Sending a Fax
There are 3 basic ways to send a fax:
1) Manual transmission:
You can talk or listen to the other party before you send a fax by picking up the
handset and dialing the number. After the other party has finished talking and
has pressed the Start button, you will be able to send your fax by pressing your
Start key and placing the handset in its cradle. (If you call and all you hear is
the chirping sound of a fax machine, you can go ahead and press your Start key,
and then replace the handset.)
2) Automatic transmission:
You can send a fax without picking up the handset or without pressing Hook by
dialing the fax number and then pressing Start.
a. One-Touch Dialing
Press one of the One-Touch keys. (The numbers must be stored beforehand. See
page 4-4.) Then press Start.
b. Speed-Dialing
Press Speed-Dial, then use the number keys to enter a two-digit number.
For example, press “05” for 5. (The numbers must be stored beforehand. See
page 4-6.) Then press Start.
c. Telephone Index
You can use the Tel-Index to make telephone or fax calls.(See page 5-2.)
3) Timer transmission:
It is possible to send documents at a later time by using the TIMER function. (See
page 6-7~8.)
Talking to the Other Party When Sending a Fax
When you are sending a fax manually and you hear the recipient’s voice instead of
fax tones, you can use the handset to have a conversation. When or if you want to then
send a fax, ask the person on the other line to press Start on his/her fax machine and
when you hear fax tones you can press Start to begin sending your fax.
1. Insert the documents face down
