Important safety information  
Be sure to save these instructions!  
When using your facsimile equipment, basic safety precautions  
should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock  
and injury to persons, including the following:  
• Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not  
described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service  
personnel.  
• This machine must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded  
(3-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will  
damage the machine and invalidate the warranty.  
• Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet.  
For example, do not use the machine near a bath tub, wash bowl,  
kitchen sink or laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming  
pool. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine.  
• Unplug the machine from the telephone jack and then the power  
outlet and consult a qualified service representative if any of the  
following situations occur:  
3
- Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been  
exposed to rain or water.  
- The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises.  
- The power cord is frayed or damaged.  
- The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged.  
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install  
the machine where people may walk on the power cord.  
• Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the  
machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an  
object falls into the machine that you cannot safely remove, unplug  
the machine and consult a qualified service representative.  
• Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The  
machine could be seriously damaged if it falls.  
• Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an  
electrical storm. There may be a remote risk of electric shock from  
lightning.  
• Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the  
leak.  
• The power outlet must be installed near the equipment and must be  
easily accessible.  
Important:  
• This facsimile machine is not designed for use on a line which has  
call waiting, call forwarding, or certain other special services  
offered by your telephone company. If you attempt to use the fax  
machine in conjunction with any of these services, you may  
experience errors during transmission and reception of facsimile  
messages.  
• This facsimile machine is not compatible with digital telephone  
systems.

Do not place the machine and  
the drum cartridge in direct  
sunlight.  
Do not place the machine near  
heaters or air conditioners.  
Keep dust away from the  
machine.  
Keep the area around the  
machine clear.  
About condensation  
If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that  
condensation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper  
scanning of documents for transmission. To remove the condensation,  
turn on the power and wait approximately two hours before using the  
machine.  
11  
Connections  
Connecting the Handset  
Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.  
The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into  
either jack.  
Make sure the handset  
cord goes into the jack  
marked with a handset  
symbol on the side of  
the machine!  
Use the handset to  
make ordinary phone  
calls, or to transmit and  
receive faxes manually.  
12  
Connections  
Connecting the power cord  
Plug the power cord into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded AC (3-prong)  
outlet.  
Caution!  
Do not plug the power cord into any other kind of outlet. This will  
damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty.  
The machine does not have a  
power on/off switch, so the  
power is turned on and off by  
simply plugging in or  
unplugging the power cord.  
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 spe-  
cialty stores.  
13  
Connections  
Connecting the telephone line cord  
Insert one end of the line cord into the jack on the left of the machine  
marked TEL. LINE. Insert the other end into a standard (RJ11C)  
single-line wall telephone jack.  
Be sure to insert  
the line into the  
TEL. LINE jack.  
Do not insert it into  
the TEL. SET jack.

Installing the Toner Cartridge  
Installing the Toner Cartridge  
The laser printer in your fax machine uses a toner cartridge and a  
drum cartridge. The drum cartridge comes pre-installed, and the toner  
cartridge must be installed.  
The starter toner cartridge  
included with your fax can  
print approximately 1,875  
letter-size pages at 4%  
page coverage.  
When replacing the toner  
cartridge, use a Sharp  
FO-29ND toner cartridge.  
One cartridge can print about  
3,750 letter-size pages.  
The drum cartridge can print approximately 20,000 letter-size  
pages. When replacing the drum cartridge, use a Sharp FO-29DR  
drum cartridge.  
Follow the steps below to install the toner cartridge and prepare the  
drum cartridge.  
1 Grasp the print compartment cover at  
both sides as shown, and pull up to  
open the cover.  
Caution!  
The fusing unit inside the print  
compartment becomes very hot  
during operation. Do not touch the  
inside of the compartment or the  
paper guide on the underside of the  
print compartment cover.  
17  
Installing the Toner Cartridge  
2 The drum cartridge has been installed  
at the factory. Gently pull the paper  
tab to remove the black sheet of  
protective paper from the cartridge.  
Be careful not to tear the paper nor  
leave any pieces of paper in the  
machine.  
3 Remove the new toner cartridge from  
its packaging. Shake the cartridge  
side to side four or five times to  
distribute the toner evenly within the  
cartridge.  
Carefully remove the band and the  
cardboard packaging material from  
the toner cartridge.  
18  
Installing the Toner Cartridge  
4 Hold the toner cartridge by the handle  
with the stamped markings on the  
cartridge facing upwards, and insert  
the cartridge into the print  
compartment.  
5 Place your thumb on the center of the  
handle where it is marked PUSH, and  
push the handle down and in so that  
the cartridge fits into place.  
6 Close the print compartment cover,  
pressing down firmly on each side to  
make sure it is completely closed.

Caution!  
Do not use the blank side of paper that has already been printed on.  
1 If you are going to load legal size  
paper, pull out the paper tray  
extension.  
2 Fan the paper, and then tap the edge  
against a flat surface to even the

Loading Printing Paper  
4 Insert the stack of paper firmly into  
the tray, print side up.  
Make sure that the stack is not  
higher than the marked line.  
Loading too much paper may cause  
paper jams and misfeeds.  
If paper remains in the tray, take it  
out and combine it into a single  
stack with the new paper before  
adding the new paper.  
Important:  
Be sure to load the paper so that printing takes place on the print side of  
the paper. Printing on the reverse side may result in poor print quality.  
5 Make sure the stack of paper is  
aligned against the right paper guide,  
and then gently move the left paper  
guide to the 8 1/2 position for letter or  
legal paper, or the A4 position for A4  
paper.  
6 Push the paper release lever back  
down.  
Note: If the paper does not feed  
correctly, remove the entire stack  
from the tray and repeat the loading  
procedure from the beginning.

Up to 20 pages can be placed in the feeder at one time. The pages will  
automatically feed into the machine starting from the bottom page.  
If you need to send or copy more than 20 pages, place the additional  
pages gently and carefully in the feeder just before the last page is  
scanned. Do not try to force them in, as this may cause double-feed-  
ing or jamming.  
If your document consists of several large or thick pages which  
must be loaded one at a time, insert each page into the feeder as the  
previous page is being scanned. Insert gently to prevent double-  
feeding.

Note: The fax machine uses a lithium battery to keep automatic dialing  
numbers and other programmed data in memory when the power is  
turned off. Battery power is consumed primarily when the power is off.  
With the power kept continuously off, the life of the battery is about 5  
years. If the battery dies, have your dealer or retailer replace it. Do not try  
to replace it yourself.

Sending a Fax by Automatic Dialing  
Dual Access  
The fax machine features full dual access, which means that you can  
load a document and dial by automatic dialing even when the fax  
machine is occupied with another operation. After you dial, your  
document will be immediately scanned into memory and then  
transmitted once all previously set operations have been completed.  
If more than one document has been scanned into memory for  
transmission, the documents will be transmitted in the order in which  
they were scanned.  
The fax machine can hold approximately 110 pages of average  
content in memory. Less pages can be held if any pages are scanned  
using fine or halftone resolution.  
The maximum number of transmission jobs that can be held at once  
is 30.  
The amount of memory currently occupied appears as a percentage  
(M:00%) in the display.

need to transmit the page which was being scanned when the  
memory filled up.

paper, be sure to add paper which is the same size as the paper  
previously used. If not, the document print-out size may not match the  
size of the printing paper.  
Caution!  
When documents are stored in memory, do not turn the power off.  
This will erase all of the contents.  
If documents received in memory are lost due to a power failure or  
other interruption in the power supply, a CLEAR REPORT will be  
printed out when the power is restored. This gives information  
about the receptions lost, including the fax numbers of the transmit-  
ting machines if they are available.

the reception mode is set to A.M. and there is a period of silence  
during the conversation. If you are on a touch-tone 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 recep-  
tion: 5, *, *.)

Connecting an Answering Machine  
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.”  
Try to keep the length of the message under 10 seconds. If it is too  
long, you may have difficulty receiving faxes sent by automatic  
dialing.  
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  
dialing is used.  
Activating the answering machine connection  
Before you go out, activate the answering machine connection as  
follows:

it will answer by the fourth ring.  
Note:  
If your answering machine has a remote retrieval function, make sure the  
code used to activate remote retrieval is different from the code used to  
activate fax reception with an extension telephone (see Chapter 3,  
Receiving Documents). If they are the same, entering the code from an  
outside telephone to retrieve messages will cause the fax machine to be  
activated.  
How the connection operates  
While you are out, all of your incoming calls will be answered by  
your 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.  
When you return and turn  
off your answering  
machine, be sure to change  
the reception mode back to  
FAX or TEL!

Optional A.M. Mode Settings  
Optional A.M. Mode Settings  
If necessary, you can use the following settings to improve the  
response of the answering machine hookup to incoming calls.  
Quiet Detect Time  
The fax machine is set to take over the line and begin reception if it  
detects 4 seconds of silence after the answering machine answers. If  
needed, you can change this setting to any number of seconds from 1  
to 10.  
We recommend that you do not set Quiet Detect Time under 3 sec-  
onds.  
If the fax machine is interrupting callers before they can leave a  
message, try a longer Quiet Detect Time setting. If your outgoing  
message includes a period of silence, make sure that the setting is  
longer than that period of silence, or re-record your outgoing mes-  
sage to shorten the silence.  
Note:  
Quiet Detect Time can be turned off by entering “00” for the time. Note,  
however, that the fax machine may not be able to receive manually-sent  
faxes from some older fax machines.

Fax when Answering machine Fails  
When this function is turned on, your fax will answer the call after 5  
rings if the answering machine for some reason fails to answer before  
that time. This ensures that you will receive fax messages even if the  
answering machine’s tape fills up or the answering machine is not  
turned on.  
This function has been turned off at the factory. If you want to turn it  
on, follow the steps below:  
Note:  
When this function is turned on, make sure that the answering machine is  
set to answer on 4 rings or less. If it isn’t, the fax will always answer first,  
preventing callers from leaving voice messages.

will take place when the other fax machine calls your fax machine and  
activates polling. You can choose whether to allow polling only once,  
or an unlimited number of times. In the latter case, your fax machine  
can be used as an electronic "bulletin board".  
Only one document can be stored at a time for memory polling.  
If you allow polling only once, the document will be automatically  
cleared from memory after polling. If you allow polling an unlim-  
ited number of times, the document will remain in memory until  
you clear it as explained in the following section, Clearing a docu-

Hazardous Identification (Emergency Overview)  
Toner is a fine, black powder possessing no immediate hazard. There are no anticipated carcinogenic  
effects from exposure based on animal tests performed using toner. When used as intended according to  
instructions, studies do not indicate any symptoms of fibrosis will occur.  
Section 5.  
Health Hazard Data  
: Inhalation?  
Yes  
Route(s) of Entry  
Skin?  
Ingestion?  
No  
Possible but very unusual.  
Health Hazards  
: Acute oral toxicityLD50 of this toner is over 2,000m /k .  
MutagenicityThe result of Ames test is negative.  
Carcinogenicity  
: In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen (possi-  
ble human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate  
human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenic-  
ity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic  
inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung.  
Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between  
carbon black and lung tumors. Moreover, a two-year cancer bioassay using a typical toner  
preparation containing carbon black demonstrated no association between toner exposure  
and tumor development in rats.  
Chronic Effect  
: In a study in rats of chronic inhalation exposure to a typical toner, a mild to  
moderate degree of lung fibrosis was observed in 92% of the rats in the high concentration  
(16m /m3) exposure group, and a minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in 22% of the  
animals in the middle (4m /m3) exposure group, but no pulmonary change was reported in  
the lowest (1m /m3) exposure group, the most relevant level to potential human exposures.  
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure  
to any non-toxic dust.  
Medical Conditions Generally Aggravated by Exposure : None  
: Minimal irritation to respiratory tract may occur as with exposure
