Starting Rate (Selecting a Communication Mode)
You can select a communication mode based on the features of the remote machine.
G3 is the international standard for facsimile transmissions established by the ITU-T.
Important • When the speed dialing, one touch buttons, group dial numbers, or address book is used to
specify a recipient registered in an address number, the communications mode currently set
to the address number is set and cannot be changed. For information on how to register
address numbers, refer to "5 Tools" > "Setup" > "Add Address Book Entry" in the
Administrator Guide.
Note • The default communication mode can be changed in the System Administration mode. For
information on how to change the default mode, refer to "5 Tools" > "Fax Service Settings" >
"Fax Defaults" > "Starting Rate" in the Administrator Guide.

Set the communication mode.
îš„G3 Auto
Select this mode if the remote machine is G3
compatible. This mode is the one normally
selected.
In accordance with the reception capabilities
of the remote machine, the machine
automatically switches modes in the following order: G3 Unique ECM J G3 Unique J
ITU-T G3 ECM J ITU-T G3.
îš„Forced 4800 bps
Select this mode when transmitting over noisy or poor telephone lines, as can be the
case with overseas calls.
Also select this mode when transmitting over noisy or poor telephone lines
domestically.
îš„G4 Auto
Do not use this mode.
Note • [G4 Auto] is displayed on when Internet Fax Kit is installed. This setting applies the
transmission speed between the fax gateway and destination fax for the Internet Fax.
About Forced 4800 bps
You can communicate with faxes overseas via telephone company exchanges, etc.
Note • The international telephone networks are originally designed for voice communications.
Noise that does not really affect voice communications causes a problem with fax
communications. It may result in the deterioration of images quality, the inability to transmit a
fax, or even terminate the transmission. Regardless of whether transmission is successful,
you are charged for the call once the line is connected. For information on line trouble and
call charges, contact your telephone company.
• If you select [F4800], the transmission time may be longer because transmission is
performed at 4800 bps or less to ensure transmission is successful.
