3 3On-Screen Programming

User-Friendly Programming

We have designed your FAX/MFC with on-screen programming and a Help key. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the functions your FAX/MFC has to offer. (See Using This Manual, page 1-1.)

Since your fax programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen prompts to help you program your FAX/MFC. All you need to do is follow the prompts as they guide you through the function menu selections and programming options and settings.

Function Mode

You can access the function mode by pressing Function/Set. When you enter the function mode, your FAX/MFC displays a list of main menu options from which you can choose. These options appear one after the other on the display. Select an option by pressing Function/Set when the option appears on the screen.


You can “scroll” more quickly through options by pressing		. When the screen
displays your selection, press Function/Set. (Press	to scroll backward if you

passed your choice or to save key strokes. Both arrow keys show all options, in the opposite order.)

Before you press Function/Set after entering information in a field using the dial

pad, you can correct a mistake. Use to back up and then type over the incorrect characters.

When you finish a function, the screen displays ACCEPTED.

If you want to exit the Function mode, press Stop.

Alternating Displays

When you see alternating displays, the LCD sometimes alternates between the currently selected option, and a help message giving brief instructions about how to proceed. The display you’ll probably see most often is shown below, showing you, when you place an original in the ADF, that you can dial a number and send a fax, or you can make a copy.

FAX: NO. & START

COPY: PRESS COPY
