Using the fax machine
Sending a fax manually
Press the MONITOR button or lift the handset
and dial the number. After dialling you can
press the START/COPY button immediately,
or you can monitor the call’s progress, via the
in-built speaker, and press the START/COPY
button at an appropriate time. This can be
useful if the fax machine you are calling is
operating in conjunction with an answer
machine which has a long outgoing message.
You should press the START/COPY button as
the outgoing message is ending.
You can also send a fax during a voice call by
pressing the START/COPY button at a
convenient point in the conversation.
If your fax call is not successful in connecting,
your DF60 will automatically retry four times.
If the call is still unsuccessful a confirmation
report is printed informing you that the line
was busy.
Receiving a fax
If set to MANUAL, to receive a fax lift the
handset or press the MONITOR button, then
press the START/COPY button.
In any other mode your DF60 will answer and
receive a fax automatically.
Delaying a fax
This allows you to transmit a Fax to another
machine automatically at a pre-set time. This
can be useful if you want to send a Fax abroad
or at a time when call charges are lower.
Your document must be loaded before starting
this function.
Press the FUNCTION button until DELAYED
FEATURE? is displayed.
Press the YES button and the display
shows:
DELAYED SEND?
Setting the answer mode is explained in full under
the Setting up section of this guide (Page 10).
Caution
Your DF60 uses a thermal printing system. It
should be noted that documents printed on
thermal paper will fade with time. This time is
dependent on light and heat conditions. To keep a
permanent copy, photocopy the document using a
plain paper copier.
