Recommended media

Acceptable paper and  
other media

To get the best print quality, we suggest using  
Brother paper. (See table below.)  
The print quality can be affected by the type  
of paper you use in the machine.  
If Brother paper is not available in your  
country, we recommend testing various  
papers before purchasing large quantities.  
To get the best print quality for the settings  
you have chosen, always set the Paper Type  
to match the type of paper you load.  
We recommend using ‘3M Transparency  
Film’ when you print on transparencies.  
You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated  
paper), glossy paper, transparencies and  
envelopes.

For best results, use the Brother paper.  
When you print on inkjet paper (coated  
paper), transparencies and glossy paper,  
be sure to choose the correct media in the  
Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in the  
Paper Type setting of the menu (See  
Handling and using media  
2
Store paper in its original packaging, and  
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and  
away from moisture, direct sunlight and  
heat.  
When you print on Brother photo paper,  
load the instruction sheet included with the  
photo paper in the paper tray first, and  
then put the photo paper on top of the  
instruction sheet.  
The coated side of photo paper is shiny.  
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side.  
Load photo paper with the shiny side  
facing down.  
When you use transparencies or glossy  
paper, remove each sheet at once to  
prevent smudging or paper jams.  
Avoid touching either side of  
transparencies because they absorb  
water and perspiration easily, and this  
may cause decreased output quality.  
Transparencies designed for laser  
printers/copiers may stain your next  
document. Use only transparencies  
recommended for inkjet printing.  
Avoid touching the printed surface of the  
paper immediately after printing; the  
surface may not be completely dry and  
may stain your fingers.

Your 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.  
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 Tel/R or  
R is pressed.  
Note  
• 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.

You may choose to connect an external  
answering device. However, when you have  
an external TAD on the same telephone line  
as the machine, the TAD answers all calls  
and the machine ‘listens’ for fax calling (CNG)  
tones. If it hears them, the machine takes  
over the call and receives the fax. If it does  
not hear CNG tones, the machine lets the  
TAD continue playing your outgoing message  
so your caller can leave you a voice  
message.

The LCD shows the current setting of  
this feature.  
The TAD must answer within four rings (the  
recommended setting is two rings). The  
machine cannot hear CNG tones until the  
TAD has answered the call, and with four  
rings there are only 8 to 10 seconds of CNG  
tones left for the fax ‘handshake’. Make sure  
you carefully follow the instructions in this  
guide for recording your outgoing message.  
We do not recommend using the toll saver  
feature on your external answering machine if  
it exceeds five rings.

Note  
Improper Setup  
We recommend beginning your OGM with  
an initial 5-second silence because the  
machine cannot hear fax tones over a  
resonant or loud voice. You may try  
omitting this pause, but if your machine  
has trouble receiving, then you must re-  
record the OGM to include it.  
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the  
same phone line.

We suggest you ask the company who

you ask the installer to connect the unit to the

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.

When you are using an external or extension  
phone, the LCD shows Telephone

Operation from extension  
telephones

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.  
If you answer a fax call on an extension or an  
external telephone plugged into the correct  
socket on the machine, you can make your  
machine take the call by using the Fax  
Receive Code. When you press the Fax  
Receive Code l 5 1, the machine starts to  
receive the fax.  
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 fig. 2 on next  
page). 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.’  
If the machine answers a voice call and  
pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use  
the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the  
call at an extension phone. (See F/T Ring  
The inadvisable configuration is shown in  
figure 1, and the recommended master/slave  
configuration is shown in figure 2.

Telephone and External devices  
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  
cord assembly.

typically carry the cordless handset

When a digital camera formats a memory  
card it creates a special folder into which it  
copies image data. If you need to modify  
the image data stored on a memory card  
with your PC, we recommend that you do  
not modify the folder structure created by  
the digital camera. When saving new or  
modified image files to the memory card  
we also recommend you use the same  
folder your digital camera uses. If the data  
is not saved to the same folder, the  
machine may not be able to read the file or  
print the image.

Suggestions  
The machine ‘Hears’ a voice as a

If Fax Detect is set to on, your machine is more sensitive to sounds. It may  
mistakenly interpret certain voices or music on the line as a fax machine calling  
and respond with fax receiving tones. Deactivate the machine by pressing

Custom features on a single line.  
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.

this machine, any repairs required as a  
result may not be covered by the warranty.  
CAUTION  
DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do  
not need to replace them. If you do so, it  
may reduce the ink quantity and the  
machine will not know the quantity of ink left  
in the cartridge.  
Cleaning the outside of the  
machine  
DO NOT touch the cartridge insertion slots.  
If you do so, the ink may stain your skin.  
B
CAUTION  
If ink stains your skin or clothing, wash with  
soap or detergent at once.  
Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with  
volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine  
will damage the outside surface of the  
machine.  
If you mix the colours by installing an ink  
cartridge in the wrong position, clean the  
print head several times after correcting the  
cartridge installation.  
DO NOT use cleaning materials that  
contain ammonia.  
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.  
DO NOT use isopropyl alcohol to remove  
dirt from the control panel. It may crack the  
panel.  
DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink  
cartridge, this can cause the ink to leak out  
of the cartridge.

Ink  
The machine uses individual Black, Yellow, Cyan and Magenta ink  
cartridges that are separate from the print head assembly.  
Service Life of Ink  
Cartridge  
Replacement Ink Cartridges  
Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage Yellow, Cyan and  
Magenta - Approximately 400 pages at 5% coverage  
The first time you install a set of ink cartridges 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 cartridges you can print the specified number of pages.  
The above figures assume continuous printing at a resolution of  
600 x 600 dpi in normal mode after installing new ink cartridge.  
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.
