Sending a document

Handsfree dialling

You can dial numbers in three different ways. Which way you use will depend on which function you are performing and your personal preferences.
Load the document as described in the previous section and dial using one of the following methods:
If the called number is busy at the first attempt, your fax machine will try to dial the number several more times (the actual number of redial attempts depends on local regulations).

Manual dialling

1. Lift the handset.
2. Dial the number required using the numeric keypad, one
touch keys or SEARCH key (see ‘Auto dialling Memory Numbers’ section).
3. When the called party answers and you hear the tone, press
the START/COPY key to begin transmission to the remote fax machine, then replace the handset.
4. When transmission is complete the fax machine will beep once, automatically disconnect and return to standby.
You may dial numbers without lifting the handset in handsfree mode.
1. Press HOOK. You will hear the dialling tone on the internal
speaker.
To adjust speaker volume, use the Scroll keys ( ). The volume adjustment has four levels.
2. Dial the number required using the numeric keypad, one
touch keys or SEARCH key (see ‘Auto dialling Memory Numbers’ section).
3. Press START/COPY to begin transmission.
4. When transmission is complete the fax machine will beep once, automatically disconnect and return to standby.

On-hook dialling

You may dial numbers without lifting the handset.
1. Dial the number required using the numeric keypad, one touch keys or SEARCH key (see ‘Auto dialling Memory Numbers’ section).
2. Press START/COPY to begin transmission.
20
OKIFAX 610/660
3. When transmission is complete the fax machine will beep once, automatically disconnect and return to standby.
Transmission can be halted at any time by pressing STOP. In this case the document will stop immediately and the call will be terminated. A further press of the STOP key will eject the document.

Message confirmation

Message confirmation details appear briefly on the LCD immediately after transmission, or you can check the result of your fax transmission on your LCD screen by navigating to PRINT OUTS - CONFIRM TX in the Function Menu (See ‘Function Menu Settings’ section) or pressing FUNCTION + 0 for quick access to the PRINT OUTS options.
If you wish, you can set a Message Confirmation report to print out after every transmission (see ‘Message Confirmation Report’ in the ‘Setting User Preferences’ section.)

Receiving a document

Y our fax machine has four answering modes, which are selected by repeatedly pressing the AUTO key.

TEL mode

This is a manual receiving mode. Your fax machine will not answer incoming calls automatically, but will emit a ringing sound and wait for you to answer . Lift the handset, press the ST ART/COPY key and then hang up to begin reception. This is most useful when you are in attendance and use the same telephone line for incoming voice and fax calls.
When set to TEL mode, if a call is not answered within 20 rings the OKIF AX 660 will automatically switch to TAD/ F AX mode, OGM1 will be played (see ‘Using the internal answer machine’ section) and the caller will be able to leave a message.

Last number redial

Your machine will automatically redial a busy number several times (the number of redial attempts depends on local regulations), but if you wish to redial manually, simply load your document and press the REDIAL key.
User’s Guide

FAX mode

This is an automatic answering mode. Your fax machine will automatically answer incoming calls after a certain number of rings (the number can be changed under RING RESPONSE in the Function Menu - see ‘Setting User Preferences’ section for details). In this mode your machine will send an audible tone to the caller, designed to be detected by a remote fax machine.
21
Incoming fax messages are received, and the call is terminated automatically on completion. This mode is most useful when you have a dedicated fax line.

TEL/FAX mode

This is an automatic answering mode. If the incoming call is a voice call, your fax machine will emit a ringing sound to attract your attention.
If you do not answer the call within a set time (see ‘TEL/FAX Timer’ in the ‘Setting User Preferences’ section) your machine will automatically switch to fax receiving mode. If there is no calling fax machine the call will be terminated.
With the OKIFAX 660, the TEL/FAX mode can only be used if you have recorded outgoing message 3 (OGM3) (see ‘Using the Answer Machine’ section for details).
After your fax machine answers the call, any additional phones on the same line will not ring.
If the call is from a remote fax machine your machine will automatically switch to fax receiving mode and receive the incoming transmission.
This mode is most useful if you are in attendance and wish to manually answer incoming voice calls and automatically answer incoming fax calls on the same line.
Note that some older fax machines do not send the initial audible tones necessary to enable automatic detection. In this case your fax machine will ring as for a voice call. If you pick up the handset and hear nothing, press START/
COPY to begin reception.
22

T AD/FAX mode

This is an automatic answering mode. The OKIFAX 660 uses built­in digital voice answering technology. With the OKIFAX 610 an external answering machine (not supplied) may be connected to handle incoming voice calls.
This mode is most useful if you are not in attendance and wish to automatically receive incoming voice and fax calls on the same line.

OKIFAX 660

The fax machine will answer incoming calls after a set number of rings (the number can be changed under RING RESPONSE in the Function Menu - see ‘Setting User Preferences’ section for details). Outgoing message 1 (OGM1) will be played to the caller. This message must have been pre-recorded for this function to operate correctly .
OKIFAX 610/660
If the incoming call is a voice call, the message will be recorded for you to hear later.
If the call is from a remote fax machine, the fax message will be received automatically and no attempt will be made to record a voice message.
nothing is heard switch to fax receiving mode and receive the incoming transmission from the older machine (see ‘Silence Detection’ in the ‘Setting Answer Machine Preferences’ section to change the waiting period).

Reception in memory

OKIFAX 610

A separate answering machine may be connected to take incoming voice messages. In this case the answering machine will answer all incoming calls.
If the incoming call is a voice call, your answering machine can record a message for you to hear later.
If the call is from a remote fax machine, your fax machine will automatically take over and receive the fax message.
If the answering machine fails to answer within the number of rings set under RING RESPONSE in the Function Menu, f or example when the tape is full, your fax machine will answer the call in case the caller wishes to send you a fax message.
Note that some older fax machines do not send the initial audible tones necessary to enable automatic detection. In this case your fax machine can wait for a number of seconds after the outgoing message for the caller to speak, and if
User’s Guide
If your fax machine is not immediately able to print a received document due to an error such as a printer fault, paper jam, no recording paper or if the printer ribbon is exhausted, then the message will be received in memory and will be printed out when the fault is rectified. Your machine’s memory can hold approximately 50 pages depending on the page content.

Reception via second telephone

If you have a second telephone connected to your machine or to the same incoming line, you may pick up an incoming call simply by lifting the handset to talk. Dial ‘1’ then ‘9’ within 30 seconds of answering to activate fax reception mode.
Your telephone must be set to tone dialling for this function.
This function is not available in some countries.
23

T alk request

Copying a document

If during fax transmission (or reception) you wish to call the remote fax operator to the telephone, press RECALL/V. REQUEST.
At the end of the fax exchange, your machine will emit an audible tone if the remote party accepts your request. When you hear this, lift the handset and then press RECALL/V. REQUEST to begin your conversation.
After the conversation, if there are any further messages to be transmitted either party can place documents on the document feeder and press ST ART/COPY to start transmission. The recei ving party must have no documents in the document feeder and simply needs to press ST ART/COPY to be gin reception of the documents.
If your OKIFAX 610/660 is the sending machine and the other party does not respond, your fax machine will instruct their machine to print out your call back number (see ‘Call Back Number’ in the ‘Setting User Preferences’ section for programming instructions) together with a message requesting a telephone call.
If you are sending a fax, you can answer a talk request only after all pages have been transmitted. If you are receiving a fax you can answer a talk request from the remote party after reception of each page.
Your fax machine can also serve as a simple photocopier.
1. Load the document to be copied face down in the automatic document feeder and select your required resolution and contrast, as described earlier in the ‘Loading Documents’ section.
2. Press START/COPY to begin copying. Use the numeric keypad to select the number of copies (maximum 50) you require and press START/COPY again.
The copy process may be halted at any time by pressing
STOP. The document will stop feeding immediately. Press STOP again and the document will be ejected.

2. Dial the required number using the numeric keypad, the
one touch or SEARCH key (with no document on the document feeder).
3. When the called party answers, use either the handset or the built-in microphone and speaker (OKIFAX 660 only) to converse. If you dialled with the handset down, you may pick it up at any time to continue your conversation.
4. To end the call, either replace the handset, or press HOOK or STOP if the handset is already down.
If, during a voice conversation, you wish to exchange a fax message with the other party, place the document on the document feeder and either party may press START/COPY to begin the exchange.

Settings for an external answering machine

OKIFAX 660

An external answer machine can be connected to your OKIF AX 660 to cope with additional messages when the internal message memory is full.
Use the AUTO key to set your machine to TAD/FAX reception mode and switch the External TAD switch on by navigating to EXT . TAD under ANSWERPHONE in the Functions Menu and selecting ON (see ‘Functions Menu Settings’ section or press FUNCTION + 9 for quick access to the ANSWERPHONE functions).
You are advised to set the ring response of your external answer machine to higher (preferrably one ring) than that of your internal answer machine (see ‘Ring Response’ in the ‘Setting user preferences’ section). This will enable your internal answer machine to always answer calls first if enough memory is available.
User’s Guide
27

OKIFAX 610

Once you have installed your external answer machine in line with instructions in the “Connecting an answering machine” section, in TAD/FAX mode your answer machine will always answer calls first and your fax machine will take over the call if it detects that it is a fax call.
If you experience any problems in receiving fax messages when the machine is in TAD/FAX reception mode, try changing the FAX DETECTION setting from FA X DETECTOR A to FAX DETECTOR B as per the instructions in ‘F AX DETECTION (OKIF AX 610)’ in the ‘Setting Answer Machine Preferences’ section.
You are advised to set the ring response of your external answer machine to as low as possible (preferable not higher than 2 rings) and your fax machine’s TAD/FAX ring response one ring higher than that of your external answer machine (see ‘Ring Response’ in the ‘Setting user preferences’ section). This will enable your external answer machine to always answer voice calls first and your fax machine to automatically take over and receive calls from remote fax machines.
If your answer machine does not answer a call because its memory is full or it is not turned on, your fax machine will then start reception for incoming fax calls automatically.
28
OKIFAX 610/660

Using the internal answer machine (OKIF AX 660)

Your OKIFAX 660 has a built-in fully automatic digital voice answering facility. Incoming and outgoing messages are digitised and stored in electronic memory inside the machine. Digital techniques allow more intelligent features than are possible with conventional cassette tape recording.
Your fax machine can record up to a total of 14 minutes of messages (including your outgoing messages and memos).
If power is removed from your machine for more than 8 hours, all outgoing, incoming messages and memos will be lost.

Outgoing messages (OGMs)

The outgoing message (OGM) is the message a caller hears when your fax machine answers a call.
Multi-user example: “Thank you for calling. Please select
the person for whom you wish to leave a message. Dial 01 for Tom, 02 for Dick or 03 for Harry befor e the end of this message, then leave your message after the tone. Alternatively, you may start a fax transmission now, or dial 19 to activate this fax machine.”
OGM2: Played automatically in T AD/F AX mode when memory is full.
For example: “Thank you for calling. I’m sorry but we can’t
recor d your message at this time . Please call again later. If you wish to send us a fax, please start your transmission now, or dial 19 to activate this fax machine.”
OGM3: Played automatically in TEL/FAX mode.
Example: “Please wait a moment for your call to be
answered, or start a fax transmission now, or dial 19 to activate this fax machine.”
You can record three different OGMs to deal with different situations.
OGM1: Played automatically in TAD/FAX mode.
Single user example: “Thank you for calling. Please leave
a message after the tone, or you may start a fax transmission now, or dial 19 to activate this fax machine.”
User’s Guide
If you don’t want callers to hear the OGM 3 message when they call, make sure that your OGM3 message is less than 5 seconds long and it will not be audible (not available in some countries).
If you have not recorded, or have lost any of the OGMs, your answer machine will not operate and your fax machine will automatically go into FAX reception mode.

Recording incoming voice messages

When your fax machine is operating in TAD/FAX mode, incoming calls will be answered automatically with outgoing message 1 (OGM1). At the end of the outgoing message the machine will listen for a voice message. If the caller does not speak within the period of time set in the SILENCE DETECTION option in the Function Menu (the default is 6 seconds), the machine will switch to fax receiving mode, and will transmit audible fax tones to the line.
Callers should be advised to leave messages of at least 5 seconds’ duration.
If the caller is using a telephone equipped with tone dialling (these tones are usually audible when dialling), the following remote control features are available:
The caller may dial 01, 02 or 03 before the end of OGM1 to leave a message in voice box 1, 2 or 3 (default is 1).
The caller may dial ‘1’ then ‘9’ to immediately activate fax receive mode.
This would be useful if the caller had an older fax machine which does not emit audible tones until it ‘hears’ your fax machine. By activating receive mode, your machine will emit fax tones which will enable communication with the caller’s machine.
If the caller uses these remote control codes, each key press will result in an audible beep from your fax machine, so that the caller can tell that the key press has been accepted.
If you wish to interrupt an incoming message and speak to the caller directly, simply pick up the telephone handset on your fax machine.
From a second telephone connected directly to your machine (some countries only), you may also answer by lifting the handset on that telephone.
To interrupt recording from another telephone connected to the same incoming line as your fax machine, lift the handset and dial ‘1’ then ‘0’ (tone dialling telephones only).

Remote access to voice messages

Y our fax machine pro vides full remote access from any telephone, anywhere in the world, equipped with tone dialling (these tones are usually audible when dialling).
1. Dial your fax number and wait for the outgoing message.
2. Whilst the OGM is playing, dial 01, 02 or 03 to select the voice box you wish to access. You will hear one, two or three beeps depending on which box you have selected, followed by a further tone.
Dial * to activate fax receiving.
Dial 0 to finish remote access and disconnect.

Toll saving feature

Regardless of the setting of your fax machine’ s ring response, if you have new voice messages stored,in any of the three voice boxes, your fax machine will answer incoming calls after 1 ring (2 rings in some countries). If you set the answer machine’s ring response to 3 rings, your machine will answer after 3 rings if no messages (or no new messages) are stored, or after 1 ring (2 rings in some countries) if you have new messages.
3. Press the [#] key and wait until you hear two beeps. Then enter the voice box password to gain access.
4. After 3 beeps, your machine will start playing incoming messages/memos. If there are no messages/memos, you will hear 7 beeps and the unit will disconnect.
If you do not set passwords for your voice boxes, you will not be able to access them remotely. The default setting ‘000’ disables remote access.
You now have the following options:
Dial 1 to play back memos and incoming messages (at the end you have 4 seconds to select one of the options listed).
Dial 2 to skip forward to the next message (3 beeps = end).
Dial 3 to skip backward to the previous message (3 beeps = end).
Dial 4 to erase the message being played.
34
You may then call from a remote location to check for new messages and if the telephone rings more than once (twice in some countries), hang up before the 3rd ring to avoid incurring call charges.
It is recommended that you set your machine’s answer machine ring response to no higher than 3.
Some older fax machines when trying to send to your machine need to hear your fax machine’s answer within 30 seconds or they will automatically disconnect. If you experience this problem, try to ensure that the total time of your ring response, outgoing message and silence detection is less than 30 seconds.

Problem solving

If you experience a problem, this section may help you to resolve it quickly . If the problem persists, please consult your equipment supplier or technical service provider.

Print quality problems

If received fax documents are not clear , it may be that the remote party has not selected the correct resolution. If you receive complaints that documents you have sent are unclear, try resending them at a higher resolution, or adjusting contrast (see ‘Setting User Preferences’). You can see what the document looks like after scanning by making a local copy (see ‘Copying’).

Cleaning the scanner

If there is a problem with the quality of a fax you have sent or a copied document, clean the scanner as indicated below:
1. Open the front panel by pushing the button on the top right hand corner and swinging the panel out and towards you.

The OKIF AX 660 has a REN (ringer equivalence number) v alue of 1. The REN is a customer guide indicating the maximum number of apparatus that should be simultaneously connected to the line. The total REN values of each of the items of apparatus must not exceed a REN value of 4. This value includes a telephone which, unless otherwise stated, has a REN value of 1.
This apparatus has been approved for the use of the following facilities:
- manual call initiation
- operation in the absence of proceed indication
- auto answer
- modem
- series connection
- simple telephone
- handsfree telephony
72
Any other usage will invalidate the approval of the apparatus if as a result it ceases to conform to the standards against which the approval was granted.
Interconnection circuits should be such that this equipment continues to comply with the requirements of 4.2 of EN 41003 for TNV circuits and 2.3 of EN60950 for SELV circuits after making connections between circuits.
Interconnection points ‘Line/TEL1/TEL2’ are for connection to TNV circuits, and the ‘Power Inlet Socket’ is for connection to a 220-240VAC, 50/60 Hz supply.
The apparatus has been approved for connection to the public switched telephone network provided by British Telecommunications Plc, Kingston Communications Plc, or Mercury Communications Ltd.
The OKIF AX 610 and 660 may be connected to any direct PSTN exchange line except as an extension to a payphone. The exchange line must provide facilities for either loop-disconnect or multi-frequency (MF) dialling.
In order to prevent the misdirection of calls and network interference, please ensure that all manually programmed telephone numbers are correctly entered.
OKIFAX 610/660
This apparatus is also approved for use as an extension instrument to compatible PBXs. The supplier of the apparatus should be consulted for an up-to-date list of PBXs with which this apparatus is compatible.
The 2V level indicates the maximum impairment that may be introduced between the terminal apparatus and the Network Terminal Point (NTP) of a Relevant Branch system (RBS) containing the apparatus.
The handset can be used to make “999” calls to the Emergency Services.
The second telephone or answering machine must be connected to the TEL 2 jack by means of the two-way adaptor provided.
The apparatus is suitable for connection to PBXs which return Secondary Proceed Indication. In these situations, please insert pauses between the initial access digit and the number to be dialled to the PSTN.
Series Connection
NOTE 1
The OKIFAX 610/660 causes a voltage drop of 1.35V when passing a PSTN current up to and including 40mA dc. Do not connect the OKIFAX 610/660 with apparatus which, with associated wiring causes the aggregate of the voltage drops to exceed a value of 2V at a PSTN line current of 40mA dc.
Only one OKIFAX 610/660 should be connected between any series connected apparatus and the PSTN.
Difficulties may occasionally be experienced when making calls from other apparatus connected to the PSTN via the series apparatus. Such difficulties may include:
(i) Difficulty in making calls
(ii) Problems in telephone conversion being experienced by
both parties to the call
(iii)Such that any apparatus which forms part of the RBS or
is connected via it, is so connected that no signals of any kind may be conveyed between that apparatus and a PSTN circuit or vice-versa, except by means of other apparatus that does not materially affect the electrical conditions presented to one another by that apparatus and the PSTN.
Further information is contained in the proposed British Standard for RBS to PSTN lines.

TEL/FAX Change Over
NOTE 2
When the OKIFAX 610 or 660 is in changeover mode, care must be taken to ensure that you only connect the apparatus to telephone lines not listed in the telephone directories issued by the Public Telephone Network Operators.
The telephone number of this apparatus should not be issued to other parties without instructions concerning the correct method of making calls to this apparatus.
While operation may be possible initially, changes to or modernisation of the network taking place in the normal course of events may result in the apparatus being connected to a network service with which it was not designed to be compatible. Failure of the apparatus to work under these circumstances may not be the responsibility of the network operator.
If such difficulties are experienced, please consult your OKIFAX supplier.
A Relevant Branch system (RBS) is a telecommunication system other than a public telecommunication system that is:-
(i) Run under a license granted or having effect under section
7 of the Telecommunications Act 1984.
(ii) Connected to one or more PSTN lines.
