Before You Begin
Before you begin sending faxes, please be sure to read all the instructions and
cautions listed below for placing originals in the automatic document feeder.
Using the ADF (Automatic Document Feeder)
■
Documents must be between 5.8 and 8.5 inches wide between 3.9 and 14.1
inches long. Your machine can scan an image only 8.15 inches wide, regardless
of how wide the paper is.
■
Make sure you insert documents face down, top edge first.
■
Adjust the paper guides to
fit the width of your
document.
■
The ADF (automatic document feeder) can hold up to 30 Pages, feeding each
one individually through the machine. Use standard (17 lb–24 lb) paper when
using the ADF. If you’re using heavier paper, feed each sheet individually to
prevent paper jams.
■
Make sure documents written in ink are completely dry.
■
Before you send a fax press Resolution to select the resolution for the
document you’re sending. (See
Fax Resolution , Page 6-5.)
DO NOT use curled, wrinkled, folded or ripped paper, or paper with staples,
paper clips, paste or tape attached. DO NOT use cardboard, newspaper or fabric.
If you send faxes from a computer on the same phone line and your Brother
machine intercepts them, set Easy Receive to OFF.
