Welcome

Thank you for choosing the Canon FAX-B155 Bubble Jet

facsimile. The compact, upright design of

the fax means it takes up less space in your work area. The bubble jet print mechanism uses cut-sheet

plain paper, so you get crisp reproductions of your fax documents and copies.

The FAX-B155 has a number of features that make it ideal for small to medium-sized offices with a

single telephone line.

Features

Plain paper

The fax accepts A4, letter, and legal size cut-sheet plain paper for crisp reproduction and faxes that are

flat and easy to write on.

Automatic switching between fax and voice calls

The fax recognises incoming fax calls, and automatically switches to receive mode.

Automatic dialling

A variety of dialling methods allows you to register frequently used fax numbers and phone numbers

and access them by pressing one or a few buttons.

Error Correction Mode (ECM) TX / RX

Automatically helps correct transmission errors due to system and telephone line noise.

Delayed transmission

Sends a fax automatically at a later time, for example, at night when telephone rates are lower.

360 dpi copy mode

Lets you make copies at 360 × 360 dpi.
