Send a fax

You can send a fax in a variety of ways. Using the printer control panel, you can send a black and

white fax or a color fax. You can also send a fax manually from an attached phone. This allows you to

speak with the recipient before sending the fax.

This section contains the following topics:

Send a standard fax

Send a standard fax from the computer

Send a fax manually from a phone

Send a fax using monitor dialing

Schedule a fax to send later

Send a fax in Error Correction Mode

Send a standard fax

You can easily send a single- or multiple-page black-and-white or color fax by using the printer

control panel.

NOTE:

If you need to print confirmation that your faxes were successfully sent, fax confirmation

must be enabled.

TIP:

You can also send a fax manually from a phone or by using monitor dialing. These features

allow you to control the pace of your dialing. They are also useful when you want to use a calling card

to charge the call and you have to respond to tone prompts while dialing.
