6 Telephone services and external devices Telephone services 6 Your machine supports the Caller ID and Distinctive Ring subscriber telephone services that some telephone companies offer. Get the Distinctive Ring service from your telephone company. Distinctive Ring is a feature of your Brother machine that allows a person with one line to receive fax and voice calls through two different phone numbers on that one line.
Telephone services and external devices Distinctive Ring 6 Do you have Voice Mail? If you have Voice Mail on the telephone line that you will install your new machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, the Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the machine can work together without any problems.
Chapter 6 Note Ring Pattern #1 is often called Short-Short and is the most commonly used. If the ring pattern you received is not on this chart, please call your telephone company and ask for one that is shown. f g h Press Distinctive. i Press Stop/Exit. Distinctive Ring is now set to On. The machine will only answer calls to its registered number. The first two rings are silent on the machine.
Telephone services and external devices Connecting an external TAD (telephone answering device) • If You Do Not Subscribe to the Distinctive Ring Service: You must plug your TAD into the EXT. jack of your machine. If your TAD is plugged into a wall jack, both your machine and the TAD will try to control the telephone line. (See the illustration below.) 6 You may choose to connect an external answering device.
Chapter 6 Connections The external TAD must be plugged into the jack labeled EXT. Your machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring). a b Plug the telephone line cord from the telephone wall jack into the jack labeled LINE. Remove the protective cap (1) from the jack labeled EXT., and then plug the telephone line cord from the external TAD into the EXT. jack.
Telephone services and external devices Multi-line connections (PBX) We suggest you ask the company who installed your PBX to connect your machine. If you have a multi-line system we suggest you ask the installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the machine being activated each time the system receives telephone calls. If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator we recommend that you set the Receive Mode to Manual.

A Routine maintenance Replacing the ink cartridges Your machine is equipped with an ink dot counter. The ink dot counter automatically monitors the level of ink in each of the four cartridges. When the machine detects an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine will display a message on the screen. The screen will show which ink cartridge is low or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the screen prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the correct order.
Routine maintenance b Press the lock release lever as shown to release the cartridge for the color indicated on the screen. Remove the cartridge from the machine. d Turn the green release lever on the orange protective packing (1) clockwise until it clicks to release the vacuum seal. Then remove the orange protective packing as shown. 1 1 c Open the new ink cartridge bag for the color shown on the screen, and then take out the ink cartridge. e Each color has its own correct position.
f Gently push the back of the ink cartridge marked “PUSH” until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover. IMPORTANT • DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do not need to replace them. If you do so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the machine will not know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge. • DO NOT touch the cartridge insertion slots. If you do so, the ink may stain your skin. • If ink gets on your skin or clothing immediately wash it off with soap or detergent.
Routine maintenance Cleaning and checking the machine Cleaning the scanner Note A A a Unplug the machine from the AC power outlet. b Lift the document cover (1). Clean the scanner glass (2) and the white plastic (3) with a soft lint-free cloth moistened with a non-flammable glass cleaner. In addition to cleaning the scanner glass and glass strip with a non-flammable glass cleaner, run your fingertip over the glass to see if you can feel anything on it.
Cleaning the print head To maintain good print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed. You can start the cleaning process manually if there is a print quality problem. Clean the print head if you get a horizontal line in the text or graphics, or blank text on your printed pages. You can clean Black only, three colors at a time (Yellow/Cyan/Magenta), or all four colors at once. Cleaning the print head consumes ink. Cleaning too often uses ink unnecessarily.
Routine maintenance j k After the cleaning procedure is finished, press Start. The machine starts printing the Print Quality Check Sheet again and then return to step f. Press Stop/Exit. If you repeat this procedure at least five times and the print quality is still poor, replace the ink cartridge for the clogged color. After replacing the ink cartridge, check the print quality. If the problem still exists, repeat the cleaning and test print procedures at least five times for the new ink cartridge.
B Troubleshooting Error and Maintenance messages As with any sophisticated office product, errors may occur and consumable items may need to be replaced. If this happens, your machine identifies the problem and shows an error message. The most common error and maintenance messages are shown below. You can correct most errors and clear routine maintenance messages by yourself. If you need more help, the Brother Solutions Center offers the latest FAQs and troubleshooting tips. Visit us at http://solutions.
