Year 2000 Compliant
Brother is addressing the Year 2000 related issues for all
Brother fax machines and multi-function centers. Our
focus is to ensure that our bundled third party software
will continue to properly process date/time data after
January 1, 2000.
Brother fax machines and multi-function centers will
function properly after January 1, 2000, provided that all
non-Brother hardware, software and firmware used by our
customers in connection or combination with Brother fax
machines, and bundled software, accurately exchange
date data with the Brother products.
Please continue to check our Web page for updates at
http://www.brother.com. All remedies will be provided to
individual customers via software patches through
software download or from Brother Customer Service.

You can use the system to send faxes to any fax machine, not just the one from
which you are calling. Call and follow the voice prompts to receive faxed
instructions on how to use the system and your index of fax-back subjects.

BROTHER ONE YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY and EXCHANGE SERVICE
(USA Only)
This warranty gives you certain rights
and you may also have other rights that
may vary from state to state.
This warranty is given only to the first
end-use purchaser of the
accompanying product (referred to in
this warranty as “this Product”).
What is covered: Brother warrants to
you for the Warranty Period that there
are no defects in the materials,
workmanship or Year 2000 compliance
of this Product. The “Warranty Period”
is 1 year from the date you purchased
this product. The “Warranty Period” for
consumable items, such as Toner,
Drums, Ribbons, etc. is 90 days from
the date of purchase, or the rated life of
the Consumable item, whichever is
shorter.
What is NOT covered: This warranty is
VOID -- that is, this Product has no
warranty -- if: (1) you did not purchase
this Product from an authorized Brother
reseller within the United States, (2) this
Product has been serviced, modified or
tampered with by anyone other than an
Authorized Service Representative of
Brother, (3) the serial number has been
modified, defaced or removed from this
Product, (4) this Product has been
abused or damaged, (5) non Brother®-
brand or non Brother approved parts,
supplies, power supplies or other

Product, or (6) this Product has been
transported without the proper
preparation and packaging.
What to do if you think your Product
is defective:
Call our Customer Service Hotline at
1-800-284-4329, or if you suspect a
defect in materials or workmanship in
this Product, you can report it to a
Brother Authorized Service Center.
During the Warranty Period, supply
Brother’s representative with a copy of
your dated bill of sale showing that this
Product was purchased within the

Brother Authorized Service Center, you
may be required to deliver or send the
Product properly packaged, freight
prepaid, to the Authorized Service
Center together with a photocopy of
your bill of sale.
What Brother will do: Brother (or its
Authorized Service Center) will
evaluate your report of a possible
defect to determine whether a defect
exists, and if it does exist, Brother (or its
Authorized Service Center) will repair or
(at Brother’s option) replace the
Product with a product that performs
the same functions and performs as
well as the original Product. Brother
reserves the right to supply refurbished
or remanufactured replacement parts
provided that the replacement parts
conform to the manufacturer’s

returned to you at no cost.

When an exchange is authorized,
Brother will exchange your non-working

the original Product, plus an additional
thirty (30) days. You will keep the
replacement Product that is sent to you
and must return (or be billed up to the
cost of a new product) your original
non- working product, which shall
become the property of Brother. You
must call Brother Customer Service and
if the representative cannot correct the
product’s malfunction over the
telephone and you elect the exchange
service, you must provide information
pertaining to this Product and you must
also provide a valid major credit card
number. Your credit card will be
charged up to the cost of a new Product
if: (i) you do not return your original
Product to Brother within five (5)
business days; (ii) the malfunctions of
your original Product are not covered by
the limited warranty; (iii) the proper
packaging instructions are not followed
and has caused damage to the product;

vi
BROTHER MULTIFUNCTION CENTER/FACSIMILE MACHINE
LIMITED WARRANTY
(Canada Only)
Pursuant to this limited warranty of 1 year from the date of purchase for labour and parts,
Brother International Corporation (Canada) Ltd. (“Brother”), or its Authorized Service
Centers, will repair this MFC/Facsimile machine free of charge if defective in material or
workmanship. This Limited Warranty does not include cleaning, consumables
(including, without limitation, print cartridges, print head, toner and drum) or damage
caused by accident, neglect, misuse or improper installation or operation, any damage
caused from service, maintenance, modifications, or tampering by anyone other than a
Brother Authorized Service Representative, or from the use of supplies or consumable
items that are non-Brother products. Operation of the MFC/Facsimile machine in excess
of the specifications or with the Serial Number or Rating Label removed shall be deemed
abuse and all repairs thereafter shall be the sole liability of the end-user/purchaser. In
order to obtain warranty service, the MFC/Facsimile machine must be delivered or
shipped freight prepaid by the end user/purchaser to a “Brother” Authorized Service
Center, together with your Proof of Purchase in the form of a Sales Receipt.
For laser products: Failure to remove the Toner Cartridge (and Toner Drum Unit on
applicable models) during shipping will cause severe damage to the MFC/Facsimile and
will VOID the Warranty. (Refer to your Operation Manual for proper packaging.)
For ink-jet products: Do not remove the ink cartridges during shipping. Damage to your
print head resulting from packing without the ink cartridges will VOID your warranty.
(Refer to your Operation Manual for proper packaging.)
BROTHER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED
INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, EXCEPT TO
THE EXTENT THAT ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY LAW CANNOT BE VALIDLY
WAIVED.
No oral or written information, advice or representation provided by Brother, its
Authorized Service Centers, Distributors, Dealers, Agents or employees, shall create
another warranty or modify this warranty. This warranty states Brother’s entire liability
and your exclusive remedy against Brother for any failure of the MFC/Facsimile machine
to operate properly.
Neither Brother nor anyone else involved in the development, production, or delivery of
this MFC/Facsimile machine shall be liable for any indirect, incidental, special,
consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including lost profits, arising from the
use of or inability to use the product, even if advised by the end user/purchaser of the
possibility of such damages. Since some Provinces do not allow the above limitation of
liability, such limitation may not apply to you.
This Limited Warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights
which vary from Providence to Providence.
Warranty Service is available at Brother Authorized Service Centers throughout
Canada. For Technical Support or for the name and location of your nearest
Authorized Service Center call 1-800-853-6660. Within Montreal, please call 685-

Choosing a Location
Place your MFC on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a place that is
free of vibration and shocks. Locate the MFC near a telephone jack and a
standard, grounded power outlet. Make sure nothing blocks the flow of air from
the fan on the right side of the MFC.
WARNING
■Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
■We recommend that this product be used with a surge protection device to
protect the product against lightning storms.
■Never install a telephone jack in a wet location unless the jack is specifically
designed for a wet location.
■Never touch telephone wires or terminals that are not insulated unless the
telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.
■Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
■Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm.
There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
■Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
■For PLUGGABLE EQUIPMENT, the socket-outlet should be installed near the
equipment and should be easily accessible.
■To reduce the risk of shock or fire, use only a No. 26 AWG or larger
telecommunications line cord.
Avoid placing your MFC in a high-traffic area. Do not place near heaters, air
conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose the MFC to
direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Make sure nothing blocks the
flow of air from the fan on the right side of the MFC. Do not connect your 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
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.

On-Screen Programming
User-Friendly Programming
We have designed your MFC with on-screen programming and a Help key.
User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the functions
your MFC has to offer. (See Using This Manual, page 1-1.)
Since your fax programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-
screen prompts to help you program your MFC. All you need to do is follow
the prompts as they guide you through the function menu selections and
programming options and settings.
Function Mode
You can access the Function Mode by
pressing . The LCD shows:Function
Then
Press for Fax Functions— —1 OR
Press for Printer Functions— —2 OR
When you enter the function mode, your MFC displays a list of main menu
options from which you can choose. These options appear one after the other
on the LCD. Select an option by pressing Set when it appears.
You can “scroll” more quickly through options by pressing . When the screen
displays your selection, press . (Press to scroll backward if you passed Set
your choice or to save key strokes. Both arrow keys show all options, in the
opposite order.)
Before you press , you can correct a mistake you made entering information Set
in a field using the dial pad. Use to back up and then type over the incorrect
characters.
When you finish a function, the LCD shows ACCEPTED.
Note If you want to exit the Function mode, press Stop.
