The fax function lets you scan items and fax them to one or more recipients directly from the MFP. When you touch Fax, it opens the fax destination screen. You enter the fax number and touch Fax It to send your fax. You can also change the fax settings to fit your personal needs.

During initial MFP setup, you may be required to configure the MFP for faxing. For additional information, see Fax setup in the Setup Guide.

Sending a fax

There are two ways to send a fax: enter the number using a numeric keypad, or use a shortcut number. Use the instructions below to send a fax using the keypad, or see Using fax destination shortcuts to fax your documents using a shortcut.

1Place your original document in the automatic document feeder faceup, short-edge first.

2Adjust the paper guides.

3Touch Fax on the home screen.

4Enter the fax number using the numbers on the touch screen or keypad.

Add recipients by touching next and then entering the recipient's telephone number or shortcut number, or search the address book.

Note: To place a two-second dialing pause within a fax number, use the Dial Pause button.

The dial pause will appear as a comma in the Fax to: box. Use this feature if you need to dial an outside line first.

5Touch Fax It.
