Introduction

Miscellaneous

• Do not rest your weight on the control panel, as a malfunction could result.

• Normal international communications may at times not be possible
depending on line conditions.

• If tap or well water is used in a humidifier, impurities in the water are
discharged into the air and may be deposited inside the printer, resulting in
poor image quality. It is recommended that pure water that does not contain
any impurities be used in the humidifier.

• Ni-MH (Nickel Metal Hydride) Batteries are installed inside machine as
back up memory batteries. Please dispose according to local, state and
federal regulations.

The Facsimile has been approved in accordance with Council Decision 1999/5/EC for pan­European single terminal connection to the public switched telephone network (PSTN).
However, due to differences between the individual PSTNs provided in different countries,
the approval does not, of itself, give an unconditional assurance of successful operation on
every PSTN network terminal point.
In the event of problems, you should contact your equipment supplier in the first instance.

NOTE
The manufacturer should ensure that the vender and user of equipment is clearly informed
of the above information by means of packaging and/or user manuals or other forms of user
instructions.

This product is approved for DTMF dialing only. When directly connected to the public
switched telephone network (PSTN mode) pulse dialing can not be used.
