What Does a Fax Machine Do?

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this product. This multi-function office machine offers a wide range of fax, copier, printer, and convenient features.

The fax machine scans your letter, and converts it into a series of black and white dots (the number of dots that there are across and down the page depends on the resolution that you selected; refer to the specifications section of this manual for details). This series of dots is transformed into an electrical signal and sent out over the telephone line to the destination fax machine.

The receiving fax machine reconstructs your letter from the incoming signal, and prints it.

If you are worried about whether the message arrived at the destination, you can check a report called the TCR (Transaction Confirmation Report). When you print this report, you will see the results of the most recent fax communications made by your machine.

You can use your fax machine to send and receive many types of documents, even photographs.
