Rings to Answer1 to 6 (default is 4)The number of times that your phone
will ring before the fax picks up the call.
If you use a dedicated phone line for your
printer, set the Rings to Answer to any
setting. If the printer shares the phone
line with an answering machine, set the
Rings to Answer to a higher number (5
or 6) than the rings to answer for the
answering machine (typically 4 rings).
This allows the answering machine to
pick up phone calls. The printer will
monitor the line after the answering
machine picks up, and, if set to Auto

receive it.

Dialing ModeTone (default) / Pulse Determines how the printer dials a fax
number.
Tone dialing (the more common
method) uses tones to dial a phone
number. It is faster and more reliable
than pulse dialing, which uses a series of
pulses to dial a phone number.
Traditionally, pulse dialing was used by
rotary phones; tone dialing is used by
touch-tone phones.
Error CorrectionOn (default) / Off Error correction is applied only when
sending black-and-white faxes. It
reduces the loss of data, which can occur
on poor phone lines.
Error correction increases the send time
on poor phone lines, but the
transmission is much more reliable.
(Error correction does not apply to faxes
being received.)
Setting the answer mode (auto answer or manual)
The default setting is for Auto Answer to be on. When Auto Answer is on, the
printer picks up all incoming faxes automatically. The green Auto Answer LED is lit
when Auto Answer is on.
To answer calls manually, turn off Auto Answer by pressing the Auto Answer button
so that the green LED is off. (
See “Receiving a fax manually” on page 52.)

Limitations
This warranty does not cover circumstances beyond Kodak’s control. This warranty
