Length and Width: See the above diagram. If the page is too short, put it inside a document carrier or enlarge it with the copier function. If the page is too long, divide it into two or more sheets. Note:lf you place the page on the exposure glass, you can transmit pages smaller than the minimum size shown above. Clearly Written Small faint characters may not be transmitted clearly. Uniform Page Size When using the document feeder, do not use different sizes of document in the same transmission. 15 Recommended Types of Document FAXING Page Condition Do not place damaged pages in the automatic document feeder.

Then adjust the guides to fit the width of the document. Note:Do not feed in more than 30 pages. Do not stack documents in the feeder so that they exceed the load limit marker. Insert the document until you hear the machine beep. If the machine cannot detect your document in the ADF, it will scan from the exposure glass instead. Setting the document to the exposure glass Lift up the top cover and place the first page of your document face down in the top left corner of the exposure glass. Then lower the top cover. The display is as shown. 17 Memory Transmission and Immediate Transmission FAXING Memory Transmission and Immediate Transmission There are two ways to send a fax message, ~ ~ Immediate Transmission Memory Transmission Immediate Transmission is convenient when: Immediate Transmission ~ ~ ~ You wish to send a message immediately You wish to quickly check whether you have successfully other party connected with the Your machine's memory is getting full The machine dials immediately after you press Start. The message is scanned and transmitted page by page without being stored in memory. Memory Transmission Memory Transmission ~ ~ ~ is convenient because: Fax messages can be scanned much more quickly (you can take your document away from the fax machine without waiting too long). While your fax message is being sent, another user can operate the machine (people will not have to wait by the fax machine too long). You can send the same message to more than one place with the same operation. After you press Start, the machine doesn't dial until all the pages of your fax message have been stored in the memory. The default mode of this machine is Memory Transmission, so the procedures described in this manual will be based on the assumption that you are using Memory Transmission. Immediate Transmission is described in a separate section. 18
