Here’s a brief description of the keys on your fax machine and what they do, as well
as a look at your machine’s indicator lights and their meanings.
Important: Some of the functions we’ll mention here are covered in the “Beyond
the Basics” section.
1
MEMORY RECEIVE
light — If glowing, indicates your fax machine is receiving
an incoming fax document into the machine’s electronic memory.
2
COMMUNICATION
light — If glowing, advises you the fax machine is communi-
cating with another machine.
3
ALARM
light — If glowing, indicates a problem has occurred during fax com-
munication, printing or scanning. (It’s also accompanied by several beeps
immediately after the problem occurs.) The light stays lit until the machine
prints a Check Message report.
4
AUTO ANSWER
— Selects which mode your fax machine uses to handle incom-
ing calls: answering automatically as a fax machine (auto-answer mode) or
waiting for the user to pick up an optional, connected handset (manual-
answer mode). The
AUTO ANSWER
light next to this key will glow when
auto-answer mode is the current choice.
5
MEMORY TRANSMIT
— Selects which transmission mode your fax machine uses,
whether from memory or from the document feeder. If the
MEMORY TRANSMIT
light next to this key is glowing, your machine will scan documents into mem-
ory before trying to send them. Otherwise, your fax machine will send
straight from the feeder, which is slower and also prevents others in your
office from using the fax until your communication is absolutely complete.
6
REVIEW COMMANDS
— Push this to review pending fax commands, view a brief
description of delayed commands.

DIALING OPTIONS
— Either places a call on hold or takes it off hold. It
also produces a special character during dialing and inserts special symbols
into telephone numbers (see page 2.8).
9
SPEED DIAL
/
TEL INDEX
— Starts a speed-dialing 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.
10
REDIAL
/
PAUSE
— Redials the last number you dialed. In certain operations, it
also produces a special pause character which can be useful during the dial-
ing of long-distance numbers.
11
Numeric keypad — Just like the numeric keys on a regular tone-dialing
phone. In addition to dialing phone and fax numbers, they also enter num-
bers when you’re making certain settings.
12
One-touch keys — The keys labeled
A
–
Z
and
U
1–
U
4 offer one-touch dialing
convenience. You also can use the keys labeled
P
1–
P
6 for programmable func-
tions: this lets you teach your machine an advanced multi-step function just
once, then recall the function at any time by pressing one of these keys.
Finally, you can use these keys to type in letters and symbols for your user
settings.
