   Fax dialing settings

   Menu item	Description
   Fax Dial Volume	Use the Fax Dial Volume setting to control the printer's dialing volume level when sending faxes.
   Dialing Mode	The Dialing Mode setting sets the type of dialing that is used: either tone (touch-tone phones), or pulse (rotary-dial phones).
   Fax Send Speed	The Fax Send Speed setting sets the modem bit rate (measured in bits per second) of the Analog Fax modem while sending a fax. Fast (default): v.34/max 33,600 bps Medium: v.17/max 14,400 bps Slow: v.29/max 9,600 bps
   Redial Interval	The Redial Interval setting selects the number of minutes between retries if the number dialed is busy or not answering, or if an error occurs. Note: You might observe a redial message on the control panel when both the Redial On Busy and Redial On No Answer settings are set to off. This occurs when the fax accessory dials a number, establishes a connection, and then loses the connection. As a result of this error condition, the fax accessory performs three automatic redial attempts regardless of the redial settings. During this redial operation, a message displays on the control panel to indicate that a redial is in progress.
   Redial On Error	The Redial On Error feature sets the number of times a fax number will be redialed when an error occurs during a fax transmission.
   Redial On Busy	The Redial On Busy setting selects the number of times (0 through 9) the fax accessory redials a number when the number is busy. The interval between retries is set by the Redial Interval setting.
   Redial On No Answer	The Redial On No Answer setting selects the number of times the fax accessory redials if the number dialed does not answer. The number of retries is either 0 to 1 (used in the U.S.) or 0 to 2, depending on the country/region setting. The interval between retries is set by the redial interval setting.
   Detect Dial Tone	The Detect Dial Tone setting determines whether the fax checks for a dial tone before sending a fax.
   Dialing Prefix	The Dialing Prefix setting allows you to enter a prefix number (such as a "9" to access an outside line) when dialing. This prefix number is automatically added to all phone numbers when dialed.

   Line Monitor Volume	Use the Line Monitor Volume setting to control the printer's dialing volume level when sending faxes.

2. Open the following menus:

   1. Fax Settings

   2. Fax Send Settings

   3. Fax Send Setup

   4. General Fax Send Settings

3. Configure any of the following settings:

   General fax send settings

   Menu item	Description
   Fax Number Confirmation	When the Fax Number Confirmation feature is enabled, the fax number must be entered twice to ensure that it was entered correctly. The feature is disabled by default.
   PC Fax Send	Use the PC Fax Send feature to send faxes from a PC. This feature is enabled by default.
   Fax Header	Use the Fax Header feature to control whether the header is appended to the top, and content is shifted down, or if the header is overlaid on top of the previous header.
   JBIG Compression	Enabling the JBIG Compression feature can reduce phone-call charges by reducing fax transmission time and might be the preferred setting. However, using this feature might cause compatibility problems when communicating with some older fax machines, in which case you might need to disable it. Note: The JBIG Compression feature works only when both the sending and receiving machines have this capability.
   Error Correction Mode	Normally, the fax accessory monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If the fax accessory detects an error during the transmission and the Error Correction Mode setting is on, the fax accessory can request that the error portion of the fax be sent again. This feature is enabled by default. You should turn it off only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and if you are willing to accept the errors in the transmission and a probable quality reduction in the image. Turning off the setting might be useful when you are trying to send a fax overseas or receive one from overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone connection. Note: Some VoIP providers might suggest turning off this setting. However, this is not usually necessary.
   Fax Number Speed Dial Matching	Enabling the Fax Number Speed Dial Matching can help when dialing faxes. When you dial a fax number manually, this feature checks the stored speed dial entries for a number that matches the number you entered. This can speed the dialing process and help you if you do not remember the speed dial entry number for a given fax number. If the printer finds a matching speed dial entry for the fax number entered manually, you can select Yes to send the fax to that number or have the number added to the fax distribution list.
