Getting started

Inserting a document

1

Adjust the document guides — by sliding either of them to the left or right —
to fit the page(s) you’re faxing. Your fax machine’s automatic document feeder
will hold up to 50 pages.

2

If you’re sending a multi-page document, “fan”
the pages slightly.

3

Insert the document face up. The fax machine
“grabs” the first page of the document and
positions it for faxing. (Readjust the document
guides to fit the document, if needed.)

The

LCD

now shows the current scanning width

setting (see “

A

4,

B

4,

A

3” in the Glossary that

begins on page 3.15) and the amount of memory
available:

Sending a fax

To fax a document:

1

Insert the document.

When a document is in the feeder, the

LCD

shows the current scanning width

and the amount of memory available:

2

Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.
Press

RESOLUTION

to change the resolution.

Press

CONTRAST

to change the contrast.

3

Adjust memory transmission if necessary.
Press

MEMORY TRANSMIT

to toggle memory transmission on and off.

4

Enter the fax number.
Also, enter any access codes necessary, just as you would for a regular phone
call. (Example: Enter 9 to “dial out” from an office telephone system, or 1 for
long-distance.)

5

Press

START

.

By pressing

START

, you’ve just given your machine a command. In turn, your

machine gives this action a command number as it scans the fax document.

This command number appears on the first line of the LCD for a few seconds:

You’ll need this command number to cancel the transmission or to print a
stored document (see pages 1.16).

6

Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialling.

If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the
first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it
makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory
while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document
into memory. (To set Quick Memory transmission, see pages 2.29.)

If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your machine first
scans the document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes
contact, your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.

If the fax is set for non-memory transmission, your machine simply dials
the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine feeds the document
through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

Note: The more “stuff” (called black coverage) your machine “sees” on a

page, the more slowly the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And
even if the page is relatively clean, sending it in greyscale mode or at
certain resolutions makes your machine “see” more “stuff.”
The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Important: If you want to cancel a transmission while scanning the docu-

ment, press the

STOP

key.

If you want to cancel a transmission in progress, use the Review
Commands
function. See “Review Commands, an introduction”
page 1.16.
