I have a Brother 775 intelli fax machine. I can't send a fax. After loading the document, when I go to push in the fax number, the numbers do not register. I unplugged the machine from the power and the telephone line and it still will not work.

• if you are going to fax from the glass or scanner bed you should put your document face down on the glass
• if you are going to fax from the feeder (on the top of the machine) then you should load your document face up in the feeder

How to send a fax?

• when you want to send a fax ,press the FAX key to illuminate it in blue
• put the document either in the feeder or on the glass
• enter the fax number using the dial pad
• press START

The reason why your mahcine shows telephone because it can't recognize the document that you loaded in.
Try to remove the document from the feeder and make sure that your mach shows date & time. Load the document again in the feeder and the display should show enter fax # & start, that's the time you need to dial the fax # and hit the start key,
Hope this helps,

That could be the problem. Some area codes wont allow it to go through. Its being blocked for that it is not set up in that network. Good luck

1. Plug the phone line into the jack marked LINE.
2. Insert the document top-first, with the printed side away from you, into the top slot right behind the operator panel.
3. Enter the phone number, just as you would to dial any phone. If it's long distance, include 1 and the area code. If you're in an office where you need to dial 9 first, do that.
4. Press Start.

The fax will do everything else.

You may need to dial a prefix prior to dialing the phone number you're trying to fax. It could be as simple as putting a number "1" prior to dialing the number.

Have you tried another regular phone on the same jack? There is a small LIU board in the fax that the phone line plugs into and it is possibly bad. Inexpensive board from Brother. Buy a whole unit from EBAY cheaply.

I’m happy to help further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jayw_0e86fb055a7b73de

change the mode from TAD to F/T by pressing mode button on panel
Thanks

First make sure that the fax button has been pushed and is llit...

The 2820 should have a handset. In order to use manual transmission (when you get to hear all the beeps and whistles) you will need to load the document then pick up the handset. then dial the number, when you hear the recieving fax tone then hit the start button.

The 2820 should also have a hook hold button pressing this will allow you to hear the dial tone and the numbers you dial along with the receiving fax tone. If you dont hear anything when you press this button then you may want to use the volume buttons to increase the volume.

Also remember that if you have not picked up the handset or pressed he hook/hold button the unit will use automatic mode, which is to say that all you will do is load the document, dial the number, and then press the start button.

If your brother Intelli Fax 775 says..Memory full, erase message...this is what you do. Press "menu 84" then press the fax start button. Your fax will print every fax in memory and it will clear itself. To turn off the memory so this does not happen again..Press Menu then 82, then a up or down button, so it reads "off". Then the stop/exit button, and your done.
