Telephone company procedures
The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can.
In order to do this, it may occasionally be necessary for them to make changes in
their equipment, operations, or procedures. If these changes might affect your
service or the operation of your equipment, the telephone company will give you
notice in writing to allow you to make any changes necessary to maintain unin-
terrupted service.
If problems arise
If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should imme-
diately remove it from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone
network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they may temporarily dis-
continue service. When practical, they will notify you in advance of this discon-
nection. If advance notice is not feasible, you will be notified as soon as possible.
When you are notified, you will be given the opportunity to correct the problem
and informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC. In the event repairs
are ever needed on your modem, they should be performed by TOSHIBA Corpo-
ration or an authorized representative of TOSHIBA Corporation.
Disconnection
If you should ever decide to permanently disconnect your modem from its
present line, please call the telephone company and let them know of this change.
Fax branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any per-
son to use a computer or other electronic device to send any message via a tele-
phone fax machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or
bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the date
and time it is sent and an identification of the business, other entity or individual
sending the message and the telephone number of the sending machine or such
business, other entity or individual. In order to program this information into
your fax modem, you should complete the setup of your fax software before
sending messages.
