1-1Chapter 1 Introducing the FAX-L260i
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the new Canon FAX-L260i. The FAX-L260i is a G3/G4 facsimile unit that allows you to send documents at high speed, in the shortest time possible. We are sure that your FAX-L260i will help meet your fax requirements easily and conveniently, as well as your copying needs.
We are confident your new fax will greatly expand your work capacity and efficiency. Using the G4 facsimile standard with the ISDN network, this fax allows you to send large volumes of documents quickly and economically.
The fax has a number of features that make it ideal for small to medium-sized offices.
1-2 Chapter 1Introducing the FAX-L260i
The Main Features of the FAX-L260i
The FAX-L260i is a multifunction system for your home or small office. The FAX­L260i combines a plain paper fax machine and a copier, into a single, convenient desktop unit.
The FAX-L260i’s multitasking ability enables you to perform operations simultaneously. For example, you can make copies at the same time you are sending a fax or receiving a fax into memory.
The compact size of the FAX-L260i makes it ideal for desktop use, and lets you use it in places where other machines may not fit.
The FAX-L260i includes the following features:
Excellent print quality and speed
The FAX-L260i offers 600 × 600 dpi laser beam printing, providing you with high resolution text and graphics. The exceptional printing speed of 6 pages per minute allows you to work more effectively.
Simple maintenance
The FX-3 toner cartridge for the FAX-L260i contains both the toner and the drum, making installation and replacement simple.
Convenient paper handling
The FAX-L260i sheet feeder holds up to 100 sheets* of plain A4-size paper.
Economy toner-saving printing
The FAX-L260i includes an economy printing mode that uses up to approximately 50% less toner, resulting in longer cartridge life.
Flexible document feeding
The FAX-L260i includes an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) that can be set for automatic document feed or manual document feed, according to your needs. This allows you to fax a variety of documents, from multipage documents (up to 20 A4­size pages at a time), to a single photo or business card.
Fully ISDN compatible
You can connect the FAX-L260i directly to a Euro-ISDN multi-device connection.
*75g/m2paper
1-3Chapter 1 Introducing the FAX-L260i
Plain Paper Fax Features
UHQTMImage Processing System
The FAX-L260i uses Canon’s Ultra-High Quality Image Processing System to provide enhanced definition in faxed photos.
Error Correction Mode (ECM)
Using the FAX-L260i’s Error Correction Mode reduces transmission errors when sending faxes to or receiving faxes from G3 fax machines that also have ECM capability.
Transmission speed
The FAX-L260i uses G3 and G4 data encoding methods. G4 can increase transmission speed to approximately 3 seconds* per page. (G3’s maximum speed is approximately 6 seconds* per page.)
Memory sending/receiving
The FAX-L260i can store up to 230* fax pages (either received or to be sent) in its built-in memory, and can receive faxes while printing.
Reduced-size printing
The FAX-L260i automatically scales received faxes to fit the size of the paper loaded into the sheet feeder. So if your client is sending you a fax on paper larger than an A4-size page and you have A4-size paper in your sheet feeder, the fax will be scaled and printed on A4-size paper.
Automatic dialling and broadcasting
To make faxing even easier, the FAX-L260i provides several automatic dialling methods: coded speed dialling, one-touch speed dialling, and group dialling. The FAX-L260i also enables you to broadcast faxes or send faxes at a preset time to as many as 117 locations at once.
Access to ”touch-line” services
You can use the ON-HOOK button of your fax to access ”touch-line” services and request information to be faxed to you.
* Based on Canon FAX Standard Chart No.1, standard mode
1-4 Chapter 1Introducing the FAX-L260i
Copier Features
Up to 99 copies
The FAX-L260i can make up to 99 copies of a document at a time, at a rate of up to six copies per minute.
600 dpi and 300 dpi resolution
The FAX-L260i copies documents at 600 × 300 dpi when using direct copying, and 300 × 300 dpi when using memory copying.
Copy reduction
The FAX-L260i can reduce copies to 90%, 80%, or 70% of their original size. This allows you to copy legal-size documents onto A4-size paper, for example.

Safety Instructions
Read these safety instructions thoroughly before using your FAX-L260i, and keep them handy in case you need to refer to them later.
Except as specifically described in this user’s guide, do not attempt to service the FAX-L260i yourself. Never attempt to disassemble the unit: 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 service centre.
J Always follow all warnings and instructions marked on the FAX-L260i. J Use the FAX-L260i only on a sturdy, stable, level surface. If the unit falls, it
could be seriously damaged.
J Do not use the FAX-L260i near water. If you spill liquid on or into the unit,
unplug it immediately and call your local authorised Canon dealer or service centre.
J The back of the FAX-L260i includes slots and openings for ventilation. To keep
the FAX-L260i from overheating (which can cause it to operate abnormally and create a fire risk), take care not to block or cover these openings. Do not operate the unit on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar soft surface, or near a radiator or other heat source. Do not place the FAX-L260i in a cupboard or cabinet or on shelves unless adequate ventilation is available. See ”Choosing a Location for Your FAX-L260i” on page 2-3 for guidelines on how much space the unit needs for ventilation.
J Operate the FAX-L260i only from the type of power source indicated on the
unit’s label. If you are unsure of the type of power available from your wall outlets, contact your local power company.
J Make sure the total amperage used by all devices plugged into the wall outlet
does not exceed the ampere rating of the outlet’s circuit breaker.
J Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord or place the FAX-L260i where
the cord will be walked on. Make sure the cord is not knotted or kinked.
1-9Chapter 1 Introducing the FAX-L260i
J Do not insert objects of any kind into the slots or openings on the FAX-L260i’s
cabinet, as they could touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts, and result in fire or electric shock.
J Do not allow small objects (such as pins, paper clips, or staples) to fall into the

Choosing a Location for Your FAX­L260i
Before unpacking your FAX-L260i, follow these guidelines to choose an appropriate location for the unit.
Please review the information provided in ”Safety Instructions” on page 1-9, to make sure you are installing your FAX-L260i for safe use.
J Put the FAX-L260i in a cool, dry, clean, well ventilated place:
I Make sure the area is free from dust. I Make sure the location is not affected by extreme temperature fluctuations,
and remains between 10! and 32.5!C.
I Make sure the area’s relative humidity is always between 20% and 85%. J Keep the FAX-L260i away from direct sunlight. J If possible, place the FAX-L260i near an existing ISDN outlet, to allow for an
easy connection of the ISDN line to the unit. J Place the FAX-L260i near an electrical wall outlet that provides 200–240-volt AC
(50–60 Hz) power. J Do not plug the FAX-L260i into the same circuit as an appliance such as an air
conditioner, electric typewriter, television, or copier. Such devices generate
electrical noise that can interfere with your unit’s ability to send or receive faxes. J Set the FAX-L260i on a flat, stable, vibration-free surface that is strong enough
to support its weight (about 8.6 kg).
