Chapter 6. SENDING FAXES

A) DOCUMENT BASICS

The Size of Your Documents

216mm (8.5")
Maximum
The size of the documents you want to send by fax should not be larger (or smaller) than
your fax machine can accommodate. The documents should each be between 148 and 216
mm (5.8 and 8.5 inches) wide and between 150 and 600 mm (5.9 and 23.6 inches) long.
There is generally a gap of 4 mm adjacent to each vertical and horizontal edge of the original
page to be transmitted, where no image can be scanned. Please therefore ensure that no
image data are present within these 4 mm "dead zones".
The maximum width of the scanned area is 208 mm (8.2 inches).

How to Insert the Document

To send a fax, first insert the document you wish to send, face down, in
the document feeder. The top edge of the document should go in first, or
the fax will be received upside-down.
To prevent the document from feeding in crooked, adjust the paper guides
to fit the width of the document.
