Simultaneous Printing/Faxing

Your machine can print data from your computer while sending or receiving a
fax, or while scanning information into the computer. However, when the
machine is copying or receiving a fax on paper, it pauses the PC printing
operation, and then resumes when copying or fax receiving is complete. Fax
sending continues during PC printing. (See

Acceptable Paper

, Page 2-6.)

Choosing Acceptable Paper

We recommend that you test paper (especially special sizes and types of paper)
on the machine before purchasing large quantities.

Avoid feeding carrier sheets with labels exposed, or your machine will be
damaged.

Avoid using coated paper, such as vinyl coated paper.

Avoid using preprinted or highly textured paper.

For optimum printing, use a recommended type of paper, especially plain paper
and transparencies. For more information on paper specifications, consult your
nearest Brother authorized sales representative or the place where you
purchased your machine.

Use labels or transparencies that are designed for use in laser printers.

For the best print quality, we recommend using long-grained paper.

If you are using special paper, and the paper has problems feeding from the
paper cassette, try again using the manual feed slot.

You can use recycled paper in this machine.
