Print settings

You can set three parameters for printing received fax messages:
Print reduction rate
Reduction margin
Paper save function
You set all three in the same procedure, discussed on next page. Following is a expla-
nation for each:
Print reduction rate
Print reduction l e ts you set the machine to reduce large incoming documents to a size
t h a t f i ts the paper in your machine. (This setting doesn t affect copies you may make
with your machine.)
Below are the options for the print reduction rate for fax reception:
Setting What it does
Automatically reduces printouts at variable rates down to a
minimum of 50%. Tries to reduce printout to fit on one sheet of
Auto
your selected paper size. If it can t, print the image at 100% size
on two or more pages.
Does not reduce documents. (Due to the sender s
100%
two pages when receiving a one-page fax document.)
Reduction margin
Your machine s reduction margin is measured in millimeters (mm). Wel l d e f i n e reduc-
tion margin by explaining how it s used:
When a fax message enters your machine s electronic brain, the machine measures the
message s length and compa r e s i t t o ( a ) the length of your selected paper (not include
the print margins) plus (b) the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming
message is shorter than ( a ) and ( b ) put together, your machine prints the message on
just one sheet.
I f i t s longer, your machine prints the message on more than one sheet.
Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 4 0 m m w i l l p r i n t
most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and then, only if
you have problems with it, select different settings.
Half-page reception
Half-page reception can conserve paper if some of the faxes you receive are half-page,
memo-sized messages. When activated, this feature tells the machine to combine two
of these half-page receptions onto a single sheet. Half-page reception only combines
half-page messages sent back-to-back during the same transmission. It won t combine
two half-page faxes from separate transmissions.
