Do you want to receive voice calls and faxes automatically?
The Fax/Tel receive mode is used when sharing the Brother machine and your telephone on the same line. Choose Fax/Tel as your receive mode. See Fax/Tel on page 42. Important Note: You can not receive voice messages on either Voice Mail or an answering machine when choosing the Fax/Tel mode.
Do you expect to receive very few faxes? Choose Manual as your receive mode. You control the telephone line and must answer every call yourself. See Manual on page 42.

Fax Only mode will automatically answer every call as a fax.
Fax/Tel 6
Fax/Tel mode helps you automatically manage incoming calls, by recognizing whether they are fax or voice calls and handling them in one of the following ways:
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 on page 43 and Ring delay on page 43.)

Manual mode turns off all automatic answering functions unless you are using the Distinctive Ring Receive feature.
To receive a fax in Manual mode lift the handset of the external telephone or press Hook. When you hear fax tones (short repeating beeps), press Black Start or Color Start and then press 2 to receive a fax. You can also use the Easy Receive feature to receive faxes by lifting a handset on the same line as the machine.

If you have Voice Mail on the same telephone line as your Brother machine, Voice Mail and the Brother machine will conflict with each other when receiving incoming calls.
For example, if your Voice Mail is set to answer after 4 rings and your Brother machine is set to answer after 2 rings, then your Brother machine will answer first. This will prevent callers from being able to leave a message in your Voice Mail.
Similarly, if your Brother machine is set to answer after 4 rings and your Voice Mail is set to answer after 2 rings, then your Voice Mail will answer first. This will prevent your Brother machine from being able to receive an incoming fax, since Voice Mail cannot transfer the incoming fax back to the Brother machine.

Typically, the original number rings with the standard ring pattern and is used for receiving voice calls, and the second number rings with a different ring pattern and is used for receiving faxes. (See Distinctive Ring on page 47.)
OR
Set your Brother machine's Receive Mode to "Manual." Manual Mode requires that you answer every incoming call if you want to be able to receive a fax. If the incoming call is a telephone call, then complete the call as you normally would. If you hear fax sending tones you must transfer the call to the Brother machine. (See External and extension telephones on page 52.) Unanswered fax and voice calls will go to your Voice Mail. (To set the machine in MANUAL Mode, see
Choose the correct Receive Mode on page 41.)

To avoid conflicts between your Brother machine and your voice mail service, do one of the following:
Get the Distinctive Ring service from your telephone company. Distinctive Ring is a feature of your Brother machine that allows a person with one line to receive fax and voice calls through two different telephone numbers on that one line. Brother uses the term 'Distinctive Ring,' but telephone companies market the service under a variety of names, such as Custom Ringing, Personalized Ring, Smart Ring, RingMaster, Ident-A-Ring, Ident-A-Call, Data Ident-A-Call,

Distinctive Ring 7
Distinctive Ring is a function of your Brother machine that allows a person with one line to receive fax and voice calls through two different phone numbers on that one line. Brother uses the term “Distinctive Ring”, but telephone companies market the service under a variety of names, such as Smart Ring, Ring Master or Ident-a-Ring. This service establishes a second telephone number on the same line as your existing telephone number, and each number has its own ring pattern. Typically, the original number rings with the standard ring pattern and is used for receiving voice calls, and the second number rings with a different ring pattern and is used for receiving faxes.
Note
• You must pay for your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service before you program the machine to work with it.
• Please call your telephone company for availability and rates.
Do you have voice mail? 7
If you have Voice Mail on the telephone line that you will install your new machine on,
there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the
Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the machine can work together without any problems. If each one
has a separate telephone number, neither will interfere with the other’s operations.
If you decide to get the Distinctive Ring service from the telephone company, you will need to follow the directions below to ‘register’ the new Distinctive Ring pattern they give you. This is so your machine can recognize its incoming calls.
Note
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can switch it off temporarily, and turn it back on later. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this feature.
7
What does Brother’s ‘distinctive ring’ do? 7
The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your machine to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service. The new telephone number on your line can just receive faxes.
Note
You must pay for your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service before you program the machine to work with it.

Chapter 7
Before you choose the ring pattern to register 7
You can only register one Distinctive Ring pattern with the machine. Some ring patterns cannot be registered. The ring patterns below are supported by your Brother machine. Register the one your telephone company gives you.

1 long-long
2 short-long-short
3 short-short-long
4 very long
Rings
(normal pattern)
Note
If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, please call your telephone
company and ask for one that is shown.
The machine will only answer calls to its
registered number.
The first two rings are silent on the
machine. This is because the fax must <<listen>> to the ring pattern (to compare it to the pattern that was ‘registered’). (Other telephones on the same line will ring.)
If you program the machine properly, it will
recognize the registered ring pattern of the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and then answer with a fax tone. When the ‘voice number’ is called, the machine will not answer.
Registering the distinctive ring pattern Very important! 7
After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature to On, your Distinctive Ring number will receive faxes automatically. The receive mode is automatically set to Manual and you cannot change it to another receive mode while Distinctive Ring is set to On. This ensures the Brother machine will only answer the Distinctive Ring number and not interfere when your main telephone number is called.

Telephone services and external devices

Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device)

You can connect an external Telephone Answering Device (TAD) to the same line as your machine. When the TAD answers a call, your machine will “listen” for the CNG (fax calling) tones sent by a sending fax machine. If it hears them it will take over the call and receive the fax. If it does not hear them, it will let your TAD take a voice message and the display will show Telephone.
The external TAD must answer within four rings (we recommend you set it to two rings). This is because your machine cannot hear the CNG tones until the external TAD has picked up the call. The sending machine will send CNG tones for only eight to ten seconds longer. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external TAD if it needs more than four rings to activate it.
Unless you are using Distinctive Ring, the TAD must be connected to the EXT jack of the machine.
1
Connections 7
The external TAD must be plugged into the back of the machine, into the jack labeled
7
EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring).
a Plug the telephone line cord from the
telephone wall jack into the back of the machine, in the jack labeled LINE.
b Plug the telephone line cord from your
external TAD into the back of the machine, in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD’s telephone line jack, and not its handset jack.)
c Set your external TAD to four rings or
less. (The machine’s Ring Delay setting does not apply.)
d Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
e Set the TAD to answer calls. f Set the Receive Mode to
External TAD. (See Choose the correct Receive Mode on page 41.)

Note
If you have problems receiving faxes, reduce the ring delay setting on your external TAD.

Chapter 7
Recording an outgoing message (OGM) 7
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. This allows your machine time to listen for fax tones.
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. c End your 20-second message by giving
your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing l51 and Start.”
Note
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5 second silence because the machine cannot hear fax tones over a loud voice. You may try leaving out this pause, but if your machine has trouble receiving, then you should re-record the OGM to include it.
Special line considerations 7
Roll over telephone lines 7
A roll over telephone 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 telephone line in a preset order.
Two-line telephone system 7
A two-line telephone system is nothing more than two separate telephone numbers on the same wall outlet. The two telephone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your machine 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 telephone and see if it can access both lines. If it can, you must separate the line for your machine. (See Easy receive on page 44.)
Converting telephone wall outlets 7
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 jack. 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 telephone 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). If your machine is on Line 1, plug the machine into L1 of the triplex adapter. If your machine is on Line 2, plug it into L2 of the triple adapter.
RJ14
Your machine 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 machine 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 machine will work best on a
dedicated line.

Telephone services and external devices
Installing machine, external two-line TAD and two-line telephone 7
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD) and a two-line telephone, your machine must be isolated on one line at both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the machine on Line 2, which is explained in the following steps. 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 machine and two for your external two­line 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 machine.
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your machine into the L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the back of the machine.
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1 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 L2 jack of the two­line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the left side of the machine.
1
2
You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways to add a two-line telephone to the machine’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.
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.

External and extension telephones 7

Operation from extension telephones 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make your machine take the call by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code l51 the machine starts to receive the fax. (See Easy receive on page 44.)
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 telephone. (See F/T ring time on page 43.)
If you answer a call and no one is on the line: 7
You should assume that you’re receiving a manual fax.
Connecting an external or extension telephone 7
You can connect a separate telephone directly to your machine as shown in the diagram below.
Connect the telephone line cord to the jack labeled EXT.

When you are using an external telephone, the LCD shows Telephone.
Press l51 and wait for the chirp or until the machine’s LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
For Fax/Tel mode only 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.
Lift the external telephone’s handset, and then press Hook to answer.
If you’re at an extension telephone, you will 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 l51.
52
Using a non-Brother cordless external handset 7
If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the machine (see page 52) 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 Hook to transfer the call to the cordless handset.
Using remote codes 7
Fax Receive Code 7
If you answer a fax call on an extension or external telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by pressing the fax receive code l51. Wait for the chirping sounds then replace the handset. (See Easy receive on page 44.)
If you answer a fax call at external telephone, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Black Start.
Telephone Answer 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).

Fax reports 11

Some fax reports (transmission verification and fax journal) can be printed automatically and manually.
Transmission verification report 11
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 (shown as “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 to Off+Image, the report will only print if there is a transmission error.
Fax journal 11
You can set the machine to print a fax journal (activity report) at specific intervals (every 50 faxes, 6, 12 or 24 hours, 2 or 7 days). The default setting is Every 50 Faxes, this means that your machine will print the journal when the machine has stored 50 jobs.
If you set the interval to Off, you can still print the report by following the steps on the next page.

If you choose 6, 12, 24 hours, 2 or 7 days, the machine will print the report at the selected time and then erase all jobs from its memory. If the machine’s memory becomes full with 200 jobs before the time you chose has passed, the machine will print the journal early and then erase all jobs from memory.
If you want an extra report before it is due to print, you can print it manually without erasing the jobs from memory.
