Description
Fax Speed
Select the fax transmission speed. We recommend selecting
Slow(9,600bps)
when a
communication error occurs frequently, when sending/receiving a fax to/from abroad, or when
you are using an IP (VoIP) phone service.
ECM
Automatically corrects errors in the fax transmission (Error Correction Mode), mostly caused by
telephone line noise. If this is disabled, you cannot send or receive documents in color.
Dial Tone Detection
Detects a dial tone before starting to dial. If the printer is connected to a PBX (Private Branch
Exchange) or digital phone line, the printer may fail to start dialing. In this situation, change the
Line Type
setting to
PBX
. If this does not work, disable this feature. However, disabling this
feature may drop the first digit of a fax number and send the fax to the wrong number.
Dial Mode
Select the type of phone system to which you have connected the printer. When set to
Pulse
,
you can temporarily switch the dialing mode from pulse to tone by pressing ("T" is entered)
while entering numbers on the fax top screen. This setting may not be displayed depending on
your region or country.
Line Type
Select the line type to which you have connected the printer.
When using the printer in an environment that uses extensions and requires an external access
code, such as 0 and 9, to get an outside line, select
PBX
and register the access code. Once you
have registered the access code, enter # (hash) instead of the access code when sending a fax to
an outside fax number. For an environment that uses a DSL modem or terminal adapter, setting
to
PBX
is also recommended.
You cannot send faxes to recipients in
Contacts
in which an external access code such as 0 or 9
is set. If you have added recipients in
Contacts
using an external access code such as 0 or 9, set
the
Access Code
to
Do Not Use
. Otherwise, you must change the code to # in
Contacts
.
