Were the documents fed directly into the printer, or were they fed from the computer program for the fax? On my 885CW, there is a sub directory for Send, and one for Receive in the Brother program directory. Have you checked that?
The article on retaining all faxes, was talking about big office units like you find at Kinko's. I don't think any of these home "All in Ones" have any type of "drive" to store anything on.
