Setting Up 2-5 Setting Up Making Connections Connecting the Telephone Line Cord and External Devices Your FAX has three jacks on the side for connection of the following: · Telephone line cord · Optional handset or telephone · Additional telephone, answering machine, or data modem If you only have one telephone line and plan to use your FAX for receiving both faxes and voice calls, you will need to connect the optional handset, a telephone, or an answering machine to your unit. n Be sure to connect any external device before using your FAX. Follow this procedure to connect the telephone line cord and external device(s): 1 Connect the supplied telephone line cord to the L jack, then the other end to the telephone line jack on your wall. 2 Connect the optional handset or telephone cord to the h jack. (UK users, see the following page.) 3 Connect the additional telephone, answering machine, or data modem cord to the t jack. (UK users, see the following page.) 2-6 Setting Up Chapter 2 n I Users in the UK Only If the connectors of the external devices cannot be connected to the jacks on the FAX, you will need to purchase one or more B.T. adaptors to connect them as follows: Connect the telephone cord to the B.T. adaptor. Then connect the B.T. adaptor to the h jack. -or- Connect the additional telephone, answering machine, or data modem cord to the B.T. adaptor. Then connect the B.T. adaptor to the t jack. Chapter 2 Setting Up 2-7 Setting Up · Canon cannot guarantee that all answering machines will be compatible with your unit, due to varying specifications. · If you have connected an external device to your FAX, be sure to set the correct receive mode (1 Chapter 8). · To connect an additional telephone as well as an answering machine, connect the additional telephone to the answering machine, and then the answering machine to your FAX. · If you connect a data modem to your FAX and you use it extensively, or others access your PC frequently through the data modem, you may want a dedicated telephone line for your data modem. Connecting the Power Cord Before connecting the power cord, see Power Supply, p. 1-6. Follow this procedure to connect the power cord: Connect the supplied power cord to the power cord connector. Then connect the other end into a properly grounded 200­240 V AC threeprong outlet.* The FAX has no power switch, so its power is on as long as it is plugged in. Once connected, though, the unit still needs time to warm up before you can use it. Wait until the LCD no longer displays PLEASE WAIT. n · The FAX is equipped with a three-prong, grounding-type plug provided with a third (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into your outlet, contact an electrician to replace the outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug by breaking off the third prong or using a 3-to-2 adaptor.* · Do not plug the FAX into the same circuit as an appliance such as an air conditioner, electric typewriter, television, or copier. Such devices generate electrical noise that can interfere with your FAX's ability to send and receive faxes. * The shape of the plug and outlet vary depending on the country of purchase. 2-8 Setting Up Chapter 2 Main Components of the FAX MULTI-PURPOSE TRAY COVER PAPER REST SUPPORT TRAYS FACE-DOWN DELIVERY SLOT DOCUMENT GUIDES ADF (AUTOMATIC DOCUMENT FEEDER) OPERATION PANEL PAPER DELIVERY SELECTOR FACE-UP DELIVERY SLOT PAPER GUIDES MULTI-PURPOSE TRAY LATCH FRONT COVER DOCUMENT SUPPORT FX-3 TONER CARTRIDGE COMPARTMENT TRANSFER CHARGING ROLLER (DO NOT TOUCH) PAPER RELEASE LEVER FIXING ASSEMBLY FRONT COVER Chapter 2 Setting Up 2-9 Setting Up Operation Panel · Receive Mode Button (1 Chapter 8) · R Button (1 p. 3-9) · Hook Button (1 pp. 6-17, 7-6, 9-3) · LCD · Resolution Button (1 pp. 7-2, 10-2) · Coded Dial Button (1 pp. 6-2, 6-16, 6-17) · Start/Copy Button (1 pp. 10-2, 10-3) · Alarm Light · Set Button (1 p. 14-3) · Redial/Pause Button (1 pp. 7-9, 9-2) · Stop Button (1 p. 14-3) ABC DEF 1 GHI JKL 2 MNO 3 6 WXYZ 01 Alarm 02 03 04 4 PQRS TUV 5 8 0 Receive Mode Resolution Set 05 06 07 08 R Coded Dial Redial/Pause 09 10 11 12 7 9 Hook Start/Copy Stop 13 14 15 16 # 17 18 19 20 · Numeric Buttons (1 p. 3-2) · One-Touch Speed Dialling Buttons (1 pp. 6-2, 6-16, 6-17) · One-Touch Speed Dial Panel Open the one-touch speed dial panel to expose the special function buttons below.

Chapter 2 Setting Up 2-13 Setting Up Loading Paper This section explains how to load plain paper in the multi-purpose tray. For complete details on paper requirements and selecting paper for your FAX, see Chapter 5. Before loading paper, be sure to read the following: c The laser printing process uses high temperatures to fuse toner to the paper. Use paper that will not melt, vaporise, discolour, or emit dangerous fumes at temperatures near 170°C. For example, do not use vellum paper in a laser printer. Make sure any letterhead or coloured paper you use can withstand high temperatures. · Your FAX supports regular copier paper, cotton bond paper, and typical letterhead paper. It does not require special paper. Use cut-sheet paper only, not paper that comes on a roll. · Be sure to load paper of the correct size, weight, and quantity recommended for your FAX (1 Chapter 5). · The multi-purpose tray is factory-set for loading A4-size paper, but you can change this setting to other paper sizes (1 p. 5-7). · You can choose whether paper is delivered through the face-up or face-down delivery slot (1 p. 5-4). Choose according to the task you are performing. · The face-down delivery slot can hold up to approximately 50 sheets of paper. To prevent paper jams, remove paper from this slot before the count reaches 50. · Do not load paper while the FAX is printing. · 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. · Take care not to drop any foreign objects into the multi-purpose tray. · Avoid mixing new stock with paper already loaded in the multi-purpose tray. Adding new stock without removing the paper already loaded will cause paper jams. If you must add new stock, remove the loaded paper and reload it together with the new stock. 2-14 Setting Up Chapter 2 Follow this procedure to load a stack (maximum 10 mm stack height) of A4-size plain paper in the multi-purpose tray: 1 Remove the multi-purpose tray cover from the FAX. 2 Prepare a stack of paper by tapping it on a flat surface to even its edges. 3 Open the paper guides to the approximate width of the stack. 4 Insert the stack into the multi-purpose tray q (print side facing you and top edge first), then adjust the paper guides to the width of the paper w. · Make sure there are no gaps between the paper guides and the paper stack. 1 2 2 Chapter 2 Setting Up 2-15 Setting Up 5 Replace the multi-purpose tray cover. · Be sure to replace this cover to prevent dust accumulating inside the unit. 6 Adjust the paper delivery selector if necessary (1 p. 5-4). Your FAX is now ready to print. Testing the FAX Once you have assembled the FAX, installed the toner cartridge, and loaded paper, you can make sure the FAX is printing properly by making several copies of a document (1 p. 10-2). If you have problems printing, see Chapter 13. 2-16 Setting Up Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Registering Information Guidelines for Entering Numbers, Letters, and Symbols ....................3-2 Correcting a Mistake ..............................................................................3-4 Registering Sender Information..............................................................3-5 What is Sender Information?..................................................................3-5 Entering the Date and Time ...................................................................3-6 Registering Your FAX Number and Name..............................................3-6 Setting the Telephone Line Type ............................................................3-8 Dialling Through a Switchboard .............................................................3-9 Registering the R Button ........................................................................3-9 Chapter 3 Registering Information 3-1 Registering Information Guidelines for Entering Numbers, Letters, and Symbols When you come to a step that requires you to enter a name or number, refer to the table below to determine which numeric button to press for the character you want: Button Uppercase Letter Mode (:A) 1 ABC Lowercase Letter Mode (:a) Number Mode (:1) 1 2 DEF ABCÅÄÁÀÃÂÆÇ DEF- ËÉÈÊ D GHIÏÍÌÎ JKL MNOÑØÖÓÒÕÔ PQRS TUVÜÚÙÛ WXYZY abcåäáàãâæç defdëéèê ghiïíìî jkl mnoñøöóòõô pqrs tuvüúùû wxyzy 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 3 GHI 4 JKL 5 MNO 6 PQRS 7 TUV 8 WXYZ 9 0 # ­.A#!",;:^`_=/|'?$@%&+()[]{}<> Uppercase Letter Mode (:A) Lowercase Letter Mode (:a) Number Mode (:1) n If you pause for more than 60 seconds between entering data, the unit will automatically return to standby mode. 3-2 Registering Information Chapter 3 I Changing Between Number and Letter Modes Press T to select number mode (:1), uppercase letter mode (:A), or lowercase letter mode (:a). _ :1 (Number mode) _ :A (Uppercase letter mode) _ :a (Lowercase letter mode) I Entering Letters 1 Press T to switch to uppercase letter mode (:A) or lowercase letter mode (:a).
