Preparing Documents
- Try to use good quality documents for your transmissions. Docu-
ments that are typed or created in felt-tip black ink on white (or light)
paper work best.
- Do not send documents which are not rectangular.
- Never use documents that have wet or sticky surfaces, wrinkles,
staples or paper clips. However, your MFP machine can transmit
documents that have been subject to normal wear, such as docu-
ments with staple holes, letter folds and minor corner folds.
- If you are not sure how a document will fax, try making a copy first
on your MFP machine (load the document face down and press the
COPY key).
- If your documents are bent, creased or torn, make a copy on a
photocopier and send the copy instead. You can also use a photo-
copier to enlarge or reduce documents before sending.
Document Size
All documents must have a minimum width of 148 mm (5.8") and a
minimum length of 128 mm (5"). Documents cannot be wider than 216
mm (8.5") or longer than 356 mm (14").
Multiple Page Documents
Your MFP machine can scan paper with a base weight between 16
pounds (60 g/m
2 ) and 28 pounds (105 g/m 2 ). You can load up to 20
sheets of standard 20-pound paper (like photocopier paper) at the same
time. If you use a heavier paper, you can load up to 15 sheets. For very
heavy paper, load and send pages sheet-by-sheet.
When loading multiple-page documents, do not load paper which is
thinner than 0.08 mm or thicker than 0.13 mm. For documents, do not
load paper which is thinner than 0.06 mm or thicker than 0.15 mm.
