Precautions

General
Make sure the place where you set up the fax satisfies the following conditions:
Over 32.5°C Under 10°C
Use the fax only within the following temperature and
humidity ranges. Ambient temperature: 10°C to 32.5°C Ambient humidity: 10% to 80% RH (no condensation)
Keep your fax out of direct sunlight, as this can damage the
unit.
Do not lift the fax by the operation panel.
If you have installed the optional handset, do not lift the fax
by the handset cradle.
Hold the fax as shown when transporting.
vi
PRECAUTIONS
Place the fax on a level surface.
Do not remove the BJ cartridge from the unit unless it needs to
be replaced, or when transporting the fax. Removing the cartridge and leaving the print head unprotected will cause it to dry out and become unusable.
Do not place the fax on the edge of a desk so as to prevent received documents from falling onto the
floor.
Certain table surfaces may prevent received documents from sliding out smoothly, resulting in paper
jams. Do not place the fax on these types of tables.
Do not install the fax near devices which contain magnets or generate magnetic fields.
Do not subject the fax to strong physical shock or vibration.
Keep the fax clean. Dust accumulation can prevent the fax from operating properly.
Before you transport your fax, be sure to remove the BJ cartridge and recover the print head with the
orange tape. After moving the fax, remove the orange tape and reload the BJ cartridge.
Others
Here are some other general precautions when using or working around the fax.
CAUTION
Avoid installing your fax in places exposed to direct sunlight, dust, vibration, high temperature or
humidity, or on unstable surfaces.
To assure proper electrical contact, make sure the fax is firmly plugged in.
Never pull on the cord to unplug the fax. Pull on the plug itself.
WARNING
For cardiac pacemaker users:
This product emits low level electromagnetic waves. If you use a cardiac pacemaker and feel abnormalities, please move away from this product and consult your doctor.
Do not overload the electrical outlet where the fax is plugged in.
Never plug or unplug the fax when your hands are wet.
For your safety, unplug the fax during electrical storms.
If you have problems with the fax (smoke, odd smells or noises), immediately unplug the fax
from the outlet. Keep the area around the outlet free from clutter so you can unplug the fax quickly in case of an emergency.
Never use liquids or drink beverages around the fax. Liquids spilled on the fax can cause a
fire or electrical shock. If you accidentally spill a liquid on the fax, unplug it immediately and call your Canon service representative.
To avoid electrical shock from exposed power points, never disassemble the fax. There are
no parts or switches in the fax that require adjustment.

Installing the BJ cartridge
The first time you set up your fax, you have to install the BX-3 BJ FAX cartridge before you can begin receiving and copying documents.
BJ cartridge guidelines
Use only the Canon BX-3 BJ FAX cartridge with the FAX-B155.
The actual amount of ink that you use will vary depending on the print density of a page. If the majority of your printed output is graphics, you may need to change the ink cartridge more often than when you are receiving or copying text only.
You may need to replace the BJ cartridge when either of the following conditions exist:
Your printed output is not crisp and clear, and there are gaps in the characters (missing dots) even
after you have cleaned the print head once or twice and you have removed and reinstalled the BJ cartridge.
You have been using the BJ cartridge for over one year.
11111111111111111111111111
Note
To ensure optimum print quality, Canon recommends the use of the cartridges designated by
Canon. Canon accepts no liability or responsibility for damages caused by the use of any cartridge other than those designated by Canon.
Canon makes numerous ink cartridges; the BX-3 BJ FAX cartridge is the only one designed to be
used with the FAX-B155.
9
SETTING UP
Handling the BJ cartridge
Leave the BJ cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to use it to prevent it from drying out.
Store BJ cartridges out of the reach of children. The ink contains isopropyl alcohol 67-63-0.
Replace the BJ cartridge after one year of use or if the print is not clear or is missing, even after
trying five successive head cleanings.
Never remove the BJ cartridge unless you are going to replace it. When left exposed, the cartridge
print head dries out, making it unusable.
Do not touch the print head area on the BJ cartridge. Ink
may leak out and cause stains.
Never shake the BJ cartridge, especially after removing the
protective tape from the print head.
If spilled, the ink is very difficult to clean. Therefore, always follow the above precautions and carefully handle the BJ cartridge.

Note:
Users in the UK only:
Although this equipment can use either rotary pulse or touch tone, only the performance of the touch tone setting is subject to regulatory requirements for correct operation. It is therefore strongly recommended that the equipment is set to use touch tone for access to public or private emergency services. Touch tone also provides faster call set up.
16
Setting up to receive faxes
Selecting the receiving mode
Before you set up the receiving mode on your fax, you should determine how you plan to use your fax:
Are you able to dedicate the use of one telephone line to the fax only to receive document
transmissions from other fax machines? If yes, choose Fax Only Mode (see below).
Do you want to use your fax as both a telephone and fax, receiving documents automatically and
ringing only for telephone calls? If yes, choose Fax/Tel Mode (see below).
Do you want to use your fax mainly as a telephone, and answer every call yourself, whether from a
person or a fax unit? If yes, choose Manual Mode (see below).
Do you want to connect an answering machine to your fax and receive the other party’s document
and also record the other party’s message? If yes, choose Ans. Machine mode (see below).
How you answer these questions will determine which receiving method you choose. If you are not satisfied with the mode you select, you can always change it at any time.
j Fax Only Mode (See p. 18)
You may want to use this mode if you have two phone lines in your office, and plan to use one line for the fax and the other line for your telephone. Set Fax Only Mode if you want to use your fax only to receive faxes automatically and do not intend to use it as a telephone.
j Fax/Tel Mode (See p. 19)
If you only have one phone line in your office, you may be planning to use it for both fax and telephone communication. By setting this mode, you will be able to use your fax for both fax and telephone communication using only one phone line. You will need to have the optional handset or an extension phone connected to the fax so that when it rings to alert you of a call, you can answer the call. The fax will automatically receive faxes without ringing.

j Manual Mode (See p. 20)
Use Manual Mode if you receive more telephone calls than faxes. By having a telephone or the optional handset connected to your fax, you can answer every call, whether from a person or from another fax unit. If you hear a slow beep, simply press [Start/Copy] on your fax and hang up the handset to receive the fax.
j Ans. Machine Mode (See p. 21)
Use Ans. Machine Mode if you have an answering machine connected to the fax. This mode allows you to receive not only documents sent from other fax machines, but also messages from people calling when you are out.
