If you need to fax another page, press the 1 key (for Yes). Open the document cover, remove your first original, place your next original, and close the document cover. Then press the OK button to fax the next page. Repeat this step to fax all the necessary pages.

Note:

If you’re sending a color fax, or a large document that fills up the memory area, the Epson Stylus CX5800F scans and faxes one page at a time. It then asks if you want to send another page. The fax connection stays open until you are finished.

Receiving a Fax

The Epson Stylus CX5800F automatically receives and prints faxes in Auto Answer mode. However, you may want to receive faxes manually if you connected the Epson Stylus CX5800F and a phone or answering machine to a phone line that also receives voice calls. Then you can check for a fax tone from the sending fax machine and press a button on the Epson Stylus CX5800F to receive the fax, or allow your answering machine to determine if the call is an incoming fax.

Note:

Make sure you selected the Paper Size setting that matches the size of paper you’ve loaded. If the incoming fax pages are larger than the paper size you loaded, the fax size is reduced to fit or printed on multiple pages, depending on the Automatic Reduction setting you select. See page 34 for details.

Selecting the Answer Mode

The Epson Stylus CX5800F tells you whether Auto Answer is turned on or not on the first screen:

To change the answer mode, press the Answer Mode button. The Y or N changes on the first screen. Press Answer Mode again to change it back.
