11Before Using Your Machine

Turning the Machine ON and OFF

ENGLISH

Turn on the machine before using.

 Turning on the Machine

Before turning on the machine, confirm that the FINE Cartridge is set into place.

Note

If preparatory operations are not yet finished, follow your setup sheet to complete them.

1 To turn on the machine, press [ON].

[ON] flashes green for a while, and then turns on.

Note

z If an error message is displayed on the LCD, see “LCD Messages” on page 85.
z When the machine is left inactive for more than 4 minutes 30 seconds, the LCD goes off

automatically and the machine enters the power saver mode. Press any button on the
Operation Panel except for [ON] to restore the display.

 Turning off the Machine

1 To turn off the machine, press [ON].

The machine is off after <SHUTTING DOWN...> is displayed on the LCD.

Important

z Always turn off the machine before disconnecting the power cord. This ensures the FINE

Cartridge is covered to prevent it from drying out.

z If the machine is not used for an extended period of time, we recommend making copies or

performing FINE Cartridge cleaning about once every month to prevent degradation of the FINE
Cartridge.

z The FINE Cartridge has many nozzles in order to produce high-definition prints. In the same

way that the tip of a felt-tip or marker pen will naturally dry out over time and become unusable
even with the cap in place, the nozzles might become clogged. Periodically printing or
performing FINE Cartridge cleaning can help to prevent this kind of clogging.

z If you change to another telephone line, turn off the machine before unplugging the telephone

line cable.

Note

The power cannot be turned off with [ON] while the machine is operating.

- Torn paper

- Coated paper or glossy paper

- Thick paper

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

Paper Requirements

Your fax supports A4-, letter-, and legal-size paper in portrait orientation. You can use regular copier
paper, cotton bond paper, or typical letterhead. Your fax does not require special ink jet paper.
Always use paper without curls, folds, staples, or damaged edges. Look at the label on the package
to see if the paper has a preferred side for printing.

into the ADF until you hear a beep, adjust the
Document Guide to the width of the
document.

z To avoid feeding problems, make sure the

document meets the document requirements (see

sections and send each section in a separate transmission.

z For multipage documents, tap the stack on a flat surface to even the edges before loading.

Copying

Making Copies

One of the convenient features of the fax is its ability to make high quality copies. You can make up
to 99 copies of one document at a time.

If you make copies of multiple documents at a time, the number of pages the fax can scan into
memory is as follows:

z <COPY STANDARD>/<COPY FINE>/<COPY DRAFT> = 10 pages

Note

z The number of pages the fax can scan into memory is not affected by the scanning resolutions (see

page 24).

z <COPY STANDARD> and <COPY FINE> result in the same resolution when making copies.
z If <MEMORY FULL> appears on the LCD when making multiple copies, see “Copying Problems” on

page 77.

z If paper jams, see “Troubleshooting” on page 72.

1 Load the document face up into the ADF.

See “Loading Documents and Paper” on page 21.

2 Press [Start/Copy]. The LCD displays <COPY PAGE 01>.
3 Press [Receive Mode/Resolution].

You can select <COPY STANDARD>, <COPY FINE>, or <COPY DRAFT>.

4 Enter the number of copies (up to 99) using the numeric buttons, then press [Start/

Copy].

To make a correction to the number of copies, press [Clear] and re-enter the number.
To stop copying anytime, press [Stop/Reset]. If the document does not eject, press [Start/

Copy] for a few seconds, then the fax will feed out the document. See “Jams in the ADF” on
page 72.

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.

Automatic redialing can be turned off and on. The number of redialing attempts and the time
interval between attempts can also be adjusted (see page 57).

If all redialing attempts are unsuccessful, the fax will cancel the transmission. You can set the fax
to print the ERROR TX REPORT to remind you that the transmission was not completed (see
