Brother MFC J6910DW User Manual

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. 
Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an 
incoming call. In most but not all areas, the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be 
certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, 
contact the local telephone company. For products approved after July 23, 2001, the REN for this 
product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits 
represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 06 is a REN of 0.6). For earlier 
products, the REN is separately shown on the label.
If this equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in 
advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isnt 
practical, the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be 
advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations or procedures 
that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens the telephone company will provide 
advance notice in order for you to make necessary modifications to maintain uninterrupted service.

Brother Customer Service. (See Brother numbers in the Basic User’s Guide.) If the equipment is 
causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company may request that you disconnect 
the equipment until the problem is resolved.
Connection to party line service is subject to state tariffs. Contact the state public utility 
commission, public service commission or corporation commission for information.
If your home has specially wired alarm equipment connected to the telephone line, ensure the 
installation of this equipment does not disable your alarm equipment. If you have questions about 
what will disable alarm equipment, call your telephone company or a qualified installer.
If you are not able to solve a problem with your machine, call Brother Customer Service.
