Preparing Documents

■Try to use good quality documents for your trans- missions. Documents that are typed or created in felt-tip black ink on white (or light) paper work best.

■Do not send documents which are not rectangular.

■Never use documents that have wet or sticky sur- faces, wrinkles, staples or paper clips. However, your fax machine can transmit documents that have been subject to normal wear, such as documents with staple holes, letter folds and minor corner folds.

■If you are not sure how a document will fax, try making a copy first on your fax machine (load the document face down and press the Copy key).

■If your documents are extremely bent, creased or torn, make a copy on a photocopier and send the copy instead. You can also use a photocopier to enlarge or reduce documents before sending.

Document Size

All documents must have a minimum width of 148 mm and a minimum length of 128 mm. Documents cannot be wider than 216 mm or longer than 356 mm.

Multiple Page Documents

Your fax machine can scan paper with a base weight between 13 pounds (50 g/m2) and 28 pounds (105 g/m2). You can load up to 20 sheets of standard 20-pound paper (like photocopier paper) at the same time. If you use a heavier paper, you can load up to 15 sheets. For very heavy paper, load and send pages sheet-by-sheet.

When loading multiple-page documents, do not load paper which is thinner than 0.08 mm or thicker than

0.13mm. For documents, do not load paper which is thinner than 0.06 mm or thicker than 0.15 mm.
