Fax Branding
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other electronic device to send any
message via a telephone facsimile machine unless such message clearly contains in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or
on the first page of the transmission the following information:
1. the date and time of transmission
2. identification of either business, business entity or individual sending the message; and
3. telephone number of either the sending machine, business, business entity or individual.
The Telephone Company may make changes in its communications facilities, equipment operations or procedures where such action is
reasonably required in the operation of its business and is not inconsistent with the rules and regulations in FCC Part 68. If such changes can
be reasonably expected to render any customer terminal equipment incompatible with telephone company communications facilities, or require
modification or alteration of such terminal equipment, or otherwise materially affect its use or performance, the customer shall be given
adequate notice in writing, to allow the customer an opportunity to maintain uninterrupted service
Ringer Equivalence Number
The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this machine may be found on the label located on the bottom or rear of the
machine. In some instances you may need to provide these numbers to the telephone company.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is a measure of the electrical load placed on the telephone line, and is useful for determining whether
you have “overloaded” the line. Installing several types of equipment on the same telephone line may result in problems making and receiving
telephone calls, especially ringing when your line is called. The sum of all Ringer Equivalence Numbers of the equipment on your telephone
line should be less than five in order to assure proper service from the telephone company. In some cases, a sum of five may not be usable on
your line. If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it from your telephone line, as it may
cause harm to the telephone network.
The equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted by the ACTA. On the rear of this equipment is a label that
contains, among other information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the
telephone company.
FCC Regulations state that changes or modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment. In the event that terminal equipment causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
should notify the customer that service may be stopped. However, where prior notice is impractical, the company may temporarily cease
service, providing that they:
a)promptly notify the customer.
b)give the customer an opportunity to correct the equipment problem.
c)inform the customer of the right to bring a complaint to the Federal Communication Commission pursuant to procedures set out in FCC
Rules and Regulations Subpart E of Part 68.
You should also know that:
•Your machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.
•If you intend to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as your machine, you may experience transmission and
reception problems with all the equipment. It is recommended that no other equipment, except for a regular telephone, share the line with
your machine.
•If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for both the power
and the telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or telephone and electronic specialty stores.
•When programming emergency numbers and/or making test calls to emergency numbers, use a non-emergency number to advise the
emergency service dispatcher of your intentions. The dispatcher will give you further instructions on how to actually test the emergency
number.
•This machine may not be used on coin service or party lines.
•This machine provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.
You may safely connect this equipment to the telephone network by means of a standard modular jack, USOC RJ-11C.

Wireless Guidance
Low power, Radio LAN type devices (radio frequency (RF) wireless communication devices), operating in the 2.4 GHz/5 GHz Band, may be
present (embedded) in your printer system. The following section is a general overview of considerations while operating a wireless device.
Additional limitations, cautions, and concerns for specific countries are listed in the specific country sections (or country group sections). The
wireless devices in your system are only qualified for use in the countries identified by the Radio Approval Marks on the system rating label. If
the country you will be using the wireless device in, is not listed, contact your local Radio Approval agency for requirements. Wireless devices
are closely regulated and use may not be allowed.
The power output of the wireless device or devices that may be emb
time. Because the wireless devices (which may be embedded into your printer) emit less energy than is allowed in radio frequency safety
standards and recommendations, manufacturer believes these devices are safe for use. Regardless of the power levels, care should be taken
to minimize human contact during normal operation.
As a general guideline, a separation of 20 cm (8 inches) betwe
(this does not include extremities) is typical. This device should be used more than 20 cm (8 inches) from the body when wireless devices are
on and transmitting.
This transmitter must not be collocated or operation
Some circumstances require restrictions on wireless devices.
Radio frequency wireless communication can interfere with equipment on commercial aircraft. Current aviation regulations require wireless
devices to be turned off while traveling in an airplane. IEEE 802.11 (also known as wireless Ethernet) and Bluetooth communication devices
are examples of devices that provide wireless communication.
In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless
device may be restricted or eliminated. Airports, Hospitals, and Oxygen or flammable gas laden atmospheres are limited examples where use
of wireless devices may be restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the sanction to use wireless devices, ask
the applicable authority for authorization prior to use or turning on the wireless device.
edded in your printer is well below the RF exposure limits as known at this
en the wireless device and the body, for use of a wireless device near the body
in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Examples of common restrictions are listed below:
Every country has different restrictions on the use of wireless devices. Since your system is equipped with a wireless device, when traveling
between countries with your system, check with the local Radio Approval authorities prior to any move or trip for any restrictions on the use of
a wireless device in the destination country.
If your system came equipped with an internal embedded wireless device, do not operate the wireless device unless all covers and shields are
in place and the system is fully assembled.
Wireless devices are not user serviceable. Do not modify them in any way. Modification to a wireless device will void the authorization to use it.
Contact manufacturer for service.
Only use drivers approved for the country in which the device will be used. See the manufacturer System Restoration Kit, or contact
manufacturer Technical Support for additional information.

Setting IP address
First, you have to set up an IP address for network printing and
managements. In most cases, a new IP address will be automatically
assigned by a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server located
on the network.
In a few situations, the IP address must be set manually. This is called a
static
IP and is often required in a corporate Intranets for security reasons.
•D
HCP IP assignment: Connect your machine to the network, and wait a
few minutes for the DHCP server to assign an IP address to the
machine. Then, print the Network Configuration Report as explained
above. If the report shows that the IP address has changed, the
assignment was successful. You will see the new IP address in the
report. (See "Printing a network configuration report" on page 2.)

rangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between
them. Labels can peel off sheets that have spaces between the
labels, causing serious jams.
-Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm
(0.5
1 inches) of curl in any direction.
-Cond
ition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other
indications of separation.
•Make
sure that there is no exposed adhesive material between labels.
Exposed areas can cause labels to peel off during printing, which can
cause paper jams. Exposed adhesive can also cause damage to
machine components.
•D
o not run a sheet of labels through the machine more than once. The
adhesive backing is designed for only a single pass through the
AAAAA
machine.
•Do not use labels that are separating from the backing sheet or are
wrinkled, bubbled or otherwise damaged.
CardStock/Custom-sized paper
Postcards, cards and other custom-sized materials can be printed with your
machine.
•Do not print on media smaller than 76 mm (3 inches) wide or 152.4 mm
(6 inches) long.
•In
software applications, set the margins at least 6.4 mm (0.25 inches)
away from the edges of the material.
Letterhead/Preprinted paper
Letterhead/Preprinted materials can be printed with your machine.
Setting the paper size and type
After loading paper in the paper tray, set the paper size and type using the
control panel. These settings will apply to copy and scan modes. For
computer printing, select the paper size and type in the application program
you use on your computer (See "Opening printing preferences" on page 2).
The settings made from the machine driver override the settings on
the control panel.

Using overlay
An overlay is content you store on your hard disk drive that can be
superimposed over any document you print. An overlay is often used to take
the place of letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead, you
can create an overlay containing exactly the same information that is
currently on your letterhead. To print a letter with your company’s
letterhead, you do not need to load preprinted letterhead paper in the
machine, instead you can just print the letterhead overlay on your
document.
