Setting Ring Delay 
The Ring Delay setting determines the number of times the machine rings 
before it answers.  If you have extension phones on the same line as the machine, 
keep the Ring Delay default setting of  4. (See 
Easy Receive, Page 5-3 and 
Operation from Extension Telephone or External Telephone and For FAX/TEL Mode 
Only
, Page 5-5.)
1Press Menu, 2, 1, 1.

the line rings before the machine answers 
(00 – 04), and then press Set. (If you 
select 00, the line doesn’t ring at all.)
3Press Stop/Exit.
Setting F/T Ring Time (For FAX/TEL Mode Only)
If you set the receive mode to FAX/TEL, you’ll need to determine how long the 
machine will send you its special double-ring when you have a voice call.  This 
ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company.  Only the 
machine rings, for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds; no other phones on the same line 
ring the special double-ring. However, you can answer the call on any extension 
phone (in a separate wall jack) on the same line as the machine. (See Operation 
from Extension Telephone, page 5-5.)

machine will ring to alert you that you have a voice call, and then press Set.
3Press Stop/Exit.
Now, when a call comes in and the 
machine is set to FAX/TEL mode, all 
phones on this line will ring the number of times you selected in Ring Delay. 
You can let the machine pick up and detect if it’s a fax or voice call. If it’s a fax 
call, the machine prints the fax. If it’s a voice call, the machine signals you with 
a double-ring for the length of time you selected in F/T Ring Time.
Even if the caller hangs up during the double-ringing, the machine continues 
for the set time.

Easy Receive
When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start when you answer 
a fax call and hear calling beeps. Just hold the handset and wait a few seconds. 
When you see RECEIVING on the LCD or when you hear “chirps” through the 
handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack, just replace the 
handset. Your machine does the rest. Selecting ON allows the machine to 
receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or 
external phone. Selecting SEMI lets the machine receive the call only if you’ve 
answered it at the Brother machine. Selecting OFF means you’ll have to 
activate the machine yourself, by pressing Fax Start—OR—by pressing 
 5 1 if you are not at the machine.
If you’ve set this feature to ON, but your machine doesn’t automatically connect 
a fax call when you lift an external or extension phone handset, press the Fax 
Receive code  5 1. At the machine, lift the handset and then press Fax Start.
