If you pressed Hook in step 4 instead of lifting the handset, you will hear the other party’s voice but they will not be able to hear you through the speaker. Pick up the handset to talk to the other party.

If you hear a high-pitched signal instead of the other party’s voice, press Start. If you picked up the handset to dial, press Start and hang up the handset. The unit will begin sending the document.

7When you are ready to send the document, ask the other party to press the start button on their fax unit.

8When you hear the high-pitched signal of the other party’s fax unit press Start on the unit and then hang up the handset.

The unit begins sending the document.

n• Be sure to hang up the handset after you press Start on the unit; otherwise the call will be disconnected.

The unit will beep if the handset is not hung up properly. Make sure the handset is seated properly in its cradle. If you do not want the unit to beep, disable the OFFHOOK ALARM setting. (1 p. 14-4)

If 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 sending again in black & white. Alternatively, you can enable the COLOUR DIRECT TX setting (1 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.
