Custom features on a single line.

If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, Caller ID, RingMaster, Voice Mail, an 
answering machine, an alarm system or other custom feature on a single telephone 
line with your machine, it may create a problem sending or receiving faxes.

For Example:

 If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other custom service and 

its signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax, 
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the faxes. 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.

glass strip, or one of the corona wires for printing is dirty. (See
