Suggestions
If you have Caller ID, an answering machine, alarm
system or any other custom feature on a single phone
line with your MFC, it may create a problem sending or
receiving fax data.
For example: If you are sending or receiving a fax
message while a custom feature signal comes through on
the line, the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt
the fax data. Brother's ECM 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 line with no custom
features is recommended.
Suggestions
Clean the nozzles (see "Cleaning the Ink Cartridges" and
"Cleaning the Cartridge Carrier" on p. 2-15~2-17). If you
cleaned the cartridge carrier and the print has not
improved, call Brother Customer Service at
1-800-284-4329 (USA),
1-800-853-6660 (from within Canada) or
1-514-685-6464 (from within Montreal).
