2840 Fax Goes Into Deep Sleep, Cannot Receive Faxes, What Now?

Brother fax 2840 is in deep sleep. I have adjusted timer, I have pushed all buttons, turned off & on, unplugged, but cannot get it to receive faxes. I have the manual and have tried adjusting everything. It will send faxes but not receive. There is paper in the tray. I am at my wits end, why is it not working?!
