Important safety instructions

Read these safety instructions thoroughly before using your fax.

Except as specifically described in this guide, do not attempt to service the fax yourself. Never attempt to disassemble the fax: opening and removing its interior covers will expose you to

dangerous voltages and other risks. For all service, contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

■ Handling and maintenance

• Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the fax.

• Do not subject the fax to strong physical shock or vibration.

• Always unplug the fax before moving or cleaning it.

• To avoid paper jams, never unplug the power cord, open the printer cover, or remove paper from

the multi-purpose tray while printing.

• When transporting the fax, leave the BJ cartridge installed in the cartridge holder and tape the

cartridge holder to the right side of the fax. This will prevent ink spilling inside the fax.

• Always lift the fax as shown below. Never lift it by any of its attachments.

• Do not push objects of any kind into the slots or openings on the cabinet as they may touch

dangerous voltage points or short out parts. This could result in fire or electric shock.

• Do not allow small objects (such as pins, paper clips, or staples) to fall into the fax. If something

does fall into the fax, unplug it immediately and contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• To avoid spillage in or around the fax, do not eat or drink near it. If you spill liquid or if any

substance falls into the fax, unplug the fax immediately and contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• Keep the fax clean. Dust accumulation can prevent the fax from operating properly.

• Unplug the fax from the wall outlet and refer service to qualified personnel under the following

conditions:

– When the power cord or plug is damaged or frayed. – If liquid has spilled into the fax. – If the fax has been exposed to rain or water. – If the fax does not operate normally when you have followed the instructions in this guide.

Adjust only those controls that are covered by the instructions in this guide. Improper adjustment of other controls may result in damage and may require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to normal operation.

– If the fax has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. – If the fax exhibits a distinct change in performance, indicating a need for servicing.

Important safety instructions

■ Location

• Place the fax on a flat, stable, vibration-free surface that is strong enough to support its weight

(approx. 5.8 kg).

• Place the fax in a cool, dry, clean, well ventilated place.

– Make sure the area is free from dust. – Make sure the location is not affected by extreme temperature changes, and always stays

between 10° and 32.5°C.

– Make sure the area’s relative humidity is always between 20% and 85%.

• Keep the fax away from direct sunlight as this can damage it. If you have to place it near a

window, install heavy curtains or blinds.

• Do not use the fax near water. Make sure that no wet or humid objects come into contact with the fax.

• Do not use or store the fax outdoors.

• Do not install the fax near devices that contain magnets or generate magnetic fields, such as speakers.

• If possible, place the fax near an existing telephone outlet to avoid the expense of installing a new one.

• Place the fax near a standard 200–240 V AC power outlet.

• To ensure reliable operation of the fax and to protect it from overheating (which can cause it to

operate abnormally and create a fire risk), do not block the exhaust vent and never block or cover any openings on the fax by placing it on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. Do not place the fax in a cupboard or built-in installation, or near a radiator or other heat source unless proper ventilation is provided. Install the fax approximately 10 cm away from walls and other equipment. For the dimensions of the fax, see p. S-1.

• Do not stack boxes or furniture around the power outlet. Keep the area free so you can reach the

outlet quickly. If you notice anything unusual (smoke, strange odours, noises) around the fax, unplug it immediately. Contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not place the fax where the cord will be

walked on. Make sure the cord is not knotted or kinked.

■ Power supply

• During electrical storms, disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. (Please note that any

documents stored in the fax’s memory will be deleted when you unplug the fax.)

• Whenever you unplug the fax, wait at least five seconds before you plug it in again.

• If dust accumulates around the plug of the power cord when it is connected to a power outlet,

unplug the fax and wipe the plug with a clean, dry cloth.

This product emits low level magnetic flux. If you use a cardiac pacemaker and feel abnormalities, please move away from this product and

consult your doctor.

Installing the BJ cartridge

The first time you set up your fax, you have to install the BJ cartridge before you can begin receiving and copying documents.

For information on replacing the BJ cartridge, see p. 10-8.

Guidelines _____________________________________

Follow these guidelines to ensure optimum performance of your BJ cartridge.

• Use only a Canon BX-20 Black BJ cartridge in your fax.

• Store BJ cartridges at room temperature.

• Keep BJ cartridges in their packaging until you are ready to use them. This is to prevent the BJ

cartridge from drying out.

• Replace BJ cartridges after one year of use.

• Never remove the BJ cartridge unless you are going to replace it. When left exposed, the cartridge

print head dries out, making it unusable.

• To change a BJ cartridge, be sure to press [Cartridge] (on the operation panel) to move the cartridge holder to the centre.

• Make sure the cartridge holder is in its home position (on the right side of the fax) when you are not using the fax. If it is not in its home position, press [Cartridge]. Leaving the cartridge holder out of its home position will cause the BJ cartridge to remain uncapped and dry out.

• Store BJ cartridges out of the reach of

The ink in the BJ cartridge is difficult to clean up if spilled. Follow the precautions below when handling the BJ cartridge.

• Carefully remove packaging from BJ cartridges.

• Do not attempt to disassemble or refill BJ cartridges.

• Do not shake or drop BJ cartridges or tip the print head downwards.

Loading paper

Selecting the right kind of paper ______________

The quality of the paper you use affects the print quality of the fax. Using paper that meets the following guidelines will ensure the best possible printing results.

Paper guidelines _______________________________

• Be sure to load paper of the correct size, weight, and quantity recommended for your fax. (see p. 4-2)

• Store all paper wrapped and on a flat surface until ready to use. Keep opened packs in their original packaging, in a cool, dry location.

• Store paper at 18°–24°C, 40%–60% relative humidity.

• To avoid paper jams and poor print quality, do not print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper.

• Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll.

• Use only paper that has a thickness of between 0.08 and 0.13 mm. Thick paper may damage the BJ

cartridge print head.

• Do not load paper beyond the paper limit mark (P) or beyond the tab on the multi-purpose tray. Doing so may cause problems. Also, make sure there are no gaps on either side of the paper stack.

Paper limit mark

No gaps here

• The capacity of the output tray is 50 sheets of paper. To prevent paper jams, remove paper from the output tray before the count reaches 50.

• Let the paper run out before refilling the multi-purpose tray. Avoid mixing new stock with paper already loaded.

• Do not leave paper stacked in the multi-purpose tray for long periods of time since it may bend or curl and cause problems.

• Certain environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures or humidity, can cause some paper to misfeed in the multi-purpose tray. If you have trouble, feed one sheet at a time.

• Depending on the density of the printed pages, the ink may need time to dry. Within two or three seconds, the ink becomes smudge resistant. After drying for several minutes, the ink becomes water-resistant.

• If your printed page contains a large amount of graphics, the ink on the page may be damp due to the print density. Leave the page in the output tray for 30 to 60 seconds to allow the ink to dry. Then remove the page carefully without touching any surfaces.

• If paper curls after printing, remove it immediately; otherwise paper jams may occur.

• The platen (a roller inside the fax) may become inked if you print data beyond the width of the

page. If this happens, clean inside the fax. (see p. 10-4)

Loading paper

Loading paper in the multi-purpose tray_______

Follow the procedure below to load paper in the multi-purpose tray.

Make sure the paper thickness lever is

set to m (left).

• Do not set the paper thickness lever

while the fax is printing since this will cause problems.

• The paper thickness lever should always be set to m (left) for the best printing results.

Fan the stack of paper that you want to feed into the fax. Then tap the edge of the stack on a flat surface to even the stack.

Raise the paper rest until it stops q, then

move the paper guide to the left to match the size of your paper w.

Insert the stack into the multi-purpose

tray q, and align the right edge of the stack with the right side of the multipurpose tray. Then slide the paper guide snugly against the left edge of the stack w.

SETTING UP

• The multi-purpose tray holds up to 100 sheets of 75 g/m2 plain paper.

• Make sure the stack does not exceed the paper limit mark (P).

Testing the fax _________________________________

After you have assembled the fax, installed the BJ cartridge, and loaded the paper, you can make sure the fax is printing properly by making several copies of a document. (see p. 5-2)

If you have problems printing, see Chapter 10.

The quickest way to dial a fax number is to use one-touch speed dialling. This allows you to dial a number by pressing a single button. Before you can use one-touch speed dialling, you must register the receiving number with your fax. One-touch speed dialling allows you to register a fax number (up to 120 digits) under a one-touch speed dialling button (01 to 07)*. You can also register the name of the party (up to 16 characters); the name appears on the printout of the one-touch speed dialling list. See One-touch speed dialling list, p. 9-8.

Special dialling

This section explains how to dial long-distance numbers and confirm a dial tone.

■ Long-distance dialling

When you register a long-distance number, you may have to insert a pause within or after the number. For long-distance dialling, the location and length of the pause may differ depending on the telephone system. To enter a pause, press [Redial/Pause]. A pause within a number is 2 seconds long*. The length of this pause can be adjusted. See MID PAUSE SET, p. 9-4. A pause at the end of a number is fixed at 10 seconds.

■ Confirming a dial tone**

When you register a number, you may have to confirm the dial tone in the middle of a fax/telephone number before entering the rest of the number. This is called dial tone detection. When dial tone detection is required, press [D.T.]; a small dot (.) appears on the LCD.

* 4 seconds long in the UK and Hong Kong. Users in Hong Kong cannot enter continuous pauses. ** This feature is ineffective in the UK, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia.

Using alternative telephone networks (UK only)

The fax has a built-in feature that allows you to send documents and make telephone calls with an alternative long-distance service, such as the UK Call, Global Call, and Day Call Services of Cable and Wireless Communications Limited available to users in the UK. If you subscribe to such a service, you can save money on most long-distance and international communications. The procedures described below show you how to use your fax with the services of Cable and Wireless Communications Limited. For details on using your fax with other alternative telephone services, contact your local authorised Canon dealer or the Canon help line.

Attaching the M label__________________________

If you are using an alternative long-distance service, attach the M label provided with your fax below the button shown here. This will help you identify the button you must press when using one of these services.

• Remove all staples, paper clips, etc. before loading the document into the ADF.

• Make sure any glue, ink or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading the

document into the ADF.

• Make a photocopy of any document that will not feed into the fax so that you can then load the copy

into the ADF.

Page 52

Loading documents

Follow the procedure below to load documents into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).

Open the document tray.

Gently insert the top of the document

face down into the ADF until you hear a beep.

Adjust the document guides to the width

of the document.

HANDLING DOCUMENTS

Tap multipage documents on a flat surface to even the edges before inserting them into the ADF.

• For a multipage document, the pages are fed one by one from the bottom of the stack.

• Wait until all pages of your document have been scanned before starting a new job.

• Make sure you follow the procedure above to load documents into the ADF. If the document is not

loaded into the ADF correctly, it may not feed into the fax properly; resulting in a jam, or in pages not being sent.

• If you want to send a document with more than 20 pages, divide the document into 2 sections and

send each section in a separate transmission.

3-3

Page 53

Problems with multipage documents__________

If you have trouble feeding multipage documents from the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) into the fax, remove the stack and tap it on a flat surface to even the edges. Then slant the stack so that its front edge is bevelled, and insert the stack into the ADF.

To avoid feeding problems, make sure the document meets the document requirements. (see p. 3-2)

Adding pages to the document ________________

You can load up to 20 A4- or letter-size sheets, or 10 legal-size sheets at a time into the ADF. For longer documents, wait until the final sheet has started feeding, then load up to 20 more sheets (10 for legal-size). If you want to add pages while the fax is sending a document, insert the first new page so that it overlaps the last page by about 2 cm.

3-4

2 cm

Where possible, you should avoid adding pages to the document you are sending as this may lead to a jam in the ADF or a paper misfeed.

Adjusting the quality of your documents______

■ Setting the scanning resolution

Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. Low resolutions may cause text and graphics to have a jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a better match to traditional typeface designs.

The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the slower the scanning speed.

Press [Resolution] to select the resolution.

You can select FAX STANDARD, FAX FINE or FAX PHOTO.

After about 10 seconds, the fax returns to standby mode.

You can change the resolution setting while the document is being scanned for sending. However, please note that your new setting will only be effective from the next page scanned.

Resolution

Ex:

FAX PHOTO

■ Setting the scanning contrast

Contrast is the difference in brightness between the lightest and darkest parts of a printed document. You can adjust the contrast your fax uses to send or copy documents, according to how light or dark your document is.

Sending methods ______________________________

SENDING DOCUMENTS

■ Memory sending (see p. 6-5)

Each time you send a document, the fax quickly scans the document into memory and then sends the document from memory after it has dialled the receiving party. This is called memory sending. Memory sending allows you to remove the original document immediately after scanning. If MEMOR Y FULL appears on the LCD when you load the document into the ADF, dial the receiving number and press [Start/Copy]. In this case, the document is not scanned into memory but is sent directly to the receiving party.

■ Manual sending (see p. 6-6)

If you would like to speak with the receiving party before sending a document to them, use manual sending. When sending manually, you dial, converse normally and then press [Start/Copy] to begin sending. For manual sending, you need to have the handset (included with your fax) or an optional extension phone connected.

■ Internet fax (see the separate Internet Fax Manual)

6-3

Page 61

Dialling methods ______________________________

There are several methods of dialling the receiving party’s number, depending on how your fax is set up.

■ Regular dialling

Dial a fax number using the numeric buttons. Remember that when using regular dialling, you must press [Start/Copy] after entering the number.

■ One-touch speed dialling (see p. 2-12)

Dial a fax number that has been registered under a one-touch speed dialling button by simply pressing the corresponding one-touch speed dialling button.

■ Coded speed dialling (see p. 2-14)

Dial a fax number that has been registered under a coded speed dialling code by pressing [Coded Dial/Directory] and the two-digit code under which the number is registered. Scroll through coded speed dialling locations by pressing [Coded Dial/Directory] and then using [1] or [2] to scroll through a list of coded speed dialling codes under which numbers have been registered.

■ Group dialling (see p. 2-15)

Dial fax numbers registered in a group by either pressing a single button, or by pressing [Coded Dial/Directory] and then entering the two-digit code under which the group is registered.

■ Directory dialling (see p. 2-19)

Dial a fax number after looking up the receiving party’s name and retrieving the number.

6-4

Sending documents

Memory sending _______________________________

When you send a document, the fax uses memory sending to send your document. With memory sending, the fax quickly scans the document into memory. Then, after it dials the receiving party, it sends the document from memory. This means you do not have to wait for the fax to finish sending before you can retrieve your original document. You can send up to 20* A4-size pages at a time with memory sending (based on the Canon FAX Standard Chart No.1, standard resolution).

If MEMORY FULL appears on the LCD when you load the document into the ADF, simply dial the receiving number and press [Start/Copy]. In this case, the document is not scanned into memory but is

sent directly to the receiving party.

Follow the procedure below to send a document.

Open the document tray.

Load the document face down into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).

See Loading documents, p. 3-3. You can set the scanning resolution and contrast. (see p. 6-2)

Dial the receiving party’s fax number.

Use one of the dialling methods described earlier in this chapter. (see p. 6-4)

Press [Start/Copy].

If the TIME OUT setting is set to ON the fax will start scanning automatically. (see p. 9-4)

▼

The fax scans the document into memory and begins sending.

• If an error occurs during sending, the fax beeps intermittently for a few seconds. If this happens, try

sending the document again.

• The fax automatically redials if the receiving party does not answer or if the line is busy. (You can

specify the number of times it redials; see AUTO REDIAL, p. 9-4.)

• If an error message appears on the LCD, correct the error and then press [Stop]. See LCD messages,

p. 10-18.

• You may not be able to use memory sending if the percentage of currently used memory shown on

the LCD is close to 100%. If the memory becomes full while the fax is scanning your document into memory, MEMORY FULL is displayed on the LCD. If this should happen, you can wait until enough memory is available and the fax begins to scan the document again automatically, or you can choose to print or delete one of the documents already scanned into the memory (see pp. 6-16, 6-17). If you want to remove the document from the fax and try to send it again later, open the operation panel and remove the document. In this case, see Jams in the Automatic Document Feeder, p. 10-2.

Redialling when the line is busy

There are two methods of redialling: manual redialling and automatic redialling. This section explains these two methods.

Manual redialling ______________________________

Press [Redial/Pause] to dial the last number you dialled with the numeric buttons. (This starts redialling regardless of whether automatic redialling is enabled.)

■ Cancelling manual redialling

To cancel manual redialling, press [Stop].

Automatic redialling___________________________

■ What is automatic redialling?

When you are sending a document using memory sending and the receiving party’s line is busy, the fax waits the specified time and then dials the same number again. You can set the fax to redial several times if previous attempts fail because of a busy signal. This feature is called automatic redialling.

SENDING DOCUMENTS

After the initial dial attempt, the fax is factory-set to wait two minutes and then try to dial again. If the second attempt fails because the line was busy, the fax will again wait for two minutes and make a final attempt to complete the call.

Automatic redialling can be turned off and on. The number of redialling attempts and the time interval between attempts can also be adjusted. (see AUTO REDIAL, p. 9-4)

If all redialling attempts are unsuccessful, the fax will cancel the transmission and print an ERROR TX REPORT to remind you that the transmission was not completed. (see p. 9-12)

When automatic redialling is in use, the LCD alternately displays AUTO REDIAL and the transaction number (TX/RX NO. xxxx) while it is waiting to redial.

Other features

Receiving documents while performing other tasks___________________________________________

Your fax is a multitasking device so it can receive documents and voice calls while you are performing other tasks. If you receive a document while performing certain tasks, the fax stores the incoming document in memory. As soon as you finish your task, the fax automatically prints the document.

Receiving documents in memory when a problem occurs ________________________________

If your fax encounters a problem when receiving a document, it automatically stores the unprinted pages in memory, and the LCD displays REC’D IN MEMORY as well as one or more messages. For an explanation of the message(s) and details on the action to take, see p. 10-18.

• The fax memory can store up to approximately 50 pages.*

• You can set the fax not to store documents in memory if a problem occurs during reception.

(see MEMORY RX, p. 9-5)

• Once the pages are printed, they are deleted from memory.

• If the memory becomes full, you will not be able to receive the remaining pages. Contact the sending

party and ask them to resend the remainder of the document.

Polling to receive documents__________________

The polling feature allows you to request a document to be faxed to you from another fax machine. The sending party only needs to make sure the document is on a fax machine and ready to be sent. Thus, when your fax polls the other fax machine, the document is sent automatically. The fax can poll any fax machine that supports polling.

• Before attempting to poll a fax machine, make sure that the other fax machine supports polling.

• Your fax cannot be polled by another fax machine.

Follow the procedure below to poll another fax machine.

Press [Function].

▼

Press [Polling].

Dial the fax number of the fax machine you wish to poll.

Use one of the dialling methods described on page 6-4.

Press [Start/Copy].

Your fax begins receiving the document.

If the other party is using a Canon fax machine which has the Polling ID function, ask them to set the Polling ID of their fax machine to 255 (11111111 binary number).

For details on the Polling ID, see the other party’s fax machine manual. In all other cases the Polling ID is not a concern.

Telstra FaxStream™ Duet (Australia only)

Telstra offers the FaxStream™ Duet capability. If you subscribe to this service, your line is assigned two numbers: one for fax and one for phone. When the fax number is called, the network sends a specific ringing tone which your fax recognises and automatically handles as a fax call. If the phone number is called, a different ringing tone is sent out from the network so that the call is handled as a voice call. This means that there is no switching delay at the other party’s end. Contact Telstra for connection information.

Setting the fax for network switch ____________

• When the fax number is called, you will hear a triple-ring* ringing tone.

• When the telephone number is called, you will hear a ringing tone other than the triple-ring

ringing tone. The ringing tone depends on your switchboard.

The procedures for using the network switch system are almost the same as when using the fax over a normal telephone line. When you receive calls, however, the fax will respond slightly differently as described below.

When you hear the telephone call ring pattern:

Pick up the handset and talk normally. If you hear a slow beep, it means the call is from a fax machine trying to send a document. Press [Start/Copy] to receive the document. If you do not pick up the handset, the fax continues to ring until the other party hangs up. If an answering machine is connected, it takes over the call.
