Telephone Company Information

FCC IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

The Ringer Equivalence Number and FCC Registration Number for this equipment 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.

RINGER EQUIVALENCE NUMBER

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 Number of the equipment on your telephone line should be less than 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.

WARNING

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 Samsung FAX machine is not designed to be connected to a digital PBX system.

• Special features, such as “Call Waiting”, may interrupt FAX service, and we suggest that these services not be installed on the FAX line.

• If you intended to use a computer modem or fax modem on the same phone line as your FAX 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 FAX 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 equipment may not be used on coin service or party lines.

• This telephone provides magnetic coupling to hearing aids.

Guidelines for the paper

When selecting or loading paper, envelopes, or other special media, keep these guidelines in mind:

• Attempting to print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper can cause paper jams and poor print quality.

• Use cut-sheet paper only. You cannot use multiparty paper.

• Use only high quality, copier grade paper. Avoid paper with embossed lettering, perforations, or textures that are too smooth or too rough.

• Colored paper should be of the same high quality as white photocopy paper. The pigments must withstand the printer ’s fusing temperature of 392

F (200 oC) for 0.1 second without deterioration. Do not use paper

with a colored coating that was added after the paper was produced.

• Pre-printed forms must be printed with non-flammable, heat-resistant inks that do not melt, vaporize, or release hazardous emissions when subject to the printer ’s approximately 392

F (200 oC) fusing temperature

for 0.1 second.

• Store paper in its ream wrapper until ready to use. Place cartons on pallets or shelves, not on the floor. Do not place heavy objects on top of the paper, whether it is packaged or unpackaged. Keep paper away from moisture, or other conditions that can cause it to wrinkle or curl.

• During storage, moisture-proof wraping (any plastic container or bag) should be used to prevent dust and moisture from contaminating your paper.

• Always use paper and other media that conform with those listed under ‘Specifications’ on page 4.7.

• When you choose envelopes, use only well-constructed envelopes with sharp, and well creased folds.

- DO NOT use envelopes with clasps and snaps.

- DO NOT use envelopes with windows, coated lining, self-stick adhesives, or other synthetic materials.

- DO NOT use damaged or poorly made envelopes.
