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

Note: The FO-375 has a built-in anti-curl mechanism that will help to
reduce paper curling problems. The anti-curl mechanism is more effective
at the beginning of the paper roll and less effective toward the end.
Replacing the fax paper
When the paper runs out, OUT OF PAPER will appear in the display.
Reception and copying will no longer be possible. To replace the paper, first
take out the old roll, then load the new roll as described above.
To assure a long life for your fax and obtain the best reproduction quality, we
recommend that you use the following Sharp fax (thermal) paper which is
available from your dealer:
FO-40PR THERMAL PAPER (50 m roll)
♦ The use of any other paper may result in poor copy quality and excessive
build-up of residue on the head. This is due to the different thermal
reactive characteristics of each manufacturer’s paper.
Handling fax paper
Do not unpack the paper until you are ready to use it. It may become
discoloured if:
♦ It is stored at high humidity or high temperature.
♦ It is exposed to direct sunlight.
♦ It comes in contact with glue, thinner, or a freshly copied blueprint.
♦ A rubber eraser or adhesive tape is used on it, or it is scratched.

Selecting the Reception Mode
Selecting the Reception Mode
Your fax has four modes for receiving incoming calls and faxes:
TEL mode:
This is the most convenient mode for receiving phone calls. You can also
receive faxes; however, all calls must first be answered by picking up the
fax’s handset or an extension phone connected to the same line.
FAX mode:
Select this mode when you only want to receive faxes on your line. The fax
will automatically answer all calls and receive incoming faxes.
TEL/FAX mode:
This mode is convenient for receiving both faxes and voice calls. When a call
comes in, the fax will detect whether it is a voice call (including manually
dialled fax transmissions), or an automatically dialled fax. If it is a voice call,
the fax will make a special ringing sound to alert you to answer. If it is an
automatically dialled fax transmission, reception will begin automatically.
ANS. mode:
Select this mode when an answering machine is connected as explained in
Chapter 6, Answering Machine Connection, and you want the answering
machine to answer all calls. This allows you to receive both voice messages
and faxes while you are out.
Setting the reception mode

When the reception mode is set to TEL/FAX, your fax automatically answers
all calls on 2 rings. After answering, your fax monitors the line for about 5
seconds to see if a fax tone is being sent.
♦ If your fax detects a fax tone (this means that the call is an automatically
dialled fax), it will automatically begin reception of the incoming
document.
♦ If your fax doesn’t detect a fax tone (this means that the call is a voice
call or manually dialled fax), it will make a ringing sound (called pseudo
ringing) for 15 seconds to alert you to answer. If you don’t answer
within this time, your fax will send a fax tone to the other machine to
allow the calling party to send a fax manually if they desire.
Comments:
• Only the fax will alert you to voice calls or manually dialled faxes by pseudo
ringing. An extension phone connected to the same line will not ring after the
connection has been made.
• The duration of pseudo ringing can be adjusted with Option Setting 8. See

Making Telephone Calls
Comments:
• While the handset of the fax is lifted (off hook), an extension phone
connected directly to the fax cannot be used to speak with the other party.
• The fax may interrupt a voice call received on an extension phone if the
reception mode is set to ANS and there is a period of silence during the
conversation. If you are on a tone dial phone, you can prevent this by
pressing any three keys on the phone immediately after you answer. (Note:
Do not enter the code to activate fax reception: 5,
,
.)
Chain Dialling
After lifting the handset, you can dial any combination of Normal Dialling,
Rapid Key Dialling and Speed Dialling numbers. For example, if you have
stored an area code or an access code for a special service in a Rapid Key,
you can press the Rapid Key for that area code or access code, then dial the
remainder of the number by pressing a Rapid Key, pressing number keys, or
pressing the SPEED DIAL key and entering a two-digit Speed Dial number.
Using the HOLD/SEARCH key
You can use the HOLD/SEARCH key to search for a Rapid Key or Speed
Dial number. First search for the number as described in Using the
HOLD/SEARCH key in Sending a Fax by Automatic Dialling in Chapter 2,
then pick up the handset or press the SPEAKER key. The number will be
dialled automatically (do not press the START key).
Redial
The last number called can be redialled by pressing the REDIAL key (it is
not necessary to pick up the handset or press the SPEAKER key). When the
other party answers, pick up the handset to talk.
Hold
You can put the other party on hold during a conversation by pressing the
HOLD/SEARCH key. When this is done, they cannot hear you. You can put
the handset back in the cradle without breaking the connection. When you are
ready to speak with them again, pick up the handset. If you did not put the
handset back in the cradle, press the HOLD/SEARCH key again to resume
conversation.

Connecting Answering Machine
Note: When FaxAbility or Fax Duet (distinctive ring) is used, the
answering machine may be connected to any extension of the same line.
Important: In New Zealand, not all standard telephones and answering
machines will respond to incoming ringing when connected to the extension
socket of the equipment.
Changing the outgoing message
The outgoing message (OGM) of your answering machine should be
changed to inform callers who want to send a fax to press their Start key. For
example, your message might go as follows:
"Hello. You’ve reached the ABC company. No one is available to take your
call right now. Please leave a message after the beep or press your facsimile
Start key to send a fax. Thank you for calling."
Comments:
• It is advisable to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is too
long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic dialling.
• If your outgoing message must be longer than 10 seconds, leave a pause of
about four seconds at the beginning of the message. This will give your fax a
chance to detect fax tones sent when automatic dialling is used.

How answering machine mode operates
While you are out, all of your incoming calls will be answered by the
answering machine and its outgoing message will play. Voice callers can
leave a message. During this time, your fax will quietly monitor the line. If
your fax detects a fax tone or a duration of silence greater than four seconds,
it will take over the line and begin reception.

Viewing the Caller ID list
If you subscribe to a Caller ID service and have turned on the Caller ID function,
your fax machine will keep information on the most recent 20 unanswered calls
and/or unsuccessful faxes you have received. You can view this information, which
consists of the name and number of each caller, in the Caller ID List.
Note: For all units installed in New Zealand, the direct use of the displayed
number for call back does not operate properly and must not be used. It is
necessary to manually enter the verified correct number for the party called. This
will often require the addition or deletion of leading digits from the number
shown on the display when dialling manually.
♦ After you have received 20 unanswered calls, each new call will delete the
oldest call.
Follow the steps below to view the Caller ID List in the display. If desired, you can

Blocking voice calls
With Caller ID turned on, you can use the Anti Junk Fax function described
in Blocking Reception of Unwanted Faxes in this chapter to prevent voice
calls as well as fax receptions (the Anti Junk Fax function can normally only
prevent faxes).
In this case, when a voice call or a fax transmission comes in from a number
you have specified as a "Junk Number", your fax will break the connection as
soon as it receives the calling phone number from the caller ID service
(before the second ring).
To use this function, set Option Setting 15 to YES as described in Chapter 8,
Option Settings, and then enter the number in the Anti Junk Number List as
explained in Blocking Reception of Unwanted Faxes in this chapter.

Distinctive Ring
Distinctive Ring
If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service from your telephone company,
you will need to turn on the distinctive ring function. When this is done, your
fax machine will signal voice calls by the normal ring pattern, and fax
transmissions by a special ring pattern. In the case of a fax transmission, your
fax machine will automatically answer the call and receive the fax.
The distinctive ring function is used with the reception mode set to FAX.
When your fax number is dialled, your fax machine will signal the call with a
special ringing sound, then answer automatically and begin reception after
the number of rings set with Option Setting 2 (the factory setting is 2 rings).
When your voice number is dialled, the fax machine will signal the call with
the normal ringing sound to let you know that you must answer personally.
The factory setting is "NO". If set to "YES", both Australian (Fax Duet) and
New Zealand (FaxAbility) Distinctive Ring are supported.
Important:
• The distinctive ring function can only be used if you subscribe to a
distinctive ring service from your telephone company. Do not turn on
distinctive ring if you are on a normal line, as the fax machine will not
operate properly.
• If you turn on distinctive ring, the fax will not operate in TEL/FAX

Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)
Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)
Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document
(previously loaded in its feeder) to your machine without operator assistance.
In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine,
initiates the transmission. You can use your machine to both poll and be
polled by others.
To use the polling function, you must first set Rapid Key 10/POLL for use as
a polling key. This is done by changing Option Setting 16, as described in
Chapter 8, Option Settings. (Note that when Rapid Key 10/POLL is set as a
polling key, it cannot be used for Rapid Key Dialling.)

After polling a fax machine, you can send a document to that machine on the

follow the steps described above in "Requesting transmission". When polling
is finished, the document will be automatically transmitted.
♦ The other fax machine must also have Turnaround Polling capability.
♦ Turnaround Polling cannot be performed when a timer transmission
operation is set.
Being polled (polling standby)
To let another fax machine poll your machine, simply set the reception mode
to FAX, and load the document(s) to be sent.
Transmission will take place when the other fax machine calls your machine
and activates polling. Automatic reception is possible whilst your fax is on
polling standby.
Polling security
Polling Security allows you to prevent unauthorized polling of your machine.
When this function is turned on, polling will only take place when the fax
number of the polling fax machine has been entered in your machine’s list of
permitted fax numbers (called "passcode numbers"). The number of the
polling fax must also be correctly programmed into itself for identification.
