Getting started
Your Muratec fax machine comes with EasyStart. It guides you in entering the
bare-bones settings required for normal operation — so it’s easy for you to start
using your machine quickly. (Of course, you can make other settings later or change
these settings. We’ll explain in “Beyond the basics,” beginning on page 2.1.)
Important: At the end of EasyStart, your machine will print a list of its settings.
So, first, please be sure you’ve correctly installed your machine and
loaded recording paper into it (see “Setting up,” beginning on page 1.6).
Clearing settings before beginning
Before using EasyStart, clear your machine’s built-in user data memory, which
stores settings. This insures the memory will hold only your settings.
Important: After you use EasyStart, please do not clear the memory again unless
an authorized technician asks you to do so.
To clear the machine’s memory:
1
Press /
PROGRAM
, *, 2. The
LCD
now asks whether you’re sure about clearing
the memory:
Note: If you don’t want to proceed, just press /
PROGRAM
.

If you are sure, press
ENTER
to complete the process by cancelling the existing
user data memory settings.
What do you want to do?
EasyStart will want you to enter a little information; so, first, please determine the
following before you proceed:
1
The type of dialing your telephone system requires — You may select
either tone or pulse (rotary) dialing.
2
The name and fax number you wish to appear on your faxes —
Every fax page you send will arrive at the receiving machine with a single
line of text at the very top of the page. Among other things, this text will list a
name and a fax number. The name must not be longer than 25 characters.
Note: Incidentally, the fax industry term for this text is Transmit Terminal
Identifier (
TTI
). (Another term, Subscriber
ID
, refers to just the fax
number in the
TTI
.)
Using EasyStart to enter initial settings
