Setting the Reception Mode

The machine has the following modes for receiving incoming faxes:

FAX mode: Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your line. The machine automatically answers all calls and receives incoming faxes.

TEL mode:

This mode is the most convenient for receiving phone calls. Faxes can also be received; however, all calls must

first be answered by picking up the machine's handset.

TEL/FAX (T/F) mode:

This mode is convenient for receiving both faxes and voice calls. The machine answers all calls on a preset number of rings. If the machine detects that a call is a voice call (including a manually dialled fax), it will make a special ringing sound to alert you to answer. If the machine detects that the call is an automatically dialled fax, it will begin reception.

A.M. () mode (FO-A760 only): Select this mode when you go out and

FO-P710 only: Using the machine with an existing answering system

If you have an answering system (in a phone or other device) connected to the same line as the machine and you want to receive both faxes and voice messages while you are out, follow these steps.

1 Make sure that the machine’s Fax

Signal Receive setting is set to YES (page 28). (This enables the machine to automatically begin fax reception if it detects a fax tone after the answering system answers a call.)

2 Make sure your answering

system’s greeting is no longer than 20 seconds, and insert several seconds of silence at the beginning of the greeting. (This will allow the machine to clearly detect fax tones when a fax is being sent.)

3 When you go out, make sure the

machine is set to TEL mode (press

until TEL appears in the

display

). (The machine should not automatically answer calls; only the answering system should answer.)

Reception to Memory

The machine is set to initially receive faxes to memory and then automatically print them out.

This allows reception to take place even if there is no paper in the paper tray, or when a problem occurs that prevents printing such as no imaging film or a paper jam. Received faxes are held in memory until paper is loaded in the tray or the printing problem is resolved. After you load paper or otherwise resolve the

problem, press to print the

faxes.

♦ When there is no paper in the tray and

a fax has been received to memory, [ADD PAPER & ]/[PRESS START KEY] will appear. If a printing problem has occurred, a message indicating the problem will appear in the display.

♦ Received faxes are automatically

cleared from memory after they are printed out.

♦ If the memory becomes full, fax

reception will not be possible (see “Memory capacity” on page 2 for the number of pages that can be held in memory).

About the lithium battery:

The machine uses a lithium battery to retain settings and information programmed in the machine when the power is turned off. Battery power is consumed primarily when the power is off. With the power kept continuously off, the life of the battery is about 5 years. If the battery dies, have your dealer or retailer replace it. Do not try to replace it yourself.

Problems and Solutions

Line error

Problem Solution

COM ERROR XX appears in the display. (XX is a number used by service technicians to diagnose problems)

A line error occurs when your machine cannot communicate correctly with another fax machine. The error is usually due to a problem on the phone line. Try faxing again. If unsuccessful, check the following:

• Check the connection. The cord from the TEL. LINE socket to the wall socket should be no longer than two meters.

• Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the same telephone line.

• Check with the other party to make sure their fax machine is functioning properly.

• Have your telephone line checked for line noise.

• Try connecting the machine to a different phone line.

• If the error persists, the machine may need service.
