User Parameter Hints
Changing your machine’s default settings
These are the settings your machine assumes immediately after it is turned on, after clearing the machine, or after you or the night timer reactivates it. Many of the user parameters determine your machine’s default settings.
Clear modes after sending or loading a fax message (Switch 01, bit 7) Your machine can either reset itself or keep its settings (for a few minutes) after it sends a fax message.
Automatic reports
Many types of automatic reports can be switched on or off. See page 32 for details.
Accepting messages when out of supplies (Switch 05, bit 0)
This is also called substitute reception. You can accept messages even when
out of toner or paper by storing them in memory. See page 14 .
Saving toner (Switch 12, bit 2)
You can reduce the amount of toner used for fax messages and for reports. Messages sent to you in halftone (e.g. photographs) will switch this feature off to ensure the best image quality available, but the feature will stay on if the sender is using a machine made by another manufacturer. To make sure the fax quality is acceptable, print a few reports (see page 32). If you find that your fax messages and reports are too light, turn this feature off.
Adjusting the density for faxes (Switch 12, bits 3 & 4)
If your received fax messages are too light or too dark, adjust the printing density over three levels: Normal, Darken, and Lighten.
