About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious.
You’ll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send
and receive faxes easily.
Custom Features
Do You Have Voice Mail on the Phone Line?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line on which you will install your new fax
machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will conflict
with each other while receiving incoming calls.
Why Should There Be Trouble?
Since both fax machines and Voice Mail pick up the line at the number of rings you
have set, each of them has the ability to keep the other from receiving calls. For
example, if your Voice Mail is set to answer after two rings and your fax machine is
set to answer after four, your Voice Mail will keep your fax machine from receiving
faxes. If you set Voice Mail and the Brother machine to answer at the same number
of rings, there is no way of knowing which one will answer first. It is important to
remember that neither Voice Mail nor the fax machine can pass the call back to the
other after the call has been answered.
How Can You Avoid Possible Problems?
A very good way to avoid problems like the one mentioned previously is to get a
second phone number on your present phone line. Many people with Voice Mail opt
for this choice, which is called “Distinctive Ring,” and they are very satisfied with it.
Another way to avoid possible problems is to replace your Voice Mail with an
answering machine. Your Brother fax machine is designed to work in tandem with an
answering machine or TAD (telephone answering device).
Fax Tones and Handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones (CNG
tones)—soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when you dial,
and then press Fax Start, and they continue for about 60 seconds after 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 know if you are receiving a fax message.
1 - 4
I N T R O D U C T I O N
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
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 LCD shows
RECEIVE. If your fax machine is set to the FAX ONLY Mode, it will answer every
call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs up, your fax
machine continues to send the “chirps” for about 40 seconds, and the LCD continues
to display RECEIVE. To cancel the receiving mode, press Stop/Exit.
When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL Mode, the fax machine listens for CNG
tones and then responds with receiving tones.
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
machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the fax. The handshake
cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones only last for about 60
seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s important for the receiving machine
to answer the call in as few rings as possible.
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 instructions for connecting a TAD to your fax machine.
Error Correction Mode (ECM)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax 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 fax machine for this feature to work.
Test Sheet Procedure and Product Registration
(For USA Only)
After programming your Station ID, please fill out the TEST SHEET included with
your fax machine, and then fax it to Brother’s Automated Fax Response System as
your first transmission. This will verify that your fax machine is properly installed. To
get a response, you must have set up your Station ID.
When your TEST SHEET is received, a Confirmation Sheet and Product Registration
form will be sent back to your machine. Please fill out the form and return it to
complete your registration.

Location and Connections
Caution
I Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
I We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the
product against lightning storms.
I Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed
for a wet location.
I Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone
line has been disconnected at the network interface.
I Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
I Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There
may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
I Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
I For PLUG CABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.
Choosing a Location
Place your fax machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is
free of vibration and shocks. Locate the fax machine near a telephone jack and a
standard, grounded power outlet.
I Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area.
I Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators.
I Do not expose the fax machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust.
I Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or
automatic timers. Disruption of power can wipe out information in the unit’s
memory.
I Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large
appliances or other equipment that might disrupt the power supply.
I Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or the base units of cordless phones.

WARNING
I This machine must be grounded using a three-prong plug.
I Since the machine is grounded through the power outlet, you can protect yourself from
potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone line by keeping the power
to your machine on when you connect it to a telephone line. When you want to move
your machine, protect yourself by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the
power cord.
I Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that you use a
quality surge protection device on the AC power line as well as on the telephone line,
or unplug the lines during a lightning storm.

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 fax 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 fax machine on any of the other
numbers; when the other lines are busy and a second fax call is received, the fax call
is transferred to a line that does not have a fax machine. Your fax machine 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 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 phone and
see if it can access both lines. If it can, you must separate the line for your machine.
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 Brother 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 triplex adapter.

Installing Brother Machine, External Two-Line TAD and Two-Line
Telephone
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 Brother machine 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 machine and two for your
external two-line TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
1
2
Place the two-line TAD and two-line telephone next to your Brother 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.
3
4
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
two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT. jack on the back of the machine.

Two-Line External TAD

You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two ways
to add a two-line telephone to the fax 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)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to
connect the fax machine 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 fax machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the
fax machine. You can then leave the fax machine in FAX ONLY mode to receive
faxes any time of day or night.
If the fax machine 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
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If your
line has more than two wires, proper connection of the fax machine cannot be made.

It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all 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 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 dialing telephone service.

Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device
(TAD)
Sequence
You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you have an
external TAD on the same telephone line as the fax machine, the TAD answers all
calls. The fax machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax
machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the fax
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
fax 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. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external
answering machine if it exceeds 4 rings.
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line—your fax machine and
TAD will both try to control the line.

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

Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
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 5 1 and Start.”
Connecting an External Telephone
Your fax machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone.
However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or TAD) directly to your fax
machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the
left side of the fax machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the LCD shows EXT. TEL IN USE, and, if
the fax machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call and switch
to the fax machine, press Speaker phone.

User-Friendly Programming
We have designed your fax machine with on-screen programming using
navigation keys. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all
the menu selections your fax machine has to offer.
Since your programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen
prompts to help you program your fax machine. All you need to do is follow the
prompts as they guide you through the menu selections and programming
options. Additionally, you can program settings more quickly by pressing
Menu/Set and the menu number using the dial pad.
Menu Selection Table
You can probably perform most of these programming operations without this
Owner’s Manual. To help you understand the menu selections and options that
are found in the FAX programs, use the Menu Table on page 3-3.
You can also program your fax machine by pressing Menu/Set followed by the
menu number. For example: to set VOLUME AMPLIFY to ON, press
or
Menu/Set, 1, 4 and
to select ON, and then press Menu/Set.
Alternating Displays
Sometimes, the LCD alternates between the active setting and a help message
giving brief instructions about how to proceed. The display you’ll probably see
most often is shown below. When you place an original in the Automatic
Document Feeder (ADF), it appears to tell you that you can dial a number and
send a fax, or you can make a copy.

this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay.
You can let the fax machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax
call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine signals you with a
double-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the fax machine continues for

Advanced Receiving Operations
Operation from External or Extension Telephone
If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the EXT.
jack, you can make your fax machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When
you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax.
If the fax machine answers a voice call and double-rings for you to take over, use the
Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a fax. At the fax
machine phone, press Fax Start, then hang up. 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 LCD shows RECEIVE) before
you hang up. (Your caller will have to press Fax Start to send the fax.)
For FAX/TEL Mode Only
When the fax machine is in FAX/TEL mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time
(double-ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you’re at the fax machine, you can lift
the handset to answer.
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the F/T Ring Time,
and then press # 5 1 between the double-rings. If no one is on the line, or if someone
wants to send you a fax, send the call back to the fax machine by pressing
5 1.
Changing Remote Codes
Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset Fax Receive
Code is 5 1. The preset Telephone Answer Code is # 5 1.
If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD remotely, try

Polling
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can use your
fax machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone poll your machine.
All parties involved in polling need to set up their fax machines to accommodate
polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a fax, they pay for the call; if
you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax, you pay for the call.
Some fax machines do not respond to the Polling feature.

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 enter it, as soon as you press Fax Start. Make sure you select CHAIN as
the type of the number when you store it as a One Touch or Speed Dial. (See Storing
For example:
You store “555”on One Touch key 3 and “7000”on One Touch key 4. If you press One
Touch 3, 4 and Fax Start you will dial “555-7000”. To 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 3, and then
press 7, 0, 0, 1 using the dial pad.
If you must wait for another dial tone or signal at any point in the dialing sequence,
store a pause there in the number by pressing Pause/Redial.
Pause after dialing Speed Dial numbers for the name to be displayed before you enter
the next portion of the dialing sequence.

Telephone Services
Custom Features
Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring, Caller ID and Call Waiting/Caller ID
telephone services offered by some telephone companies.
If you have Voice Mail, RingMaster, an answering service, an alarm system or other
custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the operation of
your fax machine.
If you have Voice Mail on your phone line, please read the following carefully.
Distinctive Ring
The term “Distinctive Ring” is used by Brother to identify a telephone company
service that is given many names, depending on the telephone company you are using.
For example, this service may be called SmartRing, RingMaster, Teen-Ring, Ident-a-
Call or Ident-a-Ring.
What Does Your Telephone Company’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
Your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service allows more than one number to
be on same phone line. If you need more than one phone number, it is an
inexpensive alternative to paying for an additional 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 fax machine.
Please consult your telephone company for availability and rates.
Note
What Does Brother’s “Distinctive Ring” Do?
The Brother machine has a Distinctive Ring feature that allows you to use your fax
machine to take full advantage of the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service.
You can dedicate the new phone number on your line to receive only faxes.
You must purchase your telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service before you
Note
program the Brother machine to work with it.

Do You Have Voice Mail?
If you have Voice Mail on the phone line you will install your new fax machine on,
there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will conflict with each
other while receiving incoming calls. However, this Distinctive Ring feature allows
the use of more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the fax
machine can coexist peacefully. If each one has a separate phone number, neither
will interfere with the other’s work.
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
provided, so your fax machine 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, make sure you
reset this menu selection.
Before You Choose the Ring Pattern to Register
You can register only one Distinctive Ring pattern with the fax machine. Some ring
patterns cannot be registered. Please refer to some popular ring pattern examples that
will be provided from the telephone company in the USA and Canada that are shown
in the Brother compatibility table below.
Ring
Rings
Pattern
1
2

4
long - long
short - long - short
short - short - long
very long (normal pattern)
If the ring pattern the telephone company provided cannot be registered by the fax,
please check for other available ring pattern choices from the telephone
company.
Note
I The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
I The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because the fax must « listen »
to the ring pattern (compare it to the pattern that was “registered”).
I If you program the fax machine correctly, it will recognize the registered ring pattern
of the “fax number” within two ring patterns and automatically answer with a fax tone.
When the “voice number” is called, the fax machine will not interrupt the call.

Very Important
If you have Voice Mail or a TAD (Telephone Answering Device) and want to keep
one of your phone numbers dedicated only to fax calls, you must leave the fax machine
in MANUAL mode at all times while using the Distinctive Ring feature. Here’s why:
Manual mode will never pick up a call by itself, since it is «Neutral ». When the fax
machine is in this « neutral » mode, the Distinctive Ring feature can be activated. The
Distinctive Ring feature is actually an answering mode. So, do not activate FAX
ONLY mode or FAX /TEL mode while using Distinctive Ring; otherwise, the fax
machine will answer calls for all the numbers.

Caller ID
The Caller ID feature of this fax machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service
offered by many local telephone companies. After at least two rings, the LCD shows
the telephone number of your caller (or up to 16 characters of the name, if available).
Once you pick up the handset the Caller ID information disappears from the LCD, but
the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
CALL PICKUP

Caller ID Log
Your fax machine stores up to 30 of the last Caller IDs received into the fax machine’s
memory in the Caller ID Log. When the thirty-first call comes in, information about
the first call is erased. You can print the report or scroll through Caller ID information
to review those calls made to your fax machine.

If You Are Having Difficulty with Your Fax Machine
If you think there is a problem with your fax machine, make a copy first. If the copy
looks good, the problem is probably not your fax machine. Check the problems below
and follow the troubleshooting tips.
Printing or Receiving Faxes
Condensed Print and Horizontal Streaks;
Top and Bottom of Sentences Cut Off
If your copy looks good, you probably had a bad connection, with static or
interference on the phone line. If the copy looks bad, call Brother Customer
Service at 1-800-284-4329 (in USA), 1-877-BROTHER (in Canada) or
(514) 685-6464 (in Montreal).
Vertical Black Lines When Receiving
The sender’s scanner may be dirty. Ask the sender to make a copy to see if the
problem is with the sending machine. Try receiving from another fax machine.
If the problem continues, call Brother Customer Service at 1-800-284-4329
(in USA), 1-877-BROTHER (in Canada) or (514) 685-6464 (in Montreal).

Phone Line or Connections
Fax Machine Does Not Answer When Called
Make sure the fax machine is in the correct receiving mode for your setup
(either FAX ONLY, FAX/TEL or MSG CTR). Check for a dial tone. If
possible, call your fax machine to hear it answer. If there is still no answer,
check the telephone line cord connection.
Connect a standard telephone handset to the fax machine’s telephone jack. If
there is no ringing when you call your fax machine, call your telephone
company to check the line.
Telephone Answering Device (TAD) Does Not Answer When Called
Connect the telephone line cord from your TAD to the back of the fax machine,
in the jack labeled EXT. Make sure the TAD is set to answer calls.
No Dial Tone on the Handset
Press Speaker phone—OR—Lift the handset. If you don’t hear a dial tone,
check telephone line cord connections at the fax machine and wall jack. Check
that the handset is connected to the fax machine’s handset jack. Test the wall
jack with another single line telephone. If there is no dial tone at the wall outlet,
call your telephone company.
The Caller ID Does Not Display after the Call Waiting Signal
The Caller ID signal is sent ten seconds after the Call Waiting Signal and
speaking may interfere with it. When you hear the Call Waiting signal, ask the
other party to hold while you answer the call. Then stop speaking until you see
the Caller ID on the LCD.
Sending Faxes
Poor Transmitting Quality
Make a copy to verify the fax machine’s scanner operation.
Dialing Does Not Work
Check all line cord connections, and make sure the curled handset cord is not in
the EXT jack.
Check power cord connection.
Send a manual fax by pressing Speaker phone or by lifting the handset and
dialing the number. Wait to hear fax receiving tones before pressing Fax Start.
Vertical Black Lines When Sending
Use your fax machine to make a copy. If the copy shows the same problem, the
scanner area is dirty. Lift the top cover and check the original path. Clean the
scanner’s white roller and the glass strip under the roller using isopropyl alcohol
.

Handling Incoming Calls
Double-Ring in FAX/TEL Mode
The fax machine knows the incoming call is not a fax so it is signaling you to
answer the telephone call. Pick up the fax machine handset or answer from an
extension phone, and then press your fax machine’s Telephone Answer Code
Transferring a Call to the Fax Machine
If you have answered the fax machine handset, press Fax Start and hang up
immediately.
If you answered at an extension phone, press your three-digit Fax Receive Code
(default setting is 51). When your fax machine answers, hang up.
Fax Machine “Hears” Voice as FAX Tone
If your fax machine is set to Easy Receive ON, it is more sensitive to sounds.
Your fax machine may mistakenly interpret certain voices or music on the line
as a calling fax machine and respond with fax receiving tones. Deactivate the
fax by pressing #51 if you are at an extension phone or press Stop/Exit if you
are at the fax machine or an external phone.
Try avoiding this problem by turning Easy Receive to OFF.
Transmission Verification Report Prints “Result: NG”
There is probably temporary noise or static on the phone line. Try sending the
fax again. If the problem continues, call the telephone company to check your
phone line.
Custom Features on a Single Line
If you have RingMaster, Voice Mail, an answering machine, alarm system or
any other custom feature on a single phone line with your fax machine, it may
create a problem sending or receiving fax data.
For Example :
Your Brother machine handles the Caller ID and Call Waiting/Caller ID
subscriber services. However, if you subscribe to another custom service
and its signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or
receiving a fax, the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the fax
data. Brother’s ECM 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, a separate line with no custom features is recommended.
Using Call Waiting/Caller ID:
If you are having a telephone conversation and a fax communication
signal comes through on Call Waiting Caller ID, you can verify that the
second call is a fax by switching to it. You have the option to receive the
fax call, by asking the first caller to hang up to clear the line.

These machines are made for use in the USA or CANADA only. We can not
recommend using them overseas because it may violate the
Telecommunications Regulations of that country and the power requirements
of your fax machine may not be compatible with the power available in foreign
countries. Using USA or CANADA models overseas is at your own risk
and will void your warranty.
