Getting started
Important: Some of the functions mentioned here are covered in the “Beyond the
basics” section.
1

printing or scanning. The light stays on until the machine prints a Check
Message report.
2
COMMUNICATION
light — Glows when the fax machine is communicating with
another machine.
3
PRINTER ALARM

printing a fax or copy. Check the display or an error report for more information.

fax document into its electronic memory.

using the optional RS-232C interface.

AUTO ANSWER

the machine answers automatically as a fax machine.

— Redials the last number you dialled. In certain operations, it
also produces a special pause character which can be useful when dialling
long-distance numbers.
10
SPEED DIAL

— Starts a speed-dialling operation, which you finish
by pushing three of the keys on the numeric keypad. Also displays one-touch
and speed-dial entries sorted alphanumerically, as in a telephone directory.
11
MONITOR

CALL
— Turns the monitor speaker off or on. When it’s on, it allows
you to hear the call you’re making. When using this feature, you can only hear
the communication taking place. You cannot be heard unless you use a hand-
set (optional). When sending a fax, this key also activates the call request
feature.

phone. Use these to dial phone and fax numbers and to enter numbers when
you’re setting up the machine.

transmission, polling, batch transmission, continuous polling, F-code trans-
mission or F-code polling.

fax numbers which will receive the same document in one fax operation.

handle incoming calls. Choose between auto-answer mode (your machine
answers automatically as a fax machine) or manual-answer mode (the
machine waits for the user to pick up an optional, connected handset).
