Choose the correct Receive Mode  
9
The correct Receive Mode is determined by the external devices and telephone subscriber services (Voice Mail,  
Distinctive Ring, etc.) you have (or will be using) on the same line as the Brother machine.  
For more information, see Using Receive Modes in chapter 5 of the Basic User’s Guide.  
If you are not using this machine for faxing, go to the next step.  
Will you be using a Distinctive Ring number for receiving faxes?  
Brother uses the term “Distinctive Ring” but telephone companies may have other names for this service such  
as Custom Ringing, RingMaster, Personalized Ring, Teen Ring, Ident-A-Call, and Smart Ring. See Distinctive  
Ring in chapter 6 of the Basic User’s Guide for instruction on setting up your machine using this feature.  
Will you be using Voicemail 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  
in chapter 6 of the Basic User’s Guide 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 TADas your receive mode. See  
the instructions below. For additional details, see Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device) in  
chapter 6 of the Basic User’s Guide.  
Will you be using your Brother machine on a dedicated fax line?  
Your machine automatically answers every call as a fax. Choose Fax Onlyas your receive mode. See the  
instructions below.  
Will you be using your Brother machine on the same line as your telephone?  
Do you want to receive voice calls and faxes automatically?  
The Fax/Telreceive mode is used when sharing the Brother machine and your telephone on the same  
line. Choose Fax/Telas your receive mode. See the instructions below. For additional information see  
Fax/Tel in chapter 5 of the Basic User’s Guide for instructions on setting up and using this receive mode.  
Important Note: You cannot receive voice messages on either Voice Mail or an answering machine  
when choosing the Fax/Telmode.  
Do you expect to receive very few faxes?  
Choose Manualas your receive mode. You control the phone line and must answer every call yourself.

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991  
makes it unlawful for any person to use a  
computer or electronic device to send any  
message via a telephone fax machine unless  
such messages clearly contain, in a margin at the  
top or bottom of each transmitted page, or on the  
first page of the transmission, the date and time it  
is sent and an identification of the business or  
other entity or other individual sending the  
message and the telephone number of the  
sending machines or such business, other entity  
or individual.  
Set your machine’s Station ID so that the date and  
time appear on each fax you send.

Transmission Verification Report that can be used as  
confirmation that you sent a fax. This report lists the  
name or fax number of the receiving party, the date,  
time, and duration of the transmission, the number of  
pages transmitted, and whether or not the  
transmission was successful. If you want to use the  
Fax Transmission Report feature, see Transmission

First you must configure the wireless network settings of your machine to communicate with your access  
point/router. After the machine is configured to communicate with your access point/router, computers on your  
network will have access to the machine. To use the machine from these computers, you will need to install the  
drivers and software. The following steps will guide you through the configuration and installation process.  
To achieve optimum results with normal everyday document printing, place the Brother machine as close to the  
network access point/router as possible with minimal obstructions. Large objects and walls between the two  
devices as well as interference from other electronic devices can affect the data transfer speed of your documents.  
Due to these factors, wireless may not be the best method of connection for all types of documents and  
applications. If you are printing large files, such as multi-page documents with mixed text and large graphics, you  
may want to consider choosing USB for the fastest throughput speed.  
NOTE  
If you have previously configured the wireless settings of the machine, you must reset the network settings  
before you can configure the wireless settings again.  
On your machine, press Menu. Press a or b to choose Network. Press OK.
