OMR Sheets

Introduction

Instead of inputting instructions at the operation panel, you can mark up a special form, called an OMR Sheet (OMR means Optical Mark Reader), and scan your instructions into the machine. Your fax machine will read the marks on the form and carry out your instructions. Your machine can accept five types of OMR Sheets.

❐User Parameter Program Sheet - use this to change the user parameter settings

❐Quick/Speed Dial Program Sheet - use this to store a number as a Quick Dial or Speed Dial

❐Group Program Sheet - use this to store numbers into a Group

❐Transmission Program Sheet - use this to transmit a fax message

❐Transfer Request Program Sheet - use this to make a Transfer Request

This section of the manual first describes the OMR Sheets and how to use them, and finally gives the procedures that you need to use an OMR Sheet.
