Faxing 121 Initial fax setup Many countries and regions require outgoing faxes to contain the following information in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page, or on the first page of the transmission: fax name (identification of the business, other entity, or individual sending the message) and fax number (telephone number of the sending fax machine, business, other entity, or individual). For more information, see “Regulatory notices for telecommunication terminal equipment” on page 370.
Faxing Choosing a fax connection Scenario 1: Standard telephone line Setup 1: Printer is connected to a dedicated fax line 122
Faxing 123 To connect: 1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer. 2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack. Tips for this setup: • You can set the printer to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On) or manually (Auto Answer Off). • If you want to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On), then set the printer to pick up on any number of rings that you want.
Faxing 124 Connected to different wall jacks PHONE LINE To connect: 1 Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the printer to the port of the printer. 2 Connect the other end of the telephone cable to an active analog wall jack. Tips for this setup: • If you have only one telephone number on your line, then you need to set the printer to receive faxes automatically (Auto Answer On). • Set the printer to pick up calls two rings after the answering machine.
Faxing 125 • If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service provided by your telephone company, then make sure that you set the correct ring pattern for the printer. Otherwise, the printer does not receive faxes even if you have set it to receive faxes automatically.
Faxing 126 Tips for this setup: • This setup works best if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service. If you have distinctive ring service, then make sure that you set the correct ring pattern for the printer. Otherwise, the printer does not receive faxes even if you have set it to receive faxes automatically. • If you have only one telephone number on your line, then you need to set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off).
Faxing 127 To minimize interference between the two channels and ensure a quality connection, you need to install a DSL filter for the analog devices (fax machine, telephone, answering machine) in your network.

Load paper as shown in the illustration. • Make sure the guides in the tray or the multipurpose feeder are properly positioned and are not pressing tightly against the paper or envelopes. • Push the tray firmly into the printer after loading paper. • If you are loading prepunched paper for use with the staple finisher, then make sure the holes on the long edge of the paper are on the right side of the tray.
Clearing jams 269 Allow the paper to enter the optional mailbox bins properly • Make sure to adjust the bin extender so that the paper size indicators match the size of the paper used. Notes: – If the bin extender is shorter than the size of the paper you are printing on, then the paper causes a jam in the mailbox bin. For example, if you are printing on a legal-size paper and the bin extender is set to lettersize, then a jam occurs.
Clearing jams 270 • If paper needs to be returned to the mailbox bin, then insert the paper under the bin arm, and then push the paper all the way back. Note: If the paper is not under the bin arm, then a jam occurs due to an overfilled bin. Use recommended paper • Use only recommended paper or specialty media. • Do not load wrinkled, creased, damp, bent, or curled paper. • Flex, fan, and straighten paper or specialty media before loading it.
Clearing jams 271 Notes: • When Jam Assist is set to On, the printer flushes blank pages or pages with partial prints to the standard bin after a jammed page has been cleared. Check your printed output for blank pages. • When Jam Recovery is set to On or Auto, the printer reprints jammed pages. However, the Auto setting reprints jammed pages if adequate printer memory is available.
