FAX OPERATION
PREPARING A

The quality of the copy at the receiving
fax machine depends on the quality of
the original document you send. Do
not try to send documents that are:
• Wet or damp
• Covered with wet ink or paste
• Chemically processed (such as
pressure-sensitive paper or car-
bon-coated paper)
• Coated (such as glossy paper)
• Too thin (such as onionskin, air-
mail paper, or magazine pages)
• Curled or folded
• Made of cloth or metal
• Larger or smaller than the allow-
able document size (maximum
size 8

might not fax properly.
To send a document of poor quality,
make a photocopy of the original. Then
fax the copy.
Caution:
Remove staples and paper
clips from documents you want to
send. These could damage the fax ma-
chine.

if necessary. See “Setting the
Contrast/Resolution” on Page 21.
