After removing the contents, store the packaging materials in case
you ever need to transport your fax machine.
1-1
PriorityFax 2000 Manual
WARNING
Lift the fax machine by its body, never by the telephone
handset or cradle.
Choosing a Place for
the Fax Machine
When you select a location for your fax machine, keep the
following in mind:
0
Place the fax machine on a flat, stable surface
Cl
Select a vibration-free area
Cl
Locate the unit near a telephone wall jack and a standard
grounded outlet.
WARNING
Q
Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight,
excessive heat, moisture, or dust.
Avoid using electrical outlets controlled by wall
switches or automatic timers. Disruption of power can
wipe out information in the unit’s memory.
Avoid using outlets on the same circuit with large
motors or other appliances that might disturb the
power supply.
Keep the unit away from potential sources of
interference, such as loudspeakers or the base units of
cordless telephones.
Assembling the Fax
Machine

To assemble the fax machine, you need only do the following:
Cl
Connect the handset
Cl
Plug in the line cord
Cl
Install the output tray and paper rest
0
Attach the Quick Reference sticker.
Setting Up the PriorityFax
Connecting the Handset
0
0
0
To connect the handset to the telephone cradle, follow these steps:
Remove the protective plastic cover from the curled handset cord.
Locate the insert opening on the left side of the telephone cradle
and plug in one end of the handset cord.
Plug the other end of the cord into the handset, as shown below.
0
Connecting the Fax
Machine to the
Telephone Line
Installing a single-line
telephone connection
Push firmly to be sure both ends of the cord are locked in place.
There are two types of connections for installing your fax machine:
single-line and multi-line.
A single-line connection is the preferred solution for installing the
fax machine. To hook up to a single-line connection, perform the
following steps.
1-3
PriorityFax 2000 Manual
0
Plug one end of the telephone line cord (the flat cord) into the back
of the fax machine, as shown below.
Plug the other end into your modular telephone wall jack (USOC
0
RJllC). Make sure both ends of the cord click securely into place.
Note
If you have the older 4-prong telephone wall jack, you
must use a modular 4-prong adapter WSOC RJA1X). Plug
the adapter into the wall jack and then plug the telephone
cord into the adapter, as shown in the illustration below.
1-4
Setting Up the PriorityFax
Installing a multi-line
telephone connection
Most offices have a central phone system. Although in many
cases it is relatively easy to connect the fax machine to this
system, we suggest that you contact the company that
installed your organization’s telephone system and ask them
to connect the fax machine for you.
It is preferable to have a separate line to the fax machine.
This way, you can leave the unit in Automatic Answer mode
24 hours a day and derive full benefit from the fax machine’s
unattended operations capabilities.
If the fax machine is connected to a multi-line system, ask
your installer to connect the fax machine to the last line on
the system. This prevents the fax machine from being
activated each time a telephone call comes into your office.
WARNING
If you install the PriorityFax and a separate
telephone on the same telephone line, do not pick
up the telephone handset when you are receiving a
fax. This can cause the received document to
contain distorted characters.
Installing the Output
Tray and Paper Rest
There are two types of paper holders for the PriorityFax: the
output tray for holding documents sent to or copied by you,
and the paper rest for holding documents you have just sent
to others.
1-5
PriorityFax 2000 Manual
Installing the output tray
Horizontal
Base only
Shown below are the three ways you can install the output tray,
depending upon your workspace. The vertical and base only
installations use the least desk space, but the horizontal installation
minimizes curling of incoming documents.
Vertical
To install the output tray base (and the output tray if desired),
follow these steps:
Place the output tray base on the table in front of you. Then insert
0
the wire output tray paper guide into the holes on either side of
the output tray base as shown below.
Place the fax machine at the edge of the table and locate the two
0
notches on the front underside of the fax machine.
1-6
Setting Up the PriorityFax
Holding the output tray base level, press the tabs extending from
the output tray base into the notches on the front of the fax
machine, as shown in the following illustration.
If you have chosen the base only installation, skip the next
two steps.
Place the output tray in front of you and insert each of the
two wire paper holders into the holes at the edge of the
output tray, as shown below.
1-7
PriorityFax 2000 Manual
For the horizontal installation, attach the output tray to the output
tray base using the rear slots. For the vertical installation, attach
the tray to the base using the front holes. See the illustration below.
To attach the output tray in a horizontal position, insert the pegs
on both sides of the output tray into the rear slots on the output
tray base. Then push the output tray as far back as it will go.
To attach the tray in a vertical position, insert the pegs on the
output tray into the front holes on the output tray base. Then allow
the tray to hang over the edge of the fax machine operating surface
to catch your incoming or copied documents.
1-8
Setting Up the PriorityFax
Installing the paper
rest

0
The smaller of the paper holders, the paper rest, is used to hold
documents that you have just faxed to others. To install the paper
rest, follow these steps:
Locate the grooves at the back of the fax machine, right below the
back control panel.
Holding the paper rest at about a 45o angle to the fax machine,
press the tabs extending from one end of the rest into the grooves,
as shown in the following illustration. If you wish, you can also
install the paper rest wire as shown below. Do not use the paper
rest wire for legal size documents.

Plugging in the
Fax Machine
Attach the Quick Reference sticker as follows:
Remove the backing from the adhesive side of the sticker.
Place the sticker in the blank space on the far left of the top control
panel.
The fax machine can be plugged into any standard power outlet.
Make sure that the outlet is grounded and that it is not on the same
line as large appliances or office machines that tend to draw a lot
of power in a very short period of time, such as refrigerators and
copiers. The fax machine power requirements can be found in
Technical Specifications, Chapter 7.
Plug the power cord into a properly grounded electrical outlet.
You do not need to turn the fax machine on or off. The LCD (liquid
crystal display) is on the top control panel to the right of the
keypad. When you plug in the fax machine, the following display
appears on the LCD:
Inserting the
Recording Paper

Insert Document
The LCD lets you know when to replace the paper roll. When
approximately 4 inches (10 cm) of paper is left, the ADD PAPER
message appears on the LCD. When you see this message, remove
the old roll and follow the instructions above to insert the new roll.
A quick test of your PriorityFax is the convenience copy function.
You can copy any document that is no more than 8.5 inches wide.
Just follow the instructions below.
Note
The fax machine cannot read anything at the very edge of
a document. Make sure to leave a margin of at least 0.15
inches (3.8mm) on the top, bottom, and sides of any
document you copy or send.
Use copies duplicated by this machine as temporary copies only. If
it is necessary to store a copy for a long time, use a copy machine
to reproduce the original document.
Turn the document face down with the top of the document toward
the feeder. Insert the document into the feeder as shown in the
illustration below. If the document is less than 8.5 inches wide,
adjust the document guide on the right to match the width of the
paper. The paper is drawn slightly into the fax machine.
1-13
PriorityFax 2000 Manual
The ready display appears:
Press START. The fax machine draws the original document
through the machine, the following display appears, and the copy
begins to emerge from the slot at the front of the unit. Do not pull
on the paper while copying. You may ruin the copied image.
Note
You can select the quality of the documents produced by
the PriorityFax by changing the resolution mode to suit
the type of documents you copy or send. When you use
the copy function, two modes are available; photo (for
photographs), and fine (for all other documents). Fine is
the factory setting. See Chapter 4 for instructions on
changing the resolution mode.
l-14
Once copying is complete, the automatic cutter cuts the page off
and the unit beeps. Now the copy can be removed from the output
tray. The date and time display appears on the LCD.
2 Using the PriorityFax
