DECREASE THE TRANSMISSION SPEED OF THE FAX MODEM
The modem of the printer can transmit data at 33,600 bps. This is the maximum speed at which the printer can send
and receive faxes. It is not necessary, however, to set the modem to its fastest transmission capability. The speed of
the modem of the receiving fax machine must match or be greater than the speed at which you are sending your
fax. Otherwise, your fax will not be received.

2 Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Fax Setup, and then press .

document is saved in the printer memory. The printer can then retrieve it and automatically redial the number.
