Sending Faxes

Sending Documents

Before you send a document, see “Document Requirements” on page 20, and “Loading Documents and Paper” on page 22.

Note

zIf paper jams, see “Troubleshooting” on page 60.

zYou can send up to 20 A4- and letter-size (10 legal-size) pages at a time (based on the Canon FAX Standard Chart No.1, standard resolution). You cannot add pages while the fax is sending.

zThe fax stores the document temporally in memory when sending a document, however, when memory is full, it will send the document as it scans the document without storing document in memory.

„Direct Sending

1Load the document face up into the ADF.

See “Loading Documents and Paper” on page 22.

You can set the scanning resolution and contrast (see page 25).

2Dial the receiving party’s fax number.

Use one of the dialing methods described in this chapter.

TEL= 3456xxxx

3 Press [Start/Copy].

The fax begins sending.

Note

zIf an error occurs during sending, the fax beeps intermittently for a few seconds and an error message appears on the LCD. If this happens, correct the problem and then press [Stop/Reset], then try sending the document again. See “LCD Messages” on page 73.

zThe fax automatically redials if the receiving party does not answer or if the line is busy. (You can specify the number of times it redials; see <AUTO REDIAL> on page 46.)

„Manual Sending

If you would like to first speak with the person you are sending the document to, use manual sending.

1 Load the document face up into the ADF.

See “Loading Documents and Paper” on page 22.

You can set the scanning resolution and contrast (see page 25).

2 Pick up the Handset or press [Hook] and dial the receiving party’s fax number.
