Loading documents and paper

Scannable area
The scannable area depends on the settings in the application you are using. The figures below show the areas you cannot scan on paper.

Acceptable paper and other media


The print quality can be affected by the type of paper you are using in the machine. To get the best print quality for the settings you have chosen, always set the Paper Type to match the type of paper you load. You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, transparencies and envelopes. We recommend testing various paper types before buying large quantities.

For best results, use the Brother paper. When you print on inkjet paper (coated paper), transparencies and photo paper, be sure to choose the correct media in the Basic tab of the printer driver or in the Paper Type setting of the menu (See Paper Type on page 19). When you print on Brother photo paper, load the instruction sheet included with the photo paper in the paper tray first, and then put the glossy paper on top of the instruction sheet. When you use transparencies or glossy paper, remove each sheet at once to prevent smudging or paper jams. Avoid touching the printed surface of the paper immediately after printing; the surface may not be completely dry and may stain your fingers.

Chapter 2

Recommended media
To get the best print quality, we suggest using Brother paper. (See table below.) If Brother paper is not available in your country, we recommend testing various papers before purchasing large quantities. We recommend using 3M Transparency Film when you print on transparencies.

Improper Setup DO NOT use the following kinds of paper: Damaged, curled, wrinkled, or irregularly shaped paper

Handling and using media


Store paper in its original packaging, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat. The coated side of photo paper is shiny. Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side. Load glossy paper with the shiny side facing down. Avoid touching either side of transparencies because they absorb water and perspiration easily, and this may cause decreased output quality. Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only transparencies recommended for inkjet printing.

Paper capacity of the output paper tray


Up to 50 sheets of 20 lb Letter or 80 g/m2 A4 paper. Transparencies or glossy paper must be picked up from the output paper tray one page at a time to avoid smudging.

Chapter 7

Telephone Service
The caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the caller ID subscriber service offered by certain telephone companies.

3 Due to the switchboard problems or line problems of local telephone companies, the feature may not work in some areas.

Advantages of Caller ID Caller ID (Caller IDentification) (not available in certain area)


Caller ID is a telephone service that allows the subscriber to see a display of the caller's phone number as the telephone rings. It is a fast way to screen your calls. You can respond quickly to calls you missed, because caller IDs are received and stored in your fax machine memory. Besides the standard Caller ID feature, you can also select a single caller's phone number and call back.

For Business
7

All businesses profit from a quicker response to customer calls.

For Home
Residential customers can protect themselves from unwanted calls.

Setup Method

Note
To get the Caller ID service, you have to apply for it at your local telephone company. FSK and DTMF are the two modes for displaying your calls. The default mode of this machine is FSK. Please ask your local telephone company for whether your mode is FSK or DTMF. If your local telephone company uses DTMF mode, please switch your mode as follows. Contact your local telephone company or Brother dealer in the case that the feature does not work normally. Caller ID feature is not available in the following situation: 1 You have not applied for it at your local telephone company. 2 The fax machine is connected to an internal switchboard or other switch device.

a b c

Press Menu, 2, 0, 3. Press a or b to choose FSK or DTMF. Press OK. Press Stop/Exit.

Caller ID feature
The Caller ID feature of this machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. This service provides you, by means of the screen display, the telephone number (or name) of your caller as the line rings. (See Printing Caller ID List on page 39.) After a few rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller (or name, if available). Once you press Hook and answer the call, the Caller ID information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory. You will see the first 16 characters of the number or name.

Chapter 7

Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device)


You may choose to connect an external answering device. However, when you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine, the TAD answers all calls and the machine listens for fax calling (CNG) tones. 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. The TAD must answer within two rings. The machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8 to 10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax handshake. Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this guide for recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds five rings.

When the TAD answers a call, the LCD shows Telephone. Improper Setup
7

Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line.

Connections
The external TAD must be connected as shown in the previous illustration.

a b c d

Set your external TAD to one or two rings. (The machine's Ring Delay setting does not apply.) Record the outgoing message on your external TAD. Set the TAD to answer calls. Set the Receive Mode to External TAD. (See Choosing the Receive Mode on page 33.)

Note
If you do not receive all your faxes, shorten the Ring Delay setting on your external TAD.

Recording an outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD


Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

1
LINE EXT.

Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.) Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

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. While it is often relatively simple to connect a fax machine to a PABX, (Private Automatic Branch Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask them to connect the fax machine for you. Brother does not recommend the use of a PABX line. PABX limitations in general can cause some functions of the fax machine not to work correctly.

Chapter 13

Please be aware of the following: When printing the INDEX or IMAGE, the PhotoCapture Center will print all the valid images, even if one or more images have been corrupted. A portion of the corrupted image may be printed. Your machine is designed to read memory cards that have been formatted by a digital camera. When a digital camera formats a memory card it creates a special folder into which it copies image data. If you need to modify the image data stored on a memory card with your PC, we recommend that you do not modify the folder structure created by the digital camera. When saving new or modified image files to the memory card we also recommend you use the same folder your digital camera uses. If the data is not saved to the same folder, the machine may not be able to read the file or print the image.

How to print from a memory card


Before printing a photo you must first print a thumbnail index to choose the number of the photo you want to print. Follow the instructions below to start printing directly from your memory card:

If you think there is a problem with your machine, check the chart below and follow the troubleshooting tips. Most problems can be easily resolved by yourself. If you need additional help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips. Visit us at http://solutions.brother.com.

If you are having difficulty with your machine


Printing
Difficulty No printout Suggestions Check the interface cable connection on both the machine and your computer. (See the Quick Setup Guide.) Make sure the machine is plugged in and not in Power Save mode. One or more ink cartridges are empty. (See Replacing the ink cartridges on page 105.) Check to see if the LCD is showing an error message. (See Error messages on page 96.) Check that the correct printer driver has been installed and chosen. Make sure the machine is online. Click Start and then Printers and Faxes. Right-click and choose Brother MFC-XXXX (where XXXX is your model name), and make sure that Use Printer Offline is unchecked. Poor print quality Check the print quality. (See Checking the print quality on page 110.) Make sure that the Printer Driver or Paper Type setting in the menu matches the type of paper you are using. (See Printing for Windows or Printing and Faxing for Macintosh in the Software Users Guide on the CD-ROM and Paper Type on page 19.) Make sure that your ink cartridges are fresh. The following may cause ink to clog: The expiration date written on the cartridge package has passed. (Cartridges stay usable for up to two years if kept in their original packaging.) The ink cartridge was in your machine over six months. The ink cartridge may not have been stored properly before use. Try using the recommended types of paper. (See Acceptable paper and other media on page 9.) The recommended environment for your machine is between 20 C to 33 C (68 F to 91 F). White horizontal lines appear in text or graphics. Clean the print head. (See Cleaning the print head on page 109.) Try using the recommended types of paper. (See Acceptable paper and other media on page 9.) Clean the print head. (See Cleaning the print head on page 109.) Check the printing alignment. (See Checking the printing alignment on page 111.)

The machine prints blank pages. Characters and lines are stacked.

91

Printing (Continued)
Difficulty Printed text or images are skewed. Suggestions Make sure the paper is loaded properly in the paper tray and the paper side guide is adjusted correctly. (See Loading paper, envelopes and other media on page 13.) Make sure the Jam Clear Cover is set properly. Smudged stain at the top center of the printed page. Printing appears dirty or ink seems to run. Stains appear on the reverse side or at the bottom of the page. Make sure the paper is not too thick or curled. (See Acceptable paper and other media on page 9.) Make sure you are using the correct types of paper. (See Acceptable paper and other media on page 9.) Don't handle the paper until the ink is dry. Make sure the printer platen is not dirty with ink. (See Cleaning the machine printer platen on page 108.) Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper, envelopes and other media on page 13.) The machine prints dense lines on the page. The printouts are wrinkled. Cannot perform 2 in 1 or 4 in 1 printing. Print speed is too slow. Check Reverse Order in the Basic tab of the printer driver. In the printer driver Basic tab, click the Settings, and uncheck the Bi-Directional Printing. Check that the paper size setting in the application and in the printer driver are the same. Try changing the printer driver setting. The highest resolution needs longer data processing, sending and printing time. Try the other quality settings in the printer driver Basic tab. Also, click the Settings tab, and make sure you uncheck Colour Enhancement. Turn the borderless feature off. Borderless printing is slower than normal printing. (See Printing for Windows or Printing and Faxing for Macintosh in the Software Users Guide on the CD-ROM.) Machine feeds multiple pages Make sure the paper is loaded properly in the paper tray. (See Loading paper, envelopes and other media on page 13.) Check that more than two types of paper are not loaded in the paper tray at any one time. Printed pages are not stacked neatly. Printed pages double-feed and cause a paper jam. Machine does not print from Paint Brush. Machine does not print from Adobe Illustrator. The machine cannot print full pages of a document. Out of Memory message occurs. Make sure you are using the paper support flap. (See Loading paper, envelopes and other media on page 13.) Make sure you pull out the paper support until it clicks. Try setting the Display setting to 256 colours. Try to reduce the print resolution. (See Printing for Windows or Printing and Faxing for Macintosh in the Software Users Guide on the CD-ROM.) Reduce the printing resolution. (See Printing for Windows or Printing and Faxing for Macintosh in the Software Users Guide on the CD-ROM.) Reduce the complexity of your document and try again. Reduce the graphic quality or the number of font sizes within your application software.

Troubleshooting and Routine Maintenance

Printing Received Faxes


Difficulty Condensed print and white streaks across the page or the top and bottom of sentences are cut off. Vertical black lines when receiving. Received colour fax prints only in black and white. Left and Right margins are cut off or a single page is printed on two pages. Suggestions You probably had a bad connection, with static or interference on the telephone line. Ask the other party to send the fax again. The sender's scanner may be dirty. Ask the sender to make a copy to see if the problem is with the sending machine. Try receiving from another fax machine. Replace the colour ink cartridges that are empty or nearly empty, and then ask the other person to send the colour fax again. (See Replacing the ink cartridges on page 105.) Turn on Auto Reduction. (See Printing a reduced incoming fax on page 36.)

Phone Line or Connections


Difficulty Dialling does not work. (No dial tone) Suggestions Check that the machine is plugged in and switched on. Check all line cord connections. Change Tone/Pulse setting. (See the Quick Setup Guide.) Lift the external phones handset, (on the machines handset or cordless handset if available), and then dial the number to send a manual fax. Wait to hear fax receiving tone before pressing Mono Start or Colour Start. The machine does not answer when called. Check all line cord connections. Make sure the machine is in the correct receiving mode for your setup. (See Choosing the Receive Mode on page 33.) Check for a dial tone. If possible, call your machine to hear it answer. If there is still no answer, check the telephone line cord connection. If there is no ringing when you call your machine, ask your telephone company to check the line.

Receiving Faxes
Difficulty Cannot receive a fax Suggestions Check all line cord connections. Make sure the machine is in the correct receiving mode for your setup. (See Receive modes on page 33.) If you often have interference on the phone line, try changing the menu setting of Compatibility to Basic or Normal. (See Compatibility on page 104.)

93

Sending Faxes
Difficulty Cannot send a fax Suggestions Make sure that the Fax key is illuminated.

(See Entering Fax mode on page 26.) 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 54.) 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 phone line. If you often get transmission errors due to possible interference on the phone line, try changing the menu setting of Compatibility to Basic or Normal. (See Compatibility on page 104.) 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 108.) If the copy you made shows the same problem, clean the scanner. (See Cleaning the scanner on page 108)

Vertical black lines when sending.

Handling Incoming Calls


Difficulty The machine Hears a voice as a CNG Tone. Suggestions 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 35.)

Sending a Fax Call to the machine. If you answered at the machine, press Mono Start and hang up at once. If you answered on an external or extension phone, 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, an alarm system or other custom feature on a single phone 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 its 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 phone line with no custom features is recommended.

Menu Setting Difficulties


Difficulty The machine beeps when you try to access the Setup Receive menu. Suggestions 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.

Black - Approximately 500 pages at 5% coverage. High Yield Black - Approximately 900 pages at 5% coverage. Yellow, Cyan and Magenta - Approximately 400 pages at 5% coverage. The first time you install a set of ink cartridges the machine will use an amount of ink to fill the ink delivery tubes for high quality print outs. This process will only happen once. With all following ink cartridges you can print the specified number of pages. The above figures assume continuous printing at a resolution of 600 x 600 dpi in normal mode after installing new ink cartridge. The number of pages a cartridge will print may change depending on how often you use the machine and how many pages you print with each use. The machine will automatically and periodically clean the print head assembly, a process that uses a small amount of ink. When the machine identifies a cartridge as empty there may be a small amount of ink left in it. This is necessary to prevent air from drying out and damaging the print head assembly.
