The Compaq A4000 All-In-One offers three ways to
send a fax:
• Using the front control panel
• Using the Compaq Control Form
• Using the computer
When sending color faxes, the receiving fax machine will print
in color only if it supports color. Otherwise the fax will be sent
as a traditional black and white fax.
Preparing Documents for Faxing
You can use the A4000 to fax documents that will
print on standard letter, legal, or A4-sized paper.
Follow these guidelines to prepare your documents.
• Removing all staples, paper clips, and similar
items before feeding the document.
• Making sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on
the paper is completely dry before feeding the
document.
Some documents cannot be fed into the scanner input
feeder. For those documents, the A4000 comes with a
Copy/Scan Sleeve. The sleeve is a stiff piece of plastic
with a clear plastic overlay. Simply place your
document between the two pieces of plastic so that
your document is centered at the top and visible
through the clear plastic sheet. Use the Copy/Scan
Sleeve for the following types of documents:
• Envelopes
• Checks
• Receipts
• Fragile or thin documents
• Photographs
• Wrinkled or creased paper
• Curled or rolled paper
• Torn paper
• Carbon or carbon-backed paper
• Coated or glossy paper
CAUTION: Do not feed anything thicker than a normal sheet of paper
into the scanner, even if you use the Copy/Scan Sleeve. You cannot
!
scan credit cards, a driver’s license, etc. Doing so will damage your
sleeve and the A4000.
Loading the Documents
1. Place the document(s) to be faxed face down
and top down in the document input tray.
2. Adjust the document guides to match the width
of the document, if necessary.
3. Slide the document down into the tray until the

Pressing the Redial button dials the number that was
last entered. You can also modify the number using the
Clear button and the numeric keypad.
Automatic Redial
When you send a fax, if the number you have dialed is
busy or there is no answer, the A4000 hangs up, waits
for a specified interval, and redials the number. When
this occurs, the LCD panel shows the retry count and
the number of minutes left before the next retry. If
after a specified number of retry attempts (retry count)
the All-In-One fails to connect, the machine returns to

incoming fax will be received into memory. The memory can
store up to 80 pages. However, other tasks such as copying or
sending a fax may temporarily reduce the amount of memory
available.
Receiving Automatically in FAX Mode
In FAX mode, the A4000 answers an incoming call on
the second ring and receives the fax automatically.
Use the Settings Utility to change the number of rings
the A4000 will wait before answering the call.
The fax mode is recommended when you have a dedicated
telephone line for your Compaq A4000.
Receiving Automatically in ANS/FAX Mode
To use this mode, you must attach an answering
machine to the EXT socket on the All-In-One.
In ANS/FAX mode, your answering machine answers
the incoming call and the caller can leave a message
on the answering machine. If a fax tone is on the line,
the call automatically switches from the answering
machine to the A4000.
If your answering machine has a user-selectable ring
counter, set it to answer calls within the fewest
possible rings.
If your answering machine is turned off, or no answering
machine is connected to the A4000, the A4000 will
automatically attempt to receive a fax after 6 rings.
If more than one job is trying to transmit, use the
Options button to select the job you want to stop then
press the Stop button to stop your selection.
Pressing the Start button while a retry is waiting for
the retry interval to complete will cause the retry to
start immediately.

installed on your computer, and it must support MAPI
(a special mail interface). Examples of MAPI email
programs include Microsoft Outlook Express,
Microsoft Outlook, and Eudora. Also, you must have
an internet account and an email address.
By default, Scan To Email uses the TXT file type. This
will convert your scanned documents to ASCII text
and place the text in your email program for editing. If
you select another file type, either with the Settings
Utility or by using the Menu button on the front
control panel, your documents will be scanned using
the file type you choose and attached to you email

program will launch. The document text will be added
or the scanned images will be attached. Simply enter a
subject, select your recipients from your email address
book, and send!
Be sure and read over the scanned text for formatting or
editing mistakes. The character recognition does a great job of
converting characters, but the quality of conversion will depend
on the document being scanned.
You can send faxes directly to multiple email
recipients as well. For more information, see the
Faxing section.
Scanning with the Computer
The Compaq A4000 provides a standard TWAIN
interface for scanning documents into the PC. TWAIN
is a common scanner interface supported by many
application programs.

scanner source, typically found in the File menu, is set
to Compaq A4000 USB.
The Kodak Imaging for Windows program comes standard with
Windows (select Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Imaging).
Use it for your simple scanning needs.
There is extensive Online Help available from the Info
menu on the Scanner window shown below.
Scan to Applications
The remaining Scan To menu options are for defining
your own Scan To destinations. You can define up to
twelve (12) applications, numbered 3 through 14.
For instance, you can add Microsoft Paint and scan to
BMP files for editing. Add Microsoft Word and scan
to the RTF format for word processing. Or scan to a
program like Media Browser and upload your images
to the internet!

Maintaining Your A4000
Cleaning the Document Scanner
For best quality faxes and scans, you may occasionally
need to clean some internal parts of the machine, such
as the:
• white roller
• scanning glass
If these parts are dirty, documents scanned or sent to
another fax machine will not be clear.
To clean the internal parts of the A4000:
1. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet
or the rear of the machine.
2. Open the control panel.

Opening the control panel
3. Disassemble the white roller as follows:
Both ends of the white roller have plastic bushings
that are snapped shut with small tabs on them.
Pull the bushing slightly out, and rotate the
bushing until it reaches the slot. Then pull the roller
up.
4. Wipe the roller surface with a soft cloth
dampened with water.
5. Wipe the scanner glass surface with a soft cloth
dampened with water. Dry with a soft tissue.
6. After re-assembly, it is recommended that you
re-calibrate the scanner. See “Calibrating the
Scanner” in the Common Procedures chapter
for more information.
Cleaning the Cartridge Carrier
If the ink cartridge is not printing from some nozzles
as indicated on the test page, the cartridge carrier
contacts may need cleaning. See “Cleaning Print
Cartridges” in the Common Procedures chapter for
more information.
1. Lift the control panel by pulling toward you on
the edge nearest the LCD panel.
2. Lift the cartridge access door.
3. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet
or from the rear of the machine.
4. Remove the ink cartridges.
5. Use a clean dry cloth or tissue to clean the print
cartridge contacts inside of the machine.
6. Replace the ink cartridges.
7. Plug in the power cord.
Replacing the Document Separator Pad
If documents continually feed more than one page at a
time through the scanner assembly, you may need to
replace the document separator pad. Contact Customer
Service via the Compaq web site at www.compaq.com
for more information.
The life of the automatic document feed rubber varies with
use. It is unlikely you will ever need to replace this pad.
