1.2What does the Energy Star® mean ?
Photocopiers with theEnergy Star®switch to a state with low power
consumptionorswitch off if notused for a long time.This functionmeans
that annual power costs can be reduced by up to 60%.
When copyingat high speeds, theoperating stateautomatically switches
to double-sided copying.This means that both the costs for photocopy
paper and the amount of paperproduced for use is reduced.
Did youknow that the production ofa piece of paperrequires 10 timesas
much energy as the production of a photocopy?
The use of less paper also has a direct influence on the cost-effective
power consumption.
This photocopier meets theenergy efficiency criterion ofthe Energy

Introduction
1.5How Does a Fax Machine W ork?
A fax machine can be connected to a normal telephonesystemwithout
taking any special precautions, justlikea normal telephone set. The
function of a fax machine is quite similarto thatofa telephone.
The way a fax machine works is simple: Documents that are to be
transmitted are at first scanned.Themachine doesnot recognise the
letters but reads the picture, dotby dot,and marks each dot as black or
white. That is why you can not only transmittexts but also pictures and
photos. The informationisthendigitised and compressed so that thefax
machine can send it quickly over the telephone line to another fax
machine which reverses the process,reading and marking each dot as
black or white on a sheet of paper.
When youare"called" by a faxmachine, your telephonerings asnormal.
Therefore you cannot knowwhether your are receiving a fax call or a
telephone call before picking upthereceiver.
At the beginning of a fax transmission you will hear shrill sounds. Those
sounds are the so called "hand shaking" and functionas an introduction
sequence before the actual transmission, just as interlocutors- often introduce themselves at the beginning of a telephone call. In the
introductory sequencethe technical features of both machines are
matched to makesure the transmissionand the reception are conducted
to a high standard.
With your Di151f you do not need to listen to the introductory sequence.
How to program the machine accordingly will be explained later in this
manual. Furthermoreyou will also find information aboutthe settings that
come with the machine, that have to be made when installing, or the
settings that canbem ade at a later stage. Most ofthefeatures of the fax
machine work independently, so that you can program onlythe settings
you need for the moment and ignoreallothers.
By theway, the word"fax" is acombination oftheLatin "facere"(to make)
and "simile" (similar) describing the process of making a copy which is
similar to the original. This artificial word "fax" has nowadays become
widelyacceptedineveryday language,replacing theolder termfacsimile.
A copy istherefore to be made"similar" to theoriginal. Faxmachines are
also called facsimile machines.
Now, enjoy your new fax machine.
