About Fax Machines
If you’re a first-time fax machine user, fax operation might seem a little
mysterious. Soon, you’ll recognize the unusual fax tones on your phone
line, and be able to send and receive faxes easily.
(For USA Only)
Fax Tones and Handshake
When someone is sending a fax, the fax machine sends fax calling tones,
(CNG tones) — soft, intermittent beeps at 4-second intervals. You’ll hear
them when you dial and press
after dialing. During that time, the sending machine must begin the
“handshake” with the receiving machine. Each time you use automatic
procedures to send a fax, you are sending CNG tones over the phone line.
You’ll soon learn to listen for these soft beeps each time you answer a
phone on your fax line, so you can know if you are receiving a fax message .
The receiving fax responds with fax receiving tones—loud, chirping sounds.
A receiving fax chirps for about 40 seconds over the phone line, and the
screen displays RECEIVING. If your fax machine is set to the FAX mode, it
will answer every call automatically with fax receiving tones. Even if the
other party hangs up, your fax machine continues to send the “chirps” for
about 40 seconds, and the screen continues to display RECEIVING. To
cancel the receiving mode, press
Start
, and they continue for about 40 seconds
Stop
.
Page 15
INTRODUCTION
When your fax machine answers in FAX/TEL mode, it listens for CNG
tones and then responds with receiving tones.
The fax “handshake” is the time in which the sending machine’s CNG tones
and the receiving machines “chirps” overlap. This must be for at least 2 to 4
seconds, so the machines can understand how each is sending and receiving the
fax. The handshake cannot begin until the call is answered, and the CNG tones
only last for about 40 seconds after the number is dialed. Therefore, it’s
important for the receiving machine to answer the call in as few rings as
possible.
When you have an external telephone answering device (TAD) on your fax
line, your TAD will determine the number of rings before the call is
answered. Pay special attention to the directions in the Installation chapter for
connecting a TAD to your fax machine.
3
ECM (Error Correction Mode)
The Error Correction Mode (ECM) is a way for the fax machine to check
the integrity of a fax transmission while it is in progress. ECM
transmissions are possible only between machines that both have the ECM
feature. If they do, you may send and receive fax messages that are
continuously checked for their integrity.
Sufficient memory must be available in your fax machine for this feature to
work.

FAX MACHINE SETUP AND CONNECTIONS
Choosing a Location
Place your fax machine on a flat, stable surface, such as a desk. Select a
place that is free of vibration and shocks. Locate the fax machine near a
telephone jack and a standard, grounded power outlet. Make sure nothing
blocks the flow of air from the fan on the right side of the machine.
Avoid placing your machine in a high-traffic area. Do not place near
heaters, air conditioners, water, chemicals or refrigerators. Do not expose
the fax machine to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture or dust. Make
sure nothing blocks the flow of air from the fan on the right side of the
machine. Do not connect your machine to electrical outlets controlled by
wall switches or automatic timers. Disruption of power can wipe out
information in the unit’s memory. Do not connect your machine to electrical
outlets on the same circuit as large appliances or other equipment that might
disrupt the power supply. Avoid interference sources, such as speakers or
the base units of cordless phones.

Connecting an External
Telephone Answering Device (TAD)
Sequence
You might choose to connect an additional answering system. When you have
an external TAD on the same telephone line as the fax machine, the TAD
answers all calls. The fax machine “listens” for fax calling (CNG) tones. If it
hears them, the fax machine takes over the call and receives the fax. If it
doesn’t hear CNG tones, the fax machine lets the TAD continue playing your
outgoing message so your caller can leave you a voice message.
The TAD must answer within four rings. The fax machine cannot hear CNG
tones until the TAD has answered the call, and with four rings there are only
8–10 seconds of CNG tones left for the fax “handshake.” Make sure you
carefully follow the instructions in this manual for recording your outgoing
message.
Do not connect a TAD elsewhere on the same phone line—your fax machine
and TAD will both try to control the line.
Page 30

CHAPTER TWO
Connections
The external TAD must be plugged into the left side of the fax machine, into
the jack labeled EXT. Your fax machine cannot work properly if you plug
the TAD into a wall jack.

Connecting an External Telephone
Your fax machine is equipped with a handset that you can use as a regular
phone. However, you can also connect a separate telephone (or telephone
answering device) directly to your fax machine.
Connect the modular plug on the telephone’s line cord to the jack labeled
EXT. on the left side of the fax machine.
Whenever this phone (or TAD) is in use, the screen displays EXT. TEL IN USE,
and, if the fax machine handset is lifted, an alarm sounds. To disconnect the call
on the external phone and switch to the fax machine, press
Hook
.
Special Line Considerations
See
Easy Receive
p. 35
Roll Over Phone Lines
A roll over phone system is a group of two or more separate telephone lines
that pass incoming calls to each other if they are busy. The calls are usually
passed down or “rolled over” to the next available phone line in a preset order.
Your fax machine can work in a roll over system as long as it is the last
number in the sequence, so the call cannot roll away. Do not put the fax
machine on any of the other numbers—when the other lines are busy and a
second fax call is received, the fax call would be transferred to a line that
does not have a fax machine. Your fax machine will work best on a
dedicated line.
Two-Line Phone System
A two-line phone system is nothing more than two separate phone numbers
on the same wall outlet. The two phone numbers can be on separate jacks
(RJ11) or combined into one jack (RJ14). Your fax machine must be
plugged into an RJ11 jack. RJ11 and RJ14 jacks may be equal in size and
appearance and both may contain four wires (black, red, green, yellow). To
test the type of jack, plug in a two-line phone and see if it can access both
lines. If it can, you must separate the line for your fax machine.
Page 32
20
CHAPTER TWO
Converting T elephone Wall Outlets
There are three ways to convert to an RJ11 receptacle. The first two ways
may require assistance from the telephone company. You can change the
wall outlets from one RJ14 jack to two RJ11 jacks. Or, you can have an
RJ11 wall outlet installed and slave or jump one of the phone numbers to it.
The third way is the easiest: Buy a triplex adapter. You can plug a triplex
adapter into an RJ14 outlet. It separates the wires into two separate RJ11
jacks (Line 1, Line 2) and a third RJ14 jack (Lines 1 and 2). Plug the fax
machine into Line 2 of the triplex adapter.

Installing Fax Machine, External Two-Line TAD,
and T wo-Line Telephone
When you are installing an external two-line telephone answering device
(TAD) and a two-line telephone, your fax machine must be isolated on one
line at both the wall jack and at the TAD. The most common connection is
to put the fax machine on Line 2. The back of the two-line TAD must have
two telephone jacks: one labeled L1 or L1/L2, and the other labeled L2. You
will need at least three telephone line cords, the one that came with your fax
machine and two for your external two-line TAD. You will need a fourth
line cord if you add a two-line telephone.
Place the two-line TAD and the two-line telephone next to your fax machine.
1
Plug one end of the telephone line cord for your fax machine into the
2
L2 jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the LINE jack on
the left side of the fax machine.
Plug one end of the first telephone line cord for your TAD into the L1
3
jack of the triplex adapter. Plug the other end into the L1 or L1/L2 jack
of the two-line TAD.
Page 33

Triplex Adapter
Two-Line External TADFax Machine
Two-Line Phone
You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are
two ways to add a two-line telephone to the fax machine’s wall outlet. You
can plug the telephone line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2
jack of the triplex adapter. Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the
TEL jack of the two-line TAD.
Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively
simple to connect the fax machine to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch
Exchange), we suggest that you contact the company that installed your
telephone system and ask them to connect the fax machine for you. It is
advisable to have a separate line for the fax machine. You can then leave the
fax machine in FAX mode to receive faxes any time of day or night.
See
Easy Receive
p. 35
If the fax machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your
installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the
unit from being activated each time a telephone call is received.
As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system.
If your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the fax machine
cannot be made.
Page 34
22
CHAPTER TWO
If you are installing the fax machine to work with a PBX:
It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all
1
circumstances with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported
first to the company that handles your PBX.
If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is
2
recommended that the Answer mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming
calls should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
The fax machine may be used with either pulse or tone dialing telephone
3
service.

Polling is the process of retrieving faxes from another fax machine. You can
use your fax machine to “poll” other machines, or you can have someone
poll your machine.
All parties involved in polling need to set up their fax machines to
accommodate polling. When someone polls your machine to receive a fax,
they pay for the call; if you poll someone’s fax machine to receive a fax,
you pay for the call.

Distinctive Ringing
This fax machine feature lets you use the Distinctive Ringing subscriber
service offered by some telephone companies, which allows you to have
several telephone numbers on one phone line. Each phone number has its own
Distinctive Ringing pattern, so you’ll know which phone number is ringing.
This is one way you can have a separate phone number for your fax machine.
Your fax machine has a Distinctive Ringing function, allowing you to dedicate
one phone number just for receiving faxes. You’ll need to follow the directions
below to “register” the new Distinctive Ringing pattern, that was assigned by
the Telephone Company, so your fax machine can recognize its incoming calls.
You can change or cancel the Distinctive Ringing pattern at any time. You
can switch it off temporarily, then turn it back on. When you get a new fax
number, be sure to reset this function.
If you are not sure which ring pattern you have call your telephone
company. Then assign your ring pattern in the steps below.
You can register only one Distinctive Ringing pattern with the fax machine.
Some ringing patterns cannot be registered.
■
The fax machine will answer only calls to its registered number.
■
To have your TAD answer only the main number, the fax machine must
be in Manual mode.
■
In FAX/TEL or FAX mode, the fax machine will answer all numbers on
the phone line.

Caller ID
The Caller ID feature of this fax machine lets you use the Caller ID
subscriber service offered by many local phone companies. This service
provides you, by means of the screen display, the name or telephone number
of your caller as the line rings.
After a few rings, the screen displays the telephone number of your caller
(or name, if available). Once you pick up the handset, the Caller ID
information disappears from the screen, but the call information remains
stored in the Caller ID memory.
