recipient before sending the fax. If a fax machine answers the call, you can send the fax directly to

the fax machine when you hear the fax tones from the receiving fax machine.

To send a fax manually from an extension phone

1.

Load your original print-side down in the left-rear corner of the scanner glass or print-side up in

the ADF.

For more information, see Load an original on the scanner glass on page 27 or Load an original

in the document feeder on page 28.

NOTE: If you are using the scanner glass, ensure that the automatic document feeder is

empty. Otherwise, the printer will sense the document in the ADF instead of the paper on the

scanner glass.

2.

From the printer control panel display, touch Fax.

3.

Dial the number by using the keypad on the phone that is connected to the printer.

NOTE: Do not use the keypad on the control panel of the printer when manually sending a fax.

You must use the keypad on your phone to dial the recipient's number.

4.

If the recipient answers the telephone, you can engage in a conversation before sending your

fax.

NOTE: If a fax machine answers the call, you will hear fax tones from the receiving fax

machine. Proceed to the next step to transmit the fax.

5.

When you are ready to send the fax, touch Black or Color.

NOTE: If prompted, select Send Fax.

If you were on the phone with the recipient, ask the recipient to start receiving the fax when they

hear fax tones on the fax machine.

The telephone line is silent while the fax is transmitting. At this point, you can hang up the

telephone. If you want to continue speaking with the recipient, remain on the line until the fax

transmission is complete.

Send a fax using monitor dialing

Monitor dialing allows you to dial a number from the printer control panel as you would dial a regular

telephone. When you send a fax using monitor dialing, you can hear the dial tones, telephone

prompts, or other sounds through the speakers on the printer. This enables you to respond to

prompts while dialing, as well as control the pace of your dialing.

TIP: If you are using a calling card and do not enter your PIN fast enough, the printer might start

sending fax tones too soon and cause your PIN not to be recognized by the calling card service. If

this is the case, you can create a speed dial entry to store the PIN for your calling card. For more

information, see Set up speed-dial entries on page 74.

NOTE: Make sure the volume is turned on to hear a dial tone.
