SET THE PRINTER TO SCAN THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT BEFORE DIALING THE NUMBER

The printer does not automatically redial if you set it to scan the original document after dialing the number.

Set the printer to scan before dialing so that you do not have to scan the document again if the fax fails. The scanned document is saved in the printer memory. The printer can then retrieve it and automatically redial the number.

1From the home screen, navigate to:

> Fax Setup > Dialing and Sending > Scan

2Touch Before Dial, and then touch Accept.

ENABLE ERROR CORRECTION

Errors and blurs may appear in the faxed document if there is too much noise on the line. This feature enables the printer to transmit the bad blocks of data again and correct the errors. When a fax has too many errors, the fax may be rejected by the receiving fax machine.

1From the home screen, navigate to:

> Fax Setup > Dialing and Sending > Error Correction

2Touch On, and then touch Accept.

ENABLE AUTOMATIC FAX CONVERSION

If the receiving fax machine does not support color fax, then this option automatically converts the outgoing color fax to black and white. It also automatically reduces the resolution of the fax to a resolution that the receiving machine can support.

1From the home screen, navigate to:

> Fax Setup > Dialing and Sending > Auto Fax Convert

2Check to see if automatic fax conversion is set to On. If it is not set to On, touch On, and then touch Accept.

MAKE SURE THAT THE DIAL PREFIX SETTING IS CORRECT

The dialing prefix is the number or series of numbers that you press before you can dial the actual fax number or telephone number. If the printer is in an office setting or in a private branch exchange, this can be a specific number that you need to press so you can make a call outside the office.

Make sure that the dial prefix entered in the printer is correct for your network.

1From the home screen, navigate to:

> Fax Setup > Dialing and Sending > Dial Prefix

2Check the prefix.

If the prefix is not correct, enter the correct prefix, and then touch Accept.
