Auto Tray Select will allow your machine to take paper from Tray #1 first, or from Tray #2 if:

 Tray #2 is set to a different paper size that

is more suitable for the received faxes.

 Both trays are using the same size paper

and Tray #1 is not set to use plain paper.

Acceptable paper and other print media

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 Brother paper.

 When you print on inkjet paper (coated

paper), transparencies and glossy paper, be sure to choose the proper print media in the Basic tab of the printer driver or in the Paper Type setting of the machine’s menu.

 When you print on Brother Photo paper,

load one extra sheet of the same photo paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has been included in the paper package for this purpose.

 When using transparencies or photo

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.

Recommended print media 2

IMPORTANT

Loading paper

To get the best print quality, we suggest using Brother paper. (See the table below.)

We recommend using “3M Transparency Film” when you print on transparencies.

Handling and using print media 2

 Store paper in its original packaging and

keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat.

 Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of

the photo paper.

 Avoid touching either side of the

transparency paper 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

1 0.08 in. (2 mm) or greater curl may

cause jams to occur.

• Extremely shiny or highly textured

• Paper that cannot be arranged uniformly when stacked

Receiving a fax 5

Receive Modes 5

Choose the correct Receive Mode 5

The correct Receive Mode is determined by the external devices and telephone subscriber services (Voice Mail, Distinctive Ring, etc.) you 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, Data Ident-A-Call, Smart Ring and SimpleBiz Fax & Alternate Number Ringing. (See Distinctive Ring on page 62 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 61 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 Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device) on page 65.)

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 55.)

Will you be using your Brother machine on the same line as your telephone?

Do you want to receive voice calls and faxes automatically?

Fax/Tel 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 55.) Important Note: You cannot receive voice messages on either Voice Mail or an answering machine with 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 55.)

Using Receive Modes 5

Some Receive Modes answer automatically (Fax Only and Fax/Tel). You may want to change the Ring Delay before using these modes. (See Ring Delay on page 56.)

Fax Only 5

Fax Only mode will automatically answer every call as a fax call.

Fax/Tel 5

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 pseudo/double-ring made by your machine.

Manual 5

Manual mode turns off all automatic answering functions unless you are using the Distinctive Ring 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 Fax Start and choose Receive. You can also use the Easy Receive feature to receive faxes by lifting a handset on the same line as the machine.

(Also see Easy Receive on page 57.)

External TAD 5

External TAD mode lets an external answering device manage your incoming calls. Incoming calls will be handled in one of the following ways:

 Faxes will be automatically received.

 Voice callers can record a message on the

external TAD.

(Also see F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 56 and Ring Delay on page 56.)

Ring Delay 5

The Ring Delay sets the number of times the machine rings before it answers in Fax Only or Fax/Tel mode. If you have external or extension telephones on the same line as the machine, keep the ring delay setting of 4rings.

F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) 5

When somebody calls your machine, you and your caller will hear the normal telephone ring. The number of rings is set by the ring delay setting.

If the call is a fax, then your machine will receive it; however, if it is a voice call, the machine will sound the F/T Ring (a fast pseudo/double-ring) for the time you have set in the F/T Ring Time setting. If you hear the F/T Ring, it means that you have a voice caller on the line.

Because the F/T Ring is made by the machine, extension and external telephones will not ring; however, you can still answer the call on any telephone by using a remote code. (For more information, see Using remote codes on page 68.)

Telephone services 6

Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer.

Features like Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, RingMaster, answering services, alarm systems or other custom features on one telephone line may create problems with the operation of your machine. If you have Voice Mail on your telephone line, please read the following carefully.

Voice Mail 6

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.

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 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 Custom Ringing, Personalized Ring, Smart Ring, RingMaster, Ident-A-Ring, Ident-A-Call, Data Ident-A-Call, Teen Ring, and SimpleBiz Fax & Alternate Number Ringing. 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. (See Distinctive Ring on page 62.)

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 Using external and extension telephones on page 68.) 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 53.)

Chapter 6

NOTE

Distinctive Ring 6

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.

• 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.

What does your telephone company's “Distinctive Ring” do?

Your telephone company's Distinctive Ring service allows you to have more than one number on the same telephone line. If you

need more than one telephone number, it is cheaper than paying for an extra line.

Each telephone number has its own distinctive ring pattern, so you will know which telephone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate telephone number for your machine.

Do you have Voice Mail? 6

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 Distinctive Ring service from the telephone company, you will need to follow the directions in Registering the Distinctive Ring pattern to register the new Distinctive Ring pattern they give you. This is so your machine can recognize its incoming calls.

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.

Before you choose the ring pattern to register

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.

Ring Pattern

Rings

What does Brother's “Distinctive Ring” do?

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.

1 short-short or

long-long

2 short-long-short

3 short-short-long

4 very long

(normal pattern)

NOTE

Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short and is the most commonly used. 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 fax tones. When the “voice number” is called, the machine will not answer.

Registering the Distinctive Ring pattern

Very Important!

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 will not interfere when your main telephone number is called. When Distinctive Ring is on, the Touchscreen will show D/R as the Receive Mode.

Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) 6

VoIP is a type of phone system that uses an Internet connection instead of a traditional telephone line. Telephone providers frequently bundle VoIP together with Internet and cable services.

Your machine may not work with some VoIP systems. If you want to use your machine to send and receive faxes on a VoIP system, make sure that one end of your telephone cord is connected to the jack labeled LINE on your machine. The other end of the telephone cord may be connected to a modem, interface box, phone adapter, splitter, or other such device.

j Press .

If you turn off Distinctive Ring, the machine will stay in Manual mode. You will need to set the Receive Mode again. (See Choose the correct Receive Mode on page 53.)

 If you have questions about how to

connect your machine to the VoIP system, please contact your VoIP provider.

After you have connected your machine to the VoIP system, press Hook on the Touchscreen to verify that the machine has a dial tone. If the machine does not have a dial tone, please contact your VoIP provider.

If you are having problems sending or receiving faxes over a VoIP system, we recommend changing the machine’s modem speed to the Basic(for VoIP) setting (see Telephone line interference / VoIP on page 135).

Connecting an external

NOTE

TAD (telephone answering device)

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.

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.

Telephone services and external devices

• If you do not receive all your faxes, shorten the Ring Delay setting on your

external TAD.

• 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, and use that number as a fax number. The recommended setting is at least four rings on the external TAD when you have the telephone company's Distinctive Ring service. You cannot use the Toll Saver setting.

• If You Do Not Subscribe to the

Distinctive Ring Service:

You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the telephone line. (See the illustration below.)

• Before you connect the external TAD, remove the protective cap (2) from the EXT. jack on the machine.

1TAD

2 Protective Cap

When the TAD answers a call, the Touchscreen shows Telephone.

Chapter 6

IMPORTANT

NOTE

DO NOT connect a TAD elsewhere on the same telephone line.

e Lift the scanner cover to release the

lock. Gently push the scanner cover support down and close the scanner cover using both hands.

Connections 6

The external TAD must be plugged into the jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring).

a Using both hands, use the finger holds

on each side of the machine to lift the scanner cover into the open position.

b Plug the telephone line cord from the

telephone wall jack into the jack labeled LINE.

c Remove the protective cap (1) from the

jack labeled EXT., and then plug the telephone line cord from the external TAD into the EXT. jack. (Make sure this cord is connected to the TAD at the TAD's telephone line jack, and not its handset jack.)

f Set your external TAD to four rings or

less. (The machine's Ring Delay setting does not apply.)

g Record the outgoing message on your

external TAD.

h Set the TAD to answer calls. i Set the Receive Mode to

External TAD. (See Choose the correct Receive Mode on page 53.)

Recording an outgoing message (OGM) on the external TAD 6

Timing is important in recording this message. The way you record this message will affect both manual and automatic fax reception.

a Record 5 seconds of silence at the

beginning of your message. (This allows your machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

d Carefully guide the telephone line cord

into the cable channel and out the back of the machine.

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 l 51 and Start.”

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 re-record the OGM to include it.

Telephone services and external devices

Multi-line connections (PBX) 6

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

Connecting an external or extension telephone 6

You can connect a separate telephone to your machine as shown in the diagram below.

Connect the telephone line cord to the jack labeled EXT inside the machine.

Before you connect the external telephone, remove the protective cap (3) from the EXT. jack.

NOTE

Using external and extension telephones 6

Using extension telephones

If you answer a fax call at an extension telephone, you can make your machine receive the fax by pressing the Fax Receive Code l 51.

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at an extension telephone by pressing the Telephone Answer Code #51. (See F/T Ring Time (Fax/Tel mode only) on page 56.)

Using an external telephone (connected to the EXT. jack of the machine)

If you answer a fax call at the external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Fax Start and choosing Receive.

You can also use the Fax Receive Code l 51.

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at the external telephone by pressing Pickup.

Using a non-Brother cordless external telephone 6

If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the machine 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 Pickup to send the call to the cordless handset.

Using remote codes 6

Fax Receive Code 6

If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, you can tell your machine to receive it by dialing the Fax Receive Code l 51. Wait for the chirping sounds and then replace the handset. (See Easy Receive on page 57.)

If you answer a fax call at the external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine, you can make the machine receive the fax by pressing Fax Start and choosing Receive.

If you answer a call and no one is on the line:

You should assume that you're receiving a manual fax.

Press l 51 and wait for the chirp or until the Touchscreen shows Receiving, and then hang up.

You can also use the Easy Receive feature to make your machine automatically take the call. (See Easy Receive on page 57.)

Telephone Answer Code 6

If you receive a voice call and the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will start to sound the F/T (pseudo/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).

If the machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, you can take the call at the external telephone connected to the EXT. jack of the machine by pressing Pickup.
