Set the fax speed
You can set the fax speed used to communicate between your printer and other fax
machines when sending and receiving faxes.
If you use one of the following, setting the fax speed to a slower speed might be
required:
• An Internet phone service
• A PBX system
• Fax over Internet Protocol (FoIP)
• An integrated services digital network (ISDN) service
If you experience problems sending and receiving faxes, try using a lower fax speed.
The following table provides the available fax speed settings.

Set the Error Correction Mode
Error Correction Mode (ECM) prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by
detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting
retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even
be reduced, on good phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending time
and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On.
Turn ECM off only if it increases phone charges substantially, and if you can accept
poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges.
