LOADING A DOCUMENT

A document can be loaded in the automatic document feeder or on the document glass. Use the automatic document feeder when faxing a large number of sheet originals. Use the document glass to fax originals that cannot be scanned using the automatic document feeder such as thick or thin sheet originals or bound originals such as books.

USING THE AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER

Lift the document glass cover and make

sure a document is not placed on the document glass. Gently close the cover.

Adjust the document guides on the automatic

document feeder to the width of the document.

USING THE DOCUMENT GLASS

Align the edges of the document pages and then insert the stack in the document feeder so that the first page is face up.

Insert the stack into the automatic document feeder until it stops. The stack should not be higher than the indicator line (maximum 150 pages, for 8-1/2"x11" (A4) 20lbs (80g/m

)).

Open the document glass cover, and place

the document face down on the document glass. Gently close the cover.

Original size detector

NOTE

Do not place any objects under the original size detector plate. Closing the document glass cover with an object underneath may damage the original size detector plate and prevent correct detection of the document size.

Regardless of the size of the original, place the original in the far left corner of the document glass. (Align the upper left-hand corner of the original with

the tip of the mark.)

ADDRESS

The fax function includes a convenient auto dial feature (one-touch dialing and group dialing). By programming frequently dialed numbers, you can call and send documents to these locations by means of a simple dialing operation (refer to page 2-4). There are two types of auto-dialing: one-touch dialing and group dialing. To program auto-dial numbers, refer to pages 6-3, 6-6.

One-touch dialing

●

Simply press a one-touch key and then press the [Start] key to dial the programmed location. A name of up to 36 characters can be programmed for the location (a maximum of 18 characters are displayed). When using Fcode transmission, a sub-address and passcode can also be programmed (refer to page 4-2).

Group dialing

●

Multiple one-touch dial locations can be programmed into a single one-touch key. This is convenient for successively sending a document to multiple locations.

• Full fax numbers entered with the numeric keys can also

be stored in group keys.

Speed dialing

●

When a one-touch key or group key is stored in the address book, the machine automatically assigns it a 3digit speed dial number. The key and 3-digit Speed Dial number can be used to abbreviate the transmission procedure.

Touch the [ADDRESS] key in the initial screen to display the left screen.

Redialing

●

The machine keeps the last fax or voice number dialed with the numeric keys in memory. You can redial the last number dialed by simply touching the [RESEND] key.

• If numeric keys were pressed during a phone

conversation, the [RESEND] key may not dial the correct number.

• If the previous transmission was a broadcast

transmission in which one-touch keys were used, the [RESEND] key cannot be used.

On-hook dialing

●

This is a dialing function. This feature allows you to dial without lifting an extension phone connected to the machine. Touch the [SPEAKER] key, listen for the dial tone through the speaker, and then dial.

• Faxes must be sent manually when using on-hook dialing.

• On-hook dialing is not possible using a one-touch key that

includes a sub-address and passcode, or a group dial key.

NOTES

A total of 999 one-touch dial and group dial keys can be programmed. (Refer to page 6-2.)

●

Programmed one-touch keys and group dial keys are stored on "index cards". A one-touch key or group key can

●

be easily accessed by touching the index key. (Refer to on page 1-5.) To prevent calling or sending a fax to a wrong number, look carefully at the touch panel and make sure you

●

program the correct number when programming an auto-dial number. After storing a number, you can also print out the stored number (Refer to page 6-14) to make sure it was stored correctly.

When you use the automatic document feeder to send a multi-page document and there are no previously stored jobs waiting or in progress (and the line is not being used), the machine dials the destination after the first page is scanned and begins transmitting scanned pages while the remaining pages are being scanned. This transmission method is called Quick On-line. The messages "SCANNING ORIGINAL." and "SENDING." both appear until scanning of the final page is completed. If the receiving party is busy, the transmission will switch to a memory transmission. (Refer to the following section, "Storing transmission jobs (memory transmission)".)

The machine is initially set (factory setting) to perform Quick On-line transmission. If desired, you can turn off this

●

function with the key operator program (See "Quick on line sending" on page 8-8). When a document is transmitted using the following methods, the job will be stored in memory (Quick On-line

●

transmission will not be performed):

Storing transmission jobs (memory transmission)

When a document is sent from the document glass, or when the telephone line is in use, the document is scanned into memory and then automatically transmitted after previously stored transmission jobs are completed. This means that transmission jobs can be stored in memory by performing a transmission operation while the machine is occupied with another transmission/reception operation. This is called memory transmission, and up to 97 jobs can be stored in memory at once, including the job currently being executed. After transmission, the scanned document data is cleared from memory. (However, when the document filing function is used, the scanned document image is stored in the machine's hard disk. For information on managing stored images, see "Document filing function" in chapter 7 of the "Operation manual (for general information and copier operation)".)

NOTES

You can check transmission jobs stored in memory in the job status screen. (Refer to page 1-14 of "Operation

●

manual (for general information and copier operation)".) If the memory becomes full while a document is being scanned, a message will appear in the display. You can

●

cancel the transmission by touching the [CANCEL] key, or send only the pages already scanned by touching the [SEND] key. The page that was being scanned when the memory became full will be cleared from memory. If the memory becomes full while scanning the first page of a document, the transmission job is automatically canceled. The number of jobs that can be stored will depend on the number of pages in each job and the transmission

●

conditions. The number of storable jobs will increase if the optional expansion memory (AR-MM9) is installed.

■■■■

If the receiving party is busy

If the receiving party is busy, the transmission is temporarily canceled and then automatically re-attempted after a brief interval (two attempts are made at an interval of 3 minutes*). If you do not want the machine to re-attempt the transmission, cancel the job in the job status screen. (See following page.) *This setting can be changed with the key operator program (See "Recall in case of line busy" on page 8-8.).

■■■■

If a transmission error occurs

If an error occurs that prevents transmission or the receiving machine does not answer the call within 45 seconds*, the transmission is stopped and then automatically re-attempted later. (one recall attempt is made at an interval of 3 minute*) Automatic recalling can be stopped by pressing the [JOB STATUS] key and canceling as explained on the following page. This machine also supports error correction mode (ECM) and is set to resend any part of a fax that is distorted due to noise on the line. (See "ECM" on page 8-7) * The settings can be changed in the key operator programs. (See "Call timer at memory sending" and "Recall

in case of communication error" on page 8-8).

Image rotation

The machine is initially set to rotate a vertically-placed ( )document 90° so that it is oriented horizontally( ) before transmission (8-1/2"x11" (A4) originals are rotated to 8-1/2"x11"R (A4R) and 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R (B5R or A5R) originals are rotated to 5-1/2"x8-1/2" (B5 or A5)). 8-1/2"x11"R (A4R) originals and 5-1/2"x8-1/2" (B5 or A5) originals are not rotated. If desired, you can turn this function off with the key operator program as explained in "Rotation sending setting." on page 8-7.

NOTE

Place 5-1/2"x8-1/2" (A5) size originals so that they are oriented vertically ( ). If oriented horizontally ( 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R (A5R) orientation), the original size will be detected as 8-1/2"x11" (A4) size on the document glass, or 5-1/2"x8-1/2"R (A5R) size in the automatic document feeder, and thus the original size must be set manually by touching the [ORIGINAL] key and then the [5-1/2"x8-1/2"R] ([A5R]) key. (See "MANUALLY SETTING THE SCANNING SIZE" on page 1-8.)

If you have an urgent transmission job and multiple transmission jobs have already been stored, you can give priority to the urgent job so that it will be transmitted immediately after the job currently being executed. This is done from the job status screen. For details on using the job status screen, refer to page 1-14 of "Operation manual (for general information and copier operation)".

Press the [JOB STATUS] key.

Touch the [FAX JOB] key.

Touch the key of the job to which you wish

to give priority.

The touched key is highlighted.

Touch the [PRIORITY] key.

The selected job moves up to the next position after the job currently being executed. When the current job is completed, execution begins of the job selected in step 3.

NOTE

If the job in progress is a broadcast transmission job (see page 3-2) or a serial polling job (see page 3-12), the priority job will temporarily interrupt the job after the transmission currently in progress is finished. When the priority job is finished, the broadcast transmission or serial polling job will resume. However, if the priority job is also a broadcast transmission or serial polling operation, the job is begun after all transmissions of the current broadcast or serial polling job are completed.

CANCELING A FAX TRANSMISSION

You can cancel a transmission job that is in progress or has been stored. Cancellation is done from the fax job status screen. (Printing of a received fax cannot be canceled.)

Press the [JOB STATUS] key.

Touch the [FAX JOB] key.

Touch the key of the job that you wish to

cancel.

The touched key is highlighted.

Touch the [STOP/DELETE] key.

A message appears to confirm the cancellation. Touch the [YES] key to delete the selected job key and cancel the transmission.

NOTES

If you do not wish to cancel the transmission,

●

touch the [NO] key. "STOPPED" will appear in the Transaction Report

●

of a job that is canceled.

CANCELING ON-HOOK DIALING

To cancel on-hooking dialing (dialing by touching the [SPEAKER] key and then the numeric keys) when you need to redial the number or because transmission was interrupted, touch the [SPEAKER] key once again.
