Preparing to Send a Fax

Documents You Can Fax

For information on the types of documents you can fax, their requirements, and details on
loading documents, Chapter 4.

Adjusting the Quality of Your Faxes

Canon’s Ultra High Quality (UHQ™) imaging technology enables you to send documents that
are very close to the quality of the original. Your unit allows you to send a document in colour
or black & white, and to adjust the resolution and contrast to best suit your particular
document.
Setting Colour or Black & White Transmission
Your unit can send faxes in black & white. It can also send faxes in colour to fax machines
with colour capability. Before sending a document, you need to adjust whether the document
will be sent in colour, or in black & white only.
To send in black & white:
Make sure the Colour/B&W (Color/B&W) button’s light is off. If not, press Colour/B&W
(Color/B&W) to turn it off.
To send in colour (to fax machines that support colour fax reception):
Press Colour/B&W (Color/B&W) to turn on its light.
nIf you attempt to send a colour document to a fax machine that does not support colour faxing, the
document will not be sent and the LCD will display TRY AGAIN IN B&W (TRY AGAIN IN B/W).
Try sending again in black & white. For the MultiPASS C75/ FAX-B215C, you can enable the
COLOUR DIRECT TX setting ( p. 14-6) that converts colour faxes to black & white if the other
party’s fax machine does not support colour faxing, thus enabling you to send colour documents to
any fax machine without an error occurring.
