Voice Over Internet Protocol (Voip) - Brother MFC-J200 Basic User's Manual

Voice over Internet
Protocol (VoIP)
VoIP is a type of phone system that uses an
Internet connection instead of a traditional
telephone line. Telephone providers
frequently bundle VoIP together with Internet
and cable services.
Your machine may not work with some VoIP
systems. If you want to use your machine to
send and receive faxes on a VoIP system,
make sure that one end of your telephone
cord is connected to the socket labelled LINE
on your machine. The other end of the
telephone cord may be connected to a
modem, phone adapter, splitter, or other such
device.
Telephone and external devices
 If you have questions about how to
connect your machine to the VoIP
system, contact your VoIP provider.

After you have connected your machine to
the VoIP system, check for a dial tone. Lift the
external telephone's handset and listen for a
dial tone. If there is no dial tone, call your
VoIP provider.
If you are having problems sending or
receiving faxes over a VoIP system, we
recommend changing the machine's modem
speed to the Basic(for VoIP) setting
(see Telephone line interference / VoIP
on page 94).
NOTE
• VoIP (Voice over IP) is a type of phone
system that uses an Internet connection,
rather than a traditional phone line.
• Brother does not recommend the use of a
VoIP line. VoIP limitations in general can
cause some functions of the fax machine
not to work correctly.
