Insert the document face up, top edge first.

And adjust the document guides

by sliding either of them to the left or right to fit the page(s) you ll be faxing.
Your fax machine s

ADF

(Automatic Document Feeder) will hold up to 50 pages

with letter-sized paper.

Enter the fax number.
Also, enter any access codes necessary, just as you would for a regular phone
call. (Example: Enter 9 to dial out from an office telephone system, or 1 for long-
distance.)

Press

STA R T

.

By pressing

STA R T

, you ve just given your machine a command. In turn, your

machine gives this action a command number as it scans the fax document.

This command number appears on the first line of the

LCD

for a few seconds:

You ll need to know this command number if you later wish to cancel the trans-
mission or to print a stored document (see pages 2.7 2.8).

N o w, everything is up to the machines yours and the one you re dialing.

If the fax has been set for Quick Memory transmit, your machine scans the
first page of your document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it
makes contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory
while at the same time scanning the remaining pages of your document into
memory. (In default setting, the Quick Memory transmission is O n. If you want
to turn off this feature, see page 4.2.)

If the fax has been set for the normal memory transmit, your fax scans the
entire document into memory, then dials the other fax. When it makes contact,
your machine transmits the entire stored document from memory.

If the fax is set for Real time transmit (non-memory transmission), your
machine simply dials the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine
feeds the document through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

Note:

The more stuff (called black coverage) your machine sees on a page,
the more slowly the page feeds through as the fax scans it. And even if
the page is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or at certain
resolutions makes your machine see more stuff.
The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Important:

If you want to cancel a transmission while scanning the document,
press the

STO P

key.

If you want to cancel a transmission in progress, use the Review
Commands function. See Reviewing or canceling commands,
page 2.7.

At the end of the operation, your fax machine beeps and displays:

Important:

Whenever you transmit a document, what actually appears on the
top line of the display depends on information stored in the remote
fax. The line may even be blank.

Note:

If the call fails, see Redialing, page 2.6.
