Turning on or off error correction

Normally, the HP LaserJet 3150 product monitors the signals on the
telephone line while it is sending a fax, which it sends in pieces. If the
HP LaserJet 3150 product detects an error signal while it is sending a
piece of the fax, it can resend that piece.

The factory default for this setting is On. Only change it to Off if you
are having trouble sending or receiving a fax and want to accept the
errors in the transmission. Turning the setting off might be useful
when you are trying to send a fax overseas or using a satellite
telephone connection.

then load and send the fax. Error correction is off only for this job.

You could also enter this symbol in any number you assign to a one-
touch key or speed-dial code. Error correction turns off every time you
use this one-touch key or speed-dial code and then turns back on again.
If the one-touch key or speed-dial code also appears in a group-dial
code, error correction is turned off just for that member of the group.
