Important safety information

Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl, kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine.

Unplug the machine from the power outlet and telephone jack and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur:

-Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water.

-The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.

-The power cord is frayed or damaged.

-The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.

Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord.

This machine must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty.

3

Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative.

Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls.

Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically designed for wet locations.

Never touch bare telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.

The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be easily accessible.

Important:

This facsimile machine is not designed for use on a line which has call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the fax machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile messages.

This facsimile machine is not compatible with digital telephone systems.

Points to keep in mind when setting up

Do not place the machine in direct sunlight.

Keep dust away from the machine.

About condensation

Do not place the machine near heaters or air conditioners.

Keep the area around the machine clear.

If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the machine.

10

Connections

Connecting the Handset

Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.

The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into either jack.

Make sure the handset cord goes into the jack marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!

1. Installation

Use the handset to make ordinary phone calls, or to transmit and receive faxes manually.

11

Connections

Connecting the power cord

Plug the power cord into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded AC (3-prong) outlet.

Caution!

Do not plug the power cord into any other kind of outlet. This will damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty.

The machine does not have a power on/off switch, so the power is turned on and off by simply plugging in or unplugging the power cord.

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 at most telephone specialty stores.

12

Connections

Connecting the telephone line cord

Insert one end of the line cord into the jack on the back of the machine marked TEL. LINE. Insert the other end into a standard (RJ11C) single-line wall telephone jack.

Be sure to insert the line into the

TEL. LINE jack.

Do not insert it into the TEL. SET jack.

Loading the Imaging Film

Loading the Imaging Film

Your fax uses a roll of imaging film to create printed text and images. The print head in the fax applies heat to the imaging film to transfer ink to the paper. Follow the steps below to load or replace the film..

The initial starter roll of imaging film included with your fax can print about 30 letter-size pages.

When replacing the film, use a roll of Sharp UX-3CR imaging film. One roll can print about 100 letter-size pages.

Note: If there is paper in the paper tray, pull the paper release plate forward and remove the paper before loading the imaging film.

1 Open the operation panel by grasping the finger hold and pulling up.

2 Pull the green release on the right side of the machine forward, and open the print compartment cover.

Loading Printing Paper

Loading Printing Paper

You can load letter or legal size paper in the paper tray. The maximum number of sheets depends on the weight and size of the paper you are loading.

Paper from 16 to 20 lbs. (60 to 75 g/m2):

 

Letter size: 60 sheets

Legal size: 30 sheets

Paper from 20 to 24 lbs. (75 to 90 g/m2):

 

Letter size: 50 sheets

Legal size: 25 sheets

1 Fan the paper, and then tap the edge against a flat surface to even the stack.

2 Pull the paper release plate toward you.

3 Insert the stack of paper into the tray, print side down.

If paper remains in the tray, take it out and combine it into a single stack with the new paper before adding the new paper.

Important:

Be sure to load the paper so that printing takes place on the print side of the paper. Printing on the reverse side may result in poor print quality.
