Multi-line connections
(PABX) 7
Most offices use a central telephone system.
Brother recommends that all our Fax/MFC
machines be connected to a discreet
(dedicated) line. Although a particular PABX
may appear to work with a particular model of
fax machine, we cannot guarantee that the
unit will operate correctly.
While it is often relatively simple to connect a
fax machine to a PABX (Private Automatic
Branch Exchange), we suggest that you
contact the company that installed your
telephone system and ask them to connect
the fax machine for you.
Brother does not recommend the use of a
PABX line. PABX limitations in general can
cause some functions of the fax machine not
to work correctly.
