1 Introduction 1 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.
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. You’ll 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 “handshake” with the receiving machine. Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone line.

Also inserts a pause in autodial numbers. 4 Search/Speed Dial Lets you dial stored phone numbers by pressing # and a two-digit number.
2 Location and Connections 2 Caution 1 2 Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm. We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to protect the product against lightning storms. 3 Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically designed for a wet location. 4 Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
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.
When you use 210mm recording paper roll size... There are two different types of recording paper roll size (216mm/210mm). If you use 210mm recording paper roll size, please set recording paper after attaching the paper guides as below. Paper Guide Paper Guide Setting position 4 Raise the paper enough to pass it over the until it feeds out the front of the machine. Make sure there is no slack. 5 Pull down the blue lever and close the cover.
About Brother Paper For the best print quality, use Brother Therma Plus Paper, Item Numbers 6890 (two 98’ rolls) or 6840 (four 98’ rolls). Therma Plus paper is thicker, like plain paper, and produces the best print quality. The recording paper roll size for your fax machine is limited to a diameter of 2.76 inches (70 mm). You can use a 164’ roll of thinner thermal paper as long as it meets these requirements. Connectious Connecting the Machine Connect the handest, power cord, and telephone line. .
1 Connect the handset Connect the curled handset cord to the bottom of the handset and the side of the fax machine. 2 3 Connect the power cord. Connect the telephone line. Connect one end of the telephone line cord to the jack labeled LINE on the left side of the machine. Connect the other end to a modular wall jack. WARNING ■ This machine must be grounded using a three-prong plug.
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.
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 “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax machine takes over the call and receives the fax.
Connections The external TAD must be plugged into the back of the fax machine, into the jack labeled EXT. Your fax machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack. 1 Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled LINE. 2 Plug the telephone line cord from your TAD into the left side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled EXT.
3 On-Screen Programming 3 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.

You can use this mode with Distinctive Ringing. (See Distinctive Ring (For Singapore and Hong Kong), page 8-1.) FAX ONLY—The 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/TEL—The fax machine automatically answers every call.
MSG CTR (For FAX-333MC only)—The fax machine provides you with a built-in digital Message Center for fax and voice. When you set the machine to answer calls, it will record up to 15 minutes of messages. For more information about Message Center (MSG CTR) operation, please see Chapter 9. FAX ONLY FAX/TEL ANSWER MACH. (For FAX-202/222 only) MNL: MANUAL NGT: NIGHT Current Answer Mode MSG CTR (For FAX-333MC only) To select or change your Answer Mode 1 Press Mode.

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 other phones on the same line ring the special F/T pseudo-ring. However, you can answer the call on any phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the fax machine. 1 2 Press Function/Set, 2, 2. 3 Press Stop to exit.
Easy Receive When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Start when you answer a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few seconds. When you see RECEIVE on the fax screen or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack, just replace the handset, and your machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the fax machine to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or external phone.
Advanced Receiving Operations Operation from External or Extension Telephone If you answer a fax call on an extension phone or on an external phone in the EXT. jack, you can make your fax machine take over by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax Receive Code 5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax. (See Easy Receive, page 5-5.) If the fax machine answers a voice call and F/T pseudo-ring for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
Don’t 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 point before hanging up from the cordless phone, the call will be lost. If nobody answers at the fax machine, pseudo-ringing stops after 30 seconds. In that case, it may still be possible to speak with the caller from the cordless phone.
