Quick Links

Dear customer,

The fax machine you have purchased prints on normal paper by
means of an ink film. It also enables you to use additional devices,
such as cordless phones. Your fax machine is also equipped with
functions that facilitate the installation and use.
Sending and receiving fax messages
To send a fax message that is more than one page, you can place
up to ten pages into the document feeder. In case you run out of
paper, faxes are stored until you print them out.
Scanner
Your fax machine comes with a detachable scanner. This enables
you to fax or copy documents that cannot be fed into the fax
machine, such as pages out of books and magazines.
In addition, this fax machine provides copier features like: multi-
page copy, document enlargement and reduction as well as con-
trast adjustment, which are typical for regular copy machines.
Additional (cordless) telephones
Your fax machine fully supports the use of additional devices,
such as telephones, cordless telephones, external answering ma-
chines or any other telecommunication devices suitable. You can
transfer calls from the fax machine to a (cordless) telephone and
vice versa. You can also start fax reception from an additional
phone or stop the built-in answering machine—if your fax ma-
chine has such a device—to start a telephone conversation.

Help key

If you press HELP/INSTALL twice, your fax machine will print
out a page describing the basic functions. It also provides infor-
mation about additional help pages concerning fax machine use.
Quick and easy installation
EASY INSTALL will guide you through the installation of your
fax machine. Press HELP/INSTALL for more than two seconds
and a sheet will be printed out. Using this sheet together with the
display prompts to aid the installation of your machine. Once
you have gone through these steps the machine will automatically
configure itself.
Fax switch and modes SMU
The fax switch separates fax and voice messages. For example, it
can receive fax messages silently, i. e. without ringing to avoid
causing a disturbance.
The operating modes S and M for day and night operation
allow you to decide on different modes during the day and at
night; how often the machine should ring prior to receipt of faxes
or before the answering machine is turned on; e. g. during day-
time it is assumed that calls should ring. After a set time the fax
reception is turned on and messages can be left on the (internal or
external) answering machine. At night it is assumed that distur-
bances are minimised. Faxes are then received silently and calls
ring more quietly.
The timer U makes your fax machine switch automatically be-
tween S and M modes. The built-in clock makes your fax ma-
chine switch to M at 10 pm and back to S at 6 am. Of course
you can change these times according to your individual needs or
switch off the timer. The display will show the current settings.
! Never expose your fax machine to rain or any other
form of moisture, in order to prevent the risk of
electric shock or fire.
! In a thunderstorm, disconnect the fax machine from
both the mains and the telephone line. If you are
unable to disconnect the fax machine, do not use it
and do not telephone due to the danger of lightning
strike and/or damage to the device.
