About fax machines
Custom features
Do you have BT’s Call Minder on the phone line?
If you have Call Minder on the phone line where you will install your
new machine, there is a strong possibility that Call Minder and the
machine may conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls.
Why should there be problems?
Since both the machine and Call Minder will pick up the call, after the
number of rings you have set, each of them has the ability to keep
the other from receiving calls.
For example, if Call Minder is set to answer after two rings and your
machine is set to answer after four, Call Minder will stop your
machine from receiving faxes.
If you set Call Minder and the Brother machine to answer after the
same number of rings, there is no way of knowing which one will
answer first. It is important to remember that neither Call Minder nor
the machine can pass the call back to the other after the call has
been answered.
How can you avoid possible problems?
A very good way to avoid problems like the one mentioned,
is to get
a second phone number on your present phone line.
Many people with Call Minder choose an alternative service, which
is called “BT Call Sign”, and they are very satisfied with it. (See
BT
Call Sign (For U.K. Only) on page A-1.)
Another way to avoid possible problems is to replace Call Minder
with an answering machine. Your Brother machine is designed to
work with an answering machine or TAD (telephone answering
device).
(See
Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD)
on
page A-6.)
