This is called a call request. It doesn t matter whether you re sending the fax or receiving it. You may fax first and then talk, or talkfirst and then fax. If someone requests a call from you during a fax communication, you ll hear a long ring after the receiving machine has received each page.
Advanced features The power of QuadAccessfi Your fax machine s QuadAccess feature sharply reduces the time you might spend waiting for the machine to finish its work. QuadAccess is a more powerful version of what already is a pretty powerful feature, called dual access. While a fax with normal dual access allows you to do two things at once, QuadAccess allows you to do four operations at once.

Advanced features Security features Your machine has a number of security features to keep your private fax documents private, avoid unwanted outside communication and even protect against unauthorized use of your machine. These security features include: (1) Security reception, (2) PIN mask, (3) Block junk fax, and (4) Department codes. Security reception Security reception tells your machine to keep all received faxes in memory (but not print them).

Advanced features Masking the PIN To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require you to enter a personal identification number (PIN)whenever you dial long distance. Your fax s PIN mask feature helps you keep that PIN number private. With the PIN mask activated, you can dial a fax number plus a PIN, but the PIN will not appear in a journal, error message printout, delayed command list or a T C R.The PIN may be up to eight characters in length.
Advanced features While in PIN Mode 1, any autodialer numbers you use must include the PIN.This also applies to autodialer numbers used with batch transmission (see page 3.11) or programmable one-touch keys (see pages 3.35 3.48). Note: If you select either Mode 1 or Mode 2 and will be using batch transmission, you must store the PIN access code for the remote unit within the appropriate batch box.

Just in case Troubleshooting What you see on the What it means/What to do Occasionally, your fax machine encounters some trouble transmitting or receiving documents. When it does, it alerts you with an alarm. You can identify the problem with LCD messages and printed check messages and error reports, explained in the following pages. Change to Fax Mode You tried to to store the document for polling (or for F-Code Box) when the machine is in the Copy mode.
Just in case What you see on the LCD Document Full What you see on the You tried to enter an document into an F-Code box, but the machine has reached its capacity (30 documents). Delete documents stored in F-Code boxes until the machine will let you proceed. Hang Up Phone The optional handset is off-hook. Hang it up, making sure the upper part of the handset presses down on the hook button. In Relay Box You tried to store a document for polling in an FCode box which is set to be a relay box.

Unable to Reduce In the reduction copy using the ADF,ifthe calculated ratio is smaller than minimum reduction ratio (50%), this message will appear and you cannot make the reduction copy. Use the FBS glass, however parts of the image might not be copied.
Just in case Reception errors R .1.1 R .1.2 R .1.4 R .2.3 R .3.1 R .3.3 R .3.4 The calling fax machine didn t respond to your fax machine. This can happen if someone dials a wrong number or if the remote machine restricts access through use of a passcode. The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and receives only ITU-T Group 3 (see Glossary,page 5.18) fax communication, the industry standard since the early 1980s. Someone pressed STO P at the receiving fax machine.
Just in case Check Message printouts When there s a problem with a fax call and your machine detects an error, it produces an error printout headed by the words Check Message. This printout lists the following information about the transmission: The resulting error code A communications error message (see What error messages can mean, below) The phone number (or TTI, if programmed) of the fax machine with which your machine had attempted to communicate.
Just in case Caring for your fax machine W ith proper installation and a little maintenance, your fax machine should give you dependable service for years to come. Although it requires little day-to-day care, you can take these simple precautions to keep it in top form: Always make sure your fax machine is installed according to our specifications, including using an electrical surge suppressor. (If necessary, review Pick an installation spot, page 1.5.) Always use good, copier-quality paper.
Just in case 5 Open the inner cover fully. Important: You must hold the cover open. It won t stay open by itself. the cloth with the rollers cleaner to 6 Use clean the face of the rollers. Rotate the rollers by hand to allow cleaning of the entire roller surface. If you have unsatisfactory printout quality Your machine automatically cleans its charger and transport roller, two items which are very important to printout quality.
Just in case Common questions Sending faxes W e re here to help you! The Muratec Information System is available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can use your fax machine to call this fax-on-demand system and receive printouts of information, such as the most common questions asked about your machine. Often, this is the fastest way to find out the answer to any question you may have.
Just in case Q: Can I transmit a document that s extra long? A: Yes, fi the receiving fax machine is equipped to handle long documents. Many machines have a special setting which allows them to receive documents that exceed the normal length. Q: Can I transmit a page from a newspaper? A: No. A newspaper page can jam in your document feeder. First, use a copy machine to make an appropriately sized copy of the newspaper page, then transmit the copy.
Just in case Receiving faxes Polling Q: My fax never answers. What s wrong? A: Check to make sure your fax machine is properly connected to a working A C power outlet and phone jack (see page 1.7). If you re using a second phone with your machine, make sure its connected properly (page 2.20). Q: What s the purpose of polling? A: Polling lets you automatically pull a document which is set in another fax machine.
Just in case Glossary This glossary contains terms you may encounter when discussing or reading about fax machines. Please use these definitions for reference only.A list of definitions can also be found on the Muratec website at w w w.muratec.com. Broadcast 24-hour format Also called military format.A format for keeping time that does not use a.m. or p.m. to distinguish between morning and afternoon. In the 24-hour format, one o clock in the morning marks 1:00, noon marks 12:00 and midnight marks 24:00.
Just in case Default The setting your machine will always refer to if no other action has been programmed. For example, you can set the default for this machine to send a fax by using its memory. If you set this action as the default, that s how your machine will always send a fax, until you tell it to do differently. Delayed command Transmission or polling operation set by the user to occur later, automatically, at a predetermined time.
Just in case Modified Huffman, the standard ITU-T Group 3 data compression method. A one-dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in a horizontal direction only.A feature of all Muratec fax machines, M H assures transmissions faster than one page per minute when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless of manufacturer. See also M R,M M R,M S E,S M S E. MH Paper sizes All are width × length: M o d e m Modulator-demodulator.
Just in case Relay broadcasting Lets some Muratec fax machines store a document in internal memory, transmit the document to the memory of a remote hub fax and then instruct that unit to relay (retransmit) the document to each fax in a call group in the hub unit. This feature speeds extremely high-volume fax communication and allows a single command to initiate document transmission to hundreds of preprogrammed fax locations. It also saves phone charges for the originating machine.
