Beyond the basics

Sending/receiving faxes with your computer

Note: Please consult your software’s operating instructions for more details.

1 Make sure your fax is connected to your computer (see page 2.50).

2 Computer: If your fax software allows it, turn off Error Correction Mode (ECM).

The fax machine will begin either transmitting or receiving.
