Outgoing Message (OGM)

Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception.

1Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows your fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.)

Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.

End your 20-second message by giving your Remote Activation Code for people sending manual faxes. For example:

“After the beep, leave a message or send a fax by pressing ✳ 5 1.”

We recommend beginning your OGM with an initial 5-second silence because the Brother machine cannot hear fax tones over a resonant or loud voice. You may try omitting this pause, but if your machine has trouble receiving, then you must rerecord the OGM to include it.

Connecting an External Telephone

Your fax machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering device) directly to your fax machine.

Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the left side of the fax machine.

Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays “EXT. TEL IN USE,” and, if the fax handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call on the external phone and switch to the fax, press
