Beyond the Basics
Reduction margin
Your fax machine’s reduction margin is measured in millimetres (mm). We’ll define
reduction margin by explaining how it’s used:
When a fax message enters your machine’s electronic brain, the machine measures
the message’s length and compares it to (a) the length of your selected paper plus
(b) the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming message is shorter
than (a) and (b) put together, your machine prints the message on just one sheet.
If it’s longer, your machine prints the message on more than one sheet.
Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 24mm will
print most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and
then, only if you have problems with it, select different settings.
Half-page reception
Half-page reception can conserve paper if some of the faxes you receive are half-
page, “memo-sized” messages. When activated, this feature tells the machine to
combine two of these half-page receptions onto a single sheet. Half-page reception
only combines half-page messages sent back-to-back during the same transmission.
It won’t combine two half-page faxes from separate transmissions.

Copy settings
You can set two parameters for copying:
• Copy reduction rate — Works the same way as the print reduction rate (see page
2.2 for more details).
• Reduction margin — Serves the same purpose as the reduction margin for
printing (see “Reduction margin,” left column).
You set both parameters in the same operation:
Note: The manufacturer suggests a reduction margin of 00 for your copy settings.
