Option Description
Redial
Times
You can specify the number of redial attempts. If you
enter 0, the machine will not redial.
Redial Term Your machine can automatically redial a remote fax
machine if it was busy. You can set an interval
between attempts.
Prefix Dial You can set a prefix of up to five digits. This number
dials before any automatic dial number is started. It is
useful for accessing a PBX exchange.
ECM Mode
a
This mode helps with poor line quality and makes
sure any faxes you send are sent smoothly to any
other ECM-equipped fax machine. Sending a fax
using ECM may take more time.
Receiving options
Sent Report You can set your machine to print a confirmation
report showing whether a transmission was
successful, how many pages were sent, and more.
The available options are On, Off, and On-Error,
which prints only when a transmission is not
successful.

You can prevent the actual faxed material from being
included in the confirmation report for privacy or
security protection.
Dial Mode
This setting may not be available depending on your
country. If you cannot reach this option, your machine
does not support this feature.
You can set the dial mode for your machine to either
tone dialing or pulse dialing. If you have a public
telephone system or a private branch exchange
(PBX) system, you may need to select Pulse.
Contact your local telephone company if you are not
sure which dial mode to use.
Note
If you select Pulse, some phone system features
might not be available. It can also take longer to dial
a fax or phone number.
