Changing Date/Time on fax Machine

This was taken directly from the Brother 2820 Manual:

Setting the Time

When the machine is not in use it will display the date and time. If you set up the Station ID the date and time displayed by your machine will be printed on every fax you send. If there is a power failure, you may have to reset the date and time. No other settings will be affected.

1 Press Menu/Set, 0, 2.
[2. Date/Time]
2 Enter the last two digits of the year.
Press Menu/Set.
3 Enter two digits for the month.
Press Menu/Set.
(For example, enter 09 for September,
or 10 for October.)
4 Enter two digits for the day.
Press Menu/Set.
(For example, enter 06 for 6th.)
5 Enter the time in 24-Hour format.
Press Menu/Set.
(For example, enter 15:25 for 3:25 P.M.)
6 Press Stop/Exit.
The LCD now shows the date and time
whenever the machine is idle in Fax
mode.
When the machine is in Sleep mode, the
LCD shows Sleep. (See Sleep Time on
page 2-8.)


Turning on Automatic Daylight Savings Time

You can set the machine to change automatically for Daylight Savings Time. It will reset itself forward one hour in the Spring and backward one hour in the Fall. Make sure you have set the correct date and time in the Date/Time setting.

1 Press Menu/Set, 1, 5.
[5. Auto Daylight]
2 Press Up Arrow or Down Arrow to select On (or Off).
Press Menu/Set.
3 Press Stop/Exit.

Hi there!

For you to send a fax with the Brother Fax 775 you can try these steps:

1. First make sure that you have a dial tone by lifting the handset or just by pressing the hook button. Once you have verified you have a dial tone press the hook button again to return to the main screen or hang up the handset. LCD should display the date & time

If you don't have a dial tone make sure that the telephone line cord is connected on the fax machine's Line jack. If you don't have a dial tone still connect it to another working outlet. If you don't have a dial tone still connect a working telephone on the wall jack to see if you'll get a dial tone. If you get a dial tone on the regular phone then problem is either with the line cord or the fax machine.

2. Once you have the date & time on the LCD screen, Load the document that you want to send on the automatic document feeder which is directly above the LCD screen.

3. The LCD screen should change from the date/time to "Enter Fax No. & Press Start" Once you got this screen dial the fax number and then press Start.

Hope this helps. Rate if it works.

Thanks!

Hi Deanna, unfortunately it is not possible on this unit to have the date and time stamped as that is produced by the senders machine, this feature is referred to as the station ID on your brother machine.

click MENU-then click use the arrow keys down to go to "initial setup" AND CLICK ok THEN ARROW KEYS DOWN UNTIL YOU GET TO DATE/TIME and then you will be able to enter the year, month, day, click ok after each one is entered, and there you go, VERY EASY. GOOD LUCK

press function-7-1-start- change the time and date on the machine. then hit start then stop

I got the time changed, I kept pushing buttons and apparently got the right one.

1.Open the front cover.

2.Press the options key on the control panel. The display will show
#REPLACE DRUM - 1.YES 2.NO#.

3.Press 1 to reset the drum count.

4.Close the front cover.

Hi,
Please change the Leithium battery fixed inside your fax machine, usually this the problem.
If the Date time is running in different date & time.

Please press Menu, then scrolle left of right arrow key. When you find set Date/Time enter the key mentioned in the Display key and change to your date & time.

After some time see if the date/time working normally. If not change the above mentioned battery.

regards.
