|
| on a single phone line with your FAX/MFC, it may | ||
|
| create a problem sending or receiving fax data. | ||
|
| Example #1: If you are having a telephone | ||
|
| conversation and a fax communication signal | ||
|
| comes through on your Call Waiting Call ID | ||
|
| feature, you can verify that the second call is a fax | ||
|
| by switching to it. You have the option to receive | ||
|
| the fax call, by asking the first caller to hang up to | ||
|
| clear the line. | ||
|
| Example #2: If you are sending or receiving a fax | ||
|
| message while a Call Waiting Caller ID (or other | ||
|
| 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. | ||
