Note
• You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to on to use the Fax Receive Code
l
5 1 (l 9 1 for New Zealand). See
Using remote codes on page 52
• We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5-second silence because the
machine cannot hear fax tones over a
resonant or loud voice. You may try
omitting this pause, but if your machine
has trouble receiving faxes, then you must
re-record the OGM to include it.
Multi-Line connections
(PABX)
7
Most offices use a central telephone system.
Brother recommends that all our 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.
