1. INSTALLATION

Introduction

This manual describes how to use the fax function of the AR-150 series.

Part names and functions shared with the copy function (for example, the misfeed indicator and add paper indicator), are described in the copier operation manual. For more information, please read the copier operation manual.

Choosing a Location

All electrical equipment is potentially dangerous if not installed and operated correctly. Make sure that you meet the following requirements when you set up or move the unit.

•The unit must be installed on a level surface.

•Use only the rated voltage

from a properly grounded wall socket.

•Keep the unit away from areas that are:

-Dusty or smoky

-Damp or humid

-Poorly ventilated

-In view of windows or extremely bright light

-In direct sunlight

-Subject to other extreme conditions

•Provide ample room for easy access to the front, back, and sides of the unit.

•Leave enough space around the ventilation outlets for heat from the fan to dissipate properly. Blocking these outlets could cause the unit to overheat, which can cause

serious damage to the internal parts.

•Use of extension cords is not recommended.

Connections

Connecting the Telephone Line Cord

Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the jack on the unit marked “TEL LINE.” Plug the other side into the wall jack (using the provided adaptator, if necessary).

For Germany, please connect the cable from the fax unit with the wired plug connector code (F) with the wire down into the wall socket (TAE 6) code (F).

The fax unit can be used as single device and in combination (in serial connection) with approved terminal equipment(s).

To connect an extension telephone or an answering machine, plug the extension line cord in the provided wall jak adaptator.(See “Connecting Other Devices” in this chapter for details.)

Note: If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone lines. Surge protectors can be purchased from your dealer or at most telephone specialty stores.

Final Preparations

Connecting Other Devices

If desired, an answering machine or external telephone can be connected to the unit by plugging the external line cord in the external jack of the wall jack (wall socket code “N” for Germany) or in the provided adaptator.

•Connecting an answering machine to the unit allows you to receive both voice and fax messages when you are out. To use this feature, first change the outgoing message of your answering machine, and then set the reception mode of the unit to “A.M.” (Answering Machine mode) when you go out.

The outgoing message of your answering machine should be changed to inform callers who want to send a fax to press their FAX START key.

Comments:

1.It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is too long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic dialing.

2.Your callers can even leave a voice message and send a fax message on the same call. Modify your outgoing message to explain that this can be done by pressing their FAX START key after leaving their voice message.

•You can connect an extension phone to the unit to make and receive calls like any other extension phone on your line. Even if you pick up the extension phone and hear a fax tone, the unit will automatically cut in and take over the line.

Note: The Remote Recepion function is initially set to “ON”.

About the Liquid Crystal Display

The unit is equipped with a two-line liquid crystal display (LCD) on the operation panel for displaying various messages and settings during operation. This LCD can display up to 20 characters on each line. When the unit is idle, the LCD shows the date, time, and the stand-by memory available.

Example:

Located to the upper right of the operation panel, the LCD contrast dial controls the contrast of the display.Turning the dial to the right darkens the LCD. Turning the dial to the left lightens the LCD.

Using the Arrow Keys

The left and right arrow ( ) keys on the operation panel of the unit are very useful for scrolling through the various function lists and settings. Once you have pressed the FUNCTION key, you can scroll through the eight functions as desired. (See the Function Table at the end of the Quick Reference Guide for an at-a-glance view of all the unit’s functions and settings.) Pressing the ENTER key chooses the displayed function. For many of the function lists, you can then use the arrow keys again to scroll through the settings.

Selecting the Reception Mode

Your unit has three modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:

•AUTO mode:

Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your telephone line. The unit will automatically answer all calls and receive incoming faxes.

•MANUAL mode:

This is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls if you have an extension phone.To have true manual mode, the unit must be set to not answer while in MANUAL mode (see “Setting the Number of Rings for Manual Reception” on the next page).You can also receive faxes; however, all calls must first be answered by picking up the receiver on the extension phone or telephone connected to the same line.

•A.M. mode:

Select this mode when an answering machine is connected to the unit and you want the answering machine to answer all calls. This allows you to receive both voice messages and faxes while you are out.

To set the reception mode, press the RECEPTION MODE key until the light next to the desired mode comes on.
