Telephone line services 8

Setting the telephone line type 8

If you are connecting the machine to a line that features a PBX or ISDN to send and receive faxes, it is necessary to change the Telephone Line Type accordingly by completing the following steps. If you are using a line that features a PBX, you can set your machine so that it always accesses the outside line (using the prefix you entered), or accesses the outside line when Tel/R is pressed.

e Enter the prefix number (up to 5 digits) on the dial pad. Press OK.

NOTE You can use the numbers 0 to 9, #, l

and !.

(Press Tel/R to display !.)

You cannot use ! with any other numbers or characters.

If you choose On, pressing Tel/R (the screen displays !.) will let you access an outside line.

If you choose Always, you can access an outside line without pressing Tel/R.

f Press a or b to choose On or Always. Press OK.

g Press Stop/Exit.

PBX and TRANSFER 8

The machine is initially set to Normal, which lets the machine connect to a standard PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) line. However, many offices use a central telephone system or Private Branch Exchange (PBX). Your machine can be connected to most types of PBX. The machines recall feature supports timed break recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most PBX systems allowing you to gain access to an outside line, or transfer calls to another extension. The feature works when Tel/R is pressed.

BT Call Sign (U.K. only) 8

The BT Call Sign subscriber service is a way to have a separate number for your machine;

it allows you to have at least two separate telephone numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own distinctive ringing pattern.

You can set up your machine so that it only responds to the second number.

When you set the BT Call Sign feature to ON, the receive mode is set to Manual automatically. Manual mode will not respond to incoming telephone calls since the number you use for telephone calls will use the normal ring pattern. If you turn the feature off, your receive mode will remain on Manual.

To enable the machine to work with BT Call Sign 8

This feature works with your external phone.

a Press Menu, 2, 0, 2. The screen displays the current setting.

b Press a or b to choose On or Off. Press OK.

c Press Stop/Exit.

Connecting an external TAD (MFC-1900(E) and MFC-1910W(E) only) 8

You can connect an external Telephone Answering Device (TAD) to the same line as your machine. When the TAD answers a call, your machine will listen for the CNG (fax calling) tones sent by a sending fax machine. If it hears them it will take over the call and receive the fax. If it does not hear them, it will let your TAD take a voice message and the display will show Telephone.

The external TAD must answer within four rings (we recommend you set it to two rings). This is because your machine cannot hear the CNG tones until the external TAD has picked up the call. The sending machine will send CNG tones for only eight to ten seconds longer. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external TAD if it needs more than four rings to activate it.

NOTE If you have problems receiving faxes, reduce the ring delay setting onyour external TAD to one or two rings.

Connections 8

The external TAD must be connected as shown in the illustration below.

1 TAD

a Set your external TAD to one or two rings. (The machines Ring Delay setting does not apply.)

b Record the outgoing message on your external TAD.

c Set the TAD to answer calls.

d Set the Receive Mode on your machine to External TAD. (See Receive modes on page 59.)

Recording an outgoing message (OGM) 8

a Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. For example: After the beep, leave a message.

Multi-line connections (PBX) 8

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.

We cannot guarantee that your machine will operate correctly under all circumstances when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties with sending or receiving faxes should be reported first to the company who handles your PBX.

External and extension telephones 8

Connecting an external or extension telephone 8

You can connect a separate telephone directly to your machine as shown in the diagram below.

1 Extension telephone

2 External telephone

When you are using an external telephone, the LCD shows Telephone.

For Fax/Tel mode only 8

When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will use the F/T Ring Time (fast double-ringing) to alert you to pick up a voice call.

Lift the external telephones handset (MFC- 1900(E) and MFC-1910W(E) only) or the machine (MFC-1905 only), and then press Tel/R to answer.

Using extension telephones (U.K. only) 8

Your premises may already be wired with parallel extension telephones (those connected to sockets in other rooms in the building), or perhaps you intend to add extension telephones to your line. While the simplest arrangement is a parallel connection, there are some reasons why this arrangement may cause problems.

The most common problem is someone picking up an extension telephone while the machine is trying to send a fax.

Such problems can easily be eliminated, if you arrange modification of your extension wiring circuit, such that extension devices are connected downstream of your machine, in a master/slave configuration (see figure 2). In such a configuration, this machine can always detect whether a telephone is in use, so it will not attempt to seize the line during that time. This is known as telephone off-hook detection.

The inadvisable configuration is shown in figure 1, and the recommended master/slave configuration is shown in figure 2.

This new connection configuration can be arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon Hull Telecommunications, your PBX maintainer or a qualified telephone installation company as appropriate. Simply explained, the extension telephone circuit should be terminated on a normal modular plug (BT 431A style), which in turn should be inserted into the modular socket of the white T-shaped connector provided as part of the line cord assembly.

These phones are now connected as external devices as shown on page 72, because they are connected to the fax machine via the T-connector.

Using a non-Brother cordless external handset 8

If your non-Brother cordless telephone is connected to the telephone line cord (see Connecting an external or extension telephone on page 72) and you typically carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.

If you let the machine answer first, lift the cordless handset and then go to the machine so you can press Tel/R to transfer the call to the cordless handset.

NOTE Not all brands of cordless telephones are compatible for use with your machine.

Consumable items A

The drum unit and toner cartridge are two separate consumables. Make sure both are installed as an assembly. For more information on how to replace the consumable items, see the instructions included with the drum unit for replacing the drum unit or see the instructions printed on the box of the toner cartridge for replacing the toner cartridge.

NOTE Brother machines are designed to work with toner of a particular specification and will work to

a level of optimum performance when used with Brother Original toner cartridges. Brother cannot guarantee this optimum performance if toner or toner cartridges of other specifications are used. The machine may not detect toner or toner cartridges of other specifications correctly but may instead detect such items as standard yield toner cartridges. Brother does not therefore recommend the use of cartridges other than Brother Original cartridges with this machine, or the refilling of empty cartridges with toner from other sources. If damage is caused to the drum unit or other parts of this machine as a result of the use of toner or toner cartridges other than Brother Original products due to the incompatibility or lack of suitability of those products with this machine, any repairs required as a result may not be covered by the warranty.

For best performance, use a Brother Original drum and toner cartridge. Printing with a third party drum unit or toner cartridge may reduce not only the print quality but also the quality and life of the machine itself. Warranty coverage may not apply to problems caused by the use of a third party drum or toner cartridge.
