NOTICE TO USERS

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this product. This compact machine is ideal for growing businesses, branch offices, or those users who wish to upgrade to a plain paper fax machine with a wide range of features.

WHAT DOES A FAX MACHINE DO?

When you write a letter, you normally seal it in an envelope, attach a stamp, and post it in the nearest letter box. Then in a few days, depending on the postal service, the letter will arrive at its destination. However, you may not be aware of its arrival until you get a return letter.

A fax machine speeds this process up. After you have written your letter, place it in your fax machine’s document feeder, dial the destination’s fax number, then press the Start key on your fax machine’s operation panel.

The fax machine scans your letter, and converts it into a series of black and white dots (the number of dots there are across the page and down the page depends on the resolution that you selected; refer to the specifications section of this manual for details). This series of dots is transformed into an electrical signal and sent out over the telephone line to the fax machine at the destination.

The fax machine at the destination reconstructs your letter from the received signal, and prints it. The quality of the printed message is not as good as the original, but it is good enough for most purposes.

If you are worried about whether the message arrived at the destination, you can check the report known as the Journal. When you print this report, you will see the results of the most recent fax communications made by your machine.

You can use your fax machine to send and receive any type of document, even photographs.

BAD TELEPHONE LINES AFFECT FAX COMMUNICATION

Quick and accurate transmission of fax messages depends on the condition of the telephone line, If the line condition is very good, this machine will transmit an A4-size page in 6 seconds. However, if the line is noisy, the speed may be reduced significantly, and the data may be damaged.

The symptoms of data loss caused by a noisy telephone line are seen on the printouts of received messages. An example is shown opposite. Note that lines are missing from the page at the indicated locations. ECM is an effective countermeasure against this type of error.

The line condition is affected by the weather; thunderstorms can cause electrical noise on telephone lines. The operation of the equipment in the telephone exchange, such as switches, can also cause noise on the line.

The following table shows how many telephone numbers you can store in the ma chine.

Quick Dial 32 Speed Dial 100 Ten Key Pad (✬2) 96 Groups (✬3) 10

✬1 The limitation on this feature is imposed by the capacity of the broadcasting

machine.

✬2 This is the number of full telephone numbers that can be input into the ma -

chine at any one time. For example, if there is a broadcasting operation in memory using 95 full numbers, you can only input one more full number for any operation, including storage in groups, until the broadcast has finished. Also, if you store, say, 35 numbers at the ten key pad into your groups, then you will only be able to input 61 full dial numbers at any one time for other op erations, such as broadcasting.

✬3 You can program up to 10 groups. Each group can contain up to 200 num -

bers; however, if you wish to use a Group for Transfer Request, make sure that this group does not have more than 30 numbers. You can store any Quick Dial or Speed Dial number in a group. You may also store up to 96 numbers that are not programmed as Quick or Speed Dials; see note 2 above for the restrictions on the use of these numbers.

✬

4 This is the theoretical maximum number of pages that can be stored. In prac -

tice, you will only be able to store this number of pages if you install the op tional hard disk unit.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

WARNING: Do not attempt any maintenance or troubleshooting other than

that mentioned in this manual. This machine contains a laser beam generator and direct exposure to laser beams can cause permanent eye damage.

POWER AND GROUNDING

Pay attention to the following.

Power Supply

1. Power requirements: 220-240 Vac, 50 Hz

2. Insert the power plug securely into the wall socket.

3. Do not connect other equipment to the same socket.

4. Do not step on or set anything on the power cord.

5. If an extension cord must be used, it must have a capacity of more than 300V/10A and must be less than 5 m long.

6. Do not connect other equipment to the same extension cord.

7. Be sure that the power cord is not in a po sition where it would trip some one.

Grounding

Ground the machine and the lightning protec tion circuit in accordance with regulations. Do not ground to gas or water pipes, or to a telephone ground lug. Proper grounding is to the ground terminal of the power outlet. Be sure that the ground terminal of the power outlet is properly grounded.

The lightning protection circuit for the machine requires the machine to be prop erly grounded. If proper grounding is provided, about 90% of lightning damage can be prevented. For safety, be sure to connect the machine to a three-prong grounded outlet.

COLD WEATHER POWER-UP

Avoid raising the room temperature abruptly when it is below 14°C, or condensation may form inside the machine.

1. Raise the room temperature to 20 °C at less than 10°C per hour.

2. Wait for 30 to 60 minutes.

3. Turn the power on.

Do not use the machine near a humidifier.

THUNDERSTORMS

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

With proper grounding, about 90% of lightning damage can be prevented. However, if possi ble, during severe electric storms turn the power switch off and disconnect the power cord and telephone line cord.

Note for users with no hard disk All fax messages stored in the memory may be erased if power is switched off for more than an hour.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

They may be very hot.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

LOCATION

For the best possible performance, install your machine in a place which satisfies the following conditions.

❐ Not exposed to direct sunlight ❐ Well ventilated (air turnover at least three times per hour) ❐ Level ❐ Not subject to vibration ❐ Away from other electronic equipment, to

avoid interference

❐ Away from areas containing corrosive

gas

❐ Dust-free ❐ Condensation-free ❐ Temperature 17 to 28°C ❐ Humidity 40 to 70% RH (do not install

near a humidifier)

❐ Away from heaters and air conditioners,

to avoid sudden changes of temperature

❐ Within 5 m of a three-pin grounded

power outlet (220 - 240 Volts, 50 Hz)

❐ With the clearance as shown on the right

10 cm

IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT POWER CONNECTION

❐ The supply from the wall outlet must not fluctuate by more than 10V either side

of 230 Vac.

❐ The power cord should not be laid in a place where it might trip somebody. ❐ Do not lay anything on the power cord. ❐ If you have to use an extension cord, make sure that it is capable of carrying

300V/10A, and that your facsimile terminal is the only piece of equipment con nected to that cord.

NOTE: This machine generates a certain amount of ozone. Although the

amount generated is within safety requirements, it is recommended that, to avoid ozone buildup, you install the machine in a room which can be air-conditioned or well ventilated.
