Getting started

Sending a fax using the

ADF

1

If the machine is already in Fax mode, skip to step 2.
If the machine is in Copy mode, press

COPY

/

FAX

to change to Fax mode.

2

Adjust the document guides — by sliding either of them to the left or right —
to fit the page(s) you’ll be faxing. Your fax machine’s automatic document
feeder will hold up to 50 pages of letter-sized paper, 25 pages of legal-sized
paper or 15 pages of 11

″ ×

17

(ledger)-sized paper.

3

Insert the document face up. When a document is in the feeder, the

LCD

shows the current scanning width (see “

A

4,

B

4,

A

3” in the Glossary beginning

on page 3.17) and the amount of memory available:

4

Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.
Press

RESOLUTION

to change the resolution.

Press

CONTRAST

to change the contrast.

5

Adjust memory transmission if necessary.
Press

MEMORY TRANSMIT

to toggle memory transmission on and off.

6

Enter the fax number.
Also, enter any access codes necessary, just as you would for a regular phone
call. (Example: Enter 9 to “dial out” from an office telephone system, or 1 for
long-distance.)

7

Press

START

.

By pressing

START

, you’ve just given your machine a command. In turn, your

machine gives this action a command number as it scans the fax document.

This command number appears on the first line of the

LCD

for a few seconds:

You’ll need to know this command number if you later wish to cancel the
transmission or to print a stored document (see pages 1.23).

Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialing.
• If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the

first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it
makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory
while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document
into memory. (To set Quick Memory transmission, see pages 2.31.)

• If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your fax scans the

entire document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes con-
tact, your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.

• If the fax is set for non-memory transmission, your machine simply dials

the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine feeds the document
through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

Note: The more “stuff” (called black coverage) your machine “sees” on a

page, the more slowly the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And
even if the page is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or at
certain resolutions makes your machine “see” more “stuff.”
The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Important: If you want to cancel a transmission while scanning the docu-

ment, press the

STOP

key.

If you want to cancel a transmission in progress, use the Review
Commands
function. See “Review Commands, an introduction”
page 1.23.

9

At the end of the operation, your fax machine beeps and displays:

Important: Whenever you transmit a document, what actually appears on

the top line of the display depends on information stored in the
remote fax. The line may even be blank.

Note: If the call fails, see “Redialing,” page 1.22.
