To send a fax to one recipient

1.Dial the fax number by using one of the following methods:

Use the alphanumeric buttons on the device control panel to dial the number.

If the fax number you are calling has been assigned to a one-touch key, press that key.

If the fax number you are calling has a speed-dial entry, press PHONE BOOK, use the alphanumeric buttons to enter the speed-dial entry, and then press ENTER.

When dialing by using the alphanumeric buttons, include any pauses or additional numbers that are necessary for the call, such as an area code, an access code for numbers that are outside of a PBX system (usually a 9), or a long-distance prefix. See Using dialing characters for more information.

2.Load the document into the automatic document feeder (ADF) input tray or onto the flatbed scanner.

3.Press START FAX.

4.If you are scanning from the flatbed scanner, press 1 to select YES when Send from glass? 1=Yes 2=No appears, and then press ENTER.

5.Complete one of the following steps:

If you have more pages to scan, press 1 to select YES, and then repeat step 4 for each page of the fax job.

If you are finished, press 2 to select NO.

When you press NO, the device automatically sends all pages.

When the last page of the fax has exited the device, you can start sending another fax, copying, or scanning.

To fax to numbers that you use regularly, you can assign a one-touch key or speed-dial entry. See To program speed-dial entries and one-touch keys and To program group-dial entries. If you have electronic phone books available, you might be able to use them to select recipients. Electronic phone books are generated by using third-party software programs.
