Although this equipment can use either loop disconnect or DTMF signalling,
only the performance of the DTMF signalling is subject to regulatory
requirements for correct operation. It is therefore strongly recommended that
the equipment is set to use DTMF signalling for access to public or private
emergency services. DTMF signalling also provides faster call set up.

Notice for Connection to Telecommunication Systems in
the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland
Approval Number 607912
Your Canon MultiPASS L60 has been approved against the requirements of
NTR3 for use in the UK. The CE mark is applied in respect of the requirements
of 72/23 EEC and 89/336 EEC.
It is intended for connection to analogue two wire public telecommunication
networks.
Connect the supplied cable to this socket first, then to the telephone line.
This socket is intended for connection of the Canon optional telephone. If
required, an adapter to connect any piece of approved telecommunications
apparatus is available from your Canon supplier.
Canon recommend that any additional equipment connected in the installation is
connected to this ”handset” socket. Do not connect additional equipment
through parallel sockets elsewhere on the telephone line.
Voltage and current available at these sockets is determined by the network to
which the line cable is connected. They will not normally exceed the limits for
TNV as described in EN60950.
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) = 1
The REN is a guide to help calculate the maximum number of items of apparatus
that will ring when connected simultaneously to one phone line. The total RENs
of the individual items should not exceed 4. Correct ringing may not always be
possible even when total REN does not exceed 4. The REN value of a BT
telephone is assumed to be 1 unless otherwise marked.
This equipment is not intended or recommended for making calls to emergency
services.
iv Preface
EMC Directive
This equipment has been tested in a typical system to comply with the technical
requirements of the EMC directive. Use of a shielded cable is necessary to
comply with the technical requirements of the EMC Directive.
vPreface
Safety Information
Laser Safety
Laser radiation could be hazardous to the human body. For this reason, laser
radiation emitted inside this fax is hermetically sealed within the protective
housing and external cover. In the normal operation of the product by the user,
no radiation can leak from the machine.
Use of controls, adjustments, or performance of procedures other than those
specified in this user’s guide may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
This label is attached to the laser scanner unit inside the MultiPASS L60 and is
not in a user access area.

1-1Chapter 1 Introducing the MultiPASS L60
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the new Canon MultiPASS L60. We are sure that your
MultiPASS L60 will help meet your fax and phone requirements easily and
conveniently, as well as your printing, copying, and scanning needs.
1-2 Chapter 1Introducing the MultiPASS L60
The Main Features of the MultiPASS L60
The MultiPASS L60 is a complete multifunction system for your home or small
office. The MultiPASS L60 combines the following essential office machines into
a single, convenient desktop unit:
J Plain Paper Fax Machine J Printer
J Copier J PC Fax
J Scanner J Telephone*
Your MultiPASS L60 also includes the MultiPASS Desktop Manager for
WindowsH. This exclusive Canon software package provides you with a ”PC Fax”
– you can print, fax, scan, and use the telephone from within your PC’s Windows
environment.
The MultiPASS L60’s multitasking ability enables you to perform a number of
operations simultaneously. For example, you can print, scan a document, or make
copies at the same time you are sending a fax or receiving a fax into memory.
The compact size of the MultiPASS L60 makes it ideal for desktop use, and
allows you to use it in places where other machines may not fit.
* Requires the optional handset, a telephone, or an answering machine.
1-3Chapter 1 Introducing the MultiPASS L60
Plain Paper Fax Features
UHQTMImage Processing System
The MultiPASS L60 uses Canon’s Ultra-High Quality Image Processing System
to provide enhanced definition in faxed photos.
Error Correction Mode (ECM)
Using the MultiPASS L60’s Error Correction Mode (ECM) reduces transmission
errors when sending faxes to or receiving faxes from other fax machines that also
have ECM capability.
Automatic switching between fax and voice calls
The MultiPASS L60 can automatically distinguish between fax calls and normal
telephone calls, so that you can receive both through a single phone line.
Answering machine connection
You can connect an answering machine to the MultiPASS L60 to let it receive
telephone messages and faxes while you are away from your desk.
Transmission speed
The MultiPASS L60 uses G3 data encoding methods that increase transmission
speed to approximately 6 seconds* per page.
Memory sending/receiving
The MultiPASS L60 can store up to 90* fax pages (either received or to be sent)
in its built-in memory, and can receive faxes while printing or even when your PC
is turned off.
Reduced-size printing
The MultiPASS L60 automatically scales received faxes to fit the size of the paper
loaded in the multi-purpose tray. So if your client is sending you a fax on paper
larger than an A4-size page and you have A4-size paper in the multi-purpose
tray, the fax will be scaled down and printed on A4-size paper.
Automatic dialling and broadcasting
To make faxing even easier, the MultiPASS L60 provides several automatic
dialling methods: coded speed dialling, one-touch speed dialling, and group
dialling. The MultiPASS L60 also enables you to broadcast faxes or send faxes at
a preset time to as many as 117 locations at once.
* Based on Canon FAX Standard Chart No.1, standard mode
1-4 Chapter 1Introducing the MultiPASS L60
Point-and-click dialling
The MultiPASS Desktop Manager enables you to select a fax number and dial
directly from your PC’s screen with a simple click of the mouse.
Flexible document feeding
The MultiPASS L60 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 A4- or letter-size pages, or 10 legal-size pages at a time), to a single
photo or business card.
Printer Features
Excellent print quality and speed
The MultiPASS L60 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 MultiPASS L60 contains both the toner and the
drum, making installation and replacement simple and clean.
Convenient paper handling
The MultiPASS L60 multi-purpose tray holds up to 100 sheets* of plain A4,
letter, or legal size paper; 7 envelopes; 1 transparency; or labels (up to 10 mm
stack height).
