Cannot receive a fax.
(continued)
If you are using a telephone answering machine (External TAD mode) on the
same line as the Brother machine, make sure your answering machine is set up
correctly. (See Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device)
on page 36.)
1 Plug the telephone line cord directly from the wall telephone jack to your
Brother machine’s LINE jack.
2 Remove the protective cap from your Brother machine’s EXT. jack, and then
plug the telephone line cord from your answering machine into the EXT. jack.
3 Set your answering machine to answer within 4 rings.
If you are having problems receiving faxes or voice messages, set your
answering machine to answer within 2 or 3 rings.
4 Record the outgoing message on your answering machine.
Record five seconds of silence at the beginning of your outgoing
message.
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
End your outgoing message with your Fax Receive Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or
press l51 and Start to send a fax.”
5 Set your answering machine to answer calls.
6 Set your Brother machine’s Receive Mode to External TAD. (See Choose
the correct Receive Mode on page 27.)
Make sure your Brother machine’s Easy Receive feature is set to On. Easy
Receive is a feature that allows you to receive a fax even if you have answered
the call on an external or extension telephone. (See Easy Receive on page 31.)
If you often get transmission errors due to possible interference on the telephone
line, try changing the Compatibility setting to Basic(for VoIP). (See
Telephone line interference / VoIP on page 91.)
Sending Faxes
Difficulty Suggestions
Cannot send a fax. Check all line cord connections. Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged into
the telephone wall jack and the LINE jack inside the machine.
Print the Transmission Verification Report and check for an error. (See Advanced
User’s Guide: Reports.)
Ask the other party to check that the receiving machine has paper.
Poor fax send quality. Try changing your resolution to Fine or S.Fine. Make a copy to check your
machine's scanner operation. If the copy quality is not good, clean the scanner.
(See Cleaning the scanner on page 57.)
Transmission Verification Report
shows RESULT:NG.
There is probably temporary noise or static on the line. Try sending the fax again.
If you send a PC FAX message and see RESULT:NG on the Transmission
Verification Report, your machine may be out of memory. To gain extra memory,
you can print fax messages from the machine’s memory. (See Advanced User’s
Guide: Printing a fax from the memory.) If the problem continues, ask the
telephone company to check your telephone line.
If you often get transmission errors due to possible interference on the telephone
line, try changing the machine's Compatibility setting to Basic(for VoIP).
