Important
Handling and using special
paper2
The machine is designed to work well with
most types of xerographic and bond paper.
However, some paper variables may have an
effect on print quality or handling reliability.
Always test samples of paper before
purchasing to ensure desirable performance.
Store paper in its original packaging and keep
it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from
moisture, direct sunlight and heat.
Some important guidelines when selecting
paper are:
DO NOT use inkjet paper because it may
cause a paper jam or damage your
machine.
Preprinted paper must use ink that can
withstand the temperature of the
machine’s fusing process of 392 degrees
Fahrenheit (200 degrees centigrade).
If you use bond paper, paper that has a
rough surface or paper that is wrinkled or
creased, the paper may exhibit degraded
performance.
Types of paper to avoid2
Some types of paper may not perform well
or may cause damage to your machine.
DO NOT use paper:
• that is highly textured
• that is extremely smooth or shiny
• that is curled or warped
1
1
1 A curl of 2 mm or greater may cause
jams to occur.
• that is coated or has a chemical finish
• that is damaged, creased or folded
• that exceeds the recommended weight
specification in this guide
• with tabs and staples
• with letterheads using low temperature
dyes or thermography
• that is multipart or carbonless
2
• that is designed for inkjet printing
If you use any of the types of paper listed
above, they may damage your machine.
This damage may not be covered under
any our warranty or service agreement.
15
Chapter 2
Important
Envelopes2
Most envelopes designed for laser printers
will be suitable for your machine. However,
some envelopes may have feed and printquality problems because of the way they
have been made. A suitable envelope should
have edges with straight, well-creased folds
and the leading edge should not be thicker
than two sheets of paper. The envelope
should lie flat and not be of baggy or flimsy
construction. You should buy quality
envelopes from a supplier who understands
that you will be using the envelopes in a laser
machine.
Envelopes can be fed from the manual feed
slot one at a time. We recommend that you
print a test envelope to make sure the print
results are what you want before you print or
purchase a large quantity of envelopes.
Types of envelopes to avoid2
• with edges that are not straight or
consistently square
• with windows, holes, cut-outs or
perforations
• with glue on the surface as shown in
the figure below
• with double flaps as shown in the figure
below
DO NOT use envelopes:
• that are damaged, curled, wrinkled or
an unusual shape
• that are extremely shiny or textured
• with clasps, staples, snaps or tie
strings
• with self-adhesive closures
• that are of a baggy construction
• that are not sharply creased
• that are embossed (have raised writing
on them)
• that were previously printed by a laser
machine
• that are pre-printed on the inside
• that cannot be arranged neatly when
stacked
• that are made of paper that weighs
more than the paper weight
specifications for the machine
• with sealing flaps that are not folded
down when purchased
• with sealing flaps as shown in the
figure below
• with each side folded as shown in the
figure below
16
Loading paper
Important
If you use any of the types of envelopes
listed in this guide, they may damage your
machine. This damage may not be
covered under any our warranty or service
agreement.
Labels2
The machine will print on most types of labels
designed for use with a laser machine. Labels
should have an adhesive that is acrylic-based
since this material is more stable at the high
temperatures in the fuser unit. Adhesives
should not come in contact with any part of
the machine, because the label stock may
stick to the drum unit or rollers and cause
jams and print quality problems. No adhesive
should be exposed between the labels.
Labels should be arranged so that they cover
the entire length and width of the sheet. Using
labels with spaces may result in labels
peeling off and causing serious jams or print
problems.
All labels used in this machine must be able
to withstand a temperature of 392 degrees
Fahrenheit (200 degrees centigrade) for a
period of 0.1 seconds.
Do not feed a label sheet through the
machine more than one time.
Types of labels to avoid2
Do not use labels that are damaged, curled,
wrinkled or an unusual shape.
2
• DO NOT feed part used label sheets. The
exposed carrier sheet will damage your
machine.
• Label sheets should not exceed the paper
weight specifications described in this
User’s Guide. Labels exceeding this
specification may not feed or print
correctly and may cause damage to your
machine.
• DO NOT reuse or insert labels that have
previously been used or are missing any
labels on the sheet.

Telephone Service for
Some Countries6
Distinctive Ringing (For
Singapore and Hong Kong)6
This machine feature lets you use the
Distinctive Ringing subscriber service offered
by some telephone companies, which allows
you to have several telephone numbers on
one telephone line. Each telephone number
has its own Distinctive Ringing pattern, so
you will know which telephone number is
ringing. This is one way you can have a
separate telephone number for your
machine.
Your machine has a Distinctive Ringing
function, allowing you to dedicate one
telephone number just for receiving faxes.
You will need to set Distinctive Ringing to On.
Set the Distinctive Ring to On6
After you have set the Distinctive Ring feature
to ON, the receive mode is set to Manual
automatically. Unless you have a TAD or
Voice Mail set up on the Distinctive Ring
number, Manual mode means you must
answer all the calls yourself. You can not
change the receive mode to another mode
while the Distinctive Ring is set to on.

Connecting an external
TAD 6
You can connect an external Telephone
Answering Device (TAD) to the same line as
your machine. When the TAD answers a call,
your machine will “listen” for the CNG (fax
calling) tones sent by a sending fax machine.
If it hears them it will take over the call and
receive the fax. If it does not hear them, it will
let your TAD take a voice message and the
display will show Telephone (for EU) or
Ext. Tel in Use (for Asia).
The external TAD must answer within four
rings (we recommend you set it to two rings).
This is because your machine cannot hear
the CNG tones until the external TAD has
picked up the call. The sending machine will
only send CNG tones for eight to ten more
seconds. We do not recommend using the toll
saver feature on your external TAD if it needs
more than four rings to activate it.
Connections6
The external TAD must be connected as
shown in the illustration below.
Type A6
For the countries such as USA, Canada,
Spain, Netherlands, Portugal, Poland,
Hungary, Czech, Norway, Asia, Oceania and
etc.
Before you connect an external TAD, remove
the protective cap (2) from the EXT. jack on
the machine.
If you have problems receiving faxes,
reduce the ring delay setting on your
external TAD.

a Set your external TAD to one or two

setting does not apply.)
Recording an outgoing
message (OGM)6
a Record 5 seconds of silence at the
beginning of your message. This allows
your machine time to listen for fax tones.
b Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
c End your 20-second message by giving
your Remove Activation Code for
people sending manual faxes. For
example: “After the beep, leave a
message or press l51 and to send a
fax.”
6
• You need to turn the Remote Codes
setting to on to use the Fax Activation
Code l51. (See Using Remote Codesuu page 33.)
• We recommend beginning your OGM with
an initial 5 second silence because the
machine may not hear the fax tones over
a voice. You may try leaving out this
pause, but if your machine has trouble
receiving, then you should re-record the
OGM to include it.
Multi-line connections (PBX) 6
b Record the outgoing message on your
external TAD.
c Set the TAD to answer calls.
d Set the Receive Mode to External
TAD. (See Choosing the receive mode
uu page 22.)
We suggest you ask the company who
installed your PBX to connect your machine.
If you have a multi line system we suggest
you ask the installer to connect the unit to the
last line on the system. This prevents the
machine being activated each time the
system receives telephone calls. If all
incoming calls will be answered by a
switchboard operator we recommend that
you set the Receive Mode to Manual.
We cannot guarantee that your machine will
operate correctly under all circumstances
when connected to a PBX. Any difficulties
with sending or receiving faxes should be
reported first to the company who handles
your PBX.

Operation from external or
extension telephones6
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, or an external telephone that is
correctly connected to the machine through
the T-piece connection, you can make your
machine take the call by using the Remote
Activation code. When you press the Remote
Activation code l51 the machine starts to
receive the fax.
If you answer a call and no one is on
the line:6
You should assume that you’re receiving a
manual fax.
Press l51 and wait for the chirp or until the
LCD shows Receiving, and then hang up.
You can also use the Fax Detect feature to
make your machine automatically take the
call. (See Fax Detectuu page 25.)
For Fax/Tel mode only6
When the machine is in Fax/Tel mode, it will
use the F/T Ring Time (fast/double-ringing) to
alert you to pick up a voice call.
Lift the external telephone’s handset, and
then press to answer.
If you are at an extension telephone, you will
need to lift the handset of the extension
telephone during the F/T Ring Time and then
press #51 on the extension telephone
between the fast/double rings to turn the F/T
ring off. If no one is on the line, or if someone
wants to send you a fax, send the call back to
the machine by pressing l51.
Using extension telephones
(U.K. only)6
Your premises may already be wired with
parallel extension telephones (those
connected to sockets in other rooms in the
building), or perhaps you intend to add
extension telephones to your line. While the
simplest arrangement is a parallel
connection, there are some reasons why this
arrangement may cause problems.
The most common problem is someone
picking up an extension telephone while the
machine is trying to send a fax.
Such problems can easily be eliminated, if
you arrange modification of your extension
wiring circuit, such that extension devices are
connected “downstream” of your machine, in
a master/slave configuration (see figure 2). In
such a configuration, this machine can
always detect whether a telephone is in use,
so it will not attempt to seize the line during
that time. This is known as “telephone
off-hook detection”.
The inadvisable configuration is shown in
figure 1, and the recommended master/slave
configuration is shown in figure 2.
This new connection configuration can be
arranged by contacting BT, Kingston upon
Hull Telecommunications, your PBX
maintainer or a qualified telephone
installation company as appropriate. Simply
explained, the extension telephone circuit
should be terminated on a normal modular
plug (BT 431A style), which in turn should be
inserted into the modular socket of the white
“T”-shaped connector provided as part of the
line cord assembly.

Using a cordless external
handset6
If your cordless telephone is connected to the
machine through the T-piece connection (see
Connecting an external or extension
telephone uu page 30) and you typically
carry the cordless handset elsewhere, it is
easier to answer calls during the Ring Delay.
If you let the machine answer first, lift the
cordless handset and then go to the machine
so you can press to transfer the call to the
cordless handset.

Using Remote Codes6
Remote Activation Code 6
If you answer a fax call on an extension
telephone, you can tell your machine to
receive it by pressing the Remote Activation
Code l51. Wait for the chirping sounds then
replace the handset. (See Fax Detectuu page 25.)
If you answer a fax call on the external
telephone, you can make the machine
receive the fax by pressing .
Remote Deactivation Code6
If you receive a voice call and the machine is
in F/T mode, it will start to sound the F/T ring
(double-ring) after the initial ring delay. If you
pick up the call on an extension telephone
you can turn the F/T ring off by pressing #51
(make sure you press this between the rings).
If the machine answers a voice call and
fast/double-rings for you to take over;
you can take the call at the external telephone

Cleaning the machineA
Clean the outside and inside of the machine
regularly with a dry, lint-free cloth. When you
replace the toner cartridge or the drum unit,
make sure that you clean the inside of the
machine. If printed pages are stained with
toner, clean the inside of the machine with a
dry, lint-free cloth.
DO NOT use flammable substances, any
type of spray, or an organic solvent/liquid
containing alcohol or ammonia to clean the
inside or outside of the machine. Doing so
could cause a fire. Instead, use only a dry,
lint-free cloth.
(See Product Safety Guide: General precautions.)
Make sure that you put in the toner
cartridge correctly or it may separate from
the drum unit.

until the top edge of the paper touches
the paper feed roller. When you feel the
machine pull in the paper, let go. The
machine will start the Drum Cleaning
process.
• The machine makes a mechanical noise
during the Drum Cleaning process
because the machine rotates the drum in
reverse. This noise is not due to a
malfunction of the machine.

• DO NOT put more than one sheet of paper
in the manual feed slot at any one time, as
it may cause a jam.
• If the paper in the manual feed slot is not
A4 or Letter size, the machine will stop the
Drum Cleaning process and eject the
paper.
• Make sure that the paper is straight and in
the correct position in the manual feed
slot. If it is not, it may not be fed correctly,
resulting in a paper jam.
• DO NOT close the back cover (face-up

If you are having difficulty with your machineB
• If you think there is a problem with your machine, check the chart below and follow the
troubleshooting tips. You can solve most problems by yourself.
• If you think there is a problem with the way your faxes look, make a copy first. If the copy looks
good, the problem may not be your machine. Check the chart below and follow the
troubleshooting tips.
• Using third party supplies may affect the print quality, hardware performance, and machine
reliability.

Missing lines
Poor print qualitySee Improving the print qualityuu page 81.
Vertical black lines when receiving The corona wire for printing may be dirty. Clean the corona wire on the drum unit.
Received faxes appear as split or

Usually this is caused by a poor telephone connection. If your copy looks good,
you probably had a bad connection, with static or interference on the telephone
line. Ask the other party to send the fax again.
(See Cleaning the corona wire uu page 52.)
The sender’s scanner may be dirty. Ask the sender to make a copy to see if the
problem is with the sending machine. Try receiving from another fax machine.
If the problem continues, call your dealer for service.
If the received faxes are divided and printed on two pages or if you get an extra

Check all line cord connections.
Check that the machine is plugged in and switched on.
If an external phone is connected to the machine, send a manual fax by lifting the
handset of the external telephone and dialling the number using the external
telephone.
Make sure the machine is in the correct receive mode for your setup. (See
Receive Mode settingsuu page 24.) Check for a dial tone. If possible, call your
machine to hear it answer. If there is still no answer, check the telephone line cord
connection. If you do not hear ringing when you call your machine, ask your

Receiving Faxes
DifficultiesSuggestions
Cannot receive a fax.Check all line cord connections. Make sure the telephone line cord is plugged into
the telephone wall socket and the LINE socket of the machine. If you subscribe to
DSL or VoIP services, please contact your service provider for connection
instructions.
Make sure the machine is in the correct Receive Mode. This is determined by the
external devices and telephone subscriber services you have on the same line as
your machine. (See Receive Mode settings uu page 24.)
If you have a dedicated fax line and want your machine to automatically answer
all incoming faxes, you should select Fax Only mode.
If your machine shares a line with an external answering machine, you should
select the External TAD mode. In External TAD mode, your machine will
automatically receive incoming faxes and voice callers will be able to leave a
message on your answering machine.
If your machine shares a line with other telephones and you want it to
automatically answer all incoming faxes, you should select the Fax/Tel mode. In
Fax/Tel mode, your machine will automatically receive faxes and produce a
fast/double-ring to alert you to answer voice calls.
If you do not want your machine to automatically answer any incoming faxes, you
should select the Manual mode. In Manual mode, you must answer every
incoming call and activate the machine to receive faxes.
Another device or service at your location may be answering the call before your
machine answers. To test this, lower the ring delay setting:
If the answer mode is set to Fax Only or Fax/Tel, reduce the ring delay to
1 ring. (See Ring Delayuu page 24.)
If the answer mode is set to External TAD, reduce the number of rings
programmed on your answering machine to 2.
If the answer mode is set to Manual, DO NOT adjust the ring delay setting.
Have someone send you a test fax:
If you received the test fax successfully, your machine is operating correctly.
Remember to reset your ring delay or answering machine setting back to your
original setting. If receiving problems recur after resetting the ring delay, then
a person, device, or subscriber service is answering the fax call before the
machine has a chance to answer.
If you were not able to receive the fax, then another device or subscriber
service may be interfering with your fax reception or there may be a problem
with your fax line.

(See Connecting an external TADuu page 28.)
1 Connect the external TAD as shown in the illustration on page 28.
2 Set your answering machine to answer in one or two rings.
3 Record the outgoing message on your answering machine.
Record five seconds of silence at the beginning of your outgoing
message.
Limit your speaking to 20 seconds.
End your outgoing message with your Remote Activation Code for people
sending manual faxes. For example: “After the beep, leave a message or
press l51 and Start to send a fax.”
4 Set your answering machine to answer calls.
5 Set your machine’s Receive Mode to External TAD. (See Receive Mode
settingsuu page 24.)
Make sure your machine’s Fax Detect feature is turned On. Fax Detect is a feature
that allows you to receive a fax even if you have answered the call on an external
or extension telephone. (See Fax Detectuu page 25.)
If you often get transmission errors due to possible interference on the telephone
line, try changing the Compatibility setting to Basic(for VoIP). (See
Telephone line interference/VoIPuu page 80.)

Handling incoming calls (continued)
DifficultiesSuggestions
Custom features on a single line.If you have Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID, Caller ID, Voice Mail, an
answering machine, an alarm system or other custom feature on a single
telephone line with your machine, it may create a problem sending or receiving
faxes.
For Example: If you subscribe to Call Waiting or some other custom service and
its signal comes through the line while your machine is sending or receiving a fax,
the signal can temporarily interrupt or disrupt the fax. The ECM feature should
help overcome this problem. This condition is related to the telephone system
industry and is common to all devices that send and receive information on a
single, shared line with custom features. If avoiding a slight interruption is crucial
to your business, a separate line with no custom features is recommended.
Menu access difficulties
DifficultiesSuggestions
The ma chine beeps when you try to
access the Setup Receive and
Setup Send menus.
If FAX is not illuminated, press it to turn on FAX mode. The Setup
Receive settings (, 2, 1) and Setup Send settings (, 2, 2) are available only
when the machine is in FAX mode.

If there is no paper, load a new stack of paper into the paper tray.
If there is paper in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled,
you should straighten it. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the
stack over and put it back into the paper tray.
Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.
Clean the paper pick-up roller. See Routine maintenance uu page 39.
If the LCD shows the Paper Jam message and you still have a problem, see

You can load envelopes from the manual feed slot.
Troubleshooting
Print quality difficulties
DifficultiesSuggestions
Printed pages are curled. Low quality thin or thick paper or not printing on the recommended side of the
paper could cause this problem. Try turning over the stack of paper in the
paper tray.
Make sure that you choose the Paper Type that suits the print media type you
are using. (See Acceptable paper and other print media uu page 13.)
Too little or too much humidity or extreme temperatures can cause the paper
to curl. (See Generaluu page 103.)
Printed pages are smeared.The Paper Type setting may be incorrect for the type of print media you are using,
or the print media may be too thick or have a rough surface. (See Acceptable paper and other print mediauu page 13.)
Printouts are too light. If this problem occurs when making copies or printing received faxes, set
Toner Save to Off in the machine’s menu settings. (See Advanced User’s
Guide: Toner Save.)
Adjust the Print Density by pressing , 2, 1, 6 and then press
the print darker. (See Advanced User’s Guide: Setting the Print Density.)

DifficultiesSuggestions
The machine will not turn on.Adverse conditions on the power connection (such as lightning or a power surge)
may have triggered the machine’s internal safety mechanisms. Turn the machine
off and unplug the power cord. Wait for ten minutes, then plug in the power cord
and turn the machine on.
If the problem is not solved, turn off the machine. Plug the power cord into a
different known working outlet and turn on the machine.

Setting Dial Tone detectionB
Note
When you send a fax automatically, by
default your machine will wait for a fixed
amount of time before it starts to dial the
number. By changing the Dial Tone setting to
Detection you can make your machine dial as
soon as it detects a dial tone. This setting can
save a small amount of time when sending a
fax to many different numbers. If you change
the setting and start having problems with
dialling you should change back to the default
No Detection setting.

Improving the print qualityB
If the printout has a quality problem, make a copy. If the copy looks good, the problem is probably
not the machine. Check the interface cable connections and the following steps first. And then, if
you still have a print quality problem, check the chart below and follow the recommendations.
We do not recommend the use of cartridges other than genuine our branded cartridges or the
refilling of used cartridges with toner from other sources.
a To get the best print quality, we suggest using the recommended paper. Check that you use
paper that meets our specifications. (See Acceptable paper and other print mediauu page 13.)
