Sending a Fax from the System
To quickly send a fax from the system to a single recipient using factory defaults:
1. Select one of the following methods:
Document Glass: Place the first page of the document you are faxing facedown on
the document glass with the top of the page toward the left side of the system.
Document Feeder: Remove any staples and paper clips from pages and insert them
faceup in the document feeder with the top of the page entering the document feeder
first.
2. On the control panel, press the Fax button.
3. Using the alphanumeric keypad, enter the fax telephone number, and then press the
Start button.
4. If you use the document feeder, the system scans the pages and transmits the fax. If you
use the document glass, the system scans the first page and then prompts you to
Scan
Another Fax?
Select one of the following options:
If you want to scan another fax page, select Yes, and then press the OK button.
Remove the first scanned fax page, place the next page on the document glass, and
then press the Start button.
If you have no other pages to fax, select No, and then press the OK button; the
system transmits the fax.
