Scan settings
Default setting: Primary resolution: Normal, Primary contrast: Normal
Two different settings tell your machine how to scan documents. The initial factory set -
tings are probably right for most applications, so try using them before changing any of
these settings:
Primary resolution mode Sets the resolution for your documents. Choose either
normal, fine, superfine ( S Fine on the
LCD
) or grayscale mode ( Gray ).
Primary contrast mode Sets how light or dark you want faxed document s to be
when they arrive at their destinations.
Note: The primary settings you choose effect your fax activity only .
To set these modes:
1
Press Program key,
B
, 2, 0, 1,
ENTER
.The
LCD
asks you to select a resolution :
2
Press or until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
fine resolution.
3
Press
ENTER
to save the setting. The
LCD
asks you to select a contrast setting :
4
Press or until the mode you want appears. In this example, we ve chosen
light contrast.
5
Press
ENTER
to save the setting.
By following the step s above, you ve set your default s for scanning. Before sending doc -
uments, you can override these default scan settings for that transmission .
To override the default resolution and contrast settings before sending a document:
Press
RESOLUTION
to change the resolution.
Press
CONTRAST
to change the contrast.
Once your document is transmitted, your machine returns to its default settings.
Setting ECM
Default setting: O n
Line noise, or st atic on the line during a call, can easily disrupt the flow of dat a from
one fax machine to another.
That s why your fax machine gives you the option of using Error Correction Mode (
ECM
).
When two fax machines communicate while running in
ECM
, the sending machine auto-
matically checks the dat a as it sends. If the receiving fax machine can t verify the
transmission, the first machine will re-send it as necessary.
Note:
ECM
gives you a better chance of transmitting a fax document over a bad phone
line, but it could also slow down the transmission time. And the worse the line
is, the slower the transmission. That s why the machine lets you turn
ECM
on or
off as needed.
Note: Not all fax machines have
ECM
. If you ve activated
ECM
and then transmit to a
fax machine not currently using
ECM
, there will be no change in the fax transmis -
sion from a usual, non-
ECM
transmission.
