Settings for transmission

Scan settings

Default setting: Primary resolution: Normal, Primary contrast: Normal

Two different settings tell your machine how to scan documents. The initial factory settings are probably right for most applications, so try using them before changing any of these settings:

Primary resolution mode Sets the resolution for your documents. Choose either normal, fine, superfine ( S Fine on the LCD) or grayscale mode ( Gray ).

Primary contrast mode Sets how light or dark you want faxed documents to be when they arrive at their destinations.

Note: The primary settings you choose effect your fax activity only. To set these modes:

1 Press Program key, B, 2, 0, 1, ENTER. The LCD asks you to select a resolution:

Resolution :Normal

←/→ /Enter

2	Press		or	until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
	fine resolution.
		Resolution :Fine
			← /→	/Enter
3	Press ENTER to save the setting. The LCD asks you to select a contrast setting:
		Contrast		:Normal
			← /→	/Enter
4	Press		or	until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
	light contrast.

Contrast :Light

←/→ /Enter

5 Press ENTER to save the setting.

Changing the default settings

By following the steps above, you ve set your defaults for scanning. Before sending documents, you can override these default scan settings for that transmission.

To override the default resolution and contrast settings before sending a document: Press RESOLUTION to change the resolution.

Press CONTRAST to change the contrast.

Once your document is transmitted, your machine returns to its default settings.

Setting ECM

Default setting: ON.

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.

1 Pressting: Program key, B, 2, 0, 9, ENTER. The LCD shows the current ECM set-

E C M Mode :On

←/→ /Enter

2 Press or until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen Off.

E C M Mode	:Off
← /→	/Enter

3 Press ENTER to save the setting.
