Scan settings
Default setting: Primary resolution: Normal, Primary contrast: Normal
Two different settings tell your machine how to scan documents. The initial factory set-
tings are probably right for most applications, so try using them before changing any of
these settings:
Primary resolution mode Sets the resolution for your documents. Choose either
normal, fine, superfine ( S Fine on the
LCD
) or grayscale mode ( Gray ).
Primary contrast mode Sets how light or dark you want faxed documents to be
when they arrive at their destinations.
Note:
The primary settings you choose effect your fax activity only.
To set these modes:
1
Press Program key,
B
,
2, 0, 1,
ENTER
.The
LCD
asks you to select a resolution:
2
Press or
until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
fine resolution.
3
Press
ENTER
to save the setting. The
LCD
asks you to select a contrast setting:
4
Press or
until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
light contrast.
5
Press
ENTER
to save the setting.
By following the steps above, you ve set your defaults for scanning. Before sending doc-
uments, you can override these default scan settings for that transmission.
To override the default resolution and contrast settings before sending a document:
Press
RESOLUTION
to change the resolution.
Press
C O N T R A S T
to change the contrast.
Once your document is transmitted, your machine returns to its default settings.
Setting
E C M
Default setting: O n
Line noise, or static on the line during a call, can easily disrupt the flow of data from
one fax machine to another.
That s why your fax machine gives you the option of using Error Correction Mode (
E C M
)
.
When two fax machines communicate while running in
E C M
, the sending machine auto-
matically checks the data as it sends. If the receiving fax machine can t verify the
transmission, the first machine will re-send it as necessary.
Note:
E C M
gives you a better chance of transmitting a fax document over a bad phone
line, but it could also slow down the transmission time. And the worse the line
is, the slower the transmission. That s why the machine lets you turn
E C M
on or
off as needed.
Note:
Not all fax machines have
E C M
.If you ve activated
E C M
and then transmit to a
fax machine not currently using
E C M
, there will be no change in the fax transmis-
sion from a usual, non-
E C M
transmission.
