Getting started

Loading paper

Your machine’s standard paper cassette can hold up to 400 sheets at a time. Each optional cassette, available from your Muratec dealer at the time of purchase or as an upgrade, can hold an extra 200 sheets. In addition to boosting your total paper supply, adding an extra paper cassette allows your fax machine to use two types of paper, letter and legal, for example, at the same time.

Loading the paper cassette

Before you load paper, note the following:

The paper cassette can be adjusted to accept letter- or legal-sized paper.

Before you load the cassette, you will need to “tell” your fax machine which size of paper, letter- or legal-sized, you will be loading. You can do this by setting a pin located on the rear side of the paper cassette.

Note: If you will be using letter-sized paper, there’s no need to adjust the cas- sette; your fax is initially set for this paper size. Simply attach the LTR sticker to the outside of the paper cassette.

1 Pull the paper cassette com- pletely out of your fax.

On the rear side of the cassette, you will see the pin and three sets of holes.

 

Note the drawing below. If the pin is in the upper and lower set of holes, your

fax “thinks” the cassette holds letter-sized paper. If the pin is in the middle and lower holes, your fax thinks the cassette has legal-sized paper.

Setting for legal-sized paper

Your fax comes set for letter-sized paper. To set it to use legal-sized paper:

1 Unlock the pin from the upper set of holes by reaching inside of the paper cassette and pressing the nib, as shown.

2 Remove the pin.

3 Insert the pin into the middle set of holes. You will hear a click when it is locked into place.

4 Install the paper guide into the holes corresponding to the paper size you are installing.

Important: Remember, you’ve now told your fax that the paper cassette holds legal-sized paper. If you now try to use letter-sized paper without returning the pin to the upper holes (the setting for let- ter-sized), your fax will sound an alarm tone and display the following message when you try to print:

5 Be sure to attach the LGL sticker to the outside of the cassette to remind you which paper size it contains.
