Sending Faxes

Difficulty Suggestions

Cannot send a fax

Make sure that the Fax key is illuminated. (See Entering Fax

mode on page 24.)

Ask the other party to check that the receiving machine has paper.

Print the Transmission Verification Report and check for an error. (See

Reports on page 48.)

Transmission Verification Report

says ‘Result:NG’ or

‘Result:ERROR’.

There is probably temporary noise or static on the line. Try sending the fax again.

If you send a PC FAX message and get ‘Result:NG’ on the Transmission

Verification Report, your machine may be out of 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 menu setting of Compatibility to Basic. (See Telephone line

interference on page 94.)

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 97.)

Handling Incoming Calls

Difficulty Suggestions

The machine ‘Hears’ a voice as a

CNG Tone.

If Easy Receive 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 Easy Receive to off. ( See Easy

Receive on page 32.)

Sending a Fax Call to the machine. If you answered at the machine, press Black Start and hang up at once. If you

answered on an external or extension telephone, press your Fax Receive Code

(default setting is l51). When your machine answers, hang up.

Custom features on a single line. If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, Voice Mail, an alarm system or

other custom feature on a single telephone line with your machine, it may create

a problem sending or receiving faxes.

For example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other custom service and

it signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax,

the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the faxes. Brother's ECM feature

should help overcome this problem. This condition is related to the telephone

system industry and is common to all devices that send and receive information

on a single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding a slight interruption is

crucial to your business, a separate telephone line with no custom features is

recommended.

Menu Setting Difficulties

Difficulty Suggestions

The machine beeps when you try to

access the Setup Receive menu.

If the Fax key is not illuminated, press it to turn on Fax mode. The Setup

Receive setting is available only when the machine is in Fax mode.
