FINAL PREPARATIONS

CONNECTING OTHER DEVICES

If desired, an answering machine or external telephone can be connected to the machine through the telephone jack, labeled "TEL," on the rear of the machine.

● Connecting an answering machine to the machine 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 machine to "A.M." (Answering Machine mode) when you go out.

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 [START] key ( ) after leaving their voice message.

● You can connect an extension phone to the machine 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 machine will automatically cut in and take over the line. Note, however, if you also have a PC modem on the same line, you must turn on the Remote Reception function, and deactivate the Fax Signal Receive function. See "SETTING UP THE MACHINE FOR USE WITH A PC MODEM" (p.37) and "USING THE REMOTE RECEPTION FUNCTION" (p.38).

SELECTING THE TRANSMISSION MODE

The machine has two modes for sending faxes: memory transmission and direct transmission. To change modes, press the [MEMORY] key. The MEMORY indicator lights up when memory transmission is selected, and goes off when direct transmission is selected.

Transmission takes place as follows in each mode:

Memory transmission (the MEMORY indicator is lit)

When a fax is sent from the SPF/RSPF and there are no previously stored fax jobs and no job in progress (the telephone line is not being used), dialing and scanning begin at the same time. Each page is transmitted after it is scanned. This transmission method is called Quick Online transmission. If there are previously stored fax jobs or a job in progress, or the fax is being sent from the document glass, the fax is temporarily scanned into memory before transmission.

Direct transmission (the MEMORY indicator is off)

The fax is sent directly after the destination is dialed and the connection established. The machine memory is not used for direct transmission, and thus direct transmission is possible even when the memory is full.

When a fax is sent by transmission reservation (p.69), broadcast transmission (p.70), broadcasting using a Group key (p.71),or timer transmission (p.78), the fax is scanned into memory before transmission.

• A fax job cannot be stored while a direct transmission is in progress.

• Only one page can be sent from the document glass by direct transmission.

• A subsequent function cannot be used while a direct transmission is in progress. Transmission reservation (p.69), broadcast transmission (p.70), broadcasting using a Group key (p.71), or timer transmission (p.78)

SELECTING THE RECEPTION MODE

Your machine 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 machine will automatically answer all calls and receive incoming faxes.

● MAN. mode: This is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls if you have an extension phone. To have true manual mode, the machine must be set to not answer while in MAN. mode (see "SETTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS FOR MANUAL RECEPTION" (p.29)). You can also receive faxes; however, all calls must first be answered by picking up the receiver on the extension phone.

● A.M. mode: Select this mode when an answering machine is connected to the machine 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 select the reception mode, press the [RECEPTION MODE] key until the desired reception mode appears in the display.

For more information on reception modes, refer to RECEIVING FAXES (p.62).

USING THE MACHINE WITH AN ANSWERING MACHINE

QUIET DETECT TIME

Quiet Detect Time is the function that enables the machine to be used along with an answering machine for both phone messages and faxes. After the answering machine has answered, any duration of silence longer than a certain threshold time will prompt the machine to take over the line and prepare to receive a fax. The Quiet Detect Time can be set from 00 to 10 seconds, following the procedure below.

Press the [MENU] key.

Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "6:A.M. MODE" appears, and then press the [OK] key.

Press the [MENU] key. Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "1:QUIET DETECT TIME" appears, and then press the [OK] key.

• The machine has been set at the factory for a Quiet Detect Time of 5 seconds, which gives the best performance for most answering machines. However, you may have to adjust the Quiet Detect Time depending on your answering machine’s disconnect time, the time before the machine disconnects the line after a period of silence. If your machine has a short disconnect time, you may have to shorten the Quiet Detect Time. However, if the machine is interrupting callers in the middle of messages, you should set a longer Quiet Detect Time.

• If there is a pause at the end of your answering machine message, make sure that the Quiet Detect Time is longer than this pause.

• Setting Quiet Detect Time to 00 turns the function off. However, the machine will not be able to receive faxes sent using manual dialing (picking up the receiver, dialing the number, and pressing the [START] key ( ) when the fax tone is heard).

• If your answering machine is set to answer calls after more rings than the machine's number of rings setting, the machine will always answer first and thereby prevent callers from leaving messages in the answering machine.

Note

Page 50

INITIAL SETTINGS

If Quiet Detect Time is not working properly...

With some answering machines, there is simply no Quiet Detect Time that will allow both reception of faxes and uninterrupted voice messages. Even in this case, however, you can set up the machine to receive both phone and fax messages from callers on touch-tone lines. Follow this procedure:

1. Set the Quiet Detect Time to 00.

2. Alter your phone message to tell callers that they can send a fax by pressing the Remote Reception Number (factory set to 5), followed by the " " key twice.

ANSWERING MACHINE BACKUP

There may be times when the tape on your answering machine becomes full, or when the answering machine itself malfunctions. It is still possible to receive faxes even under these conditions, by turning on the Auto Receive function. The machine will automatically answer all calls after five rings. To use this function, follow the procedure below.

Press the [MENU] key.

Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "6:A.M. MODE" appears, and then press the [OK] key.

Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "2:AUTO RECEIVE" appears, and then press the [OK] key.

CHOOSING SUITABLE MEDIA

UNSUITABLE ORIGINALS

General guidelines:

● All clips, staples, and pins should be removed from originals before they are used. If these are not removed, they may damage the machine.

● Ink, glue, and correction fluid on originals must be completely dry before using the originals with the machine.

● Originals that are in some way dangerous to the internal mechanisms of the machine should not be used.

● When faxing, any writing on the originals that is yellow, yellowish-green, or light blue cannot be transmitted.

The following kinds of originals should not be used:

● Originals with a glossy coating

● Originals with static electricity

● Originals with tears, folds, or curls

● Originals that have become stuck together and cannot be easily separated

● Originals with holes, windows, or perforations

● Transparency films, tracing paper, or other transparencies

● Originals with plastic or metallic coatings

• SHARP does not accept any responsibility for the loss or damage of originals.

• It is a good idea to copy valuable originals on a flat-bed copier before using them with the machine.

• Scanning an original that is longer than 500 mm will result in a misfeed.

HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION

The stand alone fax component of your machine offers a range of sophisticated features that allow you to control image quality, reception mode, broadcasting, polling, and transmission priorities. Functions such as sending original(s) from memory and substituting reception into memory are possible, due to the large memory capacity.

SENDING ORIGINALS

SETTING THE ORIGINAL

This section describes setting original(s) in the SPF/RSPF or on the document glass.

When Using the SPF/RSPF:

Confirm that there are no original(s) on the document glass and that copying is not in progress, then gently close the SPF/RSPF.

Adjust the original guides to the width of your original(s).

Place the original(s) face up and push it gently into the document feeder tray. The top edge of the original(s) should enter the fax first.

There are two ways to send the fax:

• To scan the original into memory, then dial and transmit, continue with the "DIALING AND TRANSMITTING" section.

• To dial and transmit the original directly without first scanning it into memory, press the [MEMORY] key. Continue with the "DIALING AND TRANSMITTING" section.

Original face up

HOW TO USE THE FAX FUNCTION

RESOLUTION

To do this, press the [RESOLUTION] key one or more times until the desired resolution settings appear in the display, and then press the [OK] key.

Your fax has five resolution settings:

• STANDARD Use STANDARD for ordinary originals. This setting gives you the fastest transmission.

• FINE Use FINE for improved reproduction, especially with originals containing small letters or fine drawings.

• SUPER FINE Use SUPER FINE when you need the highest quality of reproduction.

• FINE (HALF TONE) Use FINE (HALF TONE) if your original is a photograph or has gradations of color (such as a color original). This setting will produce a clearer image than Fine used alone.

• S. FINE (HALF TONE) Use S.FINE (HALF TONE) if your original is a photograph or has gradations of color (such as a color original). This setting will produce a clearer image than Super fine used alone.

In order to transmit with FINE or SUPER FINE resolution, the receiving fax machine must also have that resolution. If it doesn't, the next best available setting will be used.

If you do not change the setting, the original will automatically be sent in STANDARD mode.

CONTRAST

The fax automatically controls the contrast, but you can also control it manually. To do this, press the [CONTRAST] key one or more times until the desired contrast settings appear in the display, and then press the [OK] key. The three contrast levels are MEDIUM, DARK, and LIGHT.

RECEIVING FAXES

You can set the machine to one of three modes of reception, AUTO, MAN. , or A.M. (Answering Machine). To select the reception mode, press the [RECEPTION MODE] key until the desired reception mode appears in the display.

USING AUTO MODE

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

USING MAN. MODE

MAN. is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls if you have an extension phone. To have true manual

mode, the machine must be set to not answer while in MANUAL mode (See "SETTING THE NUMBER OF RINGS FOR MANUAL RECEPTION" (p.29)). 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.

USING A.M. MODE

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

SPECIAL FUNCTIONS

MEMORY

Your machine has a memory area that can be used to store both incoming faxes and outgoing originals.

● Approximately 120 pages of average content can be held in memory for transmission. Less can be held if any of the pages were scanned using fine or superfine resolution.

Substitute Reception into Memory

This is a back-up function that is automatically activated if your fax runs out of paper, the TD cartridge needs replacement (See the Operation Manual.), or the paper jams.

• If you received originals in memory because the fax ran out of paper, be sure to add paper which is the same size as the paper previously used. If not, the original print-out size may not match the size of the printing paper.

Take care that the remaining memory does not become 7% or you cannot receive any more faxes.

Note

Page 69

DATA TRANSFER

If there is a problem with the machine, you can use the Data Transfer function to have received faxes read into memory and then sent to a different fax machine for printing. This function is used when you cannot print received faxes, for example when the machine runs out of toner, or a misfeed occurs. To use this function, the fax number of the transfer destination machine must be programmed.

TRANSMISSION RESERVATION

When your fax is busy receiving an original or transmitting an original from memory, you can "reserve" a transmission by setting the original (either in the SPF/RSPF or on the document glass), reading it into memory, and entering the fax number. Once the current operation is completed, your fax will automatically dial the number and transmit the original saving you from having to wait.

When Using the SPF/RSPF:

Confirm that there are no originals on the document glass and that copying is not in progress, then gently close the SPF/RSPF.

Adjust the original guides to the width of your original.

Place the original face up and push it gently into the SPF/RSPF. The top edge of the original should enter the fax first.

Adjust the resolution and/or contrast settings if desired.

Enter the number of the receiving machine using one of the following methods:

• Press a Rapid key. If you press a Rapid Key, the next step is not necessary. The number will be dialed once the current operation is completed, and transmission will begin once the connection is made.

POLLING TRANSMISSION (MEMORY POLLING)

This function is used to transmit an original that has been scanned into memory to a fax machine that polls your fax machine. If desired, polling fax machines can be restricted to machines whose fax numbers have been programmed in your machine ("RESTRICTING POLLING MACHINES (POLLING SECURITY)" on page 76).

To let other fax machines poll your fax machine, the original to be transmitted must be scanned into memory and the reception mode of your machine must be set to "Auto". You can select whether polling transmission will take place once or repeatedly. If once is selected, the original that was scanned into memory will be automatically deleted after polling transmission takes place. If repeated polling transmission is selected, the original will remain in memory until it is deleted. More than one original can be scanned into polling memory (all originals will transmitted when your machine is polled). Only one memory polling operation can be set up, and the polling machine must be capable of polling reception.

The original(s) in polling memory will be transmitted when a fax machine calls your fax machine and requests polling transmission. Automatic fax reception is possible while your machine is on polling transmission standby.

Setting up polling transmission:

Place the original in the SPF/RSPF or on the document glass and perform the following steps:

Press the [MENU] key.

Press the [ ] key ( ) or [ ] key ( ) until "7:MEMORY POLL MODE" appears, and then press the [OK] key.
