Tips for sending faxes

Make sure the printer is on and connected to a working telephone, DSL, or VoIP line. The line is working if you hear a dial tone.

Make sure the paper exit tray is fully extended and the tray extension is flipped out.

Depending on your printer model, use the ADF when scanning twosided (duplex) pages.

To easily retrieve a document after copying or scanning, lift the ADF input tray.

When using the ADF, adjust the paper guide on the ADF to the width of the original document.

When using the scanner glass, close the scanner cover, if possible, to avoid dark edges on the scanned image.

Do not load postcards, photos, small items, transparencies, photo paper, or thin media (such as magazine clippings) into the ADF. Place these items on the scanner glass.
