About fax machines If you’ve never used a fax machine before, it might seem a little mysterious. But you’ll soon recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily. Custom features Do you have Voice Mail on the phone line? If you have Voice Mail on the phone line where you will install your new fax machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine may conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls.
Fax tones and handshake When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones (CNG tones). These are quiet, intermittent beeps every 4-seconds. You’ll hear them after you dial and press Fax Start and they will continue for about 60 seconds after dialing. During that time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” with the receiving machine. Each time you use automatic procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone line.
ECM (Error Correction Mode) The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM transmissions are only possible between machines that both have this feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are continuously being checked by the machine. The fax machine must have enough memory for this feature to work.
Connections Connecting an external telephone Your machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular phone. However you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone answering device) directly to the fax machine. Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled EXT. on the back side of the fax machine. . Extension Telephone External Telephone Whenever this external phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT.
Connecting an external telephone answering device (TAD) Sequence You may choose to connect an answering device. However, when you have an external TAD on the same telephone line as the fax machine, the TAD answers all calls and the fax machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it hears them, the fax machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it doesn’t hear CNG tones, the fax machine lets the TAD continue playing your outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message.
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line (unless you have the Distinctive Ring service). TAD TAD Connections The external TAD must be plugged into the back side of the fax machine, into the jack labeled EXT. The fax machine cannot work properly if you plug the TAD into a wall jack (unless you are using Distinctive Ring). 1 Plug the telephone line cord from the wall jack into the back side of the fax machine, in the jack labeled LINE.
Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD Timing is important in recording this message. The message sets up the ways to handle both manual and automatic fax reception. 1 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message. (This allows the fax machine time to listen for the fax CNG tones of automatic transmissions before they stop.) 2 Limit your speaking to 20 seconds. 3 End your 20-second message by giving your Fax Receive Code for people sending manual faxes.
Special line considerations Roll Over phone lines A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines that pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are usually passed down or “rolled over” to the next available phone line in a preset order. The fax machine can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last number in the sequence, so the call cannot roll away.
Converting telephone wall outlets There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 jack. The first two ways may require assistance from the telephone company. You can change the wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump one of the phone numbers to it. The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex adapter into an RJ14 outlet.
Installing fax machine, external two-line TAD and two-line telephone When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device (TAD) and a two-line telephone, the fax machine must be isolated on one line at both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is to put the fax machine on Line 2, which is explained in the following steps. The back of the two-line TAD must have two telephone jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2.
Multi-Line Connections (PBX) Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple to connect the machine to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system and ask them to connect the Fax machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the Fax machine. You can then leave the Fax machine in FAX ONLY mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
2 Paper About paper Handling and using special paper ■ Store paper in its original packaging, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat. Paper capacity of the paper tray Paper Size Number of sheets 17 lb 50 23.4 lb 30 Paper specifications for the paper tray Weight 17 to 23.4 lb (64 to 90 g/m2) Thickness 0.003 to 0.0039 in. (0.08 to 0.10 mm) The fax machine can only scan an image 8.2 in. (208 mm) wide, regardless of how wide the paper is.
How to load paper To load paper 1 Fan the stack of paper well to avoid paper jams and mis-feeds. Tap the stack of paper so the edges are even. 2 Gently insert the paper. Make sure the print side is towards you.

If you have extension phones on the same line as the fax machine or subscribe to the telephone company’s Distinctive Ring service, keep the Ring Delay setting of 4. (See Easy Receive on page 5-5 and Operation from extension telephones on page 5-8.) 1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 1. 1.RING DELAY 2 Press or to select how many times the line rings before the fax machine answers (00-04).
Setting the F/T Ring Time (FAX/TEL mode only) If you set the Receive Mode to FAX/TEL, you’ll need to decide how long the fax machine will signal you with its special pseudo/double-ring when you have a voice call. (If it’s a fax call, the fax machine prints the fax.) This ringing happens after the initial ringing from the phone company. Only the fax machine rings (for 20, 30, 40 or 70 seconds) and no other phones on the same line will ring with the special pseudo/double-ring.
Easy Receive When you use this feature, you don’t have to press Fax Start or the Fax Receive Code 5 1 when you answer a fax call. Selecting ON allows the fax machine to receive fax calls automatically, even if you lift the handset of an extension or external phone. When you see RECEIVE on the LCD or when you hear “chirps” through the handset of an extension phone connected to another wall jack (phone socket), just replace the handset and the fax machine will do the rest.
Printing a reduced incoming fax If you choose AUTO, the fax machine automatically reduces an incoming fax to fit on one page of letter or legal size paper, regardless of the paper size of the original. The fax machine calculates the reduction ratio by using the page size of the original and your Paper Size setting (Menu, 2, 6). 1 2 3 Press Menu/Set, 2, 5. 5.REDUCTION Use or to select the reduction ratio you want–Auto, 100%, 93%, 87%, or 75%.

When you change the kind of paper in the paper tray, you will need to change the setting for paper size, so your machine will know how to fit the incoming fax on the page. You can also select the level of page reduction to fit the paper in your machine. 1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 6. 6.PAPER 2 Press or to select LETTER, LEGAL or A4. Press Menu/Set.
Advanced receiving operations Operation from extension telephones If you answer a fax call on an extension telephone, or an external telephone in the EXT. jack, you can make the fax machine take the call by using the Fax Receive Code. When you press the Fax 5 1, the fax machine starts to receive a fax. Receive Code (See Easy Receive on page 5-5.) If the fax machine answers a voice call and pseudo/double-rings for you to take over, use the Telephone Answer Code # 5 1 to take the call at an extension phone.
Using a cordless external handset If your cordless telephone is connected to the EXT. jack of the fax machine and you typically carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay. If you let the fax machine answer first, you will have to answer using the cordless and then go to the fax machine so you can press Hook to transfer the call to the cordless handset. Changing the remote codes Remote Codes might not work with some telephone systems. The 5 1.
Printing a fax from the memory If you set Fax Storage to ON for Remote Retrieval, you can still print a fax from the memory when you are at the fax machine. (See Setting Fax Storage on page 8-3.) 1 Press Menu/Set, 8, 4. 4.PRINT FAX 2 Press Fax Start. Polling Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can use the fax machine to ‘poll’ other machines, or you can have someone poll the fax machine. Everyone who is involved in Polling needs to set up their fax machines for Polling.
Setting up Sequential Polling Receive The fax machine can ask for faxes from several fax units in a single operation (Sequential Polling Receive). Afterwards, a Sequential Polling Report will be printed. 1 Press Menu/Set, 2, 7. 7.POLLING RX 2 Enter the fax machines you want to poll. You must press Menu/Set between each fax number. 3 Press Fax Start. The fax machine will poll each number or Group number in turn to receive a fax. Press Stop/Exit while the machine is dialing to cancel the polling process.
Telephone services The fax machine supports the Distinctive Ring telephone service that some telephone companies offer. If you have Voice Mail, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Call ID, RingMaster, an answering service, an alarm system or other custom features on your telephone line, it may affect the way the fax machine works. (See Custom features on a single line on page 12-7.) If you have Voice Mail on your phone line, please read the following carefully.
Do you have Voice Mail? If you have Voice Mail on the phone line that you will install your new fax machine on, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the fax machine will conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls. However, this Distinctive Ring feature allows you to use more than one number on your line, so both Voice Mail and the fax machine can work together without any problems. If each one has a separate phone number, neither will interfere with the other’s operations.
■ The fax machine will only answer calls to its registered number. ■ The first two rings are silent on the fax machine. This is because the fax must «listen» to the ring pattern (to compare it to the pattern that was ‘registered’). (Other telephones on the same line will ring.) ■ If you program the fax machine properly, it will recognize the registered ring pattern of the ‘fax number’ within 2 ring patterns and then answer with a fax tone. When the ‘voice number’ is called, the fax machine will not answer.
Caller ID The Caller ID feature of your machine lets you use the Caller ID subscriber service offered by many local telephone companies. After at least two rings, the LCD shows the telephone number of your caller (or up to 16 characters of the name, if available). Once you pick up the handset the Caller ID information disappears from the LCD, but the call information remains stored in the Caller ID memory.
