Telephone Line Interference/
VoIP

If you are having problems sending or
receiving a fax due to possible interference on
the telephone line or if you are using a VoIP
system, we recommend changing the modem
speed to minimise errors in fax operations.
1
Press [Settings] > [All
Settings] > [Initial Setup] >
[Compatibility].
2
Press [Normal] or [Basic(for
VoIP)].
• [Basic(for VoIP)] reduces the
modem speed to 9,600 bps and turns
off colour fax receiving and ECM,
except for colour fax-sending. Unless
interference is a recurring problem on
your telephone line, you may prefer
to use it only when needed.
To improve compatibility with most
VoIP services, Brother recommends
changing the compatibility setting to
[Basic(for VoIP)].
• [Normal] sets the modem speed at
14,400 bps.
