Getting started

Note: Whether you decide to send your documents from memory or through the document feeder, you can override that choice one transmission at a time by pressing MEMORY TRANSMIT before you send your document. After complet- ing the communication, your fax will return to the default setting.

Note: Although it’s probably best to transmit from memory, please note there are some documents that use up memory more quickly than others. They include documents with many pages and documents with a lot of dark areas, since darker pages create more data for your fax machine to “remember” and send. When the machine’s memory supply is full, it can transmit only through the document feeder.

To make memory transmission the default:

1 Press PROGRAM, J, 1, 3, ENTER.

Memory Tx: On

Program/Enter

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 3.

Otherwise, proceed to step 2.

2 To change the setting, press PROGRAM once or twice until your chosen mode appears. In this example, we’ve chosen Off.

Memory Tx: Off

Program/Enter

3 Press ENTER to save the setting.

Sending

Here’s how to fax a document:

1 Insert the document.

When a document is in the feeder, the LCD shows the scanning width setting and the amount of memory available:

Document Ready

A4 Memory100%

2 Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary. If these are OK, skip to step 3. Otherwise, press RESOLUTION to change the resolution and/or press CONTRAST to change the contrast.

3 “Toggle” (switch on or off) memory transmission if necessary. If you want to use your default setting, skip to step 4.

Otherwise, press MEMORY TRANSMIT once to “toggle” memory transmission.

4 Enter the fax number.

(In fax terms, you’re calling the remote fax, on its remote fax number.)

Press Start 919725552009_

As you can see, you also enter any access codes (such as a 9 for “dialing out” from an office telephone system, or 1 for long-distance) along with the num- ber, just as you would for a regular phone call.

5 Press START.

6 Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialing.

If you have set the fax to transmit from memory, your machine will first scan the document into memory, then dial the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory.

If the fax is set for non-memory transmission, your machine simply dials the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine feeds the document through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

Note: The more “stuff” (or black coverage, to use the fax term) your machine “sees” on a page, the more slowly the page will feed through as the fax scans it — especially when you transmit in non-memory mode. Even if the page itself is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or certain resolution settings makes your machine “see” more “stuff.” The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Note: What if the call fails for some reason? See “If the call doesn’t go through — redialing,” next page.

Important: If you wish to cancel a transmission while it is in progress, you will need to use the Review Commands function. See “An intro- duction to Review Commands,” page 1.16.

7 At the end of the operation, your fax machine beeps and displays:

972-555-2009

** Complete **

Important: Whenever you transmit, whether this way or in the numerous ways we’ll describe throughout this manual, what actually appears on the top line of the display will depend upon informa- tion stored in the remote fax. The line may even be blank.
