Transmission/Reception of Faxes Using ECM
This machine is set to send/receive faxes in Error Correction Mode (ECM). If the recipient's fax machine
is compatible with ECM, ECM automatically corrects errors and resends the fax.
Note
If the sender's or recipient's fax machine is not compatible with ECM, the fax will be sent/received
without automatic error correction.
To receive color faxes, make sure that ECM RX is set to ON. For details, see ECM RX .
You can disable ECM transmission/reception. For details, see ECM TX or ECM RX .
Transmission may take longer when ECM is enabled.
