Recommended print media

Acceptable paper and  
other print media  
2
To get the best print quality, we suggest using  
Brother paper. (See table below.)  
The print quality can be affected by the type  
of paper you use in the machine.  
If Brother paper is not available in your  
country, we recommend testing various  
papers before purchasing large quantities.  
To get the best print quality for the settings  
you have chosen, always set the Paper Type  
to match the type of paper you load.  
We recommend using ‘3M Transparency  
Film’ when you print on transparencies.  
You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated  
paper), glossy paper, transparencies and  
envelopes.

For best results, use Brother paper.  
When you print on inkjet paper (coated  
paper), transparencies and photo paper,  
be sure to choose the correct print media  
in the ‘Basic’ tab of the printer driver or in  
the Paper Type setting of the menu. (See  
A4 Glossy Photo

10 × 15 cm Glossy Photo BP71GP  
When you print on Brother Photo paper,  
load one extra sheet of the same photo  
paper in the paper tray. An extra sheet has  
been included in the paper package for  
this purpose.  
When you use transparencies or photo  
paper, remove each sheet at once to  
prevent smudging or paper jams.  
Avoid touching the printed surface of the  
paper immediately after printing; the  
surface may not be completely dry and  
may stain your fingers.

Up to 50 sheets of 80 gsm A4 paper.  
Store paper in its original packaging, and  
keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and  
away from moisture, direct sunlight and  
heat.  
Transparencies and photo paper must be  
picked up from the output paper tray one  
page at a time to avoid smudging.  
2
Avoid touching the shiny (coated) side of  
photo paper. Load photo paper with the  
shiny side facing down.  
Avoid touching either side of  
transparencies because they absorb  
water and perspiration easily, and this  
may cause decreased output quality.  
Transparencies designed for laser  
printers/copiers may stain your next  
document. Use only transparencies  
recommended for inkjet printing.  
You can only print on both sides of the  
paper with PC printing. (See Printing for  
Windows® in the Software User’s Guide  
on the CD-ROM.)

Using Telstra® FaxStream® Duet® is the  
most efficient way to receive both fax and  
telephone calls on the same line. When the  
voice call comes in, all phones (extension  
and external) and the fax machine will ring to  
alert you to pick it up. If a fax call comes in,  
the fax machine will answer automatically  
without ringing, whereas the extension and  
external phones will ring twice with a  
distinctive ring pattern. It is also a more  
efficient way of operating a Fax machine with  
an extension phone as you do not have to use  
the remote activation codes. It gives you two

How Does the Caller ID Work?  
7
Caller ID is a telephone service that allows  
the subscriber to see a display of the caller’s  
phone number or name as the telephone  
rings. It is a fast way to screen your calls. You  
can respond quickly to calls you missed,  
because Caller IDs are received and stored in  
your machine memory.  
The Caller ID Appears on the Display

As your telephone rings, the display shows  
you the caller’s phone number or name if the  
name has stored in the One Touch and  
Speed Dial. Once you answer the call, the  
caller’s ID disappears. You will see up to the  
first 20 characters of the number on the  
display.  
Note  
To get the Caller ID Service: apply for the  
Caller ID service at your local telephone  
company, if available.

How Does FaxAbility Work?  
7
Telephone Service for  
New Zealand  
Your telephone number will have the standard  
ring pattern of long, long tone, while the new  
number will have a ring pattern of long, silence,  
long, etc. When FaxAbility is On, you will not  
hear the first ring of all incoming calls on the fax  
machine. Extension phones will ring as usual. If  
the fax machine recognizes the ring pattern, all  
ringing will stop and the fax machine will answer  
and automatically receive the fax message.  
Otherwise, you will hear the extension phones  
and the fax machine continue to ring. The fax  
machine always listens to the ring pattern  
before it answers, so do not pick up the phone  
during that time. You will quickly learn to  
recognize the ring pattern for faxes, so you will  
not be tempted to answer that number. Either  
you or a telephone answering device can  
answer the main number(s).  
7
FaxAbility  
7
FaxAbility is a service offered by Telecom  
that allows you to have an additional number  
on one phone line, with its own distinctive ring  
pattern. This way, when you get an incoming  
call, you can identify the number being called  
by its ring.  
How Will the Fax Machine Treat All  
Other Numbers?  
7
FaxAbility mode ensures that the machine  
will answer calls to the FaxAbility (secondary)  
number. When a call comes in to your main  
number, all the phones will ring. You can set  
an external answering device (TAD) to  
answer calls on the other number(s).

Using FaxAbility is the most efficient way to

have to press an activation code. And the  
people who call to talk on your main number  
will not have to talk to your fax machine.  
Basically, it gives you two independent

IMPORTANT  
DO NOT connect a TAD elsewhere on the  
same telephone line.  
Most offices use a central telephone system.

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.  
Connections

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

Note  
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

Sometimes you may want to choose from  
several long distance carriers when you send  
a fax. Rates may vary depending on the time  
and destination. To take advantage of low  
rates, you can store the access codes of long-  
distance carriers and credit card numbers as  
One Touch and Speed Dial numbers. You  
can store these long dialling sequences by  
dividing them and setting them up as  
separate One Touch and Speed Dial  
numbers in any combination. You can even  
include manual dialling using the dial pad.  
Note  
If you must wait for another dial tone or  
signal at any point in the dialling  
sequence, create a pause in the number  
by pressing Redial/Pause. Each key  
press adds a 3.5-second delay.  
For example, you might have stored ‘555 ’ on  
Speed Dial: 03 and ‘7000’ on One Touch: 02.  
You can use them both to dial ‘555-7000’ if  
you press the following keys:  
a Press Phone Book.  
b Press #03.

Printing photos from a memory card or USB Flash memory drive  
Please be aware of the following:  
Memory cards or USB Flash  
memory drive folder structure  
When printing an index or image,  
PhotoCapture Center™ will print all valid  
images, even if one or more images have  
been corrupted. Corrupted images will not  
be printed.  
12  
Your machine is designed to be compatible  
with modern digital camera image files and  
memory cards or USB Flash memory drive;  
however, please read the points below to  
avoid errors:  
(memory card users)  
Your machine is designed to read memory  
cards that have been formatted by a digital  
camera.  
The image file extension must be .JPG  
(other image file extensions like .JPEG,  
.TIF, .GIF and so on will not be  
recognized).  
When a digital camera formats a memory  
card it creates a special folder into which it  
copies image data. If you need to modify  
the image data stored on a memory card  
with your PC, we recommend that you do  
not modify the folder structure created by  
the digital camera. When saving new or  
modified image files to the memory card  
we also recommend you use the same  
folder your digital camera uses. If the data  
is not saved to the same folder, the  
machine may not be able to read the file or  
print the image.  
PhotoCapture Center™ printing must be  
performed separately from PhotoCapture  
Center™ operations using the PC.  
(Simultaneous operation is not available.)  
IBM Microdrive™ is not compatible with  
the machine.  
The machine can read up to 999 files on a  
memory card or USB Flash memory drive.

correctly wired to provide connection to ground. Incorrectly wired extension cords are a major  
cause of fatalities.  
The fact that the equipment operates satisfactorily does not imply that the power is grounded and  
that the installation is completely safe. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective  
grounding of the power, consult a qualified electrician.

23 This unit will only work in conjunction with a tone signalling (DTMF) telephone, but some  
telephones are not compatible. Since noise or speech from the telephone can upset dialling  
from this unit, errors may result if the devices are used together in other than quiet conditions.  
24 Where it is necessary to dial prefix digits, such as a Caller Display override code (“0196 ” or  
“0197 ”), this unit will have to be used in conjunction with an associated tone signalling (DTMF)  
telephone.  
25 Note that some telephones are not compatible with this unit and dialling errors may result if the  
two devices are used together in other than quiet conditions. The Telecom Faults Service is  
not to be called should such problems arise. In such cases, it is recommended that the prefix  
and wanted number are dialled manually.

26 This equipment may not provide for the effective hand-over of a call to another device  
connected to the same line.  
27 This equipment is not capable, under all operating conditions, of correct operation at the higher  
speeds for which it is designed. Telecom will accept no responsibility should difficulties arise  
in such circumstances. This condition typically applies to 56 kbit/s modems and facsimile  
machines operating at >14.4 kbit/s.  
28 When using the Caller Line Identification incorporated in this device, verify the integrity of the  
recorded digits prior to dialling.  
29 Some parameters required for compliance with Telecom’s Telepermit requirements are  
dependent on the equipment (PC) associated with this device. The associated equipment shall  
be set to operate within the following limits for compliance with Telecom’s Specifications:  
There shall be no more than 10 call attempts to the same number within any 30 minute  
period for any single manual call initiation.  
The equipment shall go on-hook for a period of not less than 30 seconds between the end  
of one attempt and the beginning of the next call attempt.  
Automatic calls to different numbers are spaced such that there is not less than 5 seconds  
between the end of one call attempt and the beginning of another.  
Equipment shall be set to ensure that calls are answered within 3 and 30 seconds of the  
receipt of ringing.  
30 In the event of any problem with this device, it is to be disconnected, and a CPE item connected  
to one of its terminal ports may be connected directly in its place.  
The user should then arrange for the product to be repaired. Should the matter be reported to  
Telecom as a wiring fault and the fault is proven to be due to this product, a call out charge will  
be incurred by the customer.  
31 The Caller ID telephone numbers that are displayed and stored in this equipment include the  
caller’s area code but not the toll access “0” prefix. When calling back it is necessary to add a  
“0” to the telephone number, or if the telephone number is a local number, omit the area code  
digit. If the toll services of a service provider other than Telecom are being used then a toll  
charge may be incurred if the “0” prefix toll access code and area code are used.

The machine ‘Hears’ a voice as a  
CNG Tone.  
If Fax Detect is set to on, your machine is more sensitive to sounds. It may  
mistakenly interpret certain voices or music on the line as a fax machine calling  
and respond with fax receiving tones. Deactivate the machine by pressing  
Stop/Exit. Try avoiding this problem by turning Fax Detect to off. (See Fax Detect  
Sending a fax call to the machine.  
Custom features on a single line.  
If you answered on an external or extension telephone, press your Remote  
Activation Code (the factory setting is l 5 1 (l 9 1 for New Zealand)). When your  
machine answers, hang up.  
If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, an alarm system or other custom  
feature on a single telephone line with your machine, it may create a problem  
sending or receiving faxes.  
For example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other custom service and  
its signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax,  
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the faxes. Brother's ECM (Error  
Correction Mode) feature should help overcome this problem. This condition is  
related to the telephone system industry and is common to all devices that send  
and receive information on a single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding  
a slight interruption is crucial to your business, a separate telephone line with no  
custom features is recommended.

When you send a fax automatically, by  
default your machine will wait for a fixed  
amount of time before it starts to dial the  
number. By changing the Dial Tone setting to  
Detectionyou can make your machine dial  
as soon as it detects a dial tone. This setting  
can save a small amount of time when  
sending a fax to many different numbers. If  
you change the setting and start having  
problems with dialling you should change  
back to the factory No Detectionsetting.

Replacing the ink cartridges  
B
Your machine is equipped with an ink dot  
counter. The ink dot counter automatically  
monitors the level of ink in each of the  
4 cartridges. When the machine detects an  
ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine  
will tell you with a message on the LCD.  
Note  
For example, when one of the ink  
cartridge is nearly empty, the LCD will  
display Ink low(name of colour).  
You should purchase a replacement  
cartridge in preparation for when the  
machine indicates the colour is completely  
empty.  
CAUTION  
Be careful not to trap your fingers under the  
scanner cover.  
Always use the finger holds provided on  
both sides of the scanner cover when  
opening and closing it.  
When one of the ink cartridge is empty,  
the LCD will display Cannot Printor  
B&W Print Only.  
You should only replace the actual ink  
cartridge when this message Cannot  
Printor B&W Print Onlyappears on  
the LCD.  
k Push paper tray #1 and paper tray #2  
firmly back into the machine.  
IMPORTANT  
Make sure you pull out the paper support  
until it clicks.  
The LCD will tell you which ink cartridge is low  
or needs replacing. Be sure to follow the LCD  
prompts to replace the ink cartridges in the  
correct order.  
Even though the machine tells you to replace  
ink cartridge, there will be a small amount of  
ink left in the ink cartridge. It is necessary to  
keep some ink in the ink cartridge to prevent  
air from drying out and damaging the print  
head assembly.

Cleaning the outside of the  
machine  
IMPORTANT  
B
• 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.  
Clean the Touchscreen as follows:  
IMPORTANT  
• To prevent activating the Touchscreen  
while cleaning, put the machine into  
Power Save mode first by pressing the  
Power Save key.  
• 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.  
• DO NOT use any type of liquid cleaners  
(including ethanol).  
• If you mix the colours by installing an ink  
cartridge in the wrong position, clean the  
print head several times after correcting  
the cartridge installation.  
a Clean the Touchscreen with a dry soft  
cloth.  
• Once you open an ink cartridge, install it in  
the machine and use it up within six  
months of installation. Use unopened ink  
cartridges by the expiration date written on  
the cartridge package.  
• DO NOT dismantle or tamper with the ink  
cartridge, this can cause the ink to leak out  
of the cartridge.  
Clean the outside of the machine as  
follows:  
IMPORTANT  
• Use neutral detergents. Cleaning with  
volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine  
will damage the outside surface of the  
machine.  
• DO NOT use cleaning materials that  
contain ammonia.  
• DO NOT use isopropyl alcohol to remove  
dirt from the control panel. It may crack the  
panel.
