You have many functions available to you for fax trans­mission, for example, different resolutions or the timer function. You can secure your fax reception with a code. In that case, incoming faxes are not printed out, but rather are stored in the fax memory. With the fax polling function, you can retrieve faxes that lie ready in the dialled device.
Time Stamp
The device prints the date and the exact arrival time on every incoming fax received. This allows you to docu­ment the exact time at which you have received a fax transmission. A memory buffer in the device ensures that the correct date and time of reception will be main­tained even after a power loss.

You can print a list of all saved documents or individual documents as well as de­lete files. Save scanned documents or incoming faxes on to the USB storage medium.
Companion Center SFX
You can connect the device to a computer and use it as a printer or scanner. You'll find the software on the sup­plied installation CD Companion Center SFX. In this way, you can scan and edit photos and texts, send and receive faxes and access the device's web interfaces, with which you can change many settings.

Inserting Slides and Labels
Use slides which are designed for copiers and laser printers as they must stand up to high temperatures and printing. The printing side is usually somewhat rougher than the reverse side.
You can insert slides and sheets of labels into the paper tray and into the manual paper feed. It is preferable to use the manual paper feed for printing on this print me­dia (see also chapter Load Paper into the Manual Paper Feed, page 26).
Unsuitable Slides and Labels!
CAUTION!
Unsuitable Slides and Labels!
Do not use slides which are designed for man­ual inscription or for an overhead projector. These slides can melt in the device and dam­age it.
Use sheets of labels for use in laser printers. The labels must cover the entire sheet other­wise they could peel off in the device.
