In addition, a priority transmission will interrupt a broadcast operation between stations (i.e., when transmission to station A ends, before transmission to station B begins) or between redial attempts. 1. Load the document face down. If necessary, adjust Resolution, or Contrast.
Send Polling What is Polling? Polling is used when one fax machine requests another to send a document. This is useful when the person with the original document is not in the office. The person to receive the document calls the machine holding the original and requests that the document be sent. In other words, it “polls” the machine holding the original. Polling Transmission You can program the fax machine to send documents in your absence when polled by a remote fax machine.
7. Press ➛ or ❿ to highlight YES or NO, then press START/ENTER. If you want to store the document in bulletin board memory, select YES. More than one remote station can poll that document from your machine. If not, the document will be automatically erased after being polled by a remote machine. 8. The machine will store the document in memory. The display counts the number of pages being stored in memory and the memory capacity remaining.
Adding Documents To a Scheduled Operation You can add documents to the delayed transmission previously reserved in memory. 1. Load the document face down, and adjust Resolution, or Contrast, if necessary. For details, see page 3.9. 2. Press ADVANCED FAX on the front panel. The display shows the first menu; BROADCASTING. 3. Press ➛ or ❿ until ‘ADD SCHEDULE’ appears, and press START/ENTER. The display shows the operation, time and name currently reserved in memory. 4.
Additional Functions Sending a Flash Some special phone services require a switch-hook signal for proper operation.

Chapter 4 Printing Read this chapter to learn how to select and load print media and how to use the print settings.
Print Media Selecting Print Media The type of media you select affects the performance and print quality. Selecting Media Types Most photocopy paper, postcards, index cards, transparencies, envelopes, and labels will work your printer, particularly paper that is marked for use in laser printers. For the best results, use one of the papers developed especially for laser printers. What to Consider • Desired outcome. The paper you choose should be appropriate for the project.
Paper that Might Not Work • Highly textured stock, such as linen, may not print evenly because the toner can bleed. • Extremely smooth, shiny, or coated papers not specifically designed for laser printers can jam the printer and repel toner. • Multi-part forms, such as duplicate or triplicate forms can wrinkle and jam; the toner is also more likely to smear. • Paper in poor condition — with tears, dust, wrinkles, curled or bent edges, or that doesn’t lie flat can jam the printer.
Using the Automatic Paper Input Tray You can stack paper or transparencies in the automatic paper tray to feed automatically. The automatic tray can hold a maximum of 150 sheets of plain paper. The maximum capacity may be reduced depending on the thickness. For best results, adjust the paper settings each time you change paper (see page 4.10). Note: If you experience feeding problems, try printing one at a time from the manual input tray. See page 4.5. 1.
• For transparencies: - Hold the transparencies by the edges and avoid touching the print side. - Fan the stack of transparencies to prevent feeding failures. Be careful not to scratch or leave fingerprints on the print sides. 3. Load the print material into the paper tray. Do not overload the tray. Neatly stacking the paper before loading will help prevent print problems. Do not mix types. See the following directions to load each type of print material. • Load paper with the print side facing up.
4. Slide both paper adjusters to fit against the paper’s edges. Ensure that the paper line is flat in the tray. Print Side Up Most paper prints better on one side than on the other. This is especially true for coated or specially treated paper. The print side is usually indicated on the paper package. Be sure to insert the paper into the paper tray of the printer with the print side up.
Notes: • Make sure that you select the Manual for Paper Source and the correct paper size and type from your software application before starting your print job. See page 4.10. • When you use the manual paper tray, the paper must be loaded in the automatic paper tray. By doing so, you can prevent a paper jam which could occur in the manual tray. 1. Place the print media in the manual input tray with print side facing up and adjust the paper guides to the width of the print media.
• Load a sheet of the label with the adhesive backing facing away from you. • Load a sheet of the card stock with print side up, short edge first. 2. In your computer, start printing the document. the display on the front panel will display ‘PC PRINTING...’ and ‘PRESS START.’ 3. Press START/ENTER to start manual feeding. If you have more than one page to print, press START/ENTER for each page. Printing 4.
Specialty Paper Guidelines • Read all instructions that come with specialty paper for important information regarding how to achieve the highest print quality. • It is recommended to feed one sheet at a time for special paper types. • For transparency film, follow these guidelines: - Let printed sheets of film dry completely before storing.
