REPLACE PAPER

Getting started

Fax Ready mode

Use it if: You have your fax machine installed on a “dedicated” line (one it doesn’t share with a second phone).

In this mode: Your fax machine answers each incoming call after a certain number of rings (see page 2.4) and attempts fax reception.

To select Tel Ready:

1. Press COPY/FAX to change to the Fax mode, if the machine isn’t the Fax mode.

2. Press PROGRAM, I, and then ENTER six times. The LCD will show your current reception mode.

3. To change the reception mode, press PROGRAM once or twice until “Fax Ready” appears.

4. Press ENTER to save the setting.

5. The machine will return to the standby mode.

In Fax Ready mode, the Auto Answer light is lit.

What if you answer a fax call?

Using a phone connected directly to your fax machine

If you answer a directly connected phone and hear fax tones, simply press START and hang up the handset. Your fax machine will go ahead and receive the fax call.

Using a phone not connected to your fax machine

Let’s say you have another telephone connected to the same line (“branch connected” ) as, but not physically to, your fax machine. if you answer a call on such a phone and hear fax tones, here’s what to do to receive the incoming fax:

1. Don’t hang up the line! Instead, either:

Put the telephone handset down (but – again – don’t hang it up)

. . . or . . .

If the telephone has a “hold” feature, put the phone on hold and then hang up the handset.

2.Go to the fax machine.

3.Press MONITOR/CALL.

4.Press START.

5.Return to the telephone. If you didn’t put the phone on hold in step 1, hang up its handset.

When the paper runs out

Getting the word from your machine

When your fax machine runs out of paper, the machine beeps, the

light glows and the display indicates the “Please Supply Paper” message.

Of course, your fax machine cannot print fax messages or copies without paper.

However . . .

Receiving when fresh out of paper

If your machine runs out of paper while you’re away, it will store in memory up to 100 separate receptions (see the note, below). This is called out-of-paper reception. Then, when you replenish the paper supply, the fax machine will print the stored messages automatically! This is a great ease to your peace of mind, especially for overnight and weekend sessions.

Note: How many pages (as opposed to receptions) your fax machine can store for out-of-paper reception will vary. If depends upon not only your machine’s memory capacity but also the types of documents being sent, and the resolution settings at which the documents are sent, to your machine.
