• You can switch BT Call Sign off  
temporarily, then turn it back on. When  
you get a new fax number, make sure you  
reset this function. This machine will  
automatically answer incoming calls that  
use your new fax number.  
The machine is initially set to Normal, which  
lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN  
(Public Switched Telephone Network) line.  
However, many offices use a central  
telephone system or Private Branch  
Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be  
connected to most types of PBX. The  
machine’s recall feature supports timed break  
recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most  
PBX systems allowing you to gain access to  
an outside line, or transfer calls to another  
extension. The feature works when R or  
Tel/R is pressed.  
• When you set the BT Call Sign feature to  
ON, the receive mode is set to Manual  
automatically. Manual mode will not  
respond to incoming telephone calls,  
since the number you use for telephone  
calls will use the normal ring pattern.

Your premises may already be wired with  
parallel extension telephones, or you may  
plan to add extension telephones to your line,  
as well as your machine. While the simplest  
arrangement is a straightforward parallel  
connection, there are some problems with  
this arrangement, the most obvious of which  
is inadvertent interruption of a facsimile  
transmission caused by someone picking up  
an extension telephone to make an outgoing  
call. Also, fax receive code may not operate  
reliably in such a simple configuration.

These problems can easily be eliminated, if  
you arrange modification of your extension  
wiring circuit, such that extension devices are  
connected ‘downstream’ of your machine in a  
master/slave configuration (see figure 2 on  
page 41). In this configuration the 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

These phones are now connected as  
external devices (see Connecting an  
telephone on page 40), because they are  
connected to the fax machine via the T-  
connector.  
This new connection configuration can be  
arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon  
Hull Telecommunications, your PBX  
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  
put into the modular socket of the white ‘T’-  
shaped connector provided as part of the line

IMPORTANT - For your safety  
A
To ensure safe operation, the supplied three-pin plug must be inserted only into a standard three-  
pin electrical socket that is effectively grounded through the normal household wiring.  
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded and  
that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective  
grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.  
Important - Wiring information (for UK only)  
A
If you need to replace the plug fuse, fit a fuse that is approved by ASTA to BS1362 with the same  
rating as the original fuse.  
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug that does not have a cover.

Custom features on a single line.  
If you answered at the machine, press Start and hang up at once. If you answered  
on an external or extension phone, press your Fax Receive Code (default setting  
is l51). When your machine answers, hang up.  
If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, an alarm system or other custom  
feature on a single phone line with your machine, it may create a problem sending  
or receiving faxes.  
For example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other 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 faxes. 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 phone line with no custom features is recommended.

Dial Tone detection  
B
Routine maintenance  
B
When you send a fax automatically, by  
default your machine will wait for a fixed  
amount of time before it starts to dial the  
number. By changing the Dial Tone setting to  
Detection you can make your machine dial  
as soon as it detects a dial tone. This setting  
can save a small amount of time when  
sending a fax to many different numbers. If  
you change the setting and start having  
problems with dialling you should change  
back to the default No Detection setting.  
Replacing the ink cartridge  
B
Your machine is equipped with an ink dot  
counter. The ink dot counter automatically  
monitors the level of ink in the cartridge.  
When the machine detects an ink cartridge is  
running out of ink, the machine will tell you  
with a message on the LCD.  
Be sure to follow the LCD prompts to replace  
the ink cartridge in the correct order.  
Even though the machine tells you that an ink  
cartridge is empty, there will be a small  
amount of ink left in the ink cartridge. It is  
necessary to keep some ink in the ink  
cartridge to prevent air from drying out and  
damaging the print head assembly.

If you are having problems sending or

line, you may prefer to use it only  
when needed.  
Normal sets the modem speed at

WARNING  
Brother multifunction machines are  
designed to work with ink of a particular  
specification and will work to a level of  
optimum performance when used with  
genuine Brother Branded ink cartridges.  
Brother cannot guarantee this optimum  
performance if ink or ink cartridges of other  
specifications are used. Brother does not  
therefore recommend the use of cartridges  
other than genuine Brother Branded  
cartridges or the refilling of empty  
cartridges with ink from other sources. If  
damage is caused to the print head or other  
parts of this machine as a result of using  
incompatible products with this machine,  
any repairs required as a result may not be  
covered by the warranty.  
If ink gets in your eyes, wash them out with  
water at once and call a doctor if you are  
concerned.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT take out the ink cartridge if you do  
not need to replace it. If you do so, it may  
reduce the ink quantity and the machine will  
not know the quantity of ink left in the  
cartridge.  
DO NOT touch the cartridge insertion slot.  
If you do so, the ink may stain your skin.  
If ink stains your skin or clothing, wash with  
soap or detergent at once.  
Cleaning the outside of the  
machine  
B
Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in  
the machine and use it up within six months  
of installation. Use unopened ink cartridges  
by the expiration date written on the  
cartridge package.  
CAUTION  
Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with  
volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine  
will damage the outside surface of the  
machine.  
DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink  
cartridge; this can cause the ink to leak out  
of the cartridge.  
DO NOT use cleaning materials that  
contain ammonia.  
DO NOT use isopropyl alcohol to remove  
dirt from the control panel. It may crack the  
panel.

Ink  
The machine uses an individual Black ink cartridge that is separate  
from the print head assembly.  
Service Life of Ink  
Cartridge  
Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage  
The first time you install an ink cartridge the machine will use an  
amount of ink to fill the ink delivery tubes for high quality print  
outs. This process will only happen once. With all following ink  
cartridge you can print the specified number of pages.  
The number of pages a cartridge will print may change  
depending on how often you use the machine and how many  
pages you print with each use.  
The machine will automatically and periodically clean the print  
head assembly, a process that uses a small amount of ink.  
When the machine identifies a cartridge as empty there may be  
a small amount of ink left in it. This is necessary to prevent air  
from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.
