About Fax Machines If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little mysterious. Soon, you’ll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily. Fax Tones and Handshake When someone is sending a fax, the FAX/MFC sends fax calling tones, (CNG tones) — soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear them when you dial and press Start, and they continue for about 40 seconds after dialing.
2 Assembly and Connections 2 Packing List Make sure you have the following items: Wire Extensions (Both Wire Extensions are the same size.
Choosing a Location Place your FAX/MFC on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the FAX/MFC near a telephone jack and a standard, grounded power outlet. Make sure nothing blocks the flow of air from the fan on the right side of the FAX/MFC. Avoid placing your FAX/MFC in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators.
Assembly Installing the Drum Unit Assembly (with Toner Cartridge) 1 Unpack the drum unit assembly, including the toner cartridge, and gently rock it from side to side five or six times to distribute toner evenly inside the cartridge. To prevent damage to the drum, do NOT expose it to light for longer than a few minutes. Do NOT remove the starter sheet—this will be ejected while the FAX/MFC is warming up.
2 Open the top cover of the FAX/MFC. 3 Holding the drum unit by its handles, insert it into the FAX/MFC. 4 Close the top cover.
Setting Up the FAX/MFC Follow the instructions below to connect the handset, power cord, and telephone line. . EXT E LIN 1 Connect the Handset. Connect the curled handset cord to the bottom of the handset and the left side of the FAX/MFC. 2 Connect the power cord. WARNING ■ This FAX/MFC must be grounded using a three-prong plug.
4 Attach the wire extensions to the multi-purpose sheet feeder and to the document guide base. 5 Attach the document and paper trays to the FAX/MFC and pull out their extensions. Loading Paper 1 2-6 Open the multi-purpose sheet feeder cover.
2 Fan the paper well. Load the paper, making sure that the print side is toward the fax machine and the paper level is stacked below the paper mark. The feeder can hold up to 200 sheets of paper, or up to 10 envelopes. 3 Adjust the guides to fit the paper, to help prevent paper jams. Press and Slide. Acceptable Paper The FAX/MFC can handle paper that has the following specifications. But please note that you can receive fax messages only on Letter, Legal and A4 paper.
Paper Capacity in Feeder Multi-purpose Sheet Feeder: Up to 0.87 inch (22 mm) in height (up to the mark) Approx. 200 sheets of 20 lb. (75 g/m2) or 50 sheets of 42 lb. (158 g/m2) Letter/A4 paper, or 10 envelopes Output Tray: Approx. 100 sheets of 20 lb. (75 g/m2) Letter/A4 paper Note Cut Sheet Envelopes Basis Weight 16 to 42 lb. (60 to 158 g/m2) 20 to 24 lb. (75 to 90 g/m2) single thickness Caliper ±0.03 to ±0.08 in. (0.08 to 0.2 mm) 0.0033 to 0.0058 in. (0.084 to 0.
Connecting an External Telephone Answering Device (TAD) Sequence You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the FAX/MFC, the TAD answers all calls. The FAX/MFC “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the FAX/MFC takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the FAX/MFC lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message.
3 Set your external TAD to four rings or less. (The FAX/MFC’s Ring Delay setting does not apply). 4 5 Record the outgoing message (see below). Set the TAD to answer calls. Set the Receive Mode to TAD: ANSWER MACH. (Press Receive Mode.) Recording Outgoing Message on External TAD Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception. 1 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message.
Two-Line Phone System A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers on the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks (RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your FAX/MFC must be plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal in size and appearance and both may contain four wires (black, red, green, yellow). To test the type of jack, plug in a two-line phone and see if it can access both lines.
1 2 Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your FAX/MFC. Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your FAX/MFC into the L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on the left side of the FAX/MFC. 3 Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack of the two-line TAD.
If you are installing the FAX/MFC to work with a PBX: 1 It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that handles your PBX. 2 If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is recommended that the Receive Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
3 On-Screen Programming 3 User-Friendly Programming We have designed your FAX/MFC with on-screen programming and a Help key. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the functions your FAX/MFC has to offer. (See Using This Manual, page 1-1.) Since your fax programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step onscreen prompts to help you program your FAX/MFC.
Alternating Displays When you see alternating displays, the LCD sometimes alternates between the currently selected option, and a help message giving brief instructions about how to proceed. The display you’ll probably see most often is shown below, showing you, when you place an original in the ADF, that you can dial a number and send a fax, or you can make a copy. FAX: NO.

This system is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can use the system to send faxes to any fax machine, not just the one from which you are calling.
Error Messages You may occasionally encounter a difficulty with your FAX/MFC or telephone line. If this happens, your FAX/MFC often identifies the problem and displays an error message. The list below explains the most common error messages. You can correct most problems yourself. If you need additional help, call the Brother Fax-Back System at USA: 1-800-521-2846 From within Canada:1-800-681-9838 ERROR MESSAGE CAUSE ACTION CHANGE DRUM SOON The drum unit is near the end of its life.

If You Are Having Difficulty with Your FAX/MFC If you think there is a problem with your FAX/MFC, make a copy first. If the copy looks good, the problem is probably not your FAX/MFC. Check the table below and follow the troubleshooting tips. DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Printing and Receiving Faxes Condensed print and horizontal streaks; top and bottom of sentences are cut off. If your copy looks good, you probably had a bad connection, with static or interference on the phone line.
DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Phone Line or Connections Dialing does not work. Check for a dial tone. Change TONE/PULSE setting (See Setting Tone/Pulse Dialing (For Canada Only), page 4-2). Check all line cord connections, and make sure the curled handset cord is not in the EXT jack. Check power cord connection. Send a manual fax by pressing Hook—OR—by lifting the handset, and dialing the number. Wait to hear the fax receiving tones before pressing Start.
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.
DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS General Printing Difficulties The FAX/MFC does not print. Check the following: • The FAX/MFC is plugged in. • The toner cartridge and drum unit are installed properly. • The interface cable is securely connected between the MFC and computer. • Check to see if LCD is showing an error message. (See page 11-2 to 11-5) The MFC prints unexpectedely or it prints garbage. (For MFC 4600 Only) Reset the MFC.
DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Windows® Setup Printing Difficulties I cannot print from my application software. (For MFC 4600 only) Make sure the Windows® printer driver is installed and you select it in your application software. Sometimes I get the error message PRINT OVERRUN when printing certain documents from Windows®. (For MFC 4600 only) If you are using the supplied Windows® driver, turn the error recover operation on in the Setup dialog box and try again.
DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Copy Quality Difficulties Vertical streaks appear in copies. Sometimes you may see vertical streaks on your copies. Either the scanner or the primary corona wire for printing is dirty. Clean them both. (See page 11-17 to 11-19) Print Quality Difficulties Printouts are too dark or too light. Adjust the print conditions by setting the Print Density light function. It has been factory set to the middle position. (See Setting the Print Density, page 5-5.
DIFFICULTY SUGGESTIONS Print Quality Difficulties (CONTINUED) The whole page is printed black. Wipe the electric terminals referring to page 11-18. Also, do not use heat-sensitive paper as it will cause this problem. After cleaning, if the printed pages are still black and the display shows CHANGE DRUM SOON, replace the drum unit with a new one. Black Page Nothing is printed on the page. Make sure that the toner cartridge is not empty. Wipe the electric terminals.
Packing and Shipping the FAX/MFC Whenever you transport the FAX/MFC, use the packing materials that came with your machine. Also, follow the steps below to pack the FAX/MFC or it may be damaged, which will void the FAX/MFC’s warranty. 1 Remove the line cord and unplug the FAX/MFC from the AC outlet. 2 Open the top cover. 3 Hold the drum unit assembly by its handles and remove it. Top Cover Drum Unit Caution Remove the drum unit and toner cartridge assembly.
6 Wrap the FAX/MFC in the plastic bag and place it in the original carton with the original packing material. 7 Pack the drum unit, toner cartridge assembly and printed materials into the original carton as shown below: Note 8 If you are returning the FAX/MFC to Brother as part of the Swap Program, Pack only the FAX/MFC. Keep all separate parts to use with your “Swap” machine. Close the carton and tape it shut.
Routine Maintenance You can keep your FAX/MFC in optimum condition by cleaning it on a regular basis. It is a good idea to clean the drum unit during this routine. Avoid using thinners or other organic solvents to clean the FAX/MFC and do not use water. Cleaning the Document Scanner 1 Unplug the telephone line and then the power cord. When you reconnect these lines later, make sure to connect the power cord first, then the telephone line. 2 3 4 Open the Control Panel cover.
Cleaning the Printer Caution ■ Do not use isopropyl alcohol to remove dirt from the control panel. It may cause a crack on the panel. ■ Do not use isopropyl alcohol to clean the scanner window or the toner sensor. ■ Do not touch the scanner window with your finger. ■ Handle the drum unit carefully as it contains toner. If toner scatters and your hands or clothes get dirty, immediately wipe or wash it off with cold water. 1 2 Open the top cover. Remove the drum unit assembly.
Cleaning the Drum Unit We recommend you place the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering toner. 1 Carefully turn the drum unit upside down. 2 Clean the primary corona wire inside the drum unit by gently sliding the tab from right to left several times. 3 Return the tab to the home position ( ▼ ) before reinstalling the drum unit.
Replacing the Toner Cartridge The FAX/MFC can print approximately 2,200 pages with one toner cartridge. When the toner cartridge is running low, the display shows TONER LOW. The FAX/MFC is supplied with a starter toner cartridge that must be replaced after 1,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your average document type (i.e. standard letter, detailed graphics). It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you see the TONER LOW warning.
1 Open the top cover. Make sure the top cover is completely open. To remove the drum unit, hold each side of the drum by its handles and gently lift the drum forward toward you. Top Cover Drum Unit Place the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering the toner. 2 3 Gently turn the lever on the toner cartridge forward until it stops. The toner cartridge cannot be removed unless the shutter is completely closed, by turning the lever fully to the front.
Note 4 Handle the toner cartridge carefully. If toner scatters on your hands or clothes, immediately wipe it off or wash it with cold water. Unpack the new toner cartridge. Place the used toner cartridge into the aluminum bag and discard it according to local regulations. Old Toner Cartridge New Toner Cartridge Aluminum Bag Caution ■ Wait to unpack the toner cartridge until immediately before you install it into the fax machine.
6 Slide the new toner cartridge into the opening on the right side of the drum unit. To ensure that the toner cartridge and the drum unit fit together correctly, make sure that the toner cartridge guide arrow is exactly aligned with the guide arrow on the drum unit. 7 Gently turn the lever on the toner cartridge backward until it stops. 8 Reinstall the drum unit into the fax machine and close the top cover.
Replacing the Drum Unit The FAX/MFC uses a drum unit to create the print images on paper. If the screen displays CHANGE DRUM SOON, the drum unit is nearly at the end of its life. Purchase a new drum unit to replace the current one. Even if the display shows CHANGE DRUM SOON, you may be able to continue to print without replacing the drum unit for a while. However, if there is a noticeable deterioration in the output print quality even before CHANGE DRUM SOON is shown, then the drum unit should be replaced.
Follow these steps to replace the drum unit: 1 2 Open the top cover. Remove the old drum unit. Place the drum unit on a drop cloth or large piece of disposable paper to avoid spilling and scattering the toner. Top Cover Drum Unit 3 Remove the toner cartridge from the drum unit and keep it in a safe place. For more information, see Replacing the Toner Cartridge, page 11-20. Toner Cartridge Toner Cartridge Note Discard the used drum unit according to local regulations.
4 Wait to unpack the new drum unit until immediately before installing it. Place the old drum unit into the aluminum bag and discard it according to local regulations. Old Toner Cartridge New Toner Cartridge Aluminum Bag 5 Gently rock the new drum from side to side five or six times. Caution Do NOT remove the clear plastic starter sheet! Clear Plastic Starter Sheet ■ Wait to unpack the drum unit immediately before installing it into the fax machine.
6 Reinstall the toner cartridge into the new drum unit. For more information, see Replacing the Toner Cartridge, page 11-20. 7 Holding the new drum unit by its handles, install it. Close the top cover. 8 The FAX/MFC will eject the clear plastic starter sheet automatically.
