Settings for reception

Print settings

You can set three parameters for printing received fax messages:

•Print reduction rate

•Reduction margin

•Paper save function

You set all three in the same procedure, discussed on next page. Following is a explanation for each:

Print reduction rate

Print reduction lets you set the machine to reduce large incoming documents to a size that fits the paper in your machine. (This setting doesn’t affect copies you may make with your machine.)

Below are the options for both the print reduction and copy reduction settings:

Setting	What it does
	Automatically reduces printouts at variable rates down to a
Auto	minimum of 50%. Tries to reduce printout to fit on one sheet of
	your selected paper size. If it can’t, print the image at 100% size
	on two or more pages.
100%	Does not reduce document. (Due to the sender’s TTI, this may print
	two pages when receiving a one-page fax document. See 97%,below.)
97%	Reduces an original so that the final printout of a one-page-
	document (if the original isn’t larger than the paper in your
	machine) will only be one page long, even with the TTI.
91%	Reduces documents slightly more.
81%	Reduces documents even more. Helpful for some international
	stationery sizes, as well as special applications.
75%	Turns legal-sizedoriginals into letter-sizedprinted copies.

Reduction margin

Your fax machine’s reduction margin is measured in millimeters (mm). We’ll define reduction margin by explaining how it’s used:

When a fax message enters your machine’s electronic brain, the machine measures the message’s length and compares it to (a) the length of your selected paper plus

(b)the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming message is shorter than (a) and (b) put together, your machine prints the message on just one sheet. If it’s longer, your machine prints the message on more than one sheet.

Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 40mm will print most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and then, only if you have problems with it, select different settings.

Paper save function

There are two methods of paper save function, Half-page reception and duplex recep- tion.

Half-page reception

Half-page reception can conserve paper if some of the faxes you receive are half- page, “memo-sized” messages. When activated, this feature tells the machine to combine two of these half-page receptions onto a single sheet. Half-page reception only combines half-page messages sent back-to-back during the same transmission. It won’t combine two half-page faxes from separate transmissions.

Duplex reception (Optional duplex unit is required.)

With the optional duplex unit installed, received fax message can be printed on both sides of the recording paper.

Note: This feature works only when all the pages of received documents have the same width.
