Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer
or other electronic device to send any message via a telephone facsimile machine unless such
message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first
page of the transmission the following information:
(1) the date and time of transmission
(2) identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the message; and
(3)telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity or individual.
See page 2.6 for instructions on how to enter this information into your Samsung FAX machineÕs
memory.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment operations,
or procedures where such action is reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not
inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can be reasonably
expected to render any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company
communications facilities, or require modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or
otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given adequate notice in
writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service.
Telephone Company Information
FCC IDENTIFICATION NUMBER
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this equipment may be found on
the label located on the bottom or rear of the machine. In some instances you may need to provide
these numbers to the telephone company.
RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on the telephone
line, and is useful for determining whether you have ÒoverloadedÓ the line. Installing several types
of equipment on the same telephone line may result in problems making and receiving telephone
calls, especially ringing when your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the
equipment on your telephone line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the
telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on your line. If any of your
telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your
telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network.
WARNING:
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the userÕs authority to operate this equipment.
In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
should notify the customer that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical,
the company may temporarily cease service, providing that they:
a) Promptly notify the customer.
b) Give the customer an opportunity to correct the problem with their equipment.
c) Inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication
Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
