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 a document in the feeder, that you can dial a number and send a fax, or you can make a copy.

FAX: NO. & START

COPY: PRESS COPY

If you have a basic understanding of how to program a fax machine, you can perform most of the programming settings without the Owner’s Manual. To help you understand the function selections, options, and settings that are found in your fax programs, use the Function Selection Table below.
