Send a manual fax by pressing Hook or by lifting the handset of an external C telephone and dialing the number. Wait to hear fax receiving tones before pressing Black Start or Color Start. Make sure the machine is in the correct receive mode for your setup. (See Receive Mode settings on page 49.) 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 you do not hear ringing when you call your machine, ask your telephone company to check the line. Receiving Faxes Difficulties Cannot receive a fax. Suggestions Make sure your machine has a dial tone by pressing the Hook key. If you hear static or interference on your fax line, please contact your local telephone company. Check all line cord connections. Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged into the telephone wall jack and the LINE jack of the machine. If you subscribe to DSL or VoIP services, please contact your service provider for connection instructions. Make sure the machine is in the correct Receive Mode. This is determined by the external devices and telephone subscriber services you have on the same line as the Brother machine. (See Receive Mode settings on page 49.) If you have a dedicated fax line and want your Brother machine to automatically answer all incoming faxes, you should select Fax Only mode. If your Brother machine shares a line with an external answering machine, you should select the External TAD mode. In External TAD mode, your Brother machine will automatically receive incoming faxes and voice callers will be able to leave a message on your answering machine. If your Brother machine shares the line with a Voice Mail subscriber service, please see Voice Mail on page 53. If your Brother machine is on a line with the Distinctive Ring subscriber service, please see Distinctive Ring on page 54. If your Brother machine shares a line with other telephones and you want it to automatically answer all incoming faxes, you should select the Fax/Tel mode. In Fax/Tel mode, your Brother machine will automatically receive faxes and produce a pseudo/double-ring to alert you to answer voice calls. If you do not want your Brother machine to automatically answer any incoming faxes, you should select the Manual mode. In Manual mode, you must answer every incoming call and activate the machine to receive faxes. 125
