Dialling through a switchboard (PBX)  
A PBX (private branch exchange) is an on-site telephone switchboard.  
• If your fax is connected through a switchboard, dial an outside line access number first. Then dial the rest of the  
number.  
• If you want to dial with automatic dialling, you may have to insert a pause between the outside line number and the  
telephone number when you register the number for one-touch or coded speed dialling.  
• When the fax is connected to a PBX or other telephone switching system, you can register the access type and  
outside access line number under the [R] button (see below). Once you have registered them, you simply need to  
press [R] before dialling a fax or telephone number.

Paper requirements  
Your fax supports A4-size paper in portrait orientation. You can use regular copier paper, cotton bond paper, or  
typical letterhead. Always use paper without curls, folds, staples, or damaged edges. Look at the label on the package  
to see if the paper has a preferred side for printing.  
•
•
Be sure to test paper before purchasing large quantities.  
For details on loading paper in the multi-purpose tray, see p. 12.

Paper guidelines  
• Be sure to load paper of the correct size, weight, and quantity recommended for your fax (see pp. 25, 58).  
• Store all paper wrapped and on a flat surface until ready to use. Keep opened packs in their original packaging, in a  
cool, dry location.  
• Store paper at 18º–24ºC, 40%–60% relative humidity.  
• To avoid paper jams and poor print quality, do not print on damp, curled, wrinkled, or torn paper.  
• Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll.  
• Use only paper that has a thickness of between 0.09 and 0.13 mm.  
• Let the paper run out before refilling the multi-purpose tray. Avoid mixing new stock with paper already loaded.  
• Do not leave paper stacked in the multi-purpose tray for long periods of time since it may bend or curl and cause  
problems.  
• Certain environmental conditions, such as extreme temperatures or humidity, can cause some paper to misfeed in  
the multi-purpose tray. If you have trouble, feed one sheet at a time.  
• If paper curls after printing, remove it immediately; otherwise paper jams may occur.

5 SENDING DOCUMENTS  
Preparing to send a document  
Before you send a document, see Chapter 3: DOCUMENTS AND PAPER.  
Adjusting the quality of your documents  
■ Setting the scanning resolution  
Resolution is a measure of the fineness or clarity of a printout. Low resolutions may cause text and graphics to have a  
jagged appearance, while higher resolutions provide smoother curves and lines, crisp text and graphics, and a better  
match to traditional typeface designs.  
The higher the resolution, the higher the output quality, but the slower the scanning speed.

The documents are transmitted with the <FINE> resolution when <SUPERFINE> is selected. <SUPERFINE> is effective only  
when copying.  
You can change the resolution setting while the document is being scanned for sending. However, please note that your  
new setting will only be effective from the next page scanned.  
■ Setting the scanning contrast  
Contrast is the difference in brightness between the lightest and darkest parts of a printed document. You can adjust  
the contrast your fax uses to send or copy documents, according to how light or dark your document is.

Use [ ] or [ ] to change the volume (VOL 0 to 3).  
Receiving documents in memory while  
performing another task or when a problem  
occurs  
If your fax is performing another task or encounters a problem when receiving a document, it automatically stores the  
unprinted pages in memory, and the LCD displays <REC’D IN MEMORY> as well as one or more messages. For an  
explanation of the message(s) and details on the action to take, see p. 56.  
You can set the fax not to store documents in memory if a problem occurs during reception.  
Polling to receive documents  
The polling feature allows you to request a document to be faxed to you from another fax machine. The sending party  
only needs to make sure the document is on a fax machine and ready to be sent. Thus, when your fax polls the other  
fax machine, the document is sent automatically. The fax can poll any fax machine that supports polling.

•
Before attempting to poll a fax machine, make sure that the other fax machine supports polling.  
If the other party is using a Canon fax machine which has the Polling ID function, ask them to set the Polling ID of their fax  
machine to 255 (11111111 binary number).

Use a copier to make a reduced copy  
of the document and then send the  
copy.

Error Correction Mode (ECM).  
Turn off ECM if you need to receive  
quickly, or if you know your local lines  
are in good condition  
(see <ECM RX>, p. 42).

Error Correction Mode (ECM).  
Turn off ECM if you need to transmit  
quickly, or if you know your local lines  
are in good condition  
(see <ECM TX>, p. 41).

received too many documents, or a very  
long or detailed document.

document.

delete any documents stored in  
memory (see p. 35).  
If multiple pages are loaded, separate  
the pages into smaller stacks. If not,  
try sending the document by direct  
sending (see p. 29).

The one-touch speed dialling button or  
coded speed dialling code you entered  
has not been registered.  
Register the one-touch speed dialling  
button or coded speed dialling code  
(see pp. 22, 23).  
REC’D IN MEMORY  
The fax received the document in  
memory because paper or ink film ran  
out, a paper jam occurred.  
Load paper in the multi-purpose tray  
(see p. 12), replace the ink film (see p.  
48) or clear the paper jam (see p. 45),  
and then press [Stop] to print the  
document.

feeder.  
Set the document you are trying to  
send or copy (see p. 13) and start  
again.  
SET INK FILM

Replace the ink film (see p. 48).  
If required, try sending again.

transmission.
