Specifying the fax settings
Before you can begin using the device fax features, you must complete the following tasks:
● Setting the time and date
● Setting the fax header
Note
If you are installing the device software on your computer, you can skip the remaining
instructions in this chapter. The software installer automatically helps you to set up the fax
settings, unless you are using Microsoft Windows® 95 or Windows NT®. See the electronic
User Guide for instructions.
In the United States and many other regions/countries, setting the time, date, and other fax
header information is a legal requirement.
To enter text from the control panel
Use the following instructions to enter information from the device control panel with the
alphanumeric buttons and the <andthe > buttons:
● Numbers: To enter numbers, press the numeric button for the number that you need.
● Letters: To enter letters, repeatedly press the numeric button for the letter that you need
until that letter appears. (For example, if the first letter that you need is a “C,” press 2
repeatedly until a C appears in the control panel display.)
● Punctuation marks: To enter punctuation marks, repeatedly press * until the character
that you need appears in the control panel display.
● Spaces: After entering any character, press the > button twice to create a space after
that character and move the cursor to an insertion point after the space.
● Errors: If you enter a character incorrectly, use the < button to erase the incorrect
character, and then enter the correct character.
