Speed Send Setup

Press the Setup button to set up your list of frequently dialed fax numbers and to create group lists. See the Speed Send section for more information.

Advanced Fax Settings

Press the Advanced button to display the advanced fax settings. The advanced settings are described below.

Advanced Fax Settings

From the Fax Settings page, you can access the Advanced Fax settings.

Advanced Fax Settings Window

The Advanced Fax Settings page contains fax settings that are infrequently used or changed.

Dial Mode

Almost all phone lines support touch tone dialing. In case your phone line only supports pulse (rotary) dialing, you can change the dial mode.

Volumes

Use the volume sliders to adjust the ringer and speaker volumes to your liking.

If the A1500 is placed in a quiet environment, set the Ringer volume to Silent to mute all alarms and sounds.

Redialing

In the event a fax does not transmit the first time, due to a busy or noisy phone line, you can adjust how many minutes to wait between redials, and how many times to try the fax again.

Date and Time

The settings utility will synchronize the date and time between your computer and the A1500. If you would rather select a particular date and time yourself, uncheck the box and enter new values.

Discard Size

Sometimes a fax will be slightly longer than the paper in your input tray. Instead of printing a small amount of useless information on another page, you can discard it. Use the discard slider to set the amount of data you are willing to discard.

Fax Forwarding

If you will be away from your home or office, you can have your faxes forwarded to you while you are gone. To have the A1500 forward your faxes, select Forward, or to forward your faxes and print a local copy as well, select Forward and Print.

Enter the fax number you want the faxes forward to, and a starting and ending date and time during which fax forwarding will be active.

To disable Fax Forwarding before the end date and time, select Disabled as the Forwarding Mode.

Print the Terminal ID

When this box is checked, the A1500 will print the page number, date, time of reception, the Station Fax ID and the Name of the remote fax machine at the top of each received fax page. When unchecked, no information will be printed.

Automatically Print Fax Logs

To print a fax log every 40 transactions, check this box.

Always Scan Fax into Memory

Normally all pages of your fax are first scanned into memory and then transmitted. If you would rather have the pages scanned while transmitting them, uncheck this box. Typically this is done to conserve memory for incoming faxes.

Error Correction Mode

To ensure error-free transmission with another fax machine running ECM, especially when the connection is poor, check this box.

Defaults

To reset all of the advanced fax settings to the A1500 defaults, press this button.
