Important safety information

Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine.

Unplug the machine from the power outlet and telephone jack and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur:

-Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

-The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.

-The power cord is frayed or damaged.

-The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord.

This machine must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty.

Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative.

Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls.

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Never touch bare telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

About condensation

If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the machine.

Connections

Connections

Connecting the handset

Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.

The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into either jack.

Make sure the handset cord goes into the jack marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!

Use the handset to make ordinary phone calls, or to transmit and receive faxes manually.

Connecting the power cord

Plug the power cord into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded AC (3-prong) outlet.

Caution!

Do not plug the power cord into any other kind of outlet. This will damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty.

The machine does not have a power on/off switch, so the power is turned on and off by simply plugging in or unplugging the power cord.

Comments:

The fax machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the fax machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile messages.

The fax machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems.

If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone specialty stores.

1 Remove the paper from the paper tray

and open the operation panel (press).

2 Remove the used film and empty spool.

3 Remove the two green gears from the

2. Setting Up and Using OpenLCR

Your fax machine features OpenLCR technology, which helps you save money on long distance and international phone calls (both fax and voice) by automatically routing each call for the best available rate.

OpenLCR service is free of charge. The only cost to you is that of a periodic call (usually once every three months) to OpenLCR to receive the latest rate data. (Once you have registered with OpenLCR, your fax machine automatically makes this call.)

All calls routed by OpenLCR are consolidated on your monthly phone bill.

To take advantage of this feature, you will need to register with OpenLCR and download the rate data to your fax machine.

You can register with OpenLCR by fax, phone, or through OpenLCR’s Web site (www.OpenLCR.com).

Before registering, be sure to read the information on the Fax Transmission Test and OpenLCR Line Activation Form and Terms of Service sheet included with your fax machine. If you have any questions, call OpenLCR at 970-206-1207.

OpenLCR uses Caller ID for identification purposes when your fax calls OpenLCR to receive rate information. Even if you have requested your telephone company to withhold your Caller ID information when you place calls, your fax will still automatically transmit this information only when it calls OpenLCR.

It is possible to register for and use OpenLCR if you do not subscribe to a Caller ID service; however, in some instances where rate data must be changed on an emergency basis, your fax may not be able to respond automatically to OpenLCR’s call to notify your fax that it must receive new rate data. If this occurs, old, incorrect data will continue to be used.

Please note that the agreement you enter into by registering is between you and OpenLCR; it is not between you and any carriers.

Registering through OpenLCR’s Web site

You can also register at OpenLCR’s Web site, www.OpenLCR.com. After registering you will need to receive the rate data manually (service is not activated until your fax receives the rate data). See Downloading (receiving) the rate data manually on the following page.

If you move, you must re-register!

The rate data that you receive is based on the address you provide when registering with OpenLCR. If you move, the rate data will not be correct for your new location. In this case, repeat the registration procedure to give OpenLCR your new address.
