AUTO LINC UP

• Some fax software takes a few moments to prepare

a document before dialing. This delay may cause a
dial-tone “timeout” on many telephones. To avoid
the dial-tone timeout, either convert the docu-
ment to fax format before you prepare to send it,
or do not lift the handset from the telephone
cradle until the software indicates that it is ready
to dial. Remember that you still need to calibrate
the Linc Up before dialing!
