Using This Manual  
Thank you for purchasing a Brother fax machine. This fax machine has been designed  
to be simple to use, with LCD screen prompts to guide you through functions.  
However, you can use your fax machine to its fullest potential by taking a few minutes  
to read this manual.  
Additionally, your fax machine has a Help Key. Press Copy/Help and then press  
Start to print a list of basic operational steps and functions.  
Finding Information  
All chapter headings and subheadings are listed in the Table of Contents. You will be  
able to find information about a specific feature or function by checking the Index at  
the back of this manual. Also, throughout this manual, you’ll see special symbols  
alerting you to important information, cross-references, and warnings. Illustrations of  
some screen displays also help you choose the correct key-presses.  
About fax machine  
If youre a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious.  
Youll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send  
and receive faxes easily.

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. Youll hear them when you dial  
and press Start, and they continue for about 40 seconds after dialing. During that  
time, the sending machine must begin the handshakewith the receiving machine.  
Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones  
over the phone line. Youll 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.  
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tonesloud, chirping sounds. A  
receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the screen displays  
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 chirpsfor about 40 seconds, and the screen continues  
to display RECEIVE. To cancel the receiving mode, press Stop.  
When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL Mode, the fax machine listens for CNG  
tones and then responds with receiving tones.  
The fax handshakeis the time in which the sending machines CNG tones and the  
receiving machines chirpsoverlap. 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 40  
seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, its 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 directions in the Installation chapter for connecting a TAD to your fax  
machine.  
ECM (Error Correction Mode) (For FAX-335MC Only)  
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.

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.  
Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air  
conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the fax machine to  
direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not connect your machine to  
electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of  
power can wipe out information in the units memory. Do not connect your 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.

WARNING  
This machine must be grounded using a three-prong plug.  
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.  
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.

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  
activated each time a telephone call is received. (See Fax Detect, page 5-5.)  
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.  
If you are installing the fax machine to work with a PBX:  
1
2
3
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 Answer 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.  
Custom Features on a Single Line  
If you have Call Waiting, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering service, alarm  
system or any other custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in  
the operation of your fax machine.

Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device  
(TAD)  
(TAD Cannot Be Connected in Some Countries)  
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 listensfor fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax  
machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesnt 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 810 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 lineyour fax machine and  
TAD will both try to control the line.

On the FAX-235 or FAX-236, set the Answer Mode to TAD:ANSWER MACH.  
Outgoing Message (OGM)  
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle  
both manual and automatic fax reception.  
1
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.)  
2
3
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 telephone answering device)  
directly to your fax machine.  
Connect the modular plug on the telephones line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the  
left side of the fax machine.  
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays 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 Hook or Speaker Phone.  
External Telephone can not be connected in some countries.

User-Friendly Programming  
We have designed your fax machine with on-screen programming and a Help key.  
User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the functions your fax  
machine has to offer. (See Using This Manual, page 1-1.)  
Since your fax 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 function menu selections and programming  
options and settings.  
Function Mode  
You can access the function mode by pressing Function/Set. When you enter the  
function mode, your fax machine displays a list of main menu options from which you  
can choose. These options appear one after the other on the display. Select a menu  
option by pressing Function/Set when the option appears on the screen. The display  
will scroll the options within that menu.  
You can scrollmore quickly through options by pressing  
. When the screen  
displays your selection, press Function/Set. (Press to scroll backward if you  
passed your choice or to save key strokes. Both arrow keys show all options, in the  
opposite order.)  
Before you press Function/Set after entering information in a field using the dial  
pad, you can correct a mistake. Use  
characters.  
to back up and then type over the incorrect  
When you finish a function, the screen displays ACCEPTED.  
If you want to exit the Function mode, press Stop.  
Alternating Displays  
When you see alternating displays, the LCD sometimes alternates between the  
currently selected option, and a help message giving brief instructions about how to  
proceed. The display youll probably see most often is shown below, showing you,  
when you place an original in the ADF, that you can dial a number and send a fax, or  
you can make a copy.

Basic Receiving Operations  
Select Answer Mode  
MANUALYou must answer all calls yourself. If you hear fax tones, press Start to  
begin receiving the fax, then hang up. You can use this mode with Distinctive Ringing.  
FAX ONLYThe fax machine automatically answers every call as a fax call. You  
cannot receive a voice call, but you can dial out and make a voice call.  
FAX/TELThe fax 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 a F/T pseudo-ring, different  
from the phone company ringing, to alert you to pick up the call. If you select this  
setting, youll need to set the Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time features (on the following  
TAD:ANSWER MACH. (For FAX-235/236 only)This is the only setting in which  
you can use an external answering machine. Your telephone answering device is  
connected to your FAX, and answers every call. Once the TAD answers, the FAX  
listens for fax tones. If it detects fax tones, it prints the fax.  
The TAD setting works only with an external telephone answering device (TAD); it  
does not work with telephone company voice mail. Ring Delay and F/T Ring Time do  
not work in this setting.  
TAD can not be connected in some countries.  
NIGHT (For FAX-235 and FAX-236)––This is the Night Mode setting. The fax  
machine receives incoming fax calls without ringing. In case of a voice call, the fax  
machine does not ring and it doesnt receive the voice call. The caller hears fax tones  
after few rings.  
NIGHT (For FAX-335MC only)––If you set the receiving mode to Night,  
MC ON/OFF button is automatically turned on. The fax machine receives incoming  
fax calls without ringing. In the event of voice call, the incoming voice call is stored  
in the message manager memory. As the ICM recording monitor (for call screening)  
is automatically set to OFF, the user is not disturbed by the voice of the caller. In case  
of memory full, the machine change to F/T mode if the machine still has paper. It  
changes to Manual mode if it both memory full and out of paper.  
If you have not recorded the Outgoing Message for Message Center mode (See  
chapter 9), your fax machine does not receive the voice call.  
Night mode overrides the receiving mode set by the user. In the morning, the user  
must press Mode to manually revert to the Answer mode they have set (such as F/T  
or FAX ONLY).

Setting F/T Ring Time  
You need to determine how long the fax machine will notify you with its special F/T  
pseudo-ring when you have a voice call. It will ring happens after the initial ringing  
from the phone company. Only the fax machine rings for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no

You can let the fax machine pick up and detect if its a fax or voice call. If its a fax  
call, the machine prints the fax. If its a voice call, the machine signals you with a  
F/T pseudo-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.  
Even if the caller hangs up during the F/T pseudo-ring, the fax machine continues for  
the set time.

Dont hang up the call from the cordless phone until the voice call has been  
transferred to the fax machine. You will know when this is because you will no longer  
be able to hear or talk to the caller via the cordless phone. If you do not wait until this

Custom Features  
Your fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring and Caller ID telephone services  
offered by some telephone companies.  
If you have Call Waiting, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering service or an alarm  
system or other custom feature on your telephone line, it may create a problem in the  
operation of your fax machine. The Distinctive Ring and Caller ID feature may not  
be available in certain area.  
Distinctive Ring (For Singapore and Hong Kong)  
This fax machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ring subscriber service offered  
by some telephone companies, which allows you to have several telephone numbers  
on one phone line. Each phone number has its own Distinctive Ring pattern, so you  
know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have a separate phone  
number for your fax machine.  
Your fax machine has a Distinctive Ring function, allowing you to dedicate one phone  
number just for receiving faxes. Youll need to set Distinctive Ringing to ON.  
You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax  
number, make sure you reset this function.  
The fax machine will answer only calls to the Distinctive Ringing number.  
To have your TAD answer only the main number, the fax machine must be in Manual  
Mode.  
In FAX/TEL or FAX ONLY mode, the fax machine will answer all numbers on the  
phone line.  
The first two rings are silent on the fax machine.  
When you set Distinctive Ringing to ON, the fax machine becomes in Manual Mode  
automatically, and will not accept a change to the Answer Mode.

Caller ID (For Singapore and Hong Kong)  
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 screen  
displays 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 screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.  
CALL PICKUP display remains on the screen when no Caller ID information was  
transmitted.  
OUT-OF-AREA display means the call originates outside your Caller ID service area.  
PRIVATE CALL display means the caller has intentionally blocked transmission of  
information.  
Caller ID service varies with different carriers. Call your local telephone company to  
determine the kind of service available in your area.  
Caller ID Log  
Your fax machine stores up to 10 (FAX-235 and FAX-236) or 30 (FAX-335MC) of  
the last Caller IDs received into the fax machines memory in the Caller ID Log. When  
the 11th (FAX-235 and FAX-236) or 31st (FAX-335MC) 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.
