Verification Stamp (option)
Note: This function is available as an option. Consult your dealer if you wish to use it.
When transmitting a document, you can have your fax stamp each document page as it is scanned. After scanning, you can check to see if all documents have been stamped to verify that no double feeds occurred. (A double feed is when two pages are fed through the scanner at once, which means that one of the pages is not scanned.)
To use this function, have your dealer install the Verification Stamp option, and then set Option Setting 29 to ON as explained in Chapter 6, Optional Settings.

Installing the Print Cartridges
Follow the steps below to install or replace the toner and drum cartridges.
The initial starter toner cartridge included with the fax machine can print approximately 3000 letter-size pages (4% coverage of each page).
The replacement toner cartridge (FO-47ND) can print approxi­mately 6000 letter-size pages.
The drum cartridge (FO-47DR) can print approximately 20,000 let­ter-size pages.
1
Press the green release and open the print compartment cover.
Caution!
The fusing unit inside the print compartment becomes very hot during operation. Be careful not to touch the inside of the compart­ment.
2
If you are replacing the toner cartridge, remove the old cartridge
and dispose of it according to local regulations. Go directly to Step 6 if you are only replacing the toner cartridge and not the drum cartridge.
If you are replacing the drum car­tridge but not the toner cartridge, remove the toner cartridge and place it on a sheet of paper.

Remove the new drum cartridge from its packaging.
Caution! Excessive exposure to light will damage the drum car­tridge. Install the cartridge promptly after removing it from its packaging.
5
Insert the drum cartridge into the print compartment, aligning the guides on
the cartridge with the grooves on the sides of the compartment.
Insert the cartridge by aligning the colored “1” labels on the cartridge and the sides of the compartment.

If you are installing a new toner cartridge, remove the new toner
cartridge from its packaging. Shake as indicated by the arrows to distribute the toner evenly within the cartridge.
If the toner is still lumpy after shak­ing, the gears in the cartridge may make a noticeable sound when the print compartment cover is closed after installing the cartridge. This is normal and does not indicate a problem in the machine.
7

Maximum scanning area
The area of the document that the fax machine can scan is slightly smaller than the actual document size. Any letters or graphics outside this area will not be scanned.
Maximum scanning width: 8.3 inches (210 mm)
Maximum scanning length: The length of the document minus
0.16 inches (4 mm) from the top and bottom of the document.
Other restrictions
The scanner cannot recognize yellow, greenish yellow, or light blue
ink.
Ink, glue, and correcting fluid on documents must be dry before
they pass through the document feeder.
All clips, staples, and pins must be removed from documents before
loading in the feeder. If these are not removed, they may damage the machine.
Documents which are patched, taped, torn, smaller than the mini-
mum size, carbon backed, easily smudged, or have a slippery coated surface should be photocopied, and the copy loaded in the feeder.

Documents
Loading the Document
Up to 50 letter-sized pages (20 legal-sized pages) can be placed in the feeder at one time. The pages will automatically feed into the machine starting from the bottom page.
If you need to send or copy more than 50 pages, place the additional
pages gently and carefully in the feeder just before the last page is scanned. Do not try to force them in, as this may cause double-feed­ing or jamming.
If your document consists of several large or thick pages which
must be loaded one at a time, insert each page into the feeder as the previous page is being scanned. Insert gently to prevent double­feeding.
1 Adjust the document guides to the
width of your document.
2 Place the document face down and
push it gently into the document feeder. The top edge of the document should enter the machine first.
The feeder will draw the leading edge of the document into the machine. SEND READY will appear in the display.
Note: When inserting a large number of pages in the feeder, slant the front end of the stack so that the bottom pages enter first.

Adjusting the Resolution and Contrast
If desired, you can adjust the resolution and contrast before sending a document.
Resolution
The fax machine has four resolution settings:
The default resolution setting is STANDARD. If you don’t adjust the resolution before sending a document, the fax machine will automatically use STANDARD resolution.
In order to transmit in FINE or SUPER FINE resolution, the receiv-
ing fax machine must also have that resolution. If it doesn’t, the next best available setting will be used.
The resolution settings are only effective for transmitting and copy-
ing a document. They are not effective for receiving a document.
STANDARD Use STANDARD for ordinary documents.
This setting gives you the fastest and most economical transmission.
FINE Use FINE for documents containing small
letters or fine drawings.
SUPER FINE Use SUPER FINE for documents containing
very small letters or very fine drawings.
HALF TONE Use HALF TONE for photographs and
illustrations. The original will be reproduced in 64 shades of gray.
3 Adjust the resolution and/or contrast
settings (if desired) and then dial the receiving machine as explained in the following sections.

Dual Access
The fax machine features full dual access, which means that you can load a document and dial by automatic dialing even when the fax machine is occupied with another operation. After you dial, your document will be immediately scanned into memory and then transmitted once all previously set operations have been completed.
If more than one document has been scanned into memory for transmission, the documents will be transmitted in the order in which they were scanned. If you have an urgent transmission and do not want to wait until previously scanned documents are transmitted, you can press the PRIORITY key after loading your document. Your document will be transmitted immediately after the current document has completed transmission.
If you don’t want the document to be transmitted from memory, you can press the DOCUMENT key after loading the document. In this case, the document will not be scanned until all previously set operations are completed and the connection to the receiving party is established. (To transmit the document ahead of any documents waiting in memory for transmission, press the PRIORITY key.)
The FO-4650 can hold approximately 56 pages of average content
in memory. The FO-4970 can hold approximately 116 pages. Less pages can be held if any were scanned using fine or halftone resolu­tion.
The amount of memory currently occupied appears as a percentage
("M:00%") in the display.

If the memory becomes full...
If the memory becomes full while a document is being scanned, MEMORY FULL will appear in the display. If Option Setting 23 (Quick On-line) is set to YES, scanning will automatically resume when memory becomes free again as pages are transmitted. (Note: Quick On-Line is initially set to YES at the factory. To change the setting, see Chapter 6, Optional Settings.)
If Quick On-Line is set to NO, MEMORY FULL ERROR will appear in the display. Press the START key or the STOP key as follows:
Press the START key if you want to transmit the pages which have
been stored up to that point in memory. The remaining pages will be ejected from the feeder. After transmission, the memory will be cleared and you can transmit the remaining pages. You will also need to transmit the page which was being scanned when the mem­ory filled up.
Press the STOP key if you want to cancel the entire transmission.
If you do not press the START key or the STOP key within one minute, the transmission will be canceled and the pages already scanned cleared from memory. You will need to retransmit all pages of the document.

Automatic redialing
If you use automatic dialing (including Direct Keypad Dialing) and the line is busy, the fax machine will automatically redial the number. The fax machine is set at the factory to make 2 redialing attempts at intervals of 5 minutes.
To stop automatic redialing, press the CHANGEOVER key to show the telephone line status in the display (make sure that RECALL MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiving party appears on the bottom line to the right), and then press the STOP key.
If desired, you can change the number of redial attempts with Option Setting 6, and the interval at which redialing takes place with Option Setting 7. See Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
Under certain conditions (for example if a person answers the call
on a telephone), automatic redialing may stop before the set number of redialing attempts are made.
Memory Retransmission
If a line error occurs during any type of memory transmission, your fax will automatically redial the number and attempt to complete the transmission. Retransmission will begin from the page which was being transmitted when the error occurred.
The fax machine has been set at the factory to make 10 attempts at retransmission, with each attempt made immediately after the previous attempt. If desired, you can change the number of attempts by changing Option Setting 17, and have the fax wait a selected number of minutes between each attempt by changing Option Setting
18. See Chapter 6, Optional Settings.
To stop retransmission, press the CHANGEOVER key to show the
telephone line status in the display (make sure that RETRY MODE appears on the top line of the display and the number of the receiv­ing party appears on the bottom line to the right), and then press the STOP key.

Confidential transmission
When you send a document using the Confidential function, the receiving machine holds it in memory instead of immediately printing it out. When the receiving party enters the correct passcode, the document is printed out.
Confidential transmission is only possible when the receiving
machine is a Sharp model with confidential reception capability.
To use this function, your name and fax number (OWN PASS-
CODE) must be entered in your fax machine as explained in Chap­ter 1.
Some fax machines have multiple mailboxes for receiving confi-
dential faxes. If you are sending to a machine with multiple confi­dential mailboxes, contact the receiving party in advance for the appropriate mailbox number.

Relay Request
Relay Request allows you to send a document to another fax machine and have that fax machine in turn broadcast the document to a group of other fax machines. This function is useful when the relay fax machine is closer to the end fax machines than your fax machine, as it reduces telephone line costs.
Important:
Relay Request can only be used if the intermediate relay machine is a Sharp machine having the Relay Broadcast function.
Storing a relay group
To make a relay request, you must first store a relay group. This consists of the fax number of the intermediate relay machine and the fax numbers of the end receiving machines. Up to 10 different relay groups can be stored.
Fax numbers of the end receiving machines can be entered as Rapid
Key numbers, Speed Dial numbers, and/or Group Key numbers if they have been programmed as such in the relay machine (not in your fax machine). Check with the operator of the relay machine for these numbers.
The total number of end receiving machines which can be entered
varies with the model used as the intermediate relay machine. Check with the operator of the relay machine to find out how many receiving machines can be entered.
A maximum of 400 digit spaces are available in your fax machine’s
memory for storing the numbers of end receiving machines. The number of spaces occupied by each number depends on what kind of number it is:

Polling
Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document to your machine without operator assistance. In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine, initiates the transmission. You can use your fax machine to both poll and be polled by others.
Polling others
To poll another fax machine, follow the steps below.
If desired, you can dial more than one fax number to receive docu-
ments consecutively from a group of fax machines (this is called "Serial Polling").
1 Press the FUNCTION key and 8.
The display will show:
2 Dial the number(s) of the fax
machine(s) you want to poll using one (or more) of the following methods:
Press one or more Rapid Keys.
Enter one or more Speed Dial
numbers, pressing the SPEED DIAL key before each number. (If
you enter less than 2 digits on the FO-4650, or 3 digits on the FO­4970, press the START key to complete the entry.)
Press one or more Group Keys.

Serial Polling using a Group Key
If the fax machines you want to poll have all been programmed into one Group Key, you can poll them by simply pressing that Group Key. (The procedure for programming Group Keys is explained in Broadcasting in this chapter.)
Make sure no documents are in the feeder before you press the
Group Key.
Being polled (Memory polling)
To let another fax machine poll your fax machine, you must first store the document(s) in memory using the following procedure. Transmission will take place when the other fax machine calls your fax machine and activates polling. You can choose whether to allow polling only once, or an unlimited number of times. In the latter case, your fax machine can be used as an electronic "bulletin board".
Multiple documents can be stored for memory polling. To add a
document to others already stored, simply repeating the storing pro­cedure (note that if Department Control is activated, documents cannot be added by a department other than that which stored the first document). When polling is initiated, the polling machine will receive all documents stored.
If you allow polling only once, the document(s) will be automati-
cally cleared from memory after polling. If you allow polling an unlimited number of times, the document will remain in memory until you clear it as explained in the following section, Clearing a document.

Polling Security
Polling Security allows you to prevent unauthorized polling of your fax. When this function is activated, polling will only take place when one of the following conditions is met:
The fax number of the polling fax machine has been stored in your
fax’s list of permitted fax numbers (called "passcode numbers"). The polling fax must also have its fax number programmed in itself, as described in Entering Your Name and Fax Number in Chapter 1.
A System number has been programmed in the polling fax machine
which matches your fax’s System number or one of your ID num­bers.
An ID number has been programmed in the polling fax machine
which matches your fax’s System number.

System and ID numbers are 4-digit numbers which provide you with an alternate means of giving and receiving polling permission when you don’t want to use fax numbers. The steps for programming these numbers are described in the following pages.
Note: System and ID numbers can only be used if the other fax machine is also a Sharp machine.
Turning Polling Security on and off
Polling Security is turned on or off with Option Setting 8. This procedure is explained in Chapter 6, Optional Settings.

Power Save Mode can be turned on and off manually by pressing
the POWER SAVE key.
If desired, you can also set Power Save Mode to turn on and off
automatically at specified times of the day, on specified days of the week, and on specified dates during the year.
Note: If the memory becomes full while Power Save Mode is on, the fax machine will automatically turn on the laser printer, print the faxes received to memory, and then return to Power Save Mode.
Note: Power Save Mode cannot be turned on when the Print Hold func­tion is on.
