Fax Operation (Basic) 2-3
• Direct Feed Transmission mode (Transmitting from the platen)
This mode is ideal for transmitting books and the like that cannot
be placed in the Document Processor. Documents are set one at
a time directly on the platen, the destination fax number is then
dialed first, and – once the connection with the other fax
machine is established – scanning of the document begins and
the document is transmitted.
This process is carried out for each page that you want to
transmit and it is necessary, after each page is scanned, to
select whether or not you want to transmit more pages. (Refer to
If the Documents Were Set on the Platen... on page 2-8.)

Notes on acceptable documents
• If documents with very low contrast images or light colored text
are transmitted, they may not be received clearly by the other
party.
• MAKE SURE that documents written in ink or containing glue,
etc., have dried COMPLETELY before setting them for
transmission.
• When setting documents in the Document Processor, ALWAYS
set documents AFTER removing any clips and staples as they
can cause damage to the machine.
• Documents of sizes outside the prescribed range may not be
transmitted successfully.
• If documents with punch holes are set in the Document
Processor for transmission, gray streaks may appear on the
documents received by the other party. In this case, set the
documents in a different direction and try to transmit them again.
