BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER/FACSIMILE MACHINE
LIMITED WARRANTY
(For Canada Only)
Pursuant to this limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts, Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its Authorized Service Centers, will repair this MFC/Facsimile machine free of charge if defective in material or workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables (including, without limitation, print cartridges, print head, toner and drum) or damage caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation, any damage caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other than a Brother Authorized Service Representative, or from the use of supplies or consumable items that are non-Brother products. Operation of the MFC/Facsimile machine 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. In order to obtain warranty service, the MFC/Facsimile machine must be delivered or shipped freight prepaid by the end user/purchaser to a “Brother” Authorized Service Center, together with your Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.
For laser products: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit on applicable models) during shipping will cause severe damage to the MFC/Facsimile and will VOID the Warranty. (Refer to your Operation Manual for proper packaging.)
For ink-jet products: Do not remove the ink cartridges during shipping. Damage to your print head resulting from packing without the ink cartridges will VOID your warranty. (Refer to your Operation Manual for proper packaging.)
BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS 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 Centers, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create another warranty or modify this warranty. This warranty states Brother’s entire liability and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the MFC/Facsimile machine to operate properly.
Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of this MFC/Facsimile 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 Providence to Providence.
Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centers throughout Canada.

About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time fax machine 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.
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 dialing. 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 will 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.
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 fax machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones last for only 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.
Start
, and they continue for about 40 seconds after
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 Assembly and Connections chapter for connecting a TAD to your MFC.
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
ECM is a way for the machine 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 machine 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. Place the MFC near a telephone jack and a standard, grounded power outlet. Choose a location where the temperature remains between 50°F and 95°F (10°–35°C).
Avoid placing your MFC 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. Do not connect your MFC to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information in the MFC’s memory. Do not connect your MFC 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.
NO !
WARNING
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines. Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the wall jack. Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for a wet location.
Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a quality surge protection device on the AC power line and on the telephone line, or unplug the lines during a lightning storm.
For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
To reduce the risk of shock or fire, use only a No. 26 AWG or larger telecommunication line cord.

ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS
Connections
Connecting an External Telephone
Although your MFC does not have a handset, you can 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 TELEPHONE. To disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the MFC, press
Connecting an External TAD (Telephone Answering Device)
Sequence
You might choose to connect an answering system. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the MFC, the TAD answers all calls. The machine “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. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds 4 rings.
Hook
.
Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the left side of the MFC in the jack labeled EXT. Your MFC cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack.
If You Subscribe to your Telephone Company’s Distinctive Ring Service:
You may connect an external TAD to a separate wall jack only if you subscribe to your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service, have registered the distinctive ring pattern on your machine, use that number as a fax number and set your MFC’s Answer mode to MANUAL.
If You Do NOT Subscribe to Distinctive Ring Service:
You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your MFC. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your MFC and the TAD will try to control the phone line. (See illustration on page 2-10.)
ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS
2 - 9
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line.
Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the
1
MFC, in the jack labeled LINE. Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the
2
MFC, in the jack labeled EXT. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD’s telephone line jack, and not its telephone set jack.)
Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The MFC’s Ring Delay
3
setting does not apply). Record the outgoing message. (See below.)
4
Set the Answer mode to EXT. TEL/TAD (Function 1, 2, 1, page 5-1).
5
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.
1
(This allows your MFC time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. (See Easy Receive, page 5-2.)
2
End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people
3
sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing
We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second silence because the MFC cannot hear fax tones over a resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but if your MFC has trouble receiving, then you must rerecord the OGM to include it.

ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS
5 1 and Start.”
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 Telephone 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). If your MFC is on Line 1, plug the MFC into L1 of the triplex adapter. If your MFC is on Line 2, plug it into L2 of the triplex adapter.

Installing MFC, External Two-Line TAD, and Tw o-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, which is our assumption 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 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 MFC.
1
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your MFC into the L2 jack of
2
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 jack
3
of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line T AD.
Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2
4
jack of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the left side of the MFC.

Two Line Phone
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.

ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS
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 MFC 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 service.

Distinctive Ring
This feature lets you use the Distinctive Ring 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 Ring pattern, so you’ll know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your MFC.
Your MFC has a Distinctive Ring 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 Ring pattern, that was assigned by the Telephone Company, so your MFC can recognize its incoming calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ring pattern at any time. You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number, be sure you reset this function.
You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the MFC. Some ring patterns cannot be registered.
The MFC will answer only calls to its registered number.
You will not hear the first two rings of all incoming calls on the MFC.
To have your external TAD answer only the main number, the MFC must be in MANUAL Mode.
In FAX mode, the MFC will answer all numbers on the phone line.

Caller ID
The Caller ID feature lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. Subscriber services send the name or telephone number of your caller as the line rings.
When a call comes in, after a few rings, the MFC displays the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once the call is answered, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name.
OUT OF AREA display means call originates outside your Caller ID service area.
PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of information.
If both the name and number are received, the screen displays only the name. You can print a list of received Caller ID information.
Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local phone company to determine the kind of service available in your area.
Viewing Caller ID List
Caller ID memory stores information for up to thirty calls; when the thirty-first call comes in, the first call is erased. You can scroll through Caller ID information to review those calls made to your MFC.

Dialing Access Codes and Credit Card Numbers
Sometimes you may want to choose from 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. You can store these long dialing sequences by dividing them and setting them up separately in any combination. You can even include manual dialing using the dial pad. The combined number will be dialed in the order you entered it, as soon as you press page 7-1.)
For example: You store “555” on One Touch key If you press One Touch temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with manual dialing using the dial pad. For example, to change the number to 555-7001 you can press One Touch dial pad.
