Connection to party-line service is subject to state
tariffs.
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 it to make
changes in its equipment, operation, or procedures.
If these changes affect your service or the operation
of the equipment, the telephone company will give
you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any
changes necessary to maintain uninterrupted
service.
If you have any questions about

can connect to it, the telephone company will
provide this information upon request.
In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for
the telephone company to request information from
you concerning the equipment which you have
connected to your telephone line. Upon request of
the telephone company, provide the FCC
registration number and the Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) of the equipment which is
connected to your line; both of these items are
listed on the equipment label and in the Service

Hearing Aid Compatible
The telephone handset attached to the facsimile is
hearing aid compatible.
Lightning
Your unit has built-in protection circuits, which meet
or exceed FCC requirements, to reduce the risk of

can cause an exessive surge of voltage that can
damage the phone.
Lightning damage is uncommon. However, if you
are concerned about it or live in an area with
frequent and/or severe electrical storms, we
suggest that you unplug your electronic equipment
during the storms.

Once you choose a receiving mode,the mode will
not be changed even though you turn the unit off.
The unit restores the mode when you turn on its

Facsimile machines come in two basic types:
Manual fax machines require the sender to dial
the number, listen for a fax tone from the
receiving machine (or tell the receiving operator
to press the [START] key on their machine), and
then press [START/COPY] to send.
Automatic fax machines detect the presence of
the receiving machine after it answers, and
automatically send a document with no operator
intervention.

Choosing a Mode
Before you begin to receive faxes, select the proper
reception mode for the way you intend to use the
machine.
In TEL mode, you can use your fax machine as you
would use any regular telephone. Use this mode if
you typically use the unit to receive both voice calls
and faxes.
In AUTO RECEIVE MODE, your unit automatically
picks up to receive a fax after several rings. The
number of rings can be set through the User
Options (see page 25). Use this mode if you
typically leave your fax machine unattended.
In ANS/FAX MODE, the unit can share the same
telephone line with an answering machine

When a call is received from a manual fax
machine, your unit answers the call after
several rings which you set through the User
Options, and sounds a fax tone to the caller.
The caller hears the tone, and should know to
press the [START] key on their machine.
Then your unit receives the fax.
When a call is received from an automatic fax
machine, your unit automatically detects the
sending fax machine and receives the fax
automatically.
Notes:
l If you pick up the handset before your unit
answers, the unit switches back to TEL mode.
l Even when a fax tone is on the line, the unit might
fail to detect it and doesn’t receive the fax
because of the line instability.

Cleaning Components
When the copied documents are hard to read,
clean the machine’s scanning glass and white roller.
If they are dirty, the quality of the transmission
image and copy becomes degraded.

How a Fax Works
Facsimile is a system of sending printed or other
graphic information from one location to another by
producing a copy or “facsimile” of that information
d the remote location. A fax unit transmits audio
ones over the same telephone lines you use for
lerson-to-person conversation.
The facsimile process involves three basic steps:
Reading and converting the document into
1.
electronic signals (audio tones).
Sending, or transmitting, the signals through a
2.
telephone system, to another fax unit.

disassembling. Then close the cover.
3. Converting the received signals into a “facsimile”
of the transmitted document.
This is a simplified explanation of the actual
facsimile process. Although all fax units operate by
this same basic process, specific operating
procedures differ from unit to unit.
About Facsimile Compatibility
The
CCITT
International Telephone and Telegraph), which sets
worldwide standards for data communication,
classifies facsimile devices into three groups. The
grouping is based on how a fax unit sends
information, in what form, and at which speed.
To simplify, you can think of fax units as being
grouped by speed: Group 1 includes 6 minute units,
Group 2 includes 3 minute units, and Group 3
includes sub-minute units. These speeds refer to
the amount of time it takes a fax unit to send or
receive a standard business letter over the
telephone lines.
