Introduction

UsingThis Manual  
Thank you for purchasing a Brother fax machine.  
This machine has been designed to be simple to use, with LCD screen  
prompts to guide you through functions. However, you can use your  
machine to its fullest potential by taking a few minutes to read this  
manual.  
Additionally, your machine has a Help Key. Press Help/Broadcastor  
Helpto 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 also 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.

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 to send and receive faxes easily.  
FaxTones and Handshake  
When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine 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 dialling. 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 RECEIVING. If your fax machine 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 machine  
continues to send the “chirps” for about 40 seconds, and the screen  
continues to display RECEIVING. To cancel the receiving mode, press  
Stop.  
I N T R O D U C T I O N  
3
When your fax machine is in Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode, it answers with a short  
beep. After this beep, the fax machine 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 2 to 4 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 dialled. 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 (or answering machine) to your fax machine.  
ECM (Error Correction Mode)  
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check  
the integrity of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM  
transmissions are possible only between machines that both have the  
ECM feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are  
continuously checked for their integrity.  
Sufficient memory must be available in your machine for this feature to  
work.

Choosing a Location  
Place your fax machine 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 wall socket and a standard earthed electrical socket, grounded  
power outlet.  
Avoid placing your machine where it may be knocked. Do not place near  
heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose  
the machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Do not  
connect your machine to electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or  
automatic timers as disruption of power can wipe out information in the  
unit’s memory. Do not connect your machine 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. Ensure the airflow from the fan on the sides of  
the machine is not impeded.

IMPORTANT:  
If you need to remove the moulded mains plug in order to  
fit an appropriate type, you must discard the moulded plug  
immediately having cut it off, in order that it is not  
inadvertently inserted into a live socket, thus presenting a  
shock hazard. The wires in the mains lead of this  
appliance are coloured in accordance with the following  
code.  
Green-and-yellow : Earth  
Blue  
Brown  
: Neutral  
: Live  
As the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not  
correspond with the coloured markings identifying the  
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:  
The wire which is coloured green-and-yellow must be  
connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked by  
the letter “E” or by the safety earth symbol  
green or green-and-yellow.  
or coloured  
The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the  
terminal which is marked with the letter “N” or coloured  
black.  
The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to  
the terminal which is marked with the letter “Lor coloured  
red.  
NOTICE:  
This machine must be fitted with an earthed plug.  
Since the machine is earthed via the mains plug, you can protect  
yourself from potentially hazardous electrical conditions on the  
telephone network by keeping the power to your machine on when  
you connect it to a telephone line. Similarly, you can protect yourself  
when you want to move your machine, by disconnecting the  
telephone line first, and then the power cord.  
Do not touch any of the rollers while they are moving.  
Connect one end of the telephone line cord to the socket marked  
LINE on the left side of the machine. Connect the other end to the  
modular wall socket.

Multi-Line Connections (PABXs)  
Most offices use a central telephone system, or PABX. The machine will  
work with most PABX or key systems that allow a two-wire analogue  
connection. However, we recommend that you have a separate telephone  
line for your machine. You can then leave the machine in Fax Only Mode  
to receive faxes any time of day or night.  
If you are installing the machine to work with a PABX:  
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all  
circumstances with a PABX. Any cases of difficulty should be  
reported first to the company that handles your PABX.  
1
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is  
recommended that the Answer Mode be set to Manual. All incoming  
calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.  
2
The unit may be used with either pulse or tone dialling.

Ringer Equivalence Number (REN)  
This equipment has a REN value of 1. A BT line has a “bell ringing”  
capacity, or REN, of 4. This means that adding downstream-connected  
extension telephones and/or extension bells to a total REN of greater  
than 4 may cause a reduction in the bell volume. In extreme cases, it  
may cause the auto-answer facility of the machine to fail.  
Therefore, up to three additional extension telephones (each assuming a  
REN of 1), may be connected downstream of your machine. For an  
explanation of “downstream connection, read “Using extension  
telephones” which follows.  
Unless otherwise marked, a telephone provided by BT may be assumed  
to have a REN value of 1.  
I N S T A L L A T I O N  
21  
Using ExtensionTelephones  
It may be that your premises are already wired with parallel extension  
telephones, or you intend to add extension telephones to your line, in  
addition to your machine. While the simplest arrangement is  
straightforward parallel connection, there are some reasons as to why this  
arrangement will cause unsatisfactory service, the most obvious of which  
is inadvertent interruption of a facsimile transmission by someone  
picking up an extension telephone in order to make an outgoing call.  
Additionally, remote activation may not operate reliably in such a simple  
configuration.  
This machine may also be set to make a delayed transmission (i.e. a  
transmission at a pre-set time). This pre-set job may coincide with  
someone picking up an extension handset.  
Such problems can easily be eliminated however, if you arrange  
modification of your extension wiring circuit, such that extension  
devices are connected “downstream” of your machine, in a master/slave  
configuration. In such a configuration, this machine can always detect  
whether a telephone is in use, thus 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 below, and the  
recommended master/slave configuration is shown in figure 2.  
This new connection configuration can be arranged by your contacting  
BT, Kingston upon Hull Telecommunications, your PABX 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.

Connecting an ExternalTelephone  
Answering Device (TAD)  
Sequence  
You might choose to connect an additional answering machine. When  
you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the machine,  
the TAD answers all calls. The machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG)  
tones. If it hears them, the machine takes over the call and receives the  
fax. If it doesn’t hear the CNG tones, the machine will not answer the  
call, and messages can be left on the TAD by callers in the normal way.  
The TAD must answer within a maximum of four rings. However, we  
recommend two rings as the TAD setting. The machine cannot hear CNG  
tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are  
only 8–10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax “handshake.” Make  
sure you carefully follow instructions in this manual for recording your  
outgoing message. Do not use a “toll-saver” ring setting on the TAD.  
It is important that the TAD is connected via the EXT socket on the  
machine or on the line jack unit. Do not use a line doubler on the line  
jack as this can cause answering problems.  
Connections  
You may connect an external TAD to your machine, as shown below.

Outgoing Message (OGM) of ExternalTAD  
Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the  
ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.  
We recommend the outgoing message (OGM) is no longer than 20  
seconds.  
1
Allow 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message.  
(This allows the fax to detect the calling tone prior to OGM, so  
reception can be faster.)  
2
We recommend that you end your OGM by giving your Remote  
3
Activation Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:  
“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax manually by pressing  
51 and Start”  
Please note that some faxes that are sent manually cannot be received  
automatically because some fax machines do not send a fax tone if the  
call is manually dialled. In these cases you must inform callers that they  
must enter the remote activation code to send a fax.

fax can be connected to most types of PABX. The recall facility on your  
fax machine supports timed break recall only (TBR), PBXS normally can  
work with this for gaining access to an outside line, or for transferring a  
call to another extension: The feature works when the R key is pressed.

Advanced Receiving Operations  
Operation from an External or Extension (For  
FAX-8350P/MFC-9650 Only)Telephone  
An external phone is a telephone that is plugged into your machine  
(either into the machine’s EXT socket or into the back of the connector  
that plugs into the telephone wall socket).  
An extension phone is another phone on the same phone number as your  
machine, but plugged into a different telephone wall socket. For  
example, your machine may be connected to a phone line in your study,  
and you may have another phone on the same line (and same phone  
number) in your kitchen. This feature described below enables you to  
answer the phone in the kitchen if it rings while you are making a coffee,  
knowing that you can transfer the call to your machine if the incoming  
call is a fax.  
If you answer a fax call on an external or extension phone, you can make  
your machine take over by using the Activation Code. When you press  
the Activation Code 5 1, the machine starts to receive a fax.  
See  
“F/T Ring  
Time”  
If the machine answers a voice call and F/T pseudo-rings for you to take  
over, use the Deactivation Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension  
phone. The Deactivation Code is used only in Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode.  
in this  
chapter  
If you answer a call, and no one is on the line, assume you’re receiving a  
fax. At an extension phone, press 5 1, wait for fax receiving tones  
(chirps), then hang up. At an external phone, press 5 1 and wait for the  
phone to be disconnected (the screen displays RECEIVING) before you  
hang up. (Your caller will have to press Start to send the fax.)  
If you accidentally pick up an extension phone when a fax message is  
being received, you may disrupt the transmission or render some portions  
unreadable.  
See  
“Outgoing  
Message (OGM)  
of External TAD”  
chap. 2  
The Remote Activation Code can also be used by your callers. When you  
are using an external TAD, your outgoing message (OGM) should end  
with the statement “to send a fax, press 5 1”.  
For the FAX-8750P, the Activation Code and Deactivation Code can be  
used only from an external phone.  
C H A P T E R F I V E  
48  
For Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode Only  
When the machine is in Fax/Tel (F/T) Mode, it will use the F/T Ring  
Time (F/T pseudo-ringing) to alert you to a voice call. If you’re at the  
machine, you can lift the external telephone’s handset and press Tel to  
answer.  
If you’re at an extension phone, you’ll need to lift the handset during the  
F/T Ring Time and press # 5 1 between the F/T pseudo-rings. If no one  
is on the line, or if someone wants to send you a fax, send the call back  
to the machine by pressing 5 1.  
Changing Remote Codes  
Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The preset  
Activation Code is 5 1. The preset Deactivation Code is # 5 1.  
If you are always disconnected when accessing your external TAD  
remotely, try changing the Activation Code from 5 1 to # # # and the  
Deactivation Code from # 5 1 to 1 1 1. You cannot use the same number  
for the Activation Code and the Deactivation Code.

BT Call Sign (For U.K. Only)  
This machine feature lets you use the BT Call Sign subscriber service  
which allows you to have at least two separate telephone numbers on one  
phone line. Each phone number has its own distinctive ringing pattern, so  
you know which phone number is ringing. This is one way you can have  
a separate phone number for your machine.  
Your machine has a BT Call Sign compatible distinctive ringing  
function, allowing you to dedicate a second phone number (on the same  
phone line) just for receiving faxes.  
You can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a  
new fax number, make sure you reset this function.  
To have your external TAD answer only the main number, the  
machine must be in Manual Mode.  
In Fax/Tel (F/T) or Fax Only mode, the machine will answer all  
numbers on the phone line.

Polling  
Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another machine. You can  
use your machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone  
poll your machine.  
All parties involved in polling need to set up their machines to  
accommodate polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a  
fax, they pay for the call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a  
fax, you pay for the call. (See “Setup for Polling Transmit” in chap. 6.)  
Some machines do not respond to the polling function.  
Secure Polling  
Secure Polling is a way to keep your documents and others’ from falling  
into the wrong hands while the fax machines are set up for polling. You  
can use Secure Polling only with another Brother fax machine. Your  
four-digit ID number must be entered on the fax machine that polls for  
your documents.

regardless of how wide the document is.  
Make sure you insert documents face down, top edge first.  
Adjust the paper guides to fit the width of your document.  
The automatic document feeder (ADF) can hold up to 30 pages,  
feeding each one individually through the fax machine. Use standard

Broadcasting  
Broadcasting is automatically sending the same fax message to multiple  
fax numbers. Using the Help/Broadcast or Broadcast key, you can  
include up to 32 One Touch locations, up to 100 Speed Dial locations,  
and up to 50 manually dialled numbers (maximum of 182 locations if  
you did not use up any locations for Groups, access codes or credit card  
numbers). However, available memory will vary with the types of jobs  
in memory and numbers of locations used for broadcasting. If you  
broadcast to more than the maximum locations available, you will not be  
able to set up transmissions using dual access and the timer.  
The easiest way to broadcast is to first combine frequently used One  
Touch and Speed Dial numbers as a Group, which uses up a One Touch  
Key. (Remember, you can have up to six Groups and Quick Dial numbers  
can be included in more than one Group). Then by pressing Help/  
Broadcast or Broadcast between each location, you can include One  
Touch, Speed Dial, Groups, and manual dialling (using the dial pad) in  
the same broadcast. Use the Tel-Index to help you choose the numbers  
easily.  
After the broadcast is completed, a Broadcast Report will be printed  
automatically to let you know the results.

you want to cancel all locations or just the location that is being sent  
to.  
Enter the long dialling sequence numbers as you normally would, but  
keep in mind that each key counts as one location, so the number of  
locations you can call becomes limited.  
If the line is busy or a connection could not be made for some other  
reasons while broadcasting, the machine will redial the number  
automatically.  
If the memory is full, press Stop to abort the job or press Start to  
send the portion that is in the memory (if more than one page has

Chain Dialling  
You can store very long dialling sequences by dividing them and setting  
them up as One Touch and Speed Dial numbers. Then while dialling, you  
can combine two or more One Touch and/or Speed Dial numbers and  
even include manual dialling using the dial pad. You can use these  
numbers in any combination. The combined number will be dialled, in  
the order you entered it, as soon as you press Start.  
For example:  
You store “555” on One Touch key 01 and “7000” on One Touch key 02.  
If you press One Touch 01, 02 and Start, you can dial “555-7000”. To  
temporarily change a number, you can substitute part of the number with  
manual dialling using the dial pad. So, if you press One Touch 01 and  
press “7001” using the dial pad, you can dial “555-7001”.  
Using access codes is easy. Sometimes you may want to choose from  
among several long distance carriers when you make a call; rates may  
vary depending upon the time and destination. To take advantage of low  
rates, you can store the access codes or long-distance carriers as One  
Touch and Speed Dial numbers.  
Tone/Pulse  
If you have pulse dialling service, but need to send tone signals (for  
telephone banking, for example), follow the directions below. If you  
have touch tone service, you do not need this feature to send tone  
signals.  
Lift the external telephone’s handset.

MS-DOS®  
How to Use the MFC withYour DOS  
Application Software  
Before working with your application software that runs on DOS, check  
that the machine’s name appears in the printer selection of your  
application software. If the machine is not listed, you must install the  
printer driver that corresponds to HP LaserJet IIP’s emulations.  
The following table shows combinations of printer drivers and emulation  
mode. To get the most out of this machine, you should install an HP  
printer driver in your application software.  
Printer driver supported in  
your application software

Be sure to choose the proper printer driver in your application  
software.  
Be sure the printing resolution is set to 300 dpi in your DOS  
application software.  
What Does the Remote Printer Console Do?  
The Remote Printer Console (RPC) is a utility program that can run in  
the DOS environment and comprises the following two programs:  
Remote Printer Console Main Program  
This program allows you to change various printer settings such as  
emulation, print quality, fonts, page setup etc., from your computer  
screen. Since most DOS applications have a Printer Settings menu that  
overrides the settings made by the RPC, you may not have to use this  
utility program. This utility program is useful for application software  
that does not control the printer’s settings and features.

See  
“Brother  
The dedicated printer driver and TrueType™ - compatible fonts for  
Microsoft® Windows® 95, 98 and Windows NT® Workstation Version 4.0  
are available on the CD-ROM supplied with your machine. You can  
easily install them into your Windows® system using our installer  
program. The driver supports our unique compression mode to enhance  
printing speed in Windows® applications, and allows you to set various  
printer settings including economy printing mode and custom paper size.  
Drivers”  
in chap. 12  
Alternate Printer Emulation Support  
This printer supports HP LaserJet IIP printer emulation mode. When you  
use DOS application software, you can use the emulation mode of HP  
LaserJet IIP to operate the printer. Use the Remote Printer Console  
program to set the printer emulation.  
Remote Printer Console Program for DOS  
The CD-ROM supplied with your machine provides you with Remote  
Printer Console (RPC), a utility program. When you operate your  
computer in the Disk Operating System (DOS) environment, this  
program lets you easily change the printer’s default settings (such as  
fonts, page setup, emulations, etc.).  
C H A P T E R T H I R T E E N  
118  
The RPC program also provides a status monitor program, a Terminate-  
and-Stay Resident (TSR) program. It monitors the printer status while  
running in the background, and reports the current status or errors on  
your computer screen.  
Bi-directional Parallel Interface  
The bi-directional interface lets the machine communicate with the  
computer, sending information about memory and printer setup  
conditions. The Remote Printer Console and Windows® 95, 98 or  
Windows NT® Workstation 4.0 drivers support the bi-directional mode  
and can report the printer status to the computer.  
Enhanced Memory Management  
The machine has its own Data Compression Technology, which  
automatically compresses graphic data and downloads font data  
efficiently into the printer’s (machine’s) memory. You can avoid memory  
errors and print most full-page, 600dpi graphic and text data, including  
larger fonts, with the machine’s standard memory.  
Printing FromYour PC  
Paper Cassette  
The machine’s paper cassette can feed plain paper and tranceparencies.  
When the machine receives data from your computer, it begins the print  
process by loading paper from the paper cassette.  
Select the print command from your PC.  
Your PC sends a print command and data to the machine. The screen  
displays the date and time, and RECEIVING DATA. If there are more  
pages, the machine begins to print the next page automatically. When the  
machine finishes printing all data, it returns to online status.  
You may select the proper paper source, paper size, and orientation in  
your application software.  
See  
“Acceptable  
Paper” in this  
chapter  
If your application software does not support your custom paper size,  
select the next larger paper size. Then adjust the print area by changing  
the right and left margins in your application software.  
When you use labels, envelopes, organizer paper, card stock or thicker  
paper, be sure to use the manual feed slot.

Two-Sided Printing (Manual Duplexing)  
The supplied printer driver for Windows® 95, 98 and for Windows NT®  
Workstation Version 4.0 enables manual duplex printing. (For more  
information, see the Help screen for the printer driver.)  
The machine prints all the even-numbered pages on one side of the paper  
first. Then, the Windows® driver instructs you (with a pop-up message) to  
reinsert the paper. Before reinserting the paper, straighten it well, or you  
may get a paper jam. Very thin or very thick paper is not recommended.  
When you use the manual duplex function, it is possible that a paper jam  
may occur or the printer quality might not be satisfactory.  
Manual Feed Slot  
Your machine has a manual feed slot above the paper cassette. You can  
load envelopes and special print media one at a time into this slot. You  
do not have to remove paper from the paper cassette. (For information  
about acceptable paper, in this chapter.)  
See  
“Printing on  
Thicker Paper  
and Card  
Stock”  
Use the manual feed slot to print or copy on labels, envelopes, card stock  
or thicker paper.  
in this  
chapter  
If you use labels and envelopes, they must be of a type suitable for use  
with a laser printer. If you use incorrect types it is possible to damage or  
contaminate the drum surface and cause printing problems.  
Loading One Sheet of Paper  
You do not have to choose manual feed in the Setup dialog box of your  
printer driver. Insert the sheet of paper for Portrait (vertical) or  
Landscape (horizontal), with the side you wish to print on face up in the  
manual feed slot.

ForYour Safety  
To ensure safe operation the three-pin plug supplied must be inserted  
only into a standard three-pin power point which is effectively grounded  
through the normal household wiring.  
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.  
IEC 825 Laser Class  
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT.  
Disconnect device  
The equipment must be installed near the socket outlet which must be  
easily accessible.  
IMPORTANT  
If the socket outlet is not compatible with the mains plug as fitted, then  
remove the plug from the mains cord and fit an appropriate three pin  
plug. If the replacement plug is intended to take a fuse then fit the same  
fuse as the original.  
If a moulded plug is severed from the power cord then it should be  
destroyed because a plug with cut wires is dangerous if plugged into a  
live socket outlet. Do not leave it where a child might find it.  
In the event of replacing the plug fuse, fit a fuse approved by ASTA to  
BS1362 with the same rating as the original fuse.  
Always replace the fuse cover. Never use a plug with the cover omitted.  
WARNING - THIS MACHINE MUST BE PROPERLY EARTHED.  
The wires in the supplied main cord are the following colours:  
Green and yellow: Ground

Problem Using Applications which Use  
Special Comms Drivers, such as the HP  
Pavilion PC and theHP DEMOScreen Saver  
Some applications may use custom comm. drv files which will conflict  
with the files used by MFL Unimessage Pro. In such a case it will be  
necessary to edit the SYSTEM. INI file as outlined below:  
Installing the “HP Demo” screen saver on your HP Pavilion PC after you  
have installed the MFL Unimessage Pro software will overwrite the  
SYSTEM. INI file and you cannot use the Brother MFC to print, scan or  
for Remote Set up. Then you will have to edit the SYSTEM. INI file as  
follows:  
[boot]  
;comm.drv=comm115.drv  
comm.drv=brmfcomm.drv  
[386Enh]  
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\Bi-Di.386  
If you do not want to edit the SYSTEM. INI file, please change the  
screen saver and Re-install MFL Unimessage Pro again.  
Bi-directional Parallel Ports (nibble and byte  
modes)  
The machine supports both nibble (AT) and byte (Bi-directional) mode  
parallel ports. If your PC supports byte mode, scanning and fax reception  
will be at a faster speed. To verify or change the parallel port mode,  
please check your system BIOS in the CMOS Setup or contact your  
computer manufacturer for assistance.  
Some older PC models support only nibble mode. Generally, newer  
models support both nibble and byte modes.

The Machine Connect Failure or Bi-directional  
Communication Error  
Recently, some printers have included a function to show the printer  
status on the PC display. Such printers use the bi-directional  
communication parallel port between the printer and the PC. Our  
machine also has a bi-directional parallel port function. If you install two  
or more different bi-directional device drivers into Windows®, they  
might conflict with each other and cause some problems.  
Please make sure you have installed the machine driver by running  
SETUP.EXE from your CD-ROM drive, as instructed on the CD-ROM  
label. The bi-directional communication may be disabled when the driver  
is installed from Add menu in “Printers” of Control Panel. Please restart  
Windows® after installing the drivers.  
Remove the conflicting situation caused by one of the following printer  
drivers. Review the following sections that apply to any additional printer  
drivers you may have installed into your Windows® software.

The Resource Manager for the machine may not work if the printer  
driver for the above models is installed after the installation of the  
machine printer driver.  
In this case, please install the machine printer driver again or copy BI-  
DI.386 from the CD-ROM to the Windows/System directory. (NOTE:  
BI-DI.386 on Disk 1 is not compressed.)  
HP LaserJet series II, IID, IIP, IIP+, III, IIID or IIIP:  
If Microsoft Windows® Printing System for above models are used, you  
have to modify the “win.ini” file which is in the Windows directory to  
turn the printer’s bi-directional function off.  
We recommend you take a back-up before you modify the WIN.INI or  
SYSTEM.INI, just in case.  
Open the file “win.ini” by using the “Notepad” application. You can find  
the following statement in the [spooler] section.  
[spooler]

Then, open the file “system.ini” by using the “Notepad” application. You  
can find the following statement in the [386Enh] section.  
[386Enh]  
device=wpsljvpd.386  
WPSLPT1=1  
To disable this function, put a semicolon at the start of the sentences as  
follows;  
;device=wpsljvpd.386  
;WPSLPT1=1  
You must restart Windows® to make these modification effective.  
The modification disables the printer status reporting on your PC,  
however, you will be able to use the machine with no further problems.  
HP LaserJet 4 Plus:  
Please uninstall the Main Status windows by double clicking the Un-  
install Status windows in HP LaserJet group.  
NEC SuperScript 610/660:  
Please remove the NEC SuperScript driver by having NECDELET.EXE  
file in Disk 1 that is included with NEC printers.  
EPSON ActionLaser 1100/1400:  
Please remove the EPSON Action Laser 1100/1400 driver by having  
EPDELETE.EXE file in Windows® Printer Driver for these models run.  
LexmarkWinWriter 200:  
You have to modify the “win.ini” and “system.ini” files, which are in the  
Windows® directory to turn the printer’s bi-directional function off.

Replacing theToner Cartridge  
The machine can print up to 6,000 pages using a high yield toner  
cartridge (TN-6600). When the toner cartridge is running low, the display  
shows CHANGE TONER. The machine is supplied with a standard  
toner cartridge (TN-6300) that must be replaced after approximately  
3,000 pages. Actual page count will vary depending on your average  
document type.  
It is a good idea to keep a new toner cartridge ready for use when you  
see the toner low warning.  
Discard the used toner cartridge according to local regulations. If you are  
not sure of them, consult with Brother dealer for service. Be sure to seal  
the toner cartridge tightly so toner powder does not spill out of the  
cartridge. When discarding used toner cartridges, keep them separate  
from domestic garbage.  
It is recommended that you clean the machine when you replace the  
toner.  
Toner Empty Indicator  
When the toner cartridge is running low, the display shows CHANGE  
TONER and the Toner Empty LED on the control panel flashes on and  
off to indicate the toner is low.  
Display  
Toner Empty LED  
The Toner Empty LED light stays on and the display show TONER

WARNING  
Wait to unpack the toner cartridge until immediately before you  
install it into the machine. If a toner cartridge is left unpacked for a  
long period of time, the toner life is shortened.  
You should use only a genuine Brother toner cartridge (TN-6300/  
TN-6600 series), which is specially formulated to ensure top print  
quality. Using another brand of toner cartridge may void your  
machine’s warranty.  
Gently rock the toner cartridge from side to side five or six times.

Drum Life Considerations forYour Brother  
Fax Machine  
Your Brother fax machine uses a drum and toner assembly for document  
printing. The toner life is directly dependent upon the amount of black  
printing on the printed pages. The drum will last for 77 hours of  
continuous printing time, which in normal use will be up to 20,000 A4  
sized pages. Maintaining quality print during this period will depend on  
factors such as the number of pages printed per day, time between print  
jobs (and/or fax receptions), the quality of the printing paper and the  
environment in which the machine is used.  
The drum unit (DR-6000) is a consumable and to maintain an acceptable  
printing quality it should be replaced at the end of it’s 20,000 A4 page or  
77 hours life. Printing quality is a subjective issue and the drum should  
be replaced at a time when the printing quality becomes unacceptable to  
the user in relation to the documents being printed. The print quality will  
deteriorate over time and replacing the drum will return the printing  
quality to its optimum level. In order to maintain optimum print quality,  
we also recommend that the drum is replaced after 18 months service.  
To assist you, the machine will advise when approximately 5-15% of the  
drum life remains by showing the message CHANGE DRUM SOON on  
the display.  
This indication takes the number of pages printed and the total printing  
time into consideration. When the message appears we advise that a new  
drum be obtained for replacement at a convenient future time.  
For FAX-8350P, Press Menu, 0, 1.  
For MFC-9650/FAX-8750P, Press Menu, 1, 0, 1.

The following indication appears on the LCD for 5 sec, and the  
display returns automatically to MISCELLANEOUS menu.  
2
DRUM LIFE  
REMAINING:###%  
Press Stop to exit.  
3
We emphasise that even if the drum life remaining indicates 0%, you  
only need to replace the drum if the print quality is unacceptable. By  
using a drum past the 0% indication no damage will be caused to the  
machine and whilst the print quality remains acceptable then the drum  
may be used beyond its designed life.  
C H A P T E R S I X T E E N  
158  
Replacing the Drum Unit  
The machine uses a drum unit to create the print images on paper. If the  
screen displays CHANGE DRUM SOON, the drum unit is nearly at the  
end of its life. Prepare a new drum unit to replace the current one. You  
may need to order one from your Brother dealer.  
Even if the display shows CHANGE DRUM SOON, you may be able to  
continue to print without replacing the drum unit for a while. However, if  
there is a noticeable deterioration in the output print quality even before  
CHANGE DRUM SOON is shown, then the drum unit should be  
replaced. You should clean the machine when you replace the drum unit.  
WARNING  
When removing the drum unit, handle carefully because it contains toner.  
When you replace the drum unit, you should clean the machine.  
The drum unit is a consumable, and it is necessary to replace it  
periodically. There are many factors that determine the actual drum life,  
such as temperature, humidity, type of paper and toner that you use and  
the number of pages per print job, etc. The drum life is estimated at  
approximately 20,000 pages at 1 page per job. The actual number of  
pages your drum will print may be significantly less than these estimates.  
Because we have no control over the many factors that determine the  
actual drum life, we cannot guarantee a minimum number of pages that  
will be printed by your drum.  
For best performance, use only genuine Brother toner, and the product  
should be used only in a clean, dust-free environment with adequate  
ventilation.  
WARNING  
After you have just used the machine, some internal parts of the machine  
are extremely HOT! So please be careful.
