Setting the print parameters

You can set two parameters for printing received fax messages:
• Print reduction rate
• Reduction margin
Print reduction rate
Print reduction lets you set the machine to reduce a large incoming document to a
size which will fit on your paper. Copy reduction lets you reduce the size of copies
made on your fax machine. Here are the options for both print reduction and copy
reduction settings:

What it does
Automatically reduces printouts at variable rates down to a
minimum of 75%. Tries to reduce printout to fit on one sheet of

your selected paper size; if cannot, prints the image at 100% size
on two or more pages.
Performs no reduction. (Due to the sender's

pages when receiving a one-page fax document. See 97%, below.)
Reduces an original so that the final printout of a one-page docu-

will be only one page long, despite the

Turns legal-sized originals into US letter-sized printed copies.
For best results ...
The printout may omit a small bit of the image at the page break if the
machine tries to reduce a legal-sized page onto letter-sized paper at any set-
ting other than 75%. So whenever possible, load the correct paper size
before receiving a fax (or making a copy) of that size.

Reduction margin
Your fax machine's reduction margin is measured in millimeters (mm).
When a fax message enters your machine's electronic brain, the machine measures
the message's length and compares it to (a) the length of your selected paper plus
(b) the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming message is shorter
than the sum of (a) and (b), your machine prints the message on just one sheet;
otherwise, it prints the message on more than one sheet.
Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 40mm will
print most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and
then, only if you have problems with it, select different settings.
