•When your unit communicates with the computer, “CLASS 1 MODE”
appears on the LCD.
•No other fax activities can be performed while the MFD communicates
with the PC.
•During a fax operation initiated by your unit, a fax request initiated by
the PC is not processed.
•The maximum fax transmission speed is 14,400 bps in Class 1 mode.
