Introduction

Using This Manual
Thank you for purchasing a Brother FAX/MFC. This FAX/MFC has been designed
to be simple to use, with LCD screen prompts to guide you through functions.
However, you can use your FAX/MFC to its fullest potential by taking a few
minutes to read this manual.
Additionally, your FAX/MFC has a Help Key. Press
Help
to print a list of basic
operational steps and functions.
Finding Information
All chapter headings and subheadings are listed in the Table of Contents. You will
be able to find information about a specific feature or function by checking the
Index at the back of this manual. Also, throughout this manual, you’ll see special
symbols alerting you to important information, cross-references, and warnings.
Illustrations of some screen displays also help you choose the correct key-presses.
Test Sheet Procedures (for USA only)
After programming your Station ID, please fill out the TEST SHEET included with

transmission. This will verify that your FAX/MFC is properly installed.
When this document is received a confirmation sheet will be sent back to your
FAX/MFC. To get a response, be sure to set up your Station ID.

About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little
mysterious. You’ll soon get used to the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and
be able 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. During that time, the
sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the receiving machine. Each time
you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone
line. You’ll soon learn to listen for these soft beeps each time you answer a phone on
your fax line, so you can know if you are receiving a fax message.
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones — loud, chirping sounds. A
receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the screen
displays “RECEIVE.” If your FAX/MFC is set to the FAX ONLY Mode, it will answer
every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the other party hangs
up, your FAX/MFC continues to send the “chirps” for about 40 seconds, and the
screen continues to display “RECEIVE.” To cancel the receiving mode, press
Stop
.
When your FAX/MFC is in FAX/TEL (F/T), it answers with a short beep. After this
beep, the FAX/MFC listens for CNG tones, and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax “handshake” is the time in which the sending machine’s CNG tones and
the receiving machines “chirps” overlap. This must be for at least two to four
seconds, so the fax machines can understand how each is sending and receiving
the fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG
tones only last for about 40 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s
important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax line,
your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is answered. Pay special
attention to the directions in the Installation chapter for connecting a TAD to your
FAX/MFC.

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 machine near a telephone jack and a
standard, grounded power outlet.
Avoid placing your FAX/MFC in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air
conditioners, water, chemicals, or refrigerators. Do not expose the FAX/MFC to
direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust. Do not connect your FAX/MFC to
electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of
power can wipe out information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect your FAX/
MFC to electrical outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other
equipment that might disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such
as speakers or the base units of cordless phones.

Connect the handset
Connect the curled handset cord to the bottom of the handset and the side of the
FAX/MFC.
*PC I/F jack is for use only with Multi-Func-
tion Link, which is included with the MFC
1870MC and MFC 1970MC, or with the op-
tional software. If you have not purchased the
optional Multi-Function Link (also called
“Missing Link”) for your FAX 1570MC, then
ignore this jack.
Connect the power cord
When you connect the power, the screen displays 01/01 00:00 FAX.
NOTICE:
1) This fax must be grounded using a 3-prong plug.
2) Since the FAX/MFC is grounded through the power outlet, you can protect
yourself from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the telephone line
by keeping the power to your FAX/MFC on when you connect it to a telephone
line. Similarly, you can protect yourself when you want to move your ma-
chine, by disconnecting the telephone line first, and then the power cord.

3) Lightning and power surges can damage this product! We recommend that
you use a quality surge protection device on the AC power line as well as on
the telephone line, or unplug the telephone line and electrical cords during a
lightning storm.
Connect the telephone line
Connect one end of the telephone line cord to the jack labeled LINE on the left
side of the FAX/MFC. Connect the other end to a modular wall jack.
Special Line Considerations
Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines that
pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are usually passed
down or “rolled over” to the next available phone line in a preset order.
Your FAX/MFC can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last number in
the sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not put the FAX/MFC on any of the
other numbers; when the other lines are busy and a second fax call is received,
the fax call is transferred to a line that does not have a fax machine. Your FAX/
MFC will work best on a dedicated line.
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 4 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. If it can, you must separate the
line for your FAX/MFC.
CHAPTER TWO

Converting Telephone Wall Outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 receptacle. The first two ways may
require assistance from the telephone company. You can change the wall outlets
from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an RJ11 wall outlet
installed and slave or jump one of the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter
into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two separate RJ11 jacks (Line 1,
Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). Plug the FAX/MFC into Line 2 of
the triplex adapter.

Installing FAX/MFC, External Two-Line TAD,
and Two-Line Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD)
and a two-line telephone, your FAX/MFC must be isolated on one line at both the
wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the FAX/MFC on
Line 2. The back of the two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one labeled
L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2. You will need at least three telephone line
cords, the one that came with your FAX/MFC and two for your external two-line
TAD. You will need a fourth line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
1
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your FAX/MFC.
2
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.
