Super G3 is a phrase used to describe the new generation of fax machines that
use ITU-T V.34 standard 33.6 Kbps* modems. Super G3 High Speed Fax
machines allow transmission time of approximately 3 seconds* per page which
results in reduced telephone line charges.

* Approximately 3 seconds per page fax transmission time based on ITU-T No. 1 Chart (Standard

Mode) at 33.6 Kbps modem speed. The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) currently
supports 28.8 Kbps modem speeds or lower, depending on telephone line conditions.

Exif Print

This machine supports Exif 2.2 (also called “Exif Print”).
Exif Print is a standard for enhancing the communication between digital cameras and printers.
By connecting to an Exif Print-compliant digital camera, the camera’s image data at the time of
shooting is used and optimized, yielding extremely high quality prints.

X General Paper Guidelines

Paper Types You Cannot Use

Do not use:

–Folded, creased, curled, or wrinkled paper
–Envelopes with double flaps, or with pressure seals
–Moist paper
–Paper with holes (e.g. punched holes)
–Very thin paper (less than 17 lb. or 64 g/m
–Very thick paper (more than 28 lb. or 105 g/m
–Postcards with photographs or stickers adhered to them
–Envelopes made with embossed or treated surfaces

Handling Paper

• Hold the paper as closely as possible to its edges and try not to touch the print surface. Print
quality will deteriorate if the print surface is damaged or becomes dirty.

• Do not touch the print surface until the ink has dried.

• Some paper may curl and the print surface may smudge if you have used a large amount of ink
for printing. If this occurs, move the paper thickness lever to the right (see page 26). Paper that
tends to curl is not recommended for printing photographs or graphics. Use it for printing mainly
text.

• If the paper is curled, uncurl it before printing.

• Place the paper back into its packet when not using it, and store out of direct sunlight in a place
where the temperature and humidity are low.
