The machine's recall feature supports timed break recall only (TBR). TBR will work with most PBX systems allowing you to gain access to an outside line, or transfer calls to another extension.
Chapter 6 Multi-line connections (PBX) IMPORTANT DO NOT connect a TAD elsewhere on the same telephone line. Settings 6 The external TAD must be connected as shown in the previous illustration. a Set your external TAD to one or two rings.

A Routine maintenance Replacing the ink cartridges Your machine is equipped with an ink dot counter. The ink dot counter automatically monitors the level of ink in each of the 4 cartridges. When the machine detects an ink cartridge is running out of ink, the machine will tell you with a message on the LCD. A a Open the ink cartridge cover. If one or more of the ink cartridges have reached the end of their life, the LCD shows B&W Print Only or Cannot Print.
d Turn the green knob on the protective yellow cap clockwise until it clicks to release the vacuum seal, then remove the cap (1). f Gently push the ink cartridge until it clicks, and then close the ink cartridge cover. g The machine will automatically reset the ink dot counter. 1 Note e Each colour has its own correct position. Insert the ink cartridge in the direction of the arrow on the label.
Routine maintenance IMPORTANT • DO NOT take out ink cartridges if you do not need to replace them. If you do so, it may reduce the ink quantity and the machine will not know the quantity of ink left in the cartridge. • DO NOT touch the cartridge insertion slots. If you do so, the ink may stain your skin. Cleaning and checking the machine Cleaning the scanner glass a • If ink gets on your skin or clothing immediately wash it off with soap or detergent. A Lift the document cover (1).
Note In addition to cleaning the glass strip with a non-flammable glass cleaner, run your finger tip over the glass strip to see if you can feel anything on it. If you feel dirt or debris, clean the glass strip again concentrating on that area. You may need to repeat the cleaning process three or four times. To test, make a copy after each cleaning attempt. Cleaning the paper pick-up rollers a Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine.
Routine maintenance Cleaning the print head To maintain good print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed. You can start the cleaning process manually if there is a print quality problem. Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in the text or graphics, or blank text on your printed pages. You can clean Black only, three colours at a time (Cyan/Yellow/Magenta), or all four colours at once. Cleaning the print head consumes ink.
