Simultaneous Printing/Faxing Your machine can print data from your computer while sending or receiving a fax, or while scanning information into the computer. However, when the machine is copying or receiving a fax on paper, it pauses the PC printing operation, and then resumes when copying or fax receiving is complete. Fax sending continues during PC printing. (See Acceptable Paper, Page 2-6.) Choosing Acceptable Paper We recommend that you test paper (especially special sizes and types of paper) on the machine before purchasing large quantities. I Avoid feeding carrier sheets with labels exposed, or your machine will be damaged. I Avoid using coated paper, such as vinyl coated paper. I Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper. For optimum printing, use a recommended type of paper, especially plain paper and transparencies. For more information on paper specifications, consult your nearest Brother authorized sales representative or the place where you purchased your machine. I Use labels or transparencies that are designed for use in laser printers. I For the best print quality, we recommend using long-grained paper. I If you are using special paper, and the paper has problems feeding from the paper cassette, try again using the manual feed slot. I You can use recycled paper in this machine. 13 - 6 U S I N G B R O T H E R M A C H I N E A S A P R I N T E R
