BEFORE USING THE MACHINE AS A FAX

To use the machine as a facsimile, connect the telephone line, and set the telephone line type.

Connecting to the telephone line.

Insert the plug on one end of the telephone line cord into the telephone line socket (LINE) of the machine as shown until it clicks, and insert the other plug into a wall telephone socket until it clicks.

In some countries, an adaptor is required to connect the telephone line cable to the wall telephone socket, as shown in the illustration.

If the connection cable is not properly connected, "Sending has failed. Please check network connection." will appear when you attempt to send a fax. Properly connect the connection cable.

Make sure the power plug is inserted in the power outlet.

When the power indicator is lit up, the power plug is inserted in the power outlet. If the power indicator is not lit up, insert the power plug in the power outlet.
TURNING ON THE POWER

When "Settings (administrator)" → [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Condition Settings] → [Auto Wake Up Print] is enabled, even if the power to the machine is turned off, when a fax is received, the machine will automatically turn on and output the received data. When [Auto Wake Up Print] is disabled and the [Power] button is unlit, the received data is stored in memory in the machine and will not be output until the power is turned on.

If the fax function will be used, and in particular if reception or timer transmission will take place at night, do not unplug the power cord from the power outlet.

Setting the telephone line type.

The machine's dial mode setting must be set to match the type of telephone line you are using.
* If the setting is incorrect, it may result in dialling failures or cause calls to be made to the wrong destination.

If you want to set the type of telephone line automatically

If necessary, you can set the type of telephone line manually.
This setting can only be activated in Canada.
When you connect to a digital line When Digital Line Network is enabled, the send level will be 15 dB or less when you connect to a digital line. In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Default Settings] → [Digital Line Network].

Checking the date and time.

Verify that the correct date and time are set in the machine.

To set the date and time of the machine:
In "Settings", select [System Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Device Control] → [Clock Adjust].

Storing the sender fax number.

Store a sender name in [Sender Name] and a fax number in [Fax No.]. Be sure to configure this information, as it is required for communication.

To store the sender's name and address:
In "Settings (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Common Settings] → [Own Number and Name Set] → [Sender Data Registration].

Storing destination addresses for each scan mode in the address book.
