NOTE
Important information and setup instructions for the telephone services are in the Online User’s Guide. To download the Online User’s Guide, visit at solutions.brother.com/manuals and go to your model’s Manual page.
Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer.
Features like VoIP, 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.
If you have voice mail service and your Brother machine on the same line, they will conflict with one another when receiving incoming calls. If you want the Brother machine to share a single line with your voice mail, you must either put the Brother machine in Manual mode or subscribe to your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service.
For more information and setup instructions:
(See How to choose the correct Receive Mode on page 33.)
(See Distinctive Ring on page 27.)
(See Online User’s Guide: Voice Mail.)
Distinctive Ring is a telephone-company service that allows you to have two different phone numbers on a single line. Each telephone number has its own ring pattern. You can program your Brother machine to automatically receive faxes on one of the two numbers.
For more information and setup instructions:
(See Online User’s Guide: Distinctive Ring.)
(See Online User’s Guide: Register the Distinctive Ring Pattern.)
(See Online User’s Guide: Turn off Distinctive Ring.)
VoIP is a phone system that uses an Internet 9 connection instead of a traditional telephone
line. Telephone providers frequently bundle VoIP with Internet and cable services.
Your Brother machine may not work with some VoIP systems.
For more information and setup instructions:
(See Online User’s Guide: Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP/Telephone Line Interference).)
(See Telephone Line Interference or VoIP System on page 69.)

Chapter 9
Your Brother machine can automatically receive faxes when it shares a line with an external TAD. To receive faxes successfully, you must connect the TAD to the jack labeled EXT. on the Brother machine and set the machine’s Receive Mode to External TAD. When you record the outgoing message on your external TAD, we recommend recording 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of message, and limiting your speaking to
20 seconds.
For more information and setup instructions:
(See Online User’s Guide: External TAD (Telephone Answering Device).)
(See Online User’s Guide: Connect an External TAD.)
(See Online User’s Guide: Record an Outgoing Message (OGM) on the External TAD.)
You can connect a separate telephone to the jack labeled EXT. on the Brother machine. If you answer an incoming fax on the telephone, you can make the machine receive it by pressing l 5 1, or by pressing Fax Start, and then choosing Receive.
If you answer an incoming fax on an extension telephone that shares the line with the Brother machine, you can transfer the fax to the machine by pressing l 5 1.

The correct Receive Mode is determined by the external devices and telephone subscriber services (such as Voice Mail and Distinctive Ring) 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 Online User’s Guide:
Distinctive Ring.)
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 Online User’s Guide: Voice Mail.)
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 Online User’s Guide: External TAD (Telephone Answering Device).)

the telephone wall jack and the LINE jack inside the machine. |
|
|
|
|
|
(Canada only) Change the Tone/Pulse setting. |
|
|
(See Online User’s Guide: Set Tone or Pulse Dialing Mode.) |
|
|
|
|
|
Send a manual fax by pressing Hook and dialing the number. Wait to hear |
|
|
fax-receiving tones before pressing Fax Start. |
|
|
If there is no dial tone, connect a known-working telephone and telephone line |
|
|
cord to the jack. Then lift the external telephone's handset and listen for a dial tone. |
|
|
If there is still no dial tone, ask your telephone company to check the line and/or |
|
|
wall jack. |
|
|
|
|
|
If you subscribe to DSL, VoIP, or MagicJack services, contact your service |
|
|
provider for connection instructions. |
|
|
|
|
The machine does not answer |
Make sure the machine is in the correct Receive Mode for your setup. |
|
when called. |
(See How to choose the correct Receive Mode on page 33.) Check for a dial tone. |
|
|
If possible, call your machine to hear it answer. If there is still no answer, check |
|
|
that the telephone line cord is plugged into the telephone wall jack and the LINE |
B |
|
jack inside the machine. If there is no ringing when you call your machine, ask your |
|
|
|
|
|
telephone company to check the line. |

Receiving Faxes
Difficulty |
Suggestions |
Cannot receive a fax. |
Make sure your machine has a dial tone by pressing Hook in Fax mode. If you |
|
hear static or interference on your fax line, call your local telephone provider. |
|
Check all line cord connections. Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged into |
|
the telephone wall jack and the LINE jack inside the machine. If you subscribe to |
|
DSL, VoIP or MagicJack services, call your service provider for connection |
|
instructions. |
|
If you have problems due to possible interference on the telephone line, you can |
|
change the compatibility setting. (See Telephone Line Interference or VoIP |
|
System on page 69.) |
|
|
|
Make sure the machine is in the correct Receive Mode. This is determined by the |
|
external devices and telephone subscriber services you have on the same line as |
|
the Brother machine. (See How to choose the correct Receive Mode on page 33.) |
|
If you have a dedicated fax line and want your Brother machine to automatically |
|
answer all incoming faxes, select Fax Only mode. |
|
If your Brother machine shares a line with an external answering machine, select |
|
External TAD mode. In External TAD mode, your Brother machine will |
|
automatically receive incoming faxes and voice callers will be able to leave a |
|
message on your answering machine. |
|
If your Brother machine shares the line with a Voice Mail subscriber service, |
|
see Online User’s Guide: Voice Mail. |
|
If your Brother machine is on a line with the Distinctive Ring subscriber service, |
|
see Online User’s Guide: Distinctive Ring. |
|
If your Brother machine shares a line with other telephones and you want it to |
|
automatically answer all incoming faxes, select Fax/Tel mode. In Fax/Tel |
|
mode, your Brother machine will automatically receive faxes and produce a |
|
pseudo/double-ring to alert you to answer voice calls. |
|
If you do not want your Brother machine to automatically answer incoming faxes, |
|
select Manual mode. In Manual mode, you must answer every incoming call and |
|
activate the machine to receive faxes. |
|
Another device or service at your location may be answering the call before your |
|
Brother machine answers. To test this, lower the Ring Delay setting: |
|
If the Receive Mode is set to Fax Only or Fax/Tel, reduce the Ring Delay |
|
to 1 ring. (See Ring Delay on page 36.) |
|
If the Receive Mode is set to External TAD, reduce the number of rings |
|
programmed on your answering machine to 2. |
|
If the Receive Mode is set to Manual, DO NOT adjust the Ring Delay setting. |
|
Have someone send you a test fax: |
|
If you received the test fax successfully, your machine is operating correctly. |
|
Remember to reset your Ring Delay or answering machine setting back to |
|
your original setting. If receiving problems recur after resetting the Ring Delay, |
|
then a person, device, or subscriber service is answering the fax call before |
|
the machine has a chance to answer. |
|
If you were not able to receive the fax, then another device or subscriber |
|
service may be interfering with your fax reception or there may be a problem |
|
with your fax line. |

|
|
correctly. |
|
|
|
|

plug the telephone line cord from your answering machine into the EXT. jack. |
|
|
|
3 Set your answering machine to answer within 4 rings. |
|

Sending a fax call to the machine. |
If you answered on an extension telephone, press your Fax Receive Code (the |

|
factory setting is l 5 1). If you answered on the external telephone (connected to |
||
|
the EXT. jack), press Fax Start, and then press Receive to receive the fax. |

|
When your machine answers, hang up. |
|
|
Custom features on a single line. |
If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, Caller ID, RingMaster, Voice Mail, |
||
|
an answering machine, an alarm system or other custom feature on a single |
|
|
|
telephone line with your machine, it may create a problem sending or receiving |
||
|
faxes. |
|
|
|
For example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or another custom service and its |
||
|
signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax, the |
||
|
signal can temporarily interrupt the fax. Brother's ECM (Error Correction Mode) |
||
|
feature should help overcome this problem. This condition is related to the |
|
|
|
telephone system industry and is common to all devices that send and receive |
|
|
|
information on a single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding a slight |
|
|
|
interruption is crucial to your business, we recommend using a separate |
|
|
|
telephone line with no custom features. |
