Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes. For example: "After the

beginning your OGM with an initial 5 second silence because the machine cannot hear fax tones over a loud voice. You may try leaving out this pause, but if
your machine has trouble receiving, then you should re-record the OGM to include it. 1 1 (Example for Australia) 1 TAD 55 Chapter 7 Multi-Line
connections (PABX) Most offices use a central telephone system. Brother recommends that all our Fax/MFC machines be 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.
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. Brother does not recommend the use of a PABX line. PABX limitations in
general can cause some functions of the fax machine not to work correctly. 7 External and extension phones Operation from extension telephones If you
answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external telephone that is correctly connected to the machine into the correct socket on the machine, you
