DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Handling Incoming Calls Double ring in FAX/ TEL mode. The FAX/MFC knows the incoming call is not a fax, so it is signaling you to answer the telephone call. Pick up the FAX/MFC handset or answer from an extension phone and press your FAX/MFC's Telephone Answer Code (default setting is #51). I have difficulty transferring a fax call to the FAX/MFC. If you answered at the FAX/MFC, press Start and hang up immediately. If you answered at an extension phone, press your FAX/MFC's Remote Activation Code (default setting is 51). When your FAX/MFC answers, hang up. The Caller ID does not display after the Call Waiting Signal. The Caller ID signal is sent ten seconds after the Call Waiting Signal and speaking may interfer with it. When you hear the Caller Waiting signal, ask the other party to hold while you catch the other call. Then stop speaking until you see the Caller ID on the LCD. I have difficulty with custom features on a single line. If you have Call Waiting, Caller ID, Call Waiting/ Caller ID, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering machine, alarm system or any other custom feature on a single phone line with your FAX/MFC, it may create a problem sending or receiving fax data. Example #1: If you are having a telephone conversation and a fax communication signal comes through on your Call Waiting Call ID feature, you can verify that the second call is a fax by switching to it. You have the option to receive the fax call, by asking the first caller to hang up to clear the line. Example #2: If you are sending or receiving a fax message while a Call Waiting Caller ID (or other custom feature) signal comes through on the line, the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the fax data. (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 line with no custom features is recommended. T R O U B L E S H O O T I N G A N D R O U T I N E M A I N T E N A N C E 11 - 10

SUGGESTIONS
Handling Incoming Calls
Double ring in FAX/
TEL mode.
The
FAX/MFC
knows the incoming call is not a
fax, so it is signaling you to answer the telephone
call. Pick up the
FAX/MFC
handset or answer from
an extension phone and press your
FAX/MFC
’s
Telephone Answer Code (default setting is #51).
I have difficulty
transferring a fax call to
the
FAX/MFC
.
If you answered at the FAX/MFC, press
Start
and
hang up immediately. If you answered at an
extension phone, press your FAX/MFC’s Remote
Activation Code (default setting is
51). When
your FAX/MFC answers, hang up.
The Caller ID does not
display after the Call
Waiting Signal.
The Caller ID signal is sent ten seconds after the
Call Waiting Signal and speaking may interfer with
it. When you hear the Caller Waiting signal, ask the
other party to hold while you catch the other call.
Then stop speaking until you see the Caller ID on
the LCD.
I have difficulty with
custom features on a
single line.
If you have Call Waiting, Caller ID, Call Waiting/
Caller ID, Ring Master, Voice Mail, an answering
machine, alarm system or any other custom feature
on a single phone line with your
FAX/MFC
, it may
create a problem sending or receiving fax data.
Example #1:
If you are having a telephone
conversation and a fax communication signal
comes through on your Call Waiting Call ID
feature, you can verify that the second call is a fax
by switching to it. You have the option to receive
the fax call, by asking the first caller to hang up to
clear the line.
Example #2:
If you are sending or receiving a fax
message while a Call Waiting Caller ID (or other
custom feature) signal comes through on the line,
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the
fax data. (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 line with no custom features is
recommended.
