Beyond the basics

Using your fax machine during operation protection

1. When you press any key on your machine, the display will show:

Operation Protected

Enter Passcode :****

2. Use the numeric keypad to enter the four-digit passcode (here, we’ve entered the passcode we set previously; see page 2.36).

Operation Protected

Enter Passcode :6296

If you make an error, press or until the cursor appears under the character you wish to change; then enter the correct character.

When you enter correct passcode, the machine will let you go on to the next step in the fax operation.

Note: If you start an operation while the first is still underway (see “The power of TriAccess,” page 2.35), the machine will require the passcode from you once again before proceeding with your new request. However, the first operation will proceed unaffected, even if you fail to enter the correct passcode for the second entry.

Print it later, when it’s safe: security reception

Your fax machine has a security reception capability. This means that you can tell the machine to keep all received faxes in memory (but not print them) after a certain time; then, later, you instruct it to go ahead and print out the saved faxes. This is great if, for example, you have concerns about after-hours workers nosing around in documents intended for your eyes only!

Important: For this feature to work, you must have preset the passcode (see

page 2.36) to something besides 0000; and, of course, you must know the passcode:

Note: In the following instructions, your machine’s display shortens the word Transmission to Tx and the word Receive to Rx.

Activating security reception

1. If the machine is in Fax mode, proceed to step 2.

If it is in Copy mode, press COPY/FAX to change to Fax mode.

2. Press PROGRAM, O (the letter O, not a zero), 1, ENTER. The display shows:

Set Security Rx

Enter Passcode :****

3. Use the numeric keypad to enter the passcode. Here, we’ve entered 6296:

Set Security Rx

Enter Passcode :6296

4. Press ENTER. The display shows:

Security Rx: Off

Program/Enter

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 6.

Otherwise, proceed to step 5.

5. To change the setting, press PROGRAM once or twice until your desired setting appears. In this example, we’ve chosen On.

Security Rx: On

Program/Enter

6. Press ENTER. The display shows the machine’s current clock setting:

Set Security Rx

Enter Time: 15:42

If you want security reception to begin now (and at this same time every day), skip to step 8.

Otherwise, proceed to step 7.

7. Use the numeric keypad to enter the time (24-hour format) when security reception should begin every day. “Type over” the numerals displayed. Here, we’ve entered 17:35 (5:35 PM):

Set Security Rx

Enter Time: 17:35

To change a digit, press to move leftward, or to move rightward, to that digit. Then, enter the correct digit.

8. Press ENTER to save this setting.
