Chapter 1 About fax machines How can you avoid possible problems? Custom features A very good way to avoid problems like the one mentioned, is to get a second phone number on your present phone line. Do you have Voice Mail on the phone line? If you have Voice Mail on the phone line where you will install your new machine, there is a strong possibility that Voice Mail and the machine may conflict with each other while receiving incoming calls.
General Information Fax tones and handshake ECM (Error Correction Mode) 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 Black Start or Color Start and they will continue for about 60 seconds after dialing. During that time, the sending machine must begin the “handshake” or connection with the receiving machine.
2 Loading paper and documents Acceptable paper and other media Type and size of paper The machine loads paper from the installed standard paper tray or optional lower tray. Recommended paper The recommended paper for this machine is: Xerox 4200, Hammermill Laserprint or equivalent ■ To get the best output quality and to avoid any damage, use smooth white paper. ■ Before you buy a lot of paper, please test some to make sure that the paper is suitable. ■ Use neutral paper.
Loading paper and documents Paper capacity of the paper trays Standard Paper Tray (Tray 1) A4, Letter, B5 (JIS/ISO), A4, Letter, Legal, B5 (JIS/ISO), Executive Executive, A5, COM10, DL, 4.1 x 8.3 in. to 8.5 x 11.7 in.

Chapter 2 Handling and using special paper Types of paper to avoid CAUTION The machine is designed to work well with most types of xerographic and bond paper. However, some paper variables may have an effect on print quality or handling reliability. Always test samples of paper before purchasing to ensure desirable performance. Some important guidelines when selecting paper are: ■ Supplier should be informed that the paper or envelopes will be used in a color laser machine.
Loading paper and documents Envelopes Note Most envelopes will be suitable for your machine. However, some envelopes will have feed and print-quality problems because of the way they have been made. A suitable envelope should have edges with straight, well-creased folds and the leading edge should not be thicker than two pieces of paper. The envelope should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy construction.
Chapter 2 Types of envelopes to avoid CAUTION Do not use envelopes: ■ that are damaged, curled, wrinkled, or an unusual shape ■ that are extremely shiny or textured ■ with clasps, snaps or tie strings ■ with self-adhesive closures ■ that are of a baggy construction ■ that are not sharply creased ■ that are embossed (have raised writing on them) ■ that were previously printed by a laser machine ■ that are pre-printed on the inside ■ that cannot be arranged neatly when stacked ■ that are made of paper that w
Loading paper and documents Labels and transparencies The machine will print on most types of labels and transparencies designed for use with a laser machine. Labels should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based since such material is more stable at the high temperatures in the fusing unit. Adhesives should not come in contact with any part of the machine, because the label stock may stick to the OPC belt or rollers and cause jams and print quality problems.
Chapter 2 Printable area Landscape 1 The edges of the paper that cannot be printed on are shown below.

Loading paper and documents Loading paper and envelopes To load paper or other media in the paper tray 1 The machine can feed paper from the standard paper tray or optional lower tray. Pull the paper tray completely out of the machine. 2 When you put paper into the paper tray, note the following: ■ The machine detects standard paper sizes in the paper trays. If you load small size paper or envelopes, you will need to manually set the paper size in the Small Paper setting. (See Paper Size on page 3-9.
Chapter 2 3 Squeeze the snap lock on the end of the front paper guide. Slide the front paper guide to the position for the size of paper you are using. Release the snap lock. Squeeze and slide the left hand side paper guide to the paper size you are using, and release it. 5 Put the paper in the tray with the recommended print side face up. PAPER ENVELOPE LABEL TRANSPARENCY CARDSTOCK ABC 6 4 Lower the front tray cover. ABC Fan the stack of paper well to avoid paper jams and mis-feeds.
Loading paper and documents Note When you put paper in the paper tray, please remember the following: ■ Check that the paper is flat in the tray and below the maximum paper mark, and that the paper guides are touching the sides of the paper stack. ■ The side to be printed on must be face up. Printing on envelopes Adjust the paper length and width guides to fit the envelopes that are going to be used. You can load envelopes into the standard paper tray only.
Chapter 2 1 2 Fan the pages well. Make sure you put the documents face up, top edge first in the ADF until you feel them touch the feed roller. Adjust the paper guides to fit the width of your documents. Using the scanner glass You can use the scanner glass to fax, copy or scan pages of a book or one page at a time. Documents can be up to 8.5 in. (215.9 mm) wide and 11 in. (297 mm) long. Note To use the scanner glass, the ADF must be empty. 1 2 Lift the document cover.
3 Setup Date and Time Automatic Daylight Savings Time When the machine is not in use it will display the date and time. If you set up the Station ID the date and time displayed by your machine will be printed on every fax you send. If there is a power failure, you may have to reset the date and time. No other settings will be affected. You can set the machine to change automatically for Daylight Savings Time. It will reset itself forward one hour in the Spring and backward one hour in the Fall.
Chapter 3 Station ID Note You should store your name or company name and fax number so they print on all fax pages you send. 1 Press Menu/Set, 0, 3.

(If the telephone number and fax number are the same, enter the same number again.) Note ▲ ■ You cannot enter a hyphen in the number. To enter a space press once between numbers.
Setup LCD Contrast Roll over phone lines You can change the contrast to help the LCD look lighter or darker. 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. 1 Press Menu/Set, 1, 7. General Setup 7.LCD Contrast 2 Press ▲ to increase the contrast. —OR— Press ▼ to decrease the contrast. Press Menu/Set.
Chapter 3 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.
Setup 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 machine for you. It is advisable to have a separate line for the machine. Connecting an external or extension telephone You can connect a separate telephone to your machine as shown in the diagram below.
Chapter 3 The TAD must answer within four rings (the recommended setting is two rings). The machine cannot hear CNG tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only 8 to 10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax “handshake”. Make sure you carefully follow the instructions in this guide for recording your outgoing message. We do not recommend using the toll saver feature on your external answering machine if it exceeds five rings.
Setup 5 6 Set the TAD to answer calls. Ecology features Set the Receive Mode to External TAD. (See Receive Mode on page 6-1.) Toner Save Recording outgoing message (OGM) on an external TAD You can conserve toner using this feature. When you set Toner Save to On, print appears lighter. The default setting is Off. Timing is important in recording this message. 1 1 2 3 Record 5 seconds of silence at the beginning of your message.
Chapter 3 Sleep Time Mode Timer Setting the Sleep Time reduces power consumption by turning off the fuser inside the machine while it is idle. You can choose how long the machine is idle (from 00 to 99 minutes) before it goes into sleep mode. The timer is automatically reset when the machine receives a Fax or PC data or makes a copy.
