Setting ECM

“Line noise,” or static on the line during a call, can easily disrupt the flow of data from one fax machine to another.

That’s why your fax machine gives you the option of using Error Correction Mode (ECM). When two fax machines communicate while running in ECM, the sending machine automatically checks the data as it sends. If the receiving fax machine can’t verify the transmission, the first machine will re-send it as necessary.

Note: ECM gives you a better chance of transmitting a fax document over a bad phone line, but it could also slow down the transmission time. And the worse the line is, the slower the transmission. That’s why the machine lets you turn ECM on or off as needed.

Note: Not all fax machines have ECM. If you’ve activated ECM and then transmit to a fax machine not currently using ECM, there will be no change in the fax transmission from a usual, non-ECMtransmission.
