♦ If you received documents in memory because the fax ran out of 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 transmitting machines if they are

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."
♦ It is advisable 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.
Using the Answering Machine Connection
When you go out, activate the answering machine connection as follows:
1
Set the reception mode to A.M.
2
Set your answering machine to auto answer.
♦ Your answering machine must be set to answer on a maximum of two rings.
If not, you may not be able to receive faxes sent by automatic dialling.
♦ If your answering machine has a toll saver function, make sure that 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 page 63). If they are the same,
entering the code from an outside telephone to retrieve messages will cause the
fax machine to be activated.

How answering machine mode 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.
♦ If the connection is not good or there is noise on the line, the answering
machine and/or fax machine may not respond properly.
♦ The call counter on your answering machine may indicate that voice
messages were received, when only fax messages were received.
♦ To prevent the fax from taking over the line and beginning reception if you
call in from an external phone or answer on an extension phone, press any
three keys (other than the code to activate fax reception, "5", "*", and "*")
on the dial pad of the phone. This can only be performed from a phone
capable of tone dialling.
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
If necessary, you can use the following settings to improve the response of the
answering machine connection to incoming calls.
Quiet Detect Time
This function causes the fax machine to take over the line and begin reception
if a certain duration of silence is detected after the answering machine
answers.
all.bookPage70Wednesday,August27,20032:51PM

Optional A.M. Mode Settings

5. Answering
Machine
Time selections for the period of silence are 1 to 10 seconds. Quiet Detect
Time has been set to 4 seconds at the factory. This gives the best
performance with most answering machines; however, you may need to
adjust this setting depending on the disconnect time of your answering
machine.
Some answering machines may have unusually fast disconnect times (equal
to or very slightly less than 4 seconds), which means that the answering
machine may disconnect the line before fax reception can begin. In this case,
try a Quiet Detect Time setting of about 3 seconds.
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 message to shorten the silence.
Note: Quiet Detect Time can be turned off by entering "00" for the time. Note,
however, that the fax machine will not be able to receive faxes sent manually by
Normal Dialing.
To change the setting, follow the steps below.

This setting can be used to delay the start of the Quiet Detect Time function.
For example, if you want to insert a pause at the beginning of your answering
machine’s outgoing message to ensure clear detection of fax signals, you can
use this setting to delay the start of silence detection so that the pause will not
cause the fax to take over the line.
Quiet Detect Start Timing has been set to five seconds at the factory. You can
change this setting by entering a 2-digit number equal to the desired number
of seconds of the delay, or turn the function off by enttering 00. As general

Polling (Requesting a Fax Transmission)
Polling allows you to call another fax machine and have it send a document
(previously loaded in its feeder) to your machine without operator assistance.
In other words, the receiving fax machine, not the transmitting fax machine,
initiates the transmission.
To use the polling function, you must first set Rapid Key 08/POLL for use as a
polling key.
♦ When Rapid Key 08/POLL is set as a polling key, it cannot be used for
Rapid Key dialing.

Being polled (Memory polling)
To let another fax machine poll your fax machine, you must first store the
document(s) in memory using the following procedure. Transmission 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".
♦ If you allow polling only once, the document(s) will be automatically cleared
from memory after polling. If you allow polling an unlimited number of times,
the document will remain in memory until you clear it as explained in the
following section,

A line error occurs when your fax machine cannot
communicate correctly with the other fax machine.
The error is usually due to a problem on the phone
line.
Try the transaction again. If the error persists, check
the following:
• Check the connection. The cord from the TEL.
LINE jack to the wall jack should be no longer than
six feet.
• Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the
same telephone line.
• Check with the other party to make sure their fax
machine is functioning properly.
• Have your telephone line checked for line noise.
• Try connecting the fax machine to a different
telephone line.
• If the problem still occurs, your fax machine may
need service.

Carcinogenicity : In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Group 2B carcinogen
(possible 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 carcinogenicity. 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 (16mg/m
3
) exposure group, and a
minimal to mild degree of fibrosis was noted in22% of the animals in
the middle (4mg/m
3
) exposure group, but no pulmonary change was
reported in the lowest (1mg/m
3
) exposure group, the most relevant
level to potential human exposures.
