If you are having problems sending or
receiving a fax due to possible interference on
the telephone line or if you are using a VoIP
system, we recommend changing the modem
speed to minimise errors in fax operations.

• VoIP (Voice over IP) is a type of phone
system that uses an Internet
connection, rather than a traditional
phone line.
• Brother does not recommend the use
of a VoIP line. VoIP limitations in
general can cause some functions of
the fax machine not to work correctly.
