Routine Maintenance

Your OKIFAX 740 is designed to give reliable and trouble-
free operation for many years. However, occasional care
and attention to the items covered in this section will help
to ensure optimum performance.

Care of Recording Paper

Your OKIFAX 740 is designed to print on ordinary plain
paper. Paper designed for use in inkjet or laser printers or
copiers should be satisfactory in most applications.

1. Store paper sealed in its wrapper until required for use,

and store flat in a clean, dry environment. Damp paper
causes poor print quality and may result in paper jams
and misfeeds.

2. Avoid overloading the automatic sheet feeder. It is

designed to hold 150 sheets maximum.

3. Ensure that the paper guide is set to the correct width

(Letter or A4) for the size of paper in use.

Cleaning External Surfaces

If you wish to clean the outside of your fax machine, follow
the precautions below:

1. Switch off power to your OKIFAX 740 and remove

the ac power plug from the wall or floor socket.

2. Use a clean, damp (but not soaking wet) cloth to gently

wipe clean the external surfaces. Avoid the use of
proprietary cleaners and polishes. Especially avoid
contact with solvents, which may discolour or damage
the casing.

3. Ensure that no liquids enter the inside of the machine

at any time. Should this happen by accident, do not
apply power, but call for service.

4. Ensure that all surfaces are completely dry before

restoring ac power to the machine.
