Introduction
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 machine to its fullest potential by taking a few
minutes to read this manual.
Additionally, your fax machine has a Help Key. Press Help/Broadcast to print a list
of basic operational steps and functions.
Finding Information
All chapter headings and subheadings are listed in the Table of Contents. You will
be able to find information about a specific feature or function by checking the
Index in the back of this manual. Also, throughout this manual, youÕll see
special symbols alerting you to important information, cross-references,
and warnings. Illustrations of some screen displays also help you choose the
correct key-presses. 
						

							2CHAPTER ONE
Test Sheet Procedures (For USA Only)
After programming your Station ID, please fill out the TEST SHEET
included with your fax machine and fax it to BrotherÕs Automated Fax

machine is properly installed.
When this document is received a confirmation sheet will be sent back to
your machine. To get a response, be sure to set up your Station ID.

About Fax Machines
If youÕre a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little
mysterious. Soon, youÕll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone
line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
Fax Tones and Handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones,
(CNG tones) Ñ soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. YouÕll 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
ÒhandshakeÓ with the receiving machine. Each time you use automatic
procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone line.
YouÕll soon learn to listen for these soft beeps each time you answer a
phone on your fax line, so you can know if you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tonesÑloud, chirping sounds.
A receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the
screen displays RECEIVING. If your fax machine is set to the FAX mode, it
will answer every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the
other party hangs up, your fax machine continues to send the ÒchirpsÓ for
about 40 seconds, and the screen continues to display RECEIVING. To
cancel the receiving mode, press 
Stop.

							3INTRODUCTION
When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL mode, it listens for CNG
tones and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax ÒhandshakeÓ is the time in which the sending machineÕs CNG tones
and the receiving machines ÒchirpsÓ overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4
seconds, so the machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the
fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones
only last for about 40 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, itÕs
important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as
possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax
line, your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is
answered. Pay special attention to the directions in the Installation chapter for
connecting a TAD to your fax machine.
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check
the integrity of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM
transmissions are possible only between machines that both have the ECM
feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are
continuously checked for their integrity.
Sufficient memory must be available in your fax machine for this feature to
work.
