The lifetime of the Canon genuine starter toner cartridge which
comes with the machine is approximately 2,500 pages, the
Canon genuine replacement toner cartridge is approximately
5,000 pages. The page counts are on the basis of “ISO/ IEC
19752”* when printing A4 size paper with the default print
density setting. The level of toner consumption varies
depending on the type of documents printed. If your average
document contains a lot of graphics, tables, or charts, the life of
the toner cartridge will be shorter as they consume more toner.
When you are replacing a toner cartridge, be sure to use a toner
cartridge designed for this product. To purchase the Canon
genuine replacement toner cartridge, contact your local Canon
dealer or Canon Customer Care Center (U.S.A.:1-800-828-4040,
Canada:1-800-652-2666).

* “ISO/IEC 19752” is the global standard related to “Method for

the determination of toner cartridge yield for monochromatic
electrophotographic printers and multi-function devices that
may contain printer components” issued by ISO (International
Organization for Standardization).

Maintaining the Toner Cartridge

■

Keep the toner cartridge away from computer screens,

●

disk drives, and floppy disks. The magnet inside the toner
cartridge may harm these items.

Avoid locations subject to high temperature, high humidity,

●

or rapid changes in temperature.

Do not expose the toner cartridge to direct sunlight or bright

●

light for more than five minutes.

Store the toner cartridge in its protective bag. Do not open

●

the bag until you are ready to install the toner cartridge in
the machine.

Save the toner cartridge’s protective bag in case you need to

●

repack and transport the toner cartridge at a later date.

Do not store the toner cartridge in a salty atmosphere or

●

where there are corrosive gases such as from aerosol sprays.

Do not remove the toner cartridge from the machine

●

unnecessarily.

Do not open the drum protective shutter on the toner

●

cartridge. Print quality may deteriorate if the drum surface is
exposed to light or is damaged.

Always hold the toner cartridge by its handle to avoid

●

touching the drum protective shutter.

Do not stand the toner cartridge on end, and do not turn it

●

upside down. If toner becomes caked in the toner cartridge,

register fax/telephone numbers to the Address Book. Once you
have registered fax/telephone numbers using these functions,
you can specify the fax/telephone numbers by simply pressing
one or a combination of keys:

Using One-Touch Speed Dialing Key (p. 4-13)

●

You can specify fax/telephone numbers by pressing one-touch
speed dialing keys. You can register up to 23 one-touch speed
dialing keys, including group dialing.

Using Coded Speed Dialing (p. 4-13)

●

You can specify fax/telephone numbers by pressing [Coded Dial]
followed by two-digit code. You can register up to 100 coded speed
dialing codes, including group dialing.

Using Group Dialing (p. 4-13)

●

You can specify groups of fax/telephone numbers registered in one­touch speed dialing keys and/or coded speed dialing codes. You
can register up to 122 groups.

Using Address Book Key (p. 4-14)

●

You can specify fax/telephone numbers by pressing [Address Book]
and searching a fax/telephone number from Address Book.

Recipients stored in the Address Book can be exported to your computer

–

as a file, which can be imported into the machine. For information on
exporting the Address Book, see Chapter 7, “Remote UI (MF6595cx/
MF6595/MF6590/MF6540 Only).”
For easy reference, print out the list of recipients registered in one-

–

touch speed dialing keys or coded speed dialing codes. (See “REPORT

Using Address Book Key

■

Address book dialing enables you to search for a particular recipient
registered in the machine. This is useful when you forget which one­touch speed dialing key or coded speed dialing code the recipient
you want is registered under.

1. Set documents.

Place the first page on the platen glass if you are not using the ADF.

2. Press [FAX].

If you want to adjust the image quality and density, see “Scan
Settings,” on p. 4-5.

3. Press [Address Book].

If no recipient is registered for speed dialing, <NOT REGISTERED> is
displayed.

4. Use a numeric key to enter the first letter of the

recipient’s name.

For example, if you want to search for a name that starts with the

–

letter “H,” press [4] (GHI) once or twice.
Entries starting with the letter you entered are displayed if any

–

entries are registered.
Press [＊] to switch between input modes:

–

[:A]: Letter mode
[:1]: Number mode

Ex.

ADDR E S S BOOK :A
CANON

5. Press [ ] or [ ] to search for the recipient’s

name.

–

Pressing [ ] displays the names of other recipients in
alphabetical order.

–

Pressing [

] displays them in reverse alphabetical order.

6. When the recipient’s name is displayed, press

[OK].

7. Press [Start] to dial the number.

When you set the documents on the platen glass, Press [ ] or [ ]
to select the document size, then press [Start] for each document.
When scanning is complete, press [OK] to start dialing.

Use manual sending when you want to talk to the recipient
before sending a document, or if the recipient does not have a
fax machine that can receive automatically.

You cannot use the platen glass for manual sending.

–

You cannot use group dialing for manual sending.

–

1. Connect an external telephone to the machine if

you want to talk to the recipient before sending
a document.

For details on how to connect an external telephone to the machine,
see “Before FAX Setting,” in the Starter Guide.

2. Load the document in the ADF.

4. Press [ Hook] or pick up the handset of your

external telephone.

5. Dial the recipient’s fax/telephone number.

Make sure to confirm the dial tone before entering a fax/telephone
number. If you enter the number before the dial tone can be heard,
the call may not connect, or the wrong number may be dialed.

6. Talk through the handset to the recipient.

If you press [Hook] in step 4, you can pick up the handset when you
hear the recipient’s voice.
If you hear a high-pitched signal instead of the recipient’s voice, go
to step 8.

7. Ask the recipient to set their fax machine to

receive faxes.

8. When you hear a high-pitched signal, press

[Start], then hang up the handset.

With direct sending, the machine sends the document on
the ADF as it scans one page, without storing all pages into
memory at once. You can send a document ahead of other
documents stored in memory.

You cannot use group dialing for direct sending.

–

With direct sending, the machine scans one page into memory at once
and sends it right away.
Therefore, when <MEMORY FULL> is displayed, even if you have selected
direct sending, wait until there is enough space in memory to scan one
page, or delete the documents in memory, and try again. (See “Checking
and Deleting Sending/Receiving Documents Stored in Memory,” on
p. 4-31.)
