1.2What Does the Energy Star® Mean?
Photocopiers with the Energy Star® and which are not used for a long time
switch to a state with low power consumption or switch off. This function
reduces annual electricity costs by up to 60%.
When copying a t high spee ds, th e opera ting s ta te auto matic ally swi tches
to double-sided copying. This reduces not only the costs for photocopy
paper but also the amount of paper produced.
Did you know that the pr odu ction o f one piec e of pape r requires 10 time s
as much energy as the production of a photocopied piece of paper?
The use of less paper also has a direct influence on the cost-effective
power consumption.
This photocopier meets the energy efficiency criteria of Energy Star

1.4How Does a Fax Machine Work?
A fax machine can be connected to a normal telephone system without
taking any special precautions. The fax machine operates similarly to a
telephone.
The way a fax machine works is qui te simple : Documents whic h are to be
transmitted are first scanned. The fax machine does not recognise the
individual letters but reads the picture , dot by dot. That is why yo u can not
only transmit texts but also pictures and photos.The information is then
written to a digital format (in other words, to black and white dots),
compressed so that the fax machine can then send it quickly over the
telephone line to another fax machine.
When you are "cal led" b y a fax mach ine, y our tele phone ring s as normal.
Therefore you ca nnot re cogni se wh ether a n inc oming call i s from a f ax or
a person before picking up the receiver.
At the beginning of a fa x transmission yo u wil l h ear high-pitched soun ds .
Those sounds are so called "hand shaking" and activate the
"conversation" be tween the trans mitti ng and rece iving fax mach ine , as is
the case with people who introduce themselves at the beginning of a
phone call. In the introductory sequence the technical features of both
machines are matched to make sure the transmission and the reception
are conducted to a high standard.
With your Di250f/Di350f you do not necessarily need to listen to this
"conversation". How to program th e machine accordin gly will be ex plained
later in this manual. Furthermore you will also find information about the
various settings w hich are use d during insta llation or at a later stage. Mo st
of the features of the fax machine work independently, so that you can
program the settings you need and bypass all others.
By the way, the word "fax" originates from the Latin word "facere" (to
make) and "simile" (similar), describing the process of making a copy
which is similar to the orig inal. F ax ma chines are nowa days also re ferred
to as facsimile machines or remote copiers.
Now, enjoy "communicating".

Introduction
Ozone release
During printing, a small quantity of ozone is released which is nonhazardous. You should however ensure that the room in which the fax
machine is being used is adequately ventilated. In particular, if the
machine is printing continuously over a long period without a break.

2.1Location
Please take into consideration the following recommendations.
G Avoid direct exposure to sunlight.
G Avoid humid or dusty locations.
G Install the machine on an even, non-vibrating surface.
G Keep the machine away from magnetic fields.
(TV sets, radio).
G Avoid installation close to air conditioning systems and heate rs.
G The machine should be accessible from all sides.
G Ensure no liquids can enter the machine.
G Keep all covers closed when the machine is in standby, as this will
prevent the transmission or receipt of documents. If the cover is
opened during transmission or reception, the connection will be
interrupted.
G Avoid extreme fluctuations in temperature as this could lead to
humidity inside the machine. This in turn could lead to incorrect
document scanning and printing.
G Ensure there is enough space (approx. 40 cm clearance around the
machine), for optimum operation and easy access.

Environment
The optimum environmental conditions for your copier are :
G Temperatures between 10°C and 32°C
(with a max. fluctuation of 10°C per hour)
G Humidity level between 15% and 85%
(with a max. fluctuation of 20% per hour).
