Basic operation

Sending a fax using the ADF

1

2 Insert the document face up, top edge first. And adjust the document guides by sliding either of them to the left or right to fit the page(s) you ll be faxing. Your fax machine s ADF (Automatic Document Feeder) will hold up to 50 pages with letter-sized paper.

When a document is in the feeder, the LCD shows the scanning width (see A4 in the Glossary beginning on page 5.17) and the amount of memory available:

Document Ready

A4 Mem100%

3 Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.

4 Enter the fax number.

Also, enter any access codes necessary, just as you would for a regular phone call. (Example: Enter 9 to dial out from an office telephone system, or 1 for long-distance.)

Press Start 919725552009_

5 Press START.

By pressing START, you ve just given your machine a command. In turn, your machine gives this action a command number as it scans the fax document.

This command number appears on the first line of the LCD for a few seconds:

== Command:01 ==

You ll need to know this command number if you later wish to cancel the transmission or to print a stored document (see pages 2.8 2.9).

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

If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document into memory. (In default setting, the Quick Memory transmission is On. If you want to turn off this feature, see page 4.2.)

If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your fax scans the entire document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes con- tact, your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.

If the fax is set for Real time transmit (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 (called black coverage) your machine sees on a page, the more slowly the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And even if the page is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or at certain resolutions makes your machine see more stuff.

The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Important: If you want to cancel a transmission while scanning the docu- ment, press the STOP key.

If you want to cancel a transmission in progress, use the Review Commands function. See Reviewing or canceling commands, page 2.8.

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

919725552009 ** Complete **

Important: Whenever you transmit a document, what actually appears on the top line of the display depends on information stored in the remote fax. The line may even be blank.

Note: If the call fails, see Redialing, page 2.7.
