Advice for Preparation and Simple Use Guide

Choosing a Location

Place the machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the machine near a telephone wall socket and a standard earthed electrical socket, grounded power outlet.

Avoid placing the machine where it may be knocked. Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not connect the machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers as disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect the machine 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. Ensure the airflow from the fan on the right hand side of the machine is not impeded.

• We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the product against damage caused by a lightning strike.

• Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

• Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

AND SIMPLE USE

PREPARATION

Connecting the Power Cord

• This machine must be fitted with an earthed plug.

• Since the machine is earthed via the mains plug, you can protect yourself

from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone network by keeping the power to the machine on when you connect it to a telephone line. Similarly, you can protect yourself when you want to move the machine, by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the power cord.

Preparation and Simple Use Guide 3

IMPORTANT: If you need to remove the moulded mains plug in order to fit an appropriate type, you must discard the moulded plug immediately having cut it off, in order that it is not inadvertently inserted into a live socket, thus presenting a shock hazard. The wires in the mains lead of this appliance are coloured in accordance with the following code.

• Green-and-yellow : Earth

• Blue : Neutral

• Brown : Live

As the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured green-and-yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol or coloured green or green-and-yellow. The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured black. The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter “L” or coloured red.

Memory Storage

In the event of a power failure, all settings in the GENERAL SETUP, SETUP RECEIVE, SETUP SEND, SET QUICK-DIAL, REPORT SETTING, REMOTE FAX OPT and MISCELLANEOUS functions are stored permanently and fax sending and receiving data are

stored for several days.

Multi-Line Connections (PABXs)

Most offices use a central telephone system, or PABX. The machine will work with most PABX or key systems that allow a two-wire analogue connection. However, we recommend that you have a separate telephone line for the machine. You can then leave the machine in Fax Only Mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.

If you are installing the machine to work with a PABX:

It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances with a PABX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your PABX.

If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended that the Receive Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.

The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialling.

Using Extension Telephones

It may be that your premises are already wired with parallel extension telephones, or you intend to add extension telephones to your line, in addition to the machine. While the simplest arrangement is straightforward parallel connection, there are some reasons as to why this arrangement will cause unsatisfactory service, the most obvious of which is inadvertent interruption of a facsimile transmission by someone picking up an extension telephone in order to make an outgoing call. Additionally, remote activation 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.

Such problems can easily be eliminated however, if you arrange modification of your extension wiring circuit, such that extension devices are connected “downstream” of the machine, in a master/slave configuration. In such a configuration, this 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 off-hook detection.”

The inadvisable configuration is shown in figure 1 below, and the recommended master/slave configuration is shown in figure 2.

This new connection configuration can be arranged by your contacting BT, Kingston upon Hull Telecommunications, your PABX 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 inserted into the modular socket of the white “T”-shaped connector provided as part of the line cord assembly.

Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD)

Sequence

You might choose to connect an additional answering machine. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls. The machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear the CNG tones, the machine will not answer the call, and messages can be left on the TAD by callers in the normal way.

The TAD must answer within a maximum of four rings. However, we recommend two rings as the TAD setting. The machine 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 instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing message. Do not use a “toll- saver” ring setting on the TAD.

It is important that the TAD is connected via the EXT socket on the machine or on the line jack unit. Do not use a line doubler on the line jack as this can cause answering problems.

Connections

You may connect an external TAD to the machine, as shown below.

TAD

(Example for the U.K.)

Set your external TAD to two rings or less.

Record the outgoing message (see next page).

Set the TAD to answer calls.

Set the Receive Mode to TAD:ANSWER MACH. by pressing Receive Mode.

TAD

Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

We recommend the outgoing message (OGM) is no longer than 20 seconds.

Allow 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows the fax to detect the calling tone prior to OGM, so reception can be faster.)

We recommend that you end your OGM by giving your Remote Activation Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:

“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax manually by pressing 51 and Start”

Please note that some faxes that are sent manually cannot be received automatically because some fax machines do not send a fax tone if the call is manually dialled. In these cases you must inform callers that they must enter the remote activation code to send a fax.

Connecting an External or Extension Telephone

You can connect a separate telephone to the machine, as shown below.

Select Receive Mode

There are four different receive modes for the machine. You may choose the mode that best suits your needs by pressing Receive Mode repeatedly until the screen displays the setting you want to use. You will need to connect an external telephone to select Fax/Tel (F/T) or Manual Mode.

Receive Mode For

1. FAX ONLY Use this function if you want to receive fax messages only (no

telephone calls). The machine should be connected on its own line. The machine automatically answers every call as a fax call. You cannot receive a voice call, but, if you have connected an External telephone, you can still dial out and make voice calls. (This setting is recommended if the machine is on its own dedicated line.)

2. FAX/TEL (F/T)

(with an External Telephone)

3. TAD:ANSWER MACH.

(with an External Answering Machine)

The TAD setting works only with an external telephone answering device (TAD). Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time do not work in this setting.

4. MANUAL

(with an External Telephone)

Use this function if you expect to receive many fax messages and few phone calls. The machine automatically answers every call. If the call is a fax, it prints the fax. If the call is not a fax, it signals you with an F/T pseudo-ring, different from the phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. If you select this setting, you will need to set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time features (on the following pages).

This is the only setting in which you can use an external answering machine. Your telephone answering device answers every call. Once the external telephone answering device (TAD) answers, the machine listens for fax tones. If it detects fax tones, fax messages are printed.

Use this function if you receive many telephone calls and few fax messages. You must answer all calls yourself. If you hear fax tones, wait until the machine takes over the call automatically, then hang up (see Fax Detect function).

Broadcasting

Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple fax numbers. Using the Menu/Set key, you can include up to 8 One Touch locations (FAX-8070P), up to 100 Speed Dial locations, and up to 50 manually dialled numbers (maximum of 158 (FAX-8070P) or 150 (MFC-

9070) locations if you did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit card numbers). However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs in memory and numbers of locations used for broadcasting. If you broadcast to more than the maximum locations available, you will not be able to setup transmissions using dual access and the timer.

The easiest way to broadcast is to first combine frequently used One Touch (FAX-8070P) and Speed Dial numbers as a Group, which uses up a One Touch key (FAX-8070P) or a Speed Dial #. (Remember, you can have up to six Groups and Quick Dial numbers can be included in more than one Group). Then by pressing Menu/Set between each location, you can include One Touch (FAX8070P), Speed Dial, Groups, and manual dialling (using the dial pad) in the same broadcast. Use the Search/Speed Dial to help you choose the numbers easily.

After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed automatically to let you know the results.

Insert the document face down in the ADF.

Enter a number using One Touch (FAX-8070P), Speed Dial, Search, Group number or the dial pad.

Example: Group number

■ To stop the broadcasting in progress, press Stop/Exit. The display asks if you want to cancel all locations or just the location that is being sent to.

■ Enter the long dialling sequence numbers as you normally would, but keep in mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of locations you can call becomes limited.

■ If the line is busy or a connection could not be made for some other reasons while broadcasting, the machine will redial the number automatically.

■ If the memory is full, press Stop/Exit to abort the job or press Fax Start to send the portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has been scanned).

Setting Up Groups for Broadcasting

Groups allow you to send the same fax message to many fax numbers by pressing only one One Touch Group key and Fax Start (FAX-8070P) or five keys (Search/Speed Dial, #, the two-digit location, and Fax Start). You can store up to six of the Groups on your One Touch keys (FAX8070P) or Speed Dial, and then broadcast by pressing only the One Touch key (FAX-8070P) or Search/Speed Dial, #, the two-digit location (and Fax Start). First, you will need to store each fax number as a One Touch or Speed Dial number. Then, you can combine them into a Group. Each Group uses up a One Touch or Speed Dial number. You can have up to six Groups, or you can assign up to 107 (FAX-8070P) or 99 (MFC-9070) numbers to one large Group. (See Storing One Touch Dial Numbers (For FAX-8070P Only), page 21 and Storing Speed Dial Numbers, page 22.)

Advanced Receiving

Operation from an External or Extension Telephone

An external phone is a telephone that is plugged into the machine (either into the machine’s EXT socket or into the back of the connector that plugs into the telephone wall socket).

An extension phone is another phone on the same phone number as the machine, but plugged into a different telephone wall socket. For example, the machine may be connected to a phone line in your study, and you may have another phone on the same line (and same phone number) in your kitchen. This feature enables you to answer the phone in the kitchen if it rings while you are making a coffee, knowing that you can transfer the call to the machine if the incoming call is a fax.

If you answer a fax call on an external or extension phone, you can make the machine take over by using the Activation Code. When you press the Activation Code 5 1, the machine starts to receive a fax. If you set FAX DETECT to ON, you don’t have to press 5 1, just hold the handset and wait for several seconds, (See Fax Detect (with an External or Extension Telephone), page 29.)

If the machine answers a voice call and F/T pseudo-rings for you to take over, use the Deactivation Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone. The Deactivation Code is used only in Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode. (You have to set Remote Activation to ON in Menu/Set, 2, 1, 4 to use 5 1 or # 5 1.)

If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones (chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVING) before you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.)

If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax message is being received, you may disrupt the transmission or render some portions unreadable.

ADVANCED FAX USE

◆ 5 1—From an extension phone, or an external phone, 5 1 will set the machine in

receive mode.

◆ # 5 1—From an extension phone, # 5 1 can stop the machine receiving. This is effective in

F/T and Fax Detect modes.

The Remote Activation Code can also be used by your callers. When you are using an external TAD, your outgoing message (OGM) should end with the statement “to send a fax, press 5 1”. (See Outgoing Message (OGM) of External TAD, page 7.)

For Fax/Tel Mode Only

When the machine is in Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (F/T pseudo-ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you’re at the machine, you can lift the external telephone’s handset and press Tel to answer.

If you’re at an extension phone, you will need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time and press # 5 1 between the F/T pseudo-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 5 1.

Advanced Receiving 45

Switching ON Remote Activation and Changing Remote Codes

Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset Activation Code is 5 1. The preset Deactivation Code is # 5 1.

If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely, try changing the Activation Code from 5 1 to # # # and the Deactivation Code from # 5 1 to 1 1 1. You cannot use the same number for the Activation Code and the Deactivation Code and the Remoto Access Code.

To switch Remote Activation ON and change Remote Codes

Press Menu/Set, 2, 1, 4.

Press or to select ON (or OFF), and press Menu/Set when the screen displays the setting you want.

If you want to, enter a new Remote Activation Code, then press Menu/Set.

If you want to, enter a new Remote Deactivation Code, then press Menu/Set.

Press Stop/Exit.

Telephone Services

BT Call Sign (For U.K. Only)

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 the machine.

The machine has a BT Call Sign compatible distinctive ringing function, allowing you to dedicate a second phone number (on the same phone line) just for receiving faxes.

You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax number, make sure you reset this function.

• To have your external TAD answer only the main number, the machine must be in Manual Mode.

• In FAX/TEL (F/T) or FAX ONLY mode, the machine will answer all numbers on the phone line.

To enable the machine to work with BT Call Sign

Enhanced Memory Management

The machine has its own Data Compression Technology, which automatically compresses graphic data and downloads font data efficiently into the MFC’s memory. You can avoid memory errors and print most full-page, 600 dpi graphic and text data, including larger fonts, with the machine’s standard memory.

Printing From Your PC

Multi-Purpose Sheet Feeder

The machine’s multi-purpose sheet feeder can feed plain paper, envelopes, and organizer paper, post card, labels and transparencies. When the machine receives data from your computer, it begins the print process by loading paper from the multi-purpose sheet feeder.

■ Select the print command from your PC. Your PC sends a print command and data to the machine. If there are more pages, the machine begins

to print the next page automatically.

PRINTER/SCANNER

You may select the proper paper source, paper size, and orientation in your application software.

If your application software does not support your custom paper size, select the next larger paper size. Then adjust the print area by changing the right and left margins in your application software.

Using the machine as a Printer (For MFC-9070 Only) 59

Two-Sided Printing (Manual Duplex)

The supplied printer drivers for Windows® 95/98/98SE/Me and Windows NT® Workstation Version 4.0 support manual duplex printing. (For more information, see the Help screen for the printer driver.)

The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper first. Then, the Windows driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well or you may get a paper jam. Very thin or very thick paper is not recommended. If the paper “double-feeds” (sends two sheets at once), hold the stack of paper except for the front sheet while the paper is feeding.

When you use manual duplexing, it is possible that a paper jam may occur or the printer quality might not be satisfactory.

Loading Envelopes

If you load envelopes into the Multi-purpose sheet feeder, make sure they are inserted in the direction shown below.

60 Chapter 11

Load the envelopes with the lever down

Paper Tray

The machine ejects paper with printed surfaces face down into the paper tray at the front of the machine. When you use transparencies, remove each sheet immediately after printing, to prevent a paper jam or curled sheets.

Reset Key

Press this key to clear data from the memory.

Simultaneous Printing/Faxing

The machine can print data from your computer while sending or receiving a fax, or while scanning information into the computer. However, when the machine is copying or receiving a fax on paper, it pauses the PC printing operation, and resumes when copying or fax receiving is complete. Fax sending continues during PC printing.

Organizing Your Items in Folders

PaperPort® has an easy-to-use filing system for organizing your items. The filing system consists of folders and items that you select to view in Desktop View. An item can be a PaperPort non-PaperPort

item:

and view their items in Desktop View.

■ You can simply drag and drop an item onto a folder. When the folder is highlighted, release the

mouse button and the item is stored in that folder.

■ Folders can be “nested”—that is, stored in other folders.

■ When you double-click a folder, its items (both PaperPort

MAX files and other files) appear

on the Desktop.

■ You can also use Windows

Explorer to manage the folders and items shown in Desktop View.

Resolution

Select the scanning resolution from the Resolution drop down list. Higher resolutions take more memory and transfer time, but can achieve a finer scanned image.

When the setting is True Grey, 200 x 100 dpi and 200 x 400 dpi is not available.

Using ScanSoft™ PaperPort® for Brother and ScanSoft™ TextBridge® 89

Scan Type

Set the image Type to Black & White for text or line art. For photographic images, set the image type to Grey (Error Diffusion) or True Grey.

Grey (Error Diffusion) is used for documents that contain photographic images or graphics. (Error Diffusion is a method for creating simulated grey images by placing black dots in a specific matrix

instead of true grey dots.) True Grey mode is used for documents containing photographic images or graphics. This mode

requires the most memory and longest transfer time.

Brightness

Adjusting the brightness settings to obtain the best image. The Brother MFC Software Suite offers 100 brightness settings (-50 to 50). The default value is 0, representing an “average” setting.

You can set the brightness level by dragging the slidebar to the right to lighten the image or to the left to darken the image. You can also type a value in the box to set the settings.

If the scanned image is too light, set a lower brightness value and scan the document again. If the image is too dark, set a higher brightness value and scan the document again.

Contrast

The contrast setting is adjustable only when you have selected one of the grey scale settings, but it is not available when Black & White is selected as the grey Scale.

Increasing the contrast level (by dragging the slidebar to the right) emphasizes dark and light areas of the Image, while decreasing the contrast level (by dragging the slidebar to the left) reveals more detail in grey areas. Instead of using the slidebar, you can type a value in the box to set the contrast.

After you select a custom size, you can adjust the scanning area further by using the left mouse button to drag the dotted outline of the scanning area. This is required when you want to crop an image when scanning.

When scanning photographs or other images for use in a word processor or other graphics application, you should try different settings for the contrast, mode and resolution to see which settings best suit your needs.

PreScanning an Image

PreScanning allows you to scan an image quickly at a low resolution. A thumbnail version of the image will appear in the Scanning Area. This is only a preview of the image so you can see how it will look. The PreScan button is used to preview an image for cropping any unwanted portions from the image. When you are satisfied with the preview, select the Start button to scan the image.

Insert the document face down in the ADF.

Select the PreScan button: The entire document will be scanned into the PC and will appear in the Scanning Area of the
