Set the fax-error-correction mode
Usually, the product monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If
the product detects an error during the transmission and the error-correction setting is On, the product
can request that the portion of the fax be resent. The factory-set default for error correction is On.
You should turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and you
are willing to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be useful when you are
trying to send a fax overseas or receive one from overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone
connection.

button.
2. Touch the Service menu.

standard for full-duplex modems that send and receive data across telephone lines at up to 33,600 bits
per second (bps). The factory-set default for the fax-speed setting is Fast(V.34).
You should change the setting only if you are having trouble sending a fax to or receiving a fax from a
particular device. Decreasing the fax speed might be useful when you are trying to send a fax
overseas, or receive one from overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone connection.

button.
