Installation Hints
· Install your fax machine in a dust-free location away from
direct sunlight.
· Do not plug your fax machine into a power source shared
by equipment that produces electrical noise (e.g., air
conditioners).
· Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service
personnel.
· The LINE terminal connects your fax machine to a
standard telephone line. To avoid damage to your
telephone system or to the fax machine, do not plug your
fax machine into anything other than a standard RJ-11C
jack.
· Your fax machine is intended to be grounded electrically
and is equipped with a three-wire grounded power cord.
For your safety, do not attempt to defeat your power cord’s
grounding plug.
· The electrical outlet and phone jack should be installed
near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
· The two TEL terminals on the back of the fax machine are
only suitable for 2–wire devices. Not all standard
telephones will respond to incoming calls when
connected to an extension jack.
· This equipment may not necessarily provide for the
effective hand-over of a call from a telephone connected
to the same line.
· The operation of this equipment on the same line as
telephone or other equipment with audible warning
devices (such as call waiting) or automatic ring detectors
may cause false tripping of the ring detector.
User’s Guide: English33
|
Operation and Maintenance
· Use a dry cloth to clean the control panel and the main
body of the unit.
· Aside from the instructions specifically mentioned in this
document, your fax machine is not user serviceable. Do
not attempt to service the machine or lubricate moving
parts by yourself.
· Pull out the AC plug before trying to remove any objects
that may have fallen into the machine.
· Immediately disconnect the fax machine if it becomes
physically damaged and arrange for its repair or disposal.
· When relocating your fax machine, always disconnect the
telephone line before disconnecting the power cord, then
reconnect the power cord first.
· This fax machine is not intended to be used in parallel
with any other telephone devices.
Toner Cartridge and Image Drum Handling
· Leave unused toner cartridges and image drums in their
packages until needed. When replacing a toner cartridge
or image drum, re-use the packaging to dispose of the old
toner cartridge or image drum.
· Do not expose these components to light for more than
five minutes. Never expose the green drum (inside the
image drum unit) to direct sunlight.
· Always hold the image drum by the ends—never by the
middle. Never touch the green drum inside the image
drum unit.
· Exercise care when removing the toner cartridge. Do not
let it touch your clothing or porous materials. The toner
powder causes permanent stains.
· Small amounts of toner spilled on skin or clothing can be
readily removed with soap and cold water. Using warm
water will make removing the stain much more difficult.
OKIFAX 5750/595034
|
Emergency First Aid
· IF TONER IS SWALLOWED: Dilute by giving two
glasses of water and induce vomiting by administering
Syrup of Ipecac (follow manufacturer’s instructions), Seek
medical attention. Never attempt to induce vomiting or
give anything by mouth to a person who is unconscious.
· IF TONER IS INHALED: Take person to an open area for
fresh air. Seek medical attention.
· IF TONER GETS IN THE EYES: Flush eyes with large
quantities of cool water for 15 minutes, keeping eyelids
open with fingers. Seek medical attention.

machine tones, press the Start key to receive the fax. If you
do not answer the phone and someone tries to send you a fax
message, your machine will not accept it.
·Memory Reception Mode [MEM]
·Forwarding Mode [FWD]
·PC Fax Mode [PC]
Auto Receive Mode [FAX]
Your machine is connected to a telephone line reserved only
for fax communication.
This is the factory setting.
Your machine assumes all incoming calls are fax messages
and automatically receives all incoming fax messages.
Manual Receive Mode [TEL]
You use the same line for both fax and telephone calls and
the majority of your incoming calls are telephone calls.
To use this feature, you must have an external, optional
handset or telephone connected to your fax machine.
OKIFAX 5750/595054
|
Telephone/Fax Mode [T/F]
Incoming calls are a mix of fax and telephone calls.
To use this feature, you must have an external, optional
handset or telephone connected to your fax machine.
The display will show Lift Handset.
In this mode, your machine detects whether the incoming call
is a fax or a voice call. When the call is from another fax
machine, your machine switches to fax mode and receives the
message. When the call is a voice call, your machine rings
like a telephone. If you do not answer, it switches back to fax
mode to allow the calling party to manually send a fax.
Telephone Answering Device Mode [TAD]
You have an external, optional answering machine
connected to your fax machine.
In this mode, your machine detects whether an incoming call
is a fax or voice call. If it is a fax call, your machine receives
the fax. If it is a voice call, your machine rings, then your
answering machine activates. If you set the Remote Receive
user function, the caller can send a fax at any time during or
after the recorded message by using their keypad to enter the
remote receive number you have programmed. This number
activates fax reception. Add something like this to your
answering machine message: “To send a fax now, press XX
[the programmed number].”
See “Setting Basic Features, Dial and Incoming Call
Parameter Settings, Incoming Call Parameters.”
Forwarding Mode [FWD]
All fax communications are received into memory, then
forwarded to another telephone number.
When set to this mode, the machine receives all fax
communications into memory, and then automatically sends
the messages to the telephone number programmed into the
Call Forwarding function. This function displays only when
a forwarding number has been programmed.
PC Fax Mode [PC]
This mode is available only if an optional MFP Kit is
!
installed.
Memory Reception Mode [MEM]
Received data is not printed but is stored into memory, even
if there is fax paper on which to print.
Use the Print Operation function to print out data stored in
memory during Memory Reception mode. You can set a
password (USER PROGRAMMING under MEM.
PASSWORD PRG) to disable the Memory Reception mode.
Incoming faxes are stored on you computer’s hard disk
instead of printing immediately.
This mode is only available when the machine is connected
to a personal computer via optional multifunction product
(MFP) software. When activated, the machine forwards the
call directly to the computer. This lets you work with faxes
on your computer using the software included with the MFP
option.

Basic Faxing
Overview
Document Guidelines
General
· Try to use good quality documents for your fax
transmission. Documents that work best are typed or
written with a black felt-tip pen on white (or light) paper.
· Do not send documents that are not rectangular.
· Never use documents that have wet or sticky surfaces,
wrinkles, staples, or paper clips.
· Your machine can transmit documents with normal wear
(staple holes, letter folds and minor corner folds).
· If you are not sure how a document will fax, first make a
copy on your machine. Load the document (face down)
and press the Copy.
· If your documents are heavily bent, creased or torn, make
a copy on a photocopier and send the copy instead.

Delayed Fax vs. Delayed Batch
A delayed fax transmission is one fax sent to one location,
group, or broadcast, at a time and date specified by you.
A delayed batch transmission is a little more complicated.
In a delayed batch transmission, faxes to a single location are
not sent until a specified time. The faxes are sent at the same
time every day.
Imagine that your fax machine is located in the main office,
and you send faxes to your sales force. Your machine can be
programmed to hold all documents being sent to a fax
number (salesperson) until a time you specify. When it is the
specified time, all held documents are sent to the number.
The numbers programmed into One-Touch Keys 31 through
40 are used for delayed batch transmissions.
Delayed Batch Transmissions can ONLY use One Touch
!
Keys 31 through 40.

Delayed Batch Transmission
In a delayed batch transmission, all faxes to a single location
are held until a specified time. The specified time is a daily
event (the faxes are sent at the same time every day).
Imagine that your fax machine is located in the main office,
and you send faxes to your sales force. Your machine can be
programmed to hold all documents being sent to a fax
number (salesperson) until a time and date you specify.
When it is the specified time, all held documents are sent to
the number.
Locations must be programmed into Speed Dial (One-Touch)
numbers 31-40.
To perform a delayed batch transmission, you must
· program the delayed batch destination number (OneTouch numbers 31-40).
· set the batch TX time function
· send a fax as part of a delayed batch transmission
Program the Delayed Batch Destination Number
The destination number of the location receiving the
Delayed Batch Transmission (where you are sending to) must
be assigned to a One-Touch Speed Dial.
You must use one of the One-Touch Keys 31 through 40.
Refer to “Programming Speed Dial Numbers.”

Relay Faxing
What is an example of Relay Faxing? Imagine that you need
to send a fax to a number of locations in another area code.
With Relay Faxing, you (the relay initiating station) send one
fax (transmission) long distance to another machine (the
relay key station [hub]). The relay key station (hub) then
sends the fax to all of the other machines/locations in the
area code, at local rates.
Relay faxing allows one machine to send a document to
another machine, which then forwards the document to a
number of other locations. Two different machines are
involved in transmitting a relay fax: the relay initiating
station and the relay key station (hub).
Your machine can function as an initiating station and a relay
key station (hub).
The relay key station (hub) can send a confirmation report to
the relay initiating station when the relay fax session is
complete. This confirmation report is called the Relay
Broadcast Report.
The relay initiating station and the relay key station
!
(hub) must coordinate efforts before a relay fax can be
sent.
Relay Faxing is different from group faxing. In Group
!
Faxing, a fax is sent to a preprogrammed group of
locations directly from the fax machine.
At this writing, the OKIFAX 2600 and the OKIFAX
!
5750/5950 Series are the only OKIFAX machines that
can function as relay key stations (hubs).
If you cannot access Relay Fax features, contact your
!
service dealer. A Service Function setting (Technical
Function 36) may require adjustment.
All machines involved in a Relay Fax should be set to
!
Auto Receive mode. See “Setting Basic Features,
Setting the Answering Mode.”
