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.
Telephone and external devices Multi-line connections (PABX) Most offices use a central telephone system. Brother recommends that all our machines be connected to a discreet (dedicated) line. Although a particular PABX may appear to work with a particular model of fax machine, we cannot guarantee that the unit will operate correctly. 6 External and extension telephones Connecting an external or extension telephone 6 6 You can connect a separate telephone to your machine as shown in the diagram below.

Clean the scanner glass (2) and the white plastic (3) with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with a non-flammable glass cleaner. 1 2 3 e f Close the ADF cover.
Cleaning the print head To maintain good print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed. You can start the cleaning process manually if there is a print quality problem. Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in the text or graphics, or blank text on your printed pages. You can clean Black only, three colours at a time (Yellow/Cyan/Magenta), or all four colours at once. Cleaning the print head consumes ink.
Routine maintenance i j After cleaning is finished, press Colour Start. The machine starts printing the Print Quality Check Sheet again and then return to step e. Press Stop/Exit. If you repeat this procedure at least five times and the print quality is still poor, replace the ink cartridge for the clogged colour. After replacing the ink cartridge, check the print quality. If the problem still exists, repeat the cleaning and test print procedures at least five times for the new ink cartridge.
B Troubleshooting B Error and Maintenance messages As with any sophisticated office product, errors may occur and consumable items may need to be replaced. If this happens, your machine identifies the error and shows an error message. The most common error and maintenance messages are shown below. You can correct most errors and routine maintenance by yourself. If you need more help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips.

If you are having difficulty with your machine Printing Difficulty Suggestions No printout.
Troubleshooting Printing (continued) Difficulty Suggestions The machine prints blank pages. Clean the print head. (See Cleaning the print head on page 74.) Make sure you are using Brother Original Innobella™ ink. Characters and lines are blurred. Check the printing alignment. (See Checking the print alignment on page 75.) Printed text or images are skewed. Make sure the paper is loaded correctly in the paper tray and the paper side guides are adjusted correctly.
Printing (continued) Difficulty Suggestions Machine feeds multiple pages. Make sure the paper is loaded correctly in the paper tray. (See Loading paper and other print media on page 10.) Load only one size of paper and one type of paper in the paper tray at any one time. Make sure the Base Pad in the paper tray is not dirty. (See Cleaning the paper pick-up rollers in appendix A of the Advanced User’s Guide.
Troubleshooting Telephone Line or Connections Difficulty Suggestions Dialling does not work. (No dial tone) Make sure the machine is plugged in and turned on. Check the line cord connections. (Not available in New Zealand) Change the Tone/Pulse setting. (See the Quick Setup Guide.) Lift the external telephone’s handset and listen for a dial tone. If there is no dial tone, ask your telephone company to check the line and/or socket. The machine does not answer when called.
Handling Incoming Calls Difficulty Suggestions The machine “hears” a voice as a CNG Tone. 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 Stop/Exit. Try avoiding this problem by turning Fax Detect to Off. (See Fax Detect on page 38.) Sending a fax call to the machine.
Troubleshooting Scanning Difficulties Difficulty Suggestions TWAIN or WIA errors appear when (Not available in Hong Kong and Taiwan) Make sure the Brother TWAIN or WIA driver is chosen as the primary source in your scanning application. For example, in PaperPort™12SE with OCR, click File, Scan or Get Photo and click Select to choose the Brother TWAIN/WIA driver. starting to scan. (Windows®) (Hong Kong and Taiwan users only) Make sure the Brother TWAIN/WIA driver is chosen as the primary source.
PhotoCapture Center™ Difficulties Difficulty Suggestions Removable Disk does not work correctly. 1 Have you installed the Windows® 2000 update? If not, do the following: 1) Unplug the USB cable. 2) Install the Windows® 2000 update using one of the following methods. Install MFL-Pro Suite from the Installation CD-ROM. (See the Quick Setup Guide.) Download the latest service pack from the Microsoft Web site. 3) Wait about 1 minute after you restart the PC, and then connect the USB cable.
Troubleshooting Network Difficulties (continued) Difficulty Suggestions The network scanning feature does not work.

To add port 54925 for Network scanning, enter the information below: In Name: Enter any description, for example Brother NetScan. In Port number: Enter 54925. In Protocol: UDP is selected.
Dial Tone detection 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 factory No Detection setting. a b c d e f g Press MENU.
