Welcome to your Muratec fax machine!

We know you want to use your machine now, without first having to

climb over a mountain of jargon.

Find your serial number and write it down

So we’ve divided these instructions into three sections.

Before you go any further, please note that

your machine’s serial number is located on the

bar code label as shown on the drawing at

right. It’s probably a good idea for you to copy

this down before you set up your machine.

Use the blank at the bottom of this column.

•

“Gettin g sta r ted ” (see page 1.1) covers only what you absolutely

have to know to use your machine immediately.

•

“Beyon d th e ba sics” (see page 2.1) provides more details. When

you have time, look through it to learn more about your machine’s

many features, as well as fax in general.

IC and ID

label

Note: The IC label and ID label, required by

government regulations, do not con-

tain serial number information.

Bar cord

label

•

Finally, “J u st in ca se … ” (see page 3.1) will help you decide what

to do if you ever have a problem with your machine. It also tells

you how to give your machine the kind of easy, sensible care that

should help keep troubles to a minimum.

Laser printer

label

Close up, the bar code label looks some-

thing like this:

The next two pages show the entire contents of these instructions.

Skim through them now if you’d like (they’ll prove more helpful as

time passes), or just go on past them to “Getting started” and, well,

get started!

Im p or ta n t: This is not the exact number which appears on your machine’s label.

This is only gives you an idea of how your label will look.

Now, please copy down your machine’s serial number below for future reference,

and note the machine’s model number:

And thanks for choosing Muratec.

A quick introduction to fax in general

What’s a fax document?

What’s a fax number?

Because your fax operates on standard phone lines, a fax number is just a regular

phone number. And, because your fax is also a high-quality, full-featured telephone,

your fax number can be your regular phone number — just add an optional handset

to your fax. Or you can dedicate a phone number to your fax, letting you use one

number just for ordinary voice calls and one just for fax.

What are resolution and grayscale?

J ust as cars are measured by engine size, and stereo systems are measured by

watts per channel, so fax machines are measured by resolution and grayscale.

Resolution refers to the sharpness of a fax transmission. It’s expressed in lines per

inch (lpi). An international agency has defined three specific levels of resolution:

•

Normal (203 × 98 vertical lpi)

Fine (203 × 196 lpi)

Superfine (203 × 392 lpi).

Similarly, one can judge a fax transmission by its number of grayscale levels, or

shades of gray — really, halftones such as you might see in a newspaper photo. It’s

likely most of your fax documents will be dark text on white paper. However, when

you want to send photographs and other shaded items, you can set your fax

machine to transmit in 64-level grayscale.

So why not always set your fax machine for superfine,

or for grayscale?

Because these settings make your machine send more information, making trans-

missions last longer and (on long-distance calls) driving up your phone bills. That’s

why, as you’ll see, we’ve made it easy for you to set your fax machine for the most

efficient, and truest, transmission of the types of documents you send!

COMMUNICATION ligh t — If glowing, advises you the fax machine is communi-

cating with another machine.

SP EED DIAL/TEL INDEX — Starts a speed-dialing operation, which you finish by

pushing three of the keys on the numeric keypad. Also displays one-touch and

speed-dial entries sorted alphanumerically, as in a telephone directory.

ALARM ligh t — If glowing, indicates a problem has occurred during fax com-

munication, printing or scanning. (It’s also accompanied by several beeps

immediately after the problem occurs.) The light stays lit until the machine

AUTO ANSWER — Selects which mode your fax machine uses to handle incom-

ing calls: answering automatically as a fax machine (auto-answer mode) or

waiting for the user to pick up an optional, connected handset (manual-

answer mode). The AUTO ANSWER ligh t next to this key will glow when

auto-answer mode is the current choice.

You’re in control!

We’ve worked hard to make sure your fax machine is easy for you to use. Let’s make

sure there’s no confusion about how to operate it. Below are simple operating tips:

START — Begins a manual fax transmission or reception.

COP Y — Press this key to make one copy, or multiple copies of a document.

STOP — An all-purpose “Whoa!” key. Stops the current operation, ejects a doc-

ument from the document feeder and cancels alarms.

To press: 0 (zero), 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, # or *

Use:

Tip:

The numeric keypad.

F LASH — Lets you quickly disconnect a call and go right to the next one with-

out having to hang up the handset.

At no other time within this manual will we refer to the letters printed

below the numeric keys and their uses (such as accessing abc by pressing

the 2 key.) These letters are there only for your convenience in using your

fax machine as a telephone.

STAMP — Press this key to set the machine to stamp each page of the original

document automatically when the machine transmits it. The STAMP ligh t

next to this key glows when this operation is activated.

To press:

Use:

Tip:

or any other letter key

REP ORT — Press this key to turn on (or off) the confirmation report feature for

the next fax transmission. If the REP ORT ligh t next to this key is glowing,

your machine will print the confirmation report for the next fax transmission

only. Otherwise, your machine will disable the printing.

The one-touch key by that name.

Please don’t confuse the zero (0) with the letter

Here’s an example. If we say “press P ROGRAM, 7, ENTER, 0, 8, ENTER” …

ENTER — Much as STOP is a “Whoa!” key, ENTER is a “Go!” key. It confirms

user settings, begins operations and moves through command levels.

… you’d press P ROGRAM

… then

… then ENTER

… then 0 (the numeric key zero)

CANCEL — Press this key to delete characters on the LCD and cancel com-

mands you have entered into the machine.

… then

— The right arrow button scrolls (moves) through features and command

options displayed on the LCD.

… and then, finally ENTER

Im p or ta n t: Although our example above includes commas, do not enter them into

the fax machine. Those characters appear in our instructions to sepa-

rate one number from the other, and are not intended for actual entry

by using your control panel.

MONITOR/CALL — During on-hook dialing, it turns the monitor speaker off or

on. When it’s on, it allows you to hear the call you’re making. When using this

feature, you can only hear the communication taking place. You cannot be

heard unless you are using a handset (optional). When you’re sending a fax,

this key also activates the call request feature.

There is a function (broadcasting) which requires the entry of

commas, but there is a special way to enter them. We will explain this

process when the time comes.

— The left arrow button scrolls through features and command options

displayed on the LCD.

COM-OP TIONS — Chooses from among five fax options: delayed transmission,

relay broadcast, polling, F-code transmission or F-code polling.

P ROGRAM — Any function can be started by first pressing this key and then

entering the function number.

BROADCAST — Helps you send a broadcast fax (sending the same document to

more than one location).

CONTRAST — When a document is in the document feeder, press this key to

toggle among normal, dark or light contrast settings.

RESOLUTION — When a document is in the document feeder, press this key to

toggle among the three resolution modes and the halftone (grayscale) mode.

Setting up

Pick an installation spot before going ahead

Where should you install your fax machine? The location should be:

Install the printing supplies

Your fax machine prints incoming faxes and copies with a laser print engine. The

engine requires two types of printing supplies (sometimes also called consumables):

•

Clea n — Dust buildup can damage your machine. (Still, do not use a cover! See

next item.)

•

The drum cartridge — It yields 20,000 normal letter-sized printouts (see “Specifi-

cations,” page AI.1). By “normal,” we’re referring to the amount of text and/or

graphics on each page. This is based on an industry-standard test document.

•

In th e op en — Allow at least 12″ of clearance around your machine. Be sure

that you never cover the machine. Its vents must be able to “breathe.”

•

The toner cartridge — It yields 5,500 “normal”, letter-sized printouts (see

“Specifications,” page AI.1).

Note: The toner cartridge included with your machine is a starter cartridge which

yields 3,600 printouts (see “Specifications,” page AI.1). Please purchase

regular, full-yield toner cartridges from your authorized Muratec dealer.

•

Aw a y fr om d ir ect su n ligh t — This helps avoid overheating.

Dr y — Avoid any location where splatters or sprays (such as from a water foun-

tain) could reach your fax machine.

•

Level, a n d vibr a tion -fr ee.

Nea r a p h on e ja ck — Your fax machine uses a standard (“modular”) telephone

jack, also known as an RJ -11.

Here’s how to install these supplies.

•

cover by pressing the

printer cover release.

Powerful tips

• Use a sta n d a r d th r ee-pr on ged 120 VAC ou tlet.

Unpack the drum cartridge from its box.

• Ma k e su r e th e ou tlet isn ’t con tr olled by a w a ll sw itch .

If it is, you’ll risk inadvertent shutoffs of your machine, causing

you to lose fax messages.

Im p or ta n t: Sh ield th e d r u m ca r tr id ge fr om ligh t, esp ecia lly str on g

ligh t. Later, if you have to remove the cartridge from the fax,

immediately wrap it in a thick cloth to protect it from light.

• Don ’t u se a n ou tlet w h ich a lso is su p p lyin g p ow er to a

la r ge a p p lia n ce, such a refrigerator or air conditioner.

Such high-consumption appliances can cause “draw-downs”

(temporary drops in the power available for other equipment on

the circuit) which could damage your fax machine.

Put the drum cartridge into the printer

by aligning the cartridge’s protrusions

with the slits inside the printer frame.

•

Use a n electr ica l su r ge su ppr essor , preferably one which guards both tele-

phone and electrical lines. This device helps to shield your fax machine from

damaging high-voltage electrical surges.

Im p or ta n t: You must also reset the

drum counter. See “When

Getting started

Loading paper

Your fax machine can hold up to 150 sheets of plain paper in the multipurpose tray,

and your machine will use it to print received faxes and make copies. You can also

attach an optional paper cassette, which holds up to 500 additional sheets of plain

paper. Contact your authorized Muratec dealer for more information on the optional

paper cassette.

Unpack the toner cartridge from its carton.

Then, holding the toner cartridge with both

hands, shake it well as shown (note the arrows).

Install the toner cartridge in the printer, making sure that the cartridge’s

four pins (two each at the front and rear sides) fit in the slits inside the

printer frame.

The following instructions tell you how to load the paper correctly, which will help

to prevent paper jams and other problems.

Loading the multipurpose tray

You may use either letter- or legal-sized paper in the multipurpose tray, but not

both at the same time. Do not mix paper sizes in one tray.

Adjust the multipurpose tray for the

length of paper you plan to load. Pull

slightly upward on the paper-length

you’ve loaded (see

page 1.8 for details).

Note: The fax machine will not work if the

cover isn’t closed properly.

Slightly “fan” the paper you will be loading, to help ensure smooth feeding.

Insert up to 150 sheets of paper into the tray. Make sure the paper-length

guide and the paper width guide now fit against the paper’s edges.

When you install a new drum cartridge

Im p or ta n t: To avoid paper jams, do not refill this tray without first remov-

ing all of the paper in it. Do not add sheets to an already-loaded

stack.

Im p or ta n t: Use this setting only when you are installing a new drum cartridge.

Your fax machine keeps track of how many pages go through the drum cartridge to

let you know when the drum needs to be replaced. So, whenever you install a new

drum cartridge, you must “notify” the machine by resetting the drum counter.

(Before resetting it the very first time, you’ll have to finish installing the machine

and then turn it on [see page 1.8].) Here’s how to reset the drum counter:

Press P ROGRAM, , 2, 0. The LCD will show:

Press MONITOR/CALL again to hang up.

Attaching an optional handset

If you purchase an optional handset for your fax machine, it comes with installation

instructions. However, here is a summary of how to attach the handset.

Attaching a second phone

Want to attach a second phone (even a cordless model!) to your fax machine, so they

can share the same phone jack? No problem.

Im p or ta n t: Do not connect the handset directly to a telephone wall jack. Connect

the handset only to your fax machine as the instructions describe.

Using a small Phillips-head screwdriver, attach the handset cradle to the side

of your fax machine using the screws included with the cradle.

Before we go further, let’s explain the idea. You’re plugging the second phone’s

phone line into your fax machine’s EXT. TEL jack, not the wall phone jack. In such a

setup, only your fax machine connects to the wall. The second phone receives phone

signals through your fax machine.

Plug one end of the handset cord (it’s curled) into the

HANDSET jack on the rear of your fax machine.

Now, let’s proceed …

Plug the other end of the handset cord into the jack on the handset. If con-

nected to a phone line, your fax machine is now “off-hook.”

If your second phone is already plugged into a wall phone jack, disconnect it

from that jack, at the jack. Hold onto the phone plug; you’ll need it in step 2.

Note: The handset has a small “flash” button which you can press while

holding the handset, putting the fax machine back “on-hook” until you

can hang up the handset properly in step 4.

Note: If your telephone is a model which also requires AC power, as is true

for the base of a cordless phone, don’t unplug it from its AC power

jack!

Place the telephone handset onto the handset cradle. The cradle will press

the handset’s “flash” button, hanging up the handset.

Installation complete!

Sending faxes

Reviewing Contrast:

Some guidelines

The rightmost item appearing on the LCD (when there’s a document in the feeder) is

the contrast setting. You have three choices:

How big — and small — your pages can be

While you’ll probably be sending normal-sized documents most of the time, you can

fax a piece of paper as small as a notepad sheet or one nearly 3 feet long!

•

Normal (“NORM” on the control panel) — Suited to most documents.

Light — Lightens up overly dark, “muddy” original documents.

Dark — Darkens weak, “washed-out” images.

To be precise, the acceptable dimensions (width × length) are:

SINGLE-SHEET TRANSMISSION

MULTIPLE-SHEET TRANSMISSION

Note: Until you become accustomed to using the Light and Dark settings, you

might tend to confuse them. J ust remember what we say above — “Light

lightens” and “Dark darkens” — to keep it straight!

Maximum: 11.0″ ×35.4″

Maximum: 10.1″ ×14.4″

Minimum:

5.8″ × 4.1″

Minimum:

5.8″ × 4.1″

Things not to put in your fax

To avoid paper jams and damage to your machine, please d on ’t in ser t:

Entering a pause character when dialing

Your fax machine provides special dialing characters which you may find useful.

We’ll discuss most of them later (see page 2.8), but you may need to know now

about the pause character. Some long-distance systems require dialing pauses, and

pauses can be useful also when you’re dialing through special telephone exchanges.

•

Folded, curled, torn, wrinkled or very thin pages

Documents with staples, glue, tape, paper clips or still-wet correction fluid

“Sticky notes” (or documents with “sticky notes” attached)

Cardboard, newspaper or fabric

To insert a pause character, just press REDIAL/P AUSE (after you’ve dialed at least one

other character). -/(the pause character) will appear on the display.

Pages with duplicating carbon on either side

Each pause you enter lasts for a factory-set five seconds (see “Changing the pause

length,” next page, for how to change this setting).

Credit cards or similar small, thick items

For example, assuming the pause is at the factory setting, pressing 9,

REDIAL/P AUSE, 19725552009 dials 9 [5-second pause] 1 9 7 2 5 5 5 2 0 0 9.

Some thoughts on resolution, grayscale and contrast

Im p or ta n t: Each pause uses two of the characters you’re allowed in a number.

Reviewing resolution and grayscale:

•

Normal resolution (“NORM” on the control panel) is suitable for most typed docu-

ments and simple drawings.

Fine resolution (“FINE” on the control panel) is ideal for maps, moderately compli-

cated drawings, floorplans or handwritten documents.

Superfine resolution (“S-FINE” on the control panel; “S Fine” on the LCD) repro-

duces the detail of extremely complicated drawings or line art.

Grayscale mode (“HALFTONE” on the control panel; “Gray” on the LCD) captures

shades in photos and drawings.

Note: If you send a fax in superfine, certain fax models (especially older, non-

Muratec models) will receive it only in fine mode. However, you can send a

fax in grayscale mode to virtually any fax machine currently in use.

Changing the pause length

How to insert a document

The pause is set by the factory to last five seconds, but you can set it to last as long

as ten seconds if necessary. If you find the five-second pause is satisfactory when

you use it with your phone system, do not make this change. But, if you must:

Adjust the document guides — by sliding either of them to the left or right —

to fit the page (s) you’ll be faxing. Your fax machine’s automatic document

feeder will hold up to 30 pages.

Press P ROGRAM, , 0, 5, ENTER.

Note: Your machine’s scanning width is 8.2″. When you insert a letter-sized

document, your machine scans the center 8.2″ and sends it unreduced

(see pages 2.3–2.4 for more on reduction). This means that there will

be a 0.15″ margin on each side of the page that your fax machine will

not scan.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (05-10):

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 3.

Otherwise, proceed to step 2.

If you’re sending a multi-page document, “fan”

the pages slightly. The bottom sheet should

extend just slightly from the others.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the desired length of the dialing pause.

Here, we’ve chosen nine seconds.

Set Dialing Pause

Time (05-10):

Insert the document fa ce u p . The fax machine

will “grab” the first page of the document and

position it for faxing. (If need be, readjust the

document guides for the best fit.)

Note: The length setting requires two digits, so there always must be a lead-

ing zero for lengths other than 10 seconds.

The LCD will now show the scanning width set-

ting and the amount of memory available:

Press ENTER to save the setting.

Potential problems with call-waiting and voice mail

Telephone call-waiting signals can stop fax transmission and reception. And, of

course, any service — such as voice mail — which may intercept your calls can keep

your fax machine from getting fax calls.

Memory100%

Speaking of memory . . .

If you must use only one phone line, please consult your telephone company for

information on how you can temporarily disable call-waiting or voice mail while

using the fax machine.

Using memory transmission

Your fax machine has a great memory! Take advantage of it, and you could:

Sa ve Tim e. By using your fax machine’s memory, you won’t have to wait for your

machine while it completes the transmission. Simply scan your document into your

fax machine’s memory, and you can walk away with your original in hand.

Adjusting the machine for larger documents

If you’re using larger documents, you can adjust the document hopper and the docu-

ment tray. J ust flip the top up or down, as appropriate for your documents’ sizes.

Sa ve Mon ey. Here’s a real money-saver on long-distance fax calls: if you’re trans-

mitting to another memory-equipped Muratec fax machine, your machine will send

the document directly into the other machine’s memory and hang up! (The receiving

machine then prints out your message from its memory after the call has ended.)

This cuts your actual on-line time to a minimum.

Sa ve Even Mor e Mon ey. Set up a delayed command (see pages 2.19–2.20) to send

your document to that other Muratec fax machine after hours, and you can save

more money, because the line charges will be cheaper.

You can set your fax to always transmit from memory as a default.

Press Start

919725552009_

Note: Although it’s probably best to transmit from memory, please note there are

some documents that use up memory more quickly than others. They include

documents with many pages and documents with a lot of dark areas, since

darker pages create more data for your fax machine to “remember” and

send. When the machine’s memory supply is full, it can transmit only

through the document feeder.

As you can see, you also enter any access codes (such as a 9 for “dialing out”

from an office telephone system, or 1 for long-distance) along with the num-

ber, just as you would for a regular phone call.

Press START.

To make memory transmission the default:

Now, everything is up to the machines — yours and the one you’re dialing.

Press P ROGRAM, , 1, 3, ENTER.

If you have set the fax to transmit from memory, your machine will first

scan the document into memory, then dial the other fax. When it makes

contact, your machine transmits the stored document from memory.

Memory Tx:

Program/Enter

•

If the fax is set for non-memory transmission, your machine simply dials

the other fax. When it makes contact, your machine feeds the document

through, scanning and transmitting it as it goes.

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 3.

Otherwise, proceed to step 2.

To change the setting, press P ROGRAM once or twice until your chosen mode

appears. In this example, we’ve chosen Off.

Note: The more “stuff” (or black coverage, to use the fax term) your machine

“sees” on a page, the more slowly the page will feed through as the fax

scans it — especially when you transmit in non-memory mode. Even

if the page itself is relatively clean, sending it in grayscale mode or

certain resolution settings makes your machine “see” more “stuff.”

The same is true if you set the contrast to Dark.

Making redial settings

It’s up to you how many times the fax redials a number and how long it waits between

redials (that length of time between calls is the redial interval). Here’s how to program

the redial settings:

An introduction to Review Commands

To cancel either a transmission in progress, an automatic redial or a delayed com-

mand, you’ll use the Review Commands function. First, a short explanation . . .

•

Because your fax machine can store multiple commands in memory, it keeps

track of each command by assigning it a command number, like “C01.”

Press P ROGRAM, , 0, 7, ENTER.

Delayed commands, redial attempts and current fax transmissions are all stored

in your fax machine’s memory and given a command number.

Set # Of Redials

(02-15):

The Review Commands function gives you the power not only to check on (review)

each command currently in your machine’s memory but also to delete a command if

you decide not to send the document.

If the number of redialings you see is acceptable, skip to step 3.

Otherwise, proceed to step 2.

To change the setting, use the numeric keypad to enter the desired number of

redialings, as few as two or as many as 15. In this example, we’ve entered 03,

for three.

Note: Press STOP to cancel a transmission in progress when you are transmitting

from the document feeder. (You cannot use the REVIEW COMMANDS key.)

Press REVIEW COMMANDS.

The LCD shows the first command, indicated by its command number and the

phone number the command will dial. If a command is in progress, that will

be the first command the LCD shows:

To change the setting, use the numeric keypad to enter the desired length (in

minutes). You may enter 3, 4 or 5. In this example, we’ve chosen 4.

If you do want to cancel this command, press CANCEL again.

Set Redial Interval

The LCD now shows the next command.

If you want to cancel it, too, go back to step 4.

If you want to avoid cancelling this command but do want to review other

commands in the queue, press P ROGRAM and go back to step 2.

Receiving faxes

Different ways to get the job done

Tel Ready mode — when Auto Answer is off

Use it if:

• You intend to use the same line for both fax and phone calls

and

• On that line, you’re using at least one other phone which is not

connected to your fax machine

and

Reception modes

Your fax machine has two different reception modes — Tel Ready and Fax Ready —

each of which we’ll explain in a moment. We’ll also give you an idea of which one

you should use, depending upon your setup.

• You have installed an optional handset on your fax machine.

Answering calls manually — for both reception modes

In either reception mode, you can always answer calls manually if you have an

optional handset installed. J ust pick it up, as you would if using a normal phone.

In th is m od e: Your fax machine never answers calls automatically. You must

answer each call as described in “Answering calls manually — for

both reception modes” (this page, left column).

To select Tel Ready:

If you hear someone speaking to you, use your

optional handset to have a normal phone call.

If there isn’t a document in the feeder, skip to step 2.

If there’s a document in the feeder, press STOP so it will feed out.

Press AUTO ANSWER once or twice until the Auto Answer light is off and the

LCD shows:

Tel Ready

If you hear distinctive fax tones (“beep — beep

— beep — beep”), press START and hang up the

optional handset. Your fax machine will begin

receiving a fax.

Dec 11 1998 20:30

It’s easy to make the switch

To toggle between Tel Ready and Fax Ready (see page 1.18), turn off Auto Answer.

Note: Don’t try to answer a call by pressing

MONITOR/CALL. The monitor function is

for on-hook dialing only.

(To maintain Tel Ready as your default mode, just leave Auto Answer off.)

Answering fax calls using another phone, not the fax machine

If you have one phone line ringing to several phones in your office and you have an

optional handset attached to your fax, there’s no need to run to the fax machine to

answer every call. If you happen to answer a fax call while you’re at another exten-

sion within the same office, put the handset down, but don’t hang up. Walk to the

fax machine and pick up the optional handset. Then press START.

After you press START, you must hang up both the fax machine’s handset and the

second telephone’s handset. Because remote fax machines will wait several seconds

to hear reception tones from your unit, you have about 30 seconds to walk to your

fax, pick up the handset, and press START.

Receiving when out of paper

If your machine runs out of paper while you’re away, it will store up to 50 fax recep-

tions (see the note, below) in its memory. This is called out-of-paper reception. Then,

when you refill the paper supply, the fax machine will print the stored messages

automatically. This is a useful feature, especially for overnight and weekend ses-

sions.

Note: How many pages (not receptions) your fax machine can store for out-of-

paper reception will vary. It depends on your machine’s memory capacity

and it also depends on the types of documents being sent to your machine

and the documents’ resolution settings. (See Specifications, page AI.1)

your fax machine. (You might wish

to review “Things not to put in your

fax,” page 1.12.)

Press COP Y to begin the copying process.

Note: The fax machine offers dual-access performance, and can carry out a fax

transmission already programmed in memory while it is copying.

However, the fax cannot send a document from the feeder nor scan a docu-

ment into memory while copying/printing.

Beyond the basics

Reduction margin

Your fax machine’s reduction margin is measured in millimeters (mm). We’ll define

it by explaining how it’s used:

Making settings for copying

You can set three parameters for copying:

•

Copy sort/stack — Your fax machine can either sort or stack multiple copies of a

document. If it stacks them, it will make four copies of a two-page document as:

1, 1, 1, 1 — 2, 2, 2, 2. If it sorts them, it will make four copies of the same two-

page documents as: 1, 2 — 1, 2 — 1, 2 — 1, 2.

When a fax message enters your machine’s electronic brain, the machine measures

the message’s length and compares it to (a ) the length of your selected paper p lu s

(b) the reduction margin you set. If the length of the incoming message is shorter

than the sum of (a ) and (b), your machine prints the message on just one sheet;

otherwise, it prints the message on more than one sheet.

(If the sorting copy is “Off”, the fax machine will stack.)

•

Copy reduction rate — Works the same way as the print reduction rate (see page

2.3 for more details).

Note: An Auto reduction setting and a reduction margin setting of 40mm will

print most incoming faxes as single pages. Try this combination first and

then, only if you have problems with it, select different settings.

Reduction margin — Serves the same purpose as the reduction margin for print-

ing (see earlier information on this page).

You set both in the same operation, as with the printing settings.

Adjusting the print settings

Note: The same options, in terms of both reduction settings and reduction mar-

gins, are available for copy reduction as for print reduction. (If necessary,

review the preceding discussion, “Making settings for printing faxes,” begin-

ning on page 2.3.) The difference, here, is that you probably are better off

with a setting of 00 on the reduction margin.

Setting ECM

Copy Reduc Rate: 75%

Program/Enter

Ever hear static on the line during a phone call? It’s a real nuisance — but, worse, it

may ruin your attempts to communicate via fax. This is because “line noise” can

easily disrupt the flow of data from one fax machine to another.

Press ENTER to save the setting. The LCD shows the current setting for the

reduction margin:

That’s why your fax machine gives you the chance of operating in Error Correction

Mode (ECM). When two fax machines communicate while running in ECM, the send-

ing machine automatically checks the data, “block” by “block,” as it sends. If the

receiving fax machine can’t verify the transmission, the first machine will re-send

as necessary. (Essentially, the sending machine asks, “Did you ‘hear’ that seg-

ment?” and the other machine answers either “Yeah; go on” or “No; try it again.”)

Margin(0-85mm): 24

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 7.

Otherwise, proceed to step 6.

To change the setting, use the numeric keypad to enter the reduction margin

Note: While using ECM gives you a better chance of getting a fax document

through a troublesome phone line, it also could slow down the transmission

time — and increasingly so in proportion to how bad the phone line is.

Beyond the basics

Autodialer

Your fax machine’s autodialer is one of its most versatile features. It stores your

most frequently called phone and fax numbers for instant recall so you don’t have to

remember them. Now, it’s easy to dial even the most complicated international

calls!

Special dialing characters

Which number do you find easier to read: 919725552009 or 9-1-972-555-2009?

Obviously, it’s the second one. The hyphen (or dash) character (“-”) separates the

number into its various parts — in this example, a 9 for outside-line access, a 1 for

long-distance access, the area code and the phone number.

Imagine how much more important this can be if you also have to use special long-

distance access codes, country codes for international calling, etc.

Autodialer basics

Also, certain calls require special symbols besides just numerals to get through. If

you make calls to other countries — or just have your fax machine on an unusual

phone system — you’ll want to be able to put the appropriate characters in the

numbers you store.

How do you autodial?

There are two kinds of autodialer numbers. The difference between the two is how

you access them:

That’s why your fax machine allows you to enter special dialing characters. Here’s a

brief description of these characters, as well as how you can put them in the num-

bers you store in the autodialer:

•

One-touch — Pressing one of the keys, marked

of the control panel.

–

and U1–U4, on the right side

•

Speed-dial — Pressing SP EED DIAL/TEL INDEX followed by a three-digit identifier,

from 001 to 100.

Ch a r . Wh a t it d oes

How many numbers can your fax store? A total of 130 — up to 30 one-touch num-

bers and up to 100 speed-dial numbers.

Which number is which?

Your fax machine’s autodialer will hold more than just fax numbers: you can store

Mom’s phone number along with your warehouse’s fax number.

Tells your fax machine to pause until it

“hears” a dial tone.

HOLD/DIALING OP TIONS

(3 times)

Enters a pause. Each pause lasts five

seconds (or whatever length you set; see

pages 1.12–1.13). Each pause uses two of

the characters you can store in one

phone number.

How? Because, when you use the autodialer to dial a number, the fax checks to see

whether there’s a document in the feeder. If there is, the machine dials as a fax

machine (i. e., dials while sending fax tones). If there isn’t, it dials as a phone.

Your machine also features a built-in EasyDial directory (see page 2.14). This lets

you enter your fax/phone numbers along with descriptive names. (Your machine

calls this name a Location ID.) The autodialer sorts these listings alphabetically so,

with EasyDial, you can look them up by name as if you were using a phone book!

If your fax machine is on a pulse (not

tone-dialing) line, switches from pulse-

dialing to tone (“DTMF”)-dialing. Use after

the actual phone number but before any

characters (such as a long-distance

carrier’s access code) which must be in

DTMF tone. Do not use on a tone line.

Press ENTER.

The LCD will display the next speed-dial number.

If you do not wish to enter any more speed-dial numbers, press STOP to finish.

If you do not wish to enter the currently displayed speed-dial number but do

want to enter another speed-dial number, go back to step 2.

The LCD now displays:

005:Name :Upper

West Coast Sales_

If you do wish to enter this speed-dial number, go back to step 4.

The machine now is prompting you for a name — a Location ID, remember? —

so you’ll be able to find it easily in the EasyDial directory (see page 2.14).

Fax dialing via speed-dial

To dial a fax call using a speed-dial number:

If you do not wish to enter or change this number’s Location ID, skip to step 9.

If you do wish to enter or change this number’s Location ID, proceed to step 8.

Insert the document.

A number’s Location ID may be up to 16 characters in length. You enter the

Location ID the same way you entered your fax name during EasyStart. We’ll

review the process, here. (If you’re changing a previously entered Location ID,

see the note at the end of this step.)

Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.

Toggle between transmission from the feeder or from memory if necessary, by

pressing MEMORY TRANSMIT.

Im p or ta n t: As in EasyStart, you enter letters and other non-numeric char-

acters through using the one-touch keys.

Press SP EED DIAL/TEL INDEX. The LCD will show:

Press START.

The machine will handle the call from here. The sequence will vary depending upon

whether you specified transmission from memory or transmission from the feeder.

This means pressing one-touch keys will enter lower-case letters: pressing

will produce an r (not an R) on the display.

To switch back for upper-case entries, press U1/ABC.

To enter spaces, punctuation and symbols, press U3/SYMBOL. This lets you

enter the blue characters shown on the one-touch keypad.

To enter a wide variety of characters, use the CODE function. (Review the

explanation on page 2.3.) Most of the time, you will probably find the ABC,

a bc and SYMBOL keys to be sufficient.

EasyDial directory dialing

When the LCD is showing the name you want to dial, press START.

•

If there is a document in the feeder, your machine will dial a fax call to the

selected autodialer number.

The EasyDial directory dialing feature makes your autodialer even more like an

electronic phone book. EasyDial sorts and displays numbers alphabetically accord-

ing to their Location IDs, so you can easily find them and dial them. When the name

you want appears, you just press START to begin a call (either phone or fax). Your

machine’s EasyDial directory alphabetizes in the following order: alphabet, num-

bers and, finally, symbols.

•

If there isn’t a document in the feeder, your machine will activate the mon-

itor speaker and dial a regular phone call. (Remember that, to make a

regular phone call from your machine, you must have attached an optional

handset.) At this point, you may either:

— Lift the handset now

If you want to use EasyDial to make a regular phone call, make sure there’s

no document in the feeder and then skip to step 4.

If you want to use EasyDial to send a fax, insert the document.

— Listen to the monitor speaker until you hear the other person answer,

and then lift the handset.

Adjust resolution and contrast if necessary.

What if an EasyDial call doesn’t go through?

If an EasyDial call fails (for example, because of a busy signal), what happens next

depends upon the kind of call it was.

If you want to toggle between transmission from memory and transmission

from the feeder, press MEMORY TRANSMIT.

Press SP EED DIAL/TEL INDEX twice. The LCD shows the alphabetically first listing

in your fax machine’s EasyDial directory:

If it was a fax call …

… Your fax machine automatically redials the number after the redial interval (see

page 1.16). It keeps trying until either of the following occurs first:

•

It successfully reaches the other number (and, if it’s a fax call, makes contact

with the machine on the other end).

Note: If your machine is currently holding any caller-IDs, it will show the

caller-ID directory (see pagea 2.26-2.27) on the LCD.

If you wish to avoid the caller-ID directory, press any key of 2, 4, 6 or 8

on the numeric keypad.

It has automatically redialed the number the last try (see page 1.15).

If it was a regular phone call …

Press REDIAL/P AUSE.

Scroll through the listings to find the one you want. You do this by pressing

certain keys on the numeric keypad:

•

2 or 8 to select the character set — alphabet, number or symbol — for the

first character of the Location ID.

•

4 or 6 to check different listings within that character set.

Note: The scrolling is “open-ended.” For example, when you run out of list-

ings beginning with alphabet “A”, pressing 4 or 6 automatically moves

you into listings beginning with other characters.

It’s a great phone, too

As you’ve probably guessed by now, your fax machine is a great phone, too! Let’s see

just how good it is by looking briefly at the machine’s telephone features.

On-hook dialing

Because your machine has a monitor speaker, you can dial without picking up the

handset. For hands-free dialing:

Im p or ta n t: All of the instructions on this page assume you have attached an

optional handset to your fax machine.

Press MONITOR/CALL. You’ll hear a dial tone (unless you have set your speaker

sure that attempt, too, was also a regular phone call. In a multi-user setting, some-

one else may have quickly sent a fax without your knowing it.)

Dial the number you want. You may use either the numeric keypad, a one-

touch key or a speed-dial number.

Note: Remember, your fax machine’s monitor speaker is not a speakerphone. Be

sure to pick up the handset if the other person answers!

You can put a call on hold during a conversation by pressing HOLD/DIALING OP TIONS.

Note: You can also dial a fax call this way if, for some reason, you want to hear

the other machine’s answering fax tones. (Make sure there’s a document in

the feeder.) When you do hear those tones, press START to send the docu-

ment.

The LCD will show:

** On Hold **

At this point, you can either hang up the handset or leave it off the hook. To return

to your conversation:

Changing the dialing type

If your fax machine is on a pulse (not tone-dialing) line, switch from pulse dialing to

tone (DTMF) dialing. Use the # (pound) key on the numeric keypad (the LCD will show)

after the actual phone number but before any characters (such as a long-distance

carrier’s access code) which must be in DTMF tone.

•

If you hung up the handset, pick it up.

If you didn’t hang up the handset, press HOLD/DIALING OP TIONS again.

You can EasyDial regular phone calls, too

J ust in case you didn’t notice, the EasyDial directory dialing feature is available for

regular phone calls as well as fax calls. Review the EasyDial instructions on page 2.14

for more information.

Note: Do not use on a tone line.

Note: When you hang up the handset, your machine will return to “pulse” dialing

for the next call.

Dialing in the event of a power failure

Your fax machine can receive a telephone call using your handset even in the event

of a power failure, but it cannot send or receive a fax document.

Beyond the basics

Broadcasting

Or to save time, you can dial many numbers at once by using the machine’s

Programmable keys. For more information, see “Programming a broadcast / Group”

on page 2.35.

The basics of broadcasting

The fastest way to fax one document to many recipients is by broadcasting — and

your fax machine has very powerful broadcasting capabilities. You ca n u se br oa d -

ca stin g fr om a n y fu n ction r equ ir in g th e en tr y of a fa x n u m ber ! That means

you can perform delayed broadcasting (see pages 2.19–2.20), polling broadcasting

(see pages 2.23–2.24) and even broadcasting to “hub” units for relay broadcast initi-

ation (see pages 2.17–2.18).

Delayed broadcasting

What if you want the broadcast to happen later? That’s the purpose of setting up a

delayed broadcast.

In an ordinary broadcast, you send the fax as you normally would, except for one

change: you just add more fax numbers! You can enter up to 150 numbers (20 nor-

mally dialed numbers, plus 130 autodialer numbers).

Note: The main discussion of delayed commands comes up in the “Delayed trans-

mission” section (pages 2.19–2.20). You may want to read that material

before proceeding.

We’ll assume you’ve become familiar with regular fax transmission, and we’ll

shorten the instructions a bit below.

Follow steps 1–4 of “The basics of broadcasting” (left column).

Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as usual.

Press COM-OP TIONS, ENTER.

Press BROADCAST.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the day of the month and time when you

want the fax to perform the broadcast. Here, we’ve set it to occur at 10:15 PM

on the 30th.

Enter the first fax number — a one-touch number, a speed-dial number or just

a regular number dialed from the numeric keypad as usual.

Delayed

Enter Time: 30/22:15

To add each successive fax number, press BROADCAST between each one to

insert a comma, then enter the number as in step 3. You can specify up to 150

numbers (see first paragraph, above) for a broadcast.

When finished, press ENTER to save the setting.

Now, press START. Your machine will return to its normal standby mode,

before proceeding.

Press START. Your fax machine will scan the document into memory and then

send it to each number you’ve entered.

The main idea is: when it’s time to enter the fax number for your document, you

enter multiple numbers until you’ve either reached 150 numbers or finished dialing

all the numbers you want to dial for this document.

Note: If you’re not sure whether the unit you want to transmit to is a true

A “hub” fax machine is one to which you send a document, so the “hub” can relay it to

other machines which you don’t actually call. The “hub” performs a relay broadcast,

and the machine which sends the original document to the “hub” has performed a

relay broadcast initiation. Your fax machine can only send to a “hub” unit (it cannot

be a “hub” unit).

“hub” unit, please consult your authorized Muratec dealer.

•

The call group(s) must exist on the remote fax machine.

You must know each call group’s two-digit identifier number.

To set up a relay broadcast initiation:

How it works

Insert the document and make any necessary adjustments as usual.

Let’s say you’re in Los Angeles and need to fax the same document to four locations

in the Chicago area. You could send four normal fax transmissions, but that would

be four long-distance calls. But with relay broadcast initiation, you send the docu-

ment once to your Chicago office’s “hub” fax, which then sends it on to each of the

four locations.

Press COM-OP TIONS two times and then press ENTER. The LCD will show:

usual. Do n ot pr ess START.

Now, let’s be a little more specific about what happens when you perform relay

broadcast initiation:

What you do now depends upon when you wish to begin initiating the

relay broadcast.

•

You use your fax machine to send a document to at least one call group in a

remote “hub” machine’s autodialer. This can occur either immediately or as a

delayed command (see pages 2.19–2.20).

•

If you want it to begin now, skip to step 8.

If you want to delay it, press COM-OP TIONS, ENTER.

•

The remote “hub” unit receives your document and stores it in memory.

Note: For more information on delayed transmission, see pages 2.19–2.20.

The remote machine retransmits — relays — the document to each fax number

in each call group you specified. This is the relay broadcast you initiated.

which you can program up to 31 days in advance.

When the date and time entry is set as you want, press ENTER to save the

delayed transmission. The LCD shows:

Im p or ta n t: If you program a full 50 delayed transmission commands, no further

memory transmission is possible until the machine performs at least

pages 1.13–1.14.) However, you always can transmit from the feeder by

using on-hook dialing or an optional handset (see page 1.15).

Enter the fax number for the delayed transmission document. You may either

press a one-touch key, enter a speed-dial number or just use the numeric key-

pad to enter the fax number.

Reviewing or cancelling delayed commands

If you’ve stored a delayed command in your fax machine, it will hold it in memory

until it either completes the command successfully or reaches its maximum number

of redial attempts (see pages 1.15–1.16). Your machine can store up to 50 delayed

commands. It identifies each by a two-digit command number ranging from 01 to 50.

Printing a delayed command list

Can’t remember some details about a delayed transmission command you set up?

Or has someone else in your office set up a delayed command, and now you have no

idea why the machine is “reserved” and how long it’ll stay that way?

For situations like these, your machine can print a command list which tells you:

Limiting polling access to your fax machine

Your machine’s closed network setting (see page 2.49) works for polling, as well. If a

calling fax doesn’t “present” the proper passcode, it cannot poll from your fax.

Press ENTER.

Press START.

Note: However, if you’re using the Block J unk Fax feature (see pages 2.49–2.50),

even incoming calls which meet the passcode test must come from appropri-

ate phone numbers.

When it performs the polling command, your machine will dial the number and,

upon making contact with the other machine, begin receiving the document as if the

other machine had placed the call.

The other side of the coin: being polled

Not only can you poll, you can also be polled. To set up a document for regular

polling:

OneLine + distinctive ring detection

It used to be that, to have two phone numbers, you had to have two phone lines,

along with the expensive phone equipment that goes with it. But many phone com-

panies now offer their customers a special service which makes it possible for one

phone line to do the work of two.

If your fax machine is set for Tel Ready reception, press AUTO ANSWER to

change it to the Auto Answer mode, causing the Auto Answer light to glow.

With this service, you physically still have one phone line, but electronically, you

have two phone numbers. Your phone recognizes these different numbers and rings

differently for each one.

Im p or ta n t: Your machine ca n ’t be polled if it’s in Tel Ready mode.

Insert the document.

For example, this makes it easy for you to have both a business number and a home

number on one phone line, so you can answer one with “J ane Doe Consulting,” and

the other with “Hello.” You get the idea. This works because you can tell the differ-

ence between the distinctive patterns of the two rings.

Adjust the resolution and contrast if necessary. (Your fax machine will be

transmitting to the machine doing the polling.)

Press P ROGRAM, D, 1, ENTER.

Your fax will scan the document into memory and return to standby mode.

Your fax machine, too, is smart enough to tell the difference between two different

numbers that is ringing it. All you have to do is give it a little help at the beginning

and begin to enjoy the benefits of its OneLine + distinctive ring detection (DRD) fea-

ture.

Note: If you want to return to the “Tel Ready” mode after the remote machine has

polled your document, press AUTO ANSWER. This will cause the Auto Answer

light on the control panel to turn off.

Bu t d o th is on ly a fter you a r e su r e th e r em ote m a ch in e h a s p olled

you r d ocu m en t.

In order to use OneLine + DRD, your phone company must set up your distinctive

ring service. When it does, it will assign a ring pattern, expressed in time. For

example, the standard telephone ring is 2 seconds “on” (ringing) and 4 seconds “off”

(silent), after which it repeats itself (hence the term, ring pattern).

Beyond the basics

Some telephone companies provide only a very general description — for example,

“short-short-long” — of their DRD ring patterns. Fortunately, though, your fax has

eight possible distinctive ring patterns for use with OneLine + DRD. One of them

should work with your phone company’s DRD service. This chart lists the patterns:

If “A” is the pattern you want, skip to step 7.

If not, proceed to step 6.

Press P ROGRAM repeatedly until your desired pattern appears (in our exam-

ple here, “C”):

Im p or ta n t: With your machine set for using DRD, it won’t respond to any ring pat-

tern other than the one you’ve selected, above. To reset the fax so it

will respond once again to normal rings, repeat steps 2–4, above —

except, in step 3, toggle it to “Off.” Your fax now will respond nor-

mally.

For example: pattern

is 0.3 seconds ringing, 0.2 seconds silent, 1 second ringing,

0.2 seconds silent, 0.3 seconds ringing and 4 seconds silent; then it goes back to the

first 0.3-second ring and starts over.

To use DRD on your fax machine:

Contact your phone company and confirm that the phone company has set up

DRD service for you. If possible, also find out which distinctive ring pattern the

phone company has assigned you.

F-Code communication

To create or modify an F-Code box:

F-Code: an introduction

Keep pen and paper with you as you follow this procedure. As you decide on a

sub-address and enter it (and, if applicable, a password or I.D. code), write it

down. Remember to write down which box goes with which sub-address (and

passcode, if applicable). When you’ve completed this procedure, keep the

printed record in a safe place.

The ITU-T, part of the United Nations agency that maintains international telecom-

munications standards (see the Glossary that begins on page 3.17), has now created

a fax industry standard for using sub-addressing and password-based communica-

tions with not only other Muratec fax machines but also other manufacturers’

machines. One name for this standard is F-Code, and that is what we’ll call it in

these instructions and on your machine’s display.

Press P ROGRAM, E, 1, ENTER. Depending on whether you already have a name

entered for F-Code box 01, the LCD shows:

How sub-addressing works: think of a mailroom

Select F-Code Box

01:No Number Stored

Select F-Code Box

If you are new to the concept of sub-addressing, think about how someone receives

mail addressed to a department within that person’s company. For example, mail

for Accounting gets to the mailroom for the entire company. The Mail Department

then routes the mail to Accounting.

01:NY Branch Office

If this is the F-Code box you want to set, skip to step 4. (However, our sample

displays from this point forward will refer to F-Code box 03, rather than F-

Code box 01.)

That’s the idea behind sub-addressing. Once your fax and another F-Code-compati-

ble fax begin their communication, they exchange special F-Code signals to indicate

just where the fax really should go. It’s as if the sending fax were saying, “Take this

one and deliver it to room 48” and the receiving fax were replying, “48? OK, will do.”

Use the numeric keypad to enter the two-digit number (01-10) of the F-Code

box you want to create or modify. Here, we’ve entered 0, 3 and see either:

Select F-Code Box

03:No Number Stored

Select F-Code Box

For greater security, you can set up an ITU-T-compatible sub-address and password

with F-Code, which lets you use secure transmission and polling in communication

with any other fax machine, so long as it, too, uses the F-Code standard from ITU-T

If you change your mind and want to select a different F-Code box, just use

the numeric keypad to enter the correct two-digit F-Code box number before

going on to step 5.

To use ITU-T sub-addressing and password features, you must create F-Code boxes

in your machine. Your machine can use up to 10 of these boxes. You can store up to

30 documents (not pages) into each F-Code box.

Printing a document you receive

When your fax machine receives a document via ITU-T sub-addressing from another

fax machine, your machine will print a message alerting the person for whom the

document is intended. Then the person has a certain number of days (see page 2.30)

in which to print out the message before your machine automatically erases it.

Print any documents received in the F-Code box, then repeat

this procedure from the beginning to erase the box.

Otherwise, select another F-Code box.

PC-FAX connectivity

Thanks to its built-in PC-FAX feature, your fax machine isn’t only a fax machine — it

also can be an image scanner and printer for your computer.

Making the PC-FAX connection

To connect your fax machine and your computer, you need an extra RS-232C inter-

face cable.

Note: If there is no fax software (see “Requirements for your computer”, below)

installed on your computer, this interface serves no function. So, you must

have installed such software on your computer before you connect the RS-

232C interface cable between your computer and your fax machine.

RS-232C interface cable

The RS-232C interface port on your fax has a DB-25 (standard 25-pin serial) female

receptacle which accepts a male DB-25 cable plug. Your computer’s serial port may

have either a DB-25 or DB-9 (9-pin) receptacle. Please consult the interface’s PIN

assignment on the following table:

Requirements for your computer

To use your fax’s PC-FAX feature with your computer, you must have properly

installed fax software on the computer.

Note: Please see your computer’s operating instructions about the serial interface

port of your computer.

Keeping things secure

Your machine has a number of features to enhance the security of your fax commu-

nications. These security features can help you keep your private fax documents

private, avoid unwanted outside communication and even protect against unautho-

rized use of your machine.

Locking up tight

Im p or ta n t: For this feature to work, you must have set the passcode, as described

—

operation protection

in the left column.

Because this is a powerful machine you have here — and, besides, you’re paying for

its phone calls — you may not want just anybody to use it. That’s why we’ve pro-

vided operation protection. When this feature is activated, only users who enter the

correct passcode (see “The key to it all: the password,” left column) can send faxes

from the machine or change the machine’s settings.

The key to it all

—

the passcode

Your machine has a protection passcode system which is central to the machine’s

security capabilities. Normally, this four-digit passcode is set to 0000 (four zeroes).

This turns off passcode operation. But, if you set the passcode to anything besides

0000, this passcode provides access to a number of other security options, which

we’ll describe in the following pages.

Activating operation protection

Press P ROGRAM, , 1, 6, ENTER. The LCD shows:

To set your machine’s passcode:

Set Opr. Protect

Decide upon, and then write down the four-digit passcode (0001–9999) you

want to use and put it in a safe place.

Use the numeric keypad to enter the passcode. Here, we’ve entered 6296:

If you want security reception to begin now (and at this same time every day),

skip to step 9.

Otherwise, proceed to step 8.

Your fax machine has a security reception capability. This means that you can tell

the machine to keep all received faxes in memory (but not print them) after a cer-

tain time. Then, later, you instruct it to go ahead and print out the saved faxes.

This is great if, for example, you are concerned about workers reading documents

intended for your eyes only!

Use the numeric keypad to enter the time (24-hour format) when security

reception should begin every day. “Type over” the numerals displayed. Here,

we’ve entered 17:35 (5:35 PM):

Masking the PIN

To prevent unauthorized long-distance calls, some office telephone systems require

you to enter not only the phone number but also a personal identification number

(PIN) whenever you dial an outside number beginning with 1.

PIN Mode:

Program/Enter

If the setting you see is acceptable, skip to step 6.

Otherwise, proceed to step 5.

If that’s true for you, you’ll probably want to keep that PIN confidential, so unautho-

rized persons can’t use it. Fortunately, your fax’s PIN mask feature makes such

confidentiality possible. With the PIN mask activated, you can dial a fax number

plus a PIN, but the PIN will not appear in a journal, error message printout, delayed

command list or even TCR, where an unauthorized user might see it. The PIN may be

up to eight characters in length (it can include the * or # symbols, if necessary), and

can be entered from the numeric keypad.

To change the setting, press P ROGRAM repeatedly until your desired setting

appears. In this example, we’ve chosen “Mode1.”

PIN Mode:

Mode1

Program/Enter

Press ENTER.

Im p or ta n t: For this feature to work, the passcode (see page 2.45) must be some-

thing besides 0000, and you must know the passcode.

There are three possible settings for the PIN MASK feature:

Autodialing while using the PIN mask

printout which shows what you dial.

Note: The following instructions presume you understand how to set and use your

machine’s autodialer. If you need to review, see pages 2.8–2.13.

•

Mode 1 — Each remote fax unit has a departmental PIN access code.

Note: If the PIN mask feature is off, you use the autodialer normally.

Mode 2 — Each fax user has a departmental PIN access code.

If you’ve specified “Mode 1” — the PIN goes in

Note: If you select Mode 1 and you will use a one-touch or speed-dial number, you

must store the remote unit’s PIN access code within that number. However,

if you select Mode 2, this isn’t necessary. (See “Autodialing while using the

PIN mask,” this page, right column for further details.)

In Mode 1, before autodialing a number for the first time, you must add the PIN to

its stored one-touch key or speed-dial number. Here’s how:

Mode 1 — Your fax machine checks whether the last four digits of any phone

number in your autodialer matches the last four digits of the remote fax’s sub-

scriber ID (remember, that’s the phone number part of the TTI). If it doesn’t find a

match, your machine disconnects the call.

Let’s quickly summarize the error codes you may see on an error report:

T.1.1 The remote fax machine didn’t respond to your machine. Call someone at the

remote machine’s location.

Dialing errors

T.1.4 Someone pressed STOP at the remote unit in the middle of the handshake

(the very first part of the fax communication, when the two units “agree” on

the settings they’ll share).

D.0.3, The remote unit didn’t respond, the call couldn’t be completed or STOP

D.0.8 was pressed during dialing. Re-try the call. If your machine repeats the mess-

age, call the remote fax unit’s operator and verify that unit is operating prop-

tion became impossible due to bad phone line conditions. Try the call again.

D.0.2 The remote unit is busy. Try the call again.

T.2.2 The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and

receives only ITU-T Group 3 (see “Glossary,” page 3.17) fax communication,

the industry standard since the early 1980s.

D.0.6, Either the remote unit didn’t respond, the call somehow didn’t go through or

D.0.7 STOP was pressed during dialing. Try the call again.

T.2.3 Bad phone line conditions made fax communication impossible. Conditions

Reception errors

can change rapidly, so try the call again later.

T.3.1 The page counter in your fax machine detected a document feeder error dur-

ing transmission. Carefully re-insert the document into the feeder and re-try

the call.

R.1.1 The calling fax machine didn’t respond to your fax machine. This can hap-

pen if someone dials a wrong number or if the remote machine restricts

access through use of a passcode.

T.4.1 The telephone line disconnected during the transmission of a page because

of excessive modem errors or because the remote unit ran out of paper. Try

the call again.

R.1.2 The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and

receives only ITU-T Group 3 (see Glossary, pages 3.17–3.20) fax communica-

Caring for your fax machine

With proper installation and a little maintenance, your fax machine should give you

dependable service for years to come.

Keep the air vents clean

As you’ll recall from page 1.6, you shouldn’t cover your machine or it may overheat.

However, dust can build up and become a sort of “cover.” You already know not to

locate your machine in a dusty area, but, any object out in the open obviously will

gather dust as time passes.

Although it requires little day-to-day care, you can take these simple precautions to

keep it in top form:

•

Alw a ys make sure your fax machine is installed according to our specifications,

including using an electrical surge suppressor. (If necessary, review “Pick an

installation spot before going ahead,” page 1.6.)

So, be sure to clea n you r m a ch in e’s a ir ven ts p er iod ica lly. When you do, use a

vacuum cleaner or brush. (Do n ot wipe the air vents with a damp cloth!)

•

Alw a ys use good, copier-quality paper.

The air vents are located on the left side of the machine (as viewed from in front;

the drawing below is a view from the machine’s left rear):

Alw a ys clean your fax machine as needed (see “Cleaning tips,” below).

Never install your fax machine where it can overheat, gather dust or get

splashed by any liquids (even water).

Cleaning tips

Here are some things to keep in mind about cleaning your fax machine:

•

Do clean it! Dust and dirt, especially around the fax machine’s air vents (see

right column) can shorten your machine’s life.

•

Alw a ys unplug the fax machine before you clean it.

Never spr a y a n y clea n er DIRECTLY on to you r fa x m a ch in e. The drifting

spray could damage components inside.

•

Never tr y to clea n SEALED a r ea s in sid e you r fa x m a ch in e. They’re sealed for

a purpose: to protect your safety and the machine!

This tip applies only to cleaning external surfaces, such as the cover and handset

— use a mild cleaning solution sprayed onto a lint-free towel or cloth.

Alw a ys use a lint-free cloth (or swabs) moistened with alcohol to gently wipe

components inside your machine. (See the next step also.)

In areas you can’t reach with swabs, a lw a ys use dry, dust-free compressed air to

gently blow away dust and other material.

If you have unsatisfactory printout quality

Corrective cleaning

Your machine automatically cleans its charger and transport roller, two items

which are very important to printout quality. So, if you notice poor printout quality

(whether on received faxes or on copies), it may mean that your machine requires

service. Review “Print quality problems” (pages 3.4–3.5), and see whether any of the

proposed solutions helps your machine. If these don’t help, please call your autho-

rized Muratec dealer.

Here are some simple cleaning procedures for keeping your fax machine operating

smoothly. Use each as the need arises.

Curing frequent jams in the document feeder

If you’re having trouble with getting your original documents to feed properly, try

this procedure:

Turn off your fax machine.

Get two soft, lint-free cloths and moisten them as follows:

•

One with a cleaner suitable for use on platen/rubber rollers

The other with isopropyl alcohol

Open the scanner cover by holding the

scanner cover release.

Im p or ta n t: You must hold the cover

open. It won’t stay open

by itself.

Use the cloth with the

roller cleaner to clean

the face of the rollers.

Rotate the rollers

by hand to allow

cleaning of the

entire roller surface.

Use the cloth with the

isopropyl alcohol to clean

the contact glass.

Gently close the scanner cover, making sure both sides are snapped

down securely.

To use the Muratec Information System:

A: That was the other fax machine trying to say “Hello” to your machine! You’ll

using these tones that fax machines are able to send faxes over ordinary phone

lines. So, next time you hear such tones, press START (and, if you’re using an

optional handset, hang up) to send a fax.

On your fax machine, obtain a dial tone by pressing MONITOR/CALL. (If

you’re in a noisy area and have an optional handset attached to your

machine, you may want to simply lift the handset instead.)

Call 1-800-215-1698.

Follow the voice instructions you’ll receive from the system.

Q: I just sent a fax. However, the number that appeared in my machine’s display

during the transmission wasn’t the number I dialed. Why?

A: That number you saw is programmed into the remote fax machine by the user.

Some users prefer different numbers to appear than the ones they’re really

using. And frankly, some people take over other’s already-programmed fax

machines and don’t know how to change the originally set number!

General questions

Q: Where do I add ink or toner to make my fax machine’s printouts darker?

A: You can’t adjust the darkness of an incoming fax printout, but you can adjust

the darkness of a copy (or copies) or of a transmission. Insert a document and

press CONTRAST repeatedly to adjust the contrast setting. “Dark” prints at the

darkest setting. The machine will reset automatically to normal contrast after

the copying or sending.

Q: Can I transmit and receive at the same time?

A: No. Use the call request feature (see pages 2.25–2.26) to ask the person at the

remote fax machine if he or she wants to transmit or receive after your fax

communication is complete.

Note: You can’t adjust the darkness of an incoming fax printout.

Q: Do I have to dial a 1 for a long-distance call?

Q: When I unplug my machine or if the power goes off, will I lose the information

I’ve stored — such as my TTI, autodialer entries, the time and date, etc. — and

have to re-enter them?

A: Yes. Dialing a fax number is just like dialing any other phone number, so be

sure to include any special long-distance codes or dialing pauses when dialing.

Also, remember to include them when you set your autodialer numbers.

A: No. There’s a special battery built into your fax machine which protects user

settings for several days if power fails or if you decide to move your machine.

However, we do advise you to restore power to the machine as soon as possible.

Q: How do I send a fax to an overseas telephone number?

Q: I inserted a document in the feeder and dialed a fax number, but my machine

didn’t transmit the document; instead, “** Auto Redial **” now appears on

my LCD. What does this mean?

A: Dialing requirements for international calls may vary depending on your local

telephone company’s requirements. For most international calls, call 011, then

dial the appropriate country code, city code and phone number. (You may find

country and city codes in the front section of your telephone directory.)

A: The remote fax machine was busy, so your machine will try the call again,

automatically. As long as it hasn’t stored more than 50 delayed commands

(counting automatic redials), your machine should still accept commands from

you. If it has exceeded this quantity and will accept no more commands, try can-

celling one of the delayed commands (see pages 2.19–2.20). If the machine still

won’t cooperate, keep cancelling commands until it does.

Q: Can I transmit if my fax machine runs out of paper?

A: Yes, but confirmation reports (see page 2.23) aren’t available when you trans-

mit without recording paper in your fax machine.

Q: The specifications (page AI.1) list an average per-page transmission time, but

Q: Can I transmit a document that’s extra long?

when I transmit a page it can take much longer. Why?

A: Yes, if the receiving fax machine is equipped to handle long documents. Many

machines have a special setting which allows them to receive documents that

exceed the normal length.

A: We base this specification on transmission of an industry-standard test docu-

ment called ITU-T Test Document 1 (sometimes also called the “Slerexe letter”).

Fax manufacturers use this method to test transmission speeds. However:

Q: Can I transmit a page from a newspaper?

•

The pages you send may be darker, or otherwise contain more information,

than ITU-T Test Document 1.

A: No. A newspaper page can jam in your document feeder. First, use a copy

machine to make an appropriately sized copy of the newspaper page, then

transmit the copy.

•

The transmission time measured for test documents doesn’t include hand-

shake time — the time during which two fax machines “introduce”

themselves to each other and “agree on” the parameters of the call.

Q: Can I transmit a page with correction fluid on it?

•

The specification time is based on the use of normal resolution mode. You

may be using fine, superfine or grayscale transmission, each of which takes

longer than normal mode.

A: Yes, but only if the fluid is completely dry before you begin transmission.

Q: How can I be sure my fax was received?

A: Set your machine to print a confirmation report after each transmission (see

Q: What’s a default?

page 2.23).

A: A default is a setting that your machine will always refer to if nothing else is

programmed. For example, you can set the default for this machine to send a

fax by using its memory. If you set this action as the default, that’s how your

machine will always send a fax, until you tell it to do differently.

Q: I don’t want to install a dedicated phone line for my fax machine, so I’ve con-

nected the machine to a PBX phone system. When I get a fax call, all the phones

ring! How do I prevent this?

A: Call your PBX manufacturer or telephone company for assistance. They may be

able to convert one of the PBX lines for use only by your fax machine.

Reports

Q: Sometimes when I dial a fax call by using either the (optional) handset or

MONITOR/CALL, I don’t hear the fax receiving tones from the other machine.

Am I doing something wrong?

Q: I called the number 011-555-555-1212, but not all of the digits appear on my

transmit confirmation report (TCR). Why didn’t the whole number appear? How

can I be sure my document went to the right location?

A: When this happens, try pressing START (and then hanging up the optional

handset if you’re using it), as usual. It’s possible you’re calling an older, non-

standard fax machine that doesn’t emit answering tones. Even a few Group 3

faxes (see “Glossary,” page 3.17) on the market sound a sending tone but don’t

sound a receiving tone. After you transmit, call the person at the other fax

machine’s location to see if he/she got your document.

A: The numbers you enter using the fax keypad are temporarily stored in a mem-

ory “buffer”, and it’s only the last part of the phone number that the buffer

“remembers.” An easy way to avoid getting incomplete telephone numbers on

your printouts is to store your most frequently used numbers as one-touch keys

or speed-dial numbers. These autodialer numbers will appear in their entirety

on your TCR.

Receiving faxes

Q: My fax never answers. What’s wrong?

Working with your answering machine

Q: People have complained that they call my fax machine and hear my answering

machine’s message, but are cut off before they can send a fax. What happened?

A: Check to make sure your fax machine is properly connected to a working AC

power outlet and phone jack (see pages 1.6–1.8). If you’re using a second phone

with your machine, make sure it’s connected properly (page 1.9).

A: Any remote fax machine attempting to send a fax must “hear” responding fax

tones within somewhat under 40 seconds after the person at that machine

presses the start key. That 40 seconds includes getting the dial tone, dialing

the number, “listening” to the pause before the ringing starts and the remote

fax machine answering the ring. Only after that time does your message play

Q: Sometimes when I answer my machine with the optional handset, I hear a

beeping sound that repeats every few seconds. Is this a fax?

A: Yes. When you hear such fax tones, someone is trying to send you a fax. Next

That’s why we urge you to make a short outgoing message. The shorter the

overall waiting period, the more likely it is that the remote fax machine will

proceed with the transmission. Please make an outgoing message that is no

longer than 10 seconds (see page 1.20 for a suggestion).

time, press START and hang up the handset. Your fax will receive the message.

Q: Does my fax machine have to be plugged in to the AC power jack just to receive

a message?

A: Yes. Your phone will ring if the phone line is connected, but you can’t receive a

fax unless your fax machine is plugged into both the phone jack and the AC

power jack. Make sure your fax machine is always plugged in so you never

miss an important fax message.

How your fax machine works

The concept of how a fax machine works is simple. Here’s a simple analogy. Let’s

say you want to mail a gift to a friend:

Q: Can I receive a fax if I’m using the phone on my machine?

•

You take the item, wrap it and send it.

A: You can receive a fax from the person to whom you’re talking. When that per-

son has a document ready in his/her machine’s feeder, press START. However,

like any regular one-line phone, your fax machine can handle only one call at a

time. The OneLine + feature (see pages 2.24-2.25) lets you receive calls on up to

two phone numbers if your telephone company has installed the appropriate

DRD service, but you can use only one number at a time.

Days later, your friend receives the package, unwraps it and uses it.

Now, let’s apply that to fax communication.

You put a page into your fax machine’s feeder and call a fax number. Your machine

makes a satisfactory connection with the other machine, and then …

•

An image scanner in your fax machine examines the information on the page.

That’s how your machine takes the document.

Polling

•

Your fax machine translates the scanned information into a numeric code and

compresses the code for the fastest possible transmission speed.

That’s how your machine wraps the document.

Q: What’s the purpose of polling?

A: Polling lets you automatically “pull” a document which is set in another fax

machine. You can poll whenever you need to retrieve information and don’t

want the source to pay for the phone call. With polling, you pay for the call and

get the information you need.

•

Finally, your fax machine sends the compressed code.

That’s how your machine sends the document.

On the other end of the line …

•

The remote fax machine receives the code.

The remote fax machine uncompresses and deciphers the code, turning it into a

representation of the scan your machine made.

That’s how your machine unwraps the document.

3.15

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

J ust in case …

The remote fax machine prints the representation.

•

Now, the recipient can use the document.

… and that’s how fax works!

The only difference between a regular telephone call and a fax call is the content of

the transmission:

•

On a regular call, your telephone sends your voice.

On a fax call, your fax machine sends a coded image.

If your fax machine is in Tel/Fax Ready mode and you have other telephone exten-

sions on the same line, all the other phones will ring. In fact, there’s no way to tell if

an incoming call is from a fax machine or from a person until you answer, or your

fax machine answers.

You’ll know it’s a fax call if, upon answering, you hear a beeping sound that repeats

every few seconds. This sound is each fax machine’s way of identifying itself to the

machine it calls.

When you press START, your fax machine responds to these signals using other spe-

cial tones (to us humans, they sound a bit like screeches) which are its way of

responding to the other machine’s “greeting”. This acknowledgement — just like

greetings you might exchange with a friend — is called handshaking.

The way fax machines work is regulated closely by international standards applied

by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU), an agency of the United

Nations. These standards ensure the compatibility of your fax machine with mil-

lions of other fax machines worldwide. However, they also limit the way you can use

your machine with other devices, such as telephones and answering machines.

Nonetheless, this is a small price to pay for the ability to send documents just about

anywhere on earth!

Glossary

This glossary contains terms and words you may encounter when discussing or

reading about fax machines and fax communications. Please use these definitions

for reference only.

Ca ll-w a itin g ser vice — An optional telephone company service that alerts you to

another incoming call when the phone is already in use. Call-waiting signals often

cause interruption of fax transmission or reception.

Ca ller ID — Optional service provided by your local telephone company that allows

you to see a display of the number (phone or fax) that is calling.

A4, B4, A3 — Standard stationery sizes defined by the International Standards

Organization, an agency of the United Nations. See also Paper sizes.

CCITT — See ITU-T.

An sw er in g m a ch in e — See TAD.

CCD, CIS — Charged coupled device, contact image sensor. Two types of scanning

mechanisms used in some Muratec fax machines. The CCD “reads” fluorescent light

bouncing off a document. The CIS uses a flat bar of light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

Au tod ia lin g — Enables user to store preprogrammed telephone numbers in the

unit’s memory. Storage capability varies from unit to unit.

Com p a tibility — The term “compatible” describes the ability of separate things to

function together. Your Muratec fax machine features ITU-T Group 3 compatibility,

the modern standard for worldwide communication.

Au tom a tic fa llba ck — The ability of a fax machine to slow down (“fall back”),

when communicating with another fax which is communicating at a slower rate.

Au tom a tic r ed u ction — Many Muratec fax machines will automatically reduce

the size of documents being transmitted to accommodate the effective printing

width of the receiving unit. For example, this allows a fax machine with a 10″ scan-

ning width to send an image 10″ wide to a unit with an 8.5″ print width. The

receiving fax machine will receive a reduced-size printout of the complete image.

Con fid en tia l tr a n sm ission — See SecureMail.

Con fir m a tion r ep or t — See TCR.

Cop y m od e — Allows your fax machine to be used as a convenience copier.

Cover p a ge (a u tom a tic) — A small, user-created message which can be the first

page of every transmission.

Bit — The smallest unit of information in a computer. Some Muratec fax machines,

which are actually computers “dedicated” to telecommunications, allow users to

change bits of information to provide or cancel features through software settings.

The word “bit” is a contraction of the two words “binary digit.”

Da ta com p r ession — Used in digital fax machines to speed transmission. See also

Digital fax, MH and MSE, SMSE.

Defa u lt — The setting your machine will always refer to if no other action has been

programmed. For example, you can set the default for this machine to send a fax by

using its memory. If you set this action as the default, that’s how your machine will

always send a fax, until you tell it to do differently.

Bits p er secon d — See bps.

Bla ck d en sity — Also called black coverage. The amount of non-white area on a

page. For example, most regular office correspondence has a black density well

under 10% due to the presence of margins, spaces between words, spaces between

lines and paragraphs and even spaces within letters. However, drawings and pho-

tographs have a much higher black density, sometimes approaching 100%. The

higher a page’s black density, the more slowly a fax machine sends it.

Dela yed com m a n d — Transmission or polling operation set by the user to occur

later, automatically, at a predetermined time. Great for reducing costs by making

fax calls during times when telephone costs are lowest, such as late at night or on

weekends.

bp s — Bits per second. Used to express the speed of transmission of data. Because

fax transmission treats a document as a graphic image rather than as a series of

alphabetic and numeric characters, bps does not correspond to the number of char-

acters transmitted per second.

Digita l — Using the binary system (which uses a combination of 0s or 1s) to

describe everything, so that 0 means off and 1 means on; digital fax machines con-

vert the graphic image of your document into a series of zeros and ones by using the

binary system of transmission to encode black and white occurrences. This

increases transmission speed by passing over white spaces. See also White-line skip.

Byte — A group of digital elements, usually sent as eight bits to the byte.

Ca ll r eser ve — Also called call request. An ITU-T standard fax feature which allows

a user to request voice communication prior to, during or after transmission.

J ust in case …

Digita l fa x — Unlike analog systems that scan every portion of a document, digital

ITU-T — International Telecommunications Union – Telecommunications Sector.

(Formerly known as CCITT, for Consultative Committee for International Telegraph

and Telephone.) A telecommunications forum for member countries of the United

Nations, whose Study Group XIV established the primary groups for fax equipment,

covering communication protocol and transmission. Muratec Group 3 fax machines

offer the fastest transmissions allowed by the ITU-T when communicating with other

Group 3 units.

fax machines survey a document’s overall picture content. Digital fax machines

scan a line and convert the information into a binary code of zeros and ones. The fax

machine takes this information and compresses it, providing high transmission

speeds. Many Muratec units offer proprietary methods for faster transmissions

between Muratec-manufactured units (see also MSE, SMSE).

DIP sw itch es — Dual in-line package switch; a two-position on/off switch. Many

Muratec fax machines include DIP switches to control optional settings or features.

ITU-T Test Docu m en t 1 — Also called the Slerexe (“slehr-rehks”) letter; An ITU-T

standard document with a known black density which fax makers often use to test

transmission speeds of their fax machines. Published transmission speeds are also

based on this document.

Effective p r in tin g w id th — The widest image that can be printed on a fax.

Effective sca n w id th — The maximum width the scanner in a fax can scan

during transmission.

ITU-T V.29 a n d V.27 ter . — A standard set of communication procedures allowing

fax machines to talk to all other units adhering to those standards.

F -Cod e — The ITU-T has created a fax industry standard for using sub-

addressing/password-based communications with not only Muratec fax machines but

also other manufacturers’ fax machines.

La ser p r in tin g — A plain-paper printing system. Toner is attached to a charged

drum and an image is transferred onto plain paper through electrical currents, then

fused with heat and pressure to produce a dry, permanent printout.

F a csim ile (or fa x) — A form of communication involving the scanning and decoding

of a document into electrical signals and transmitting of the document, over tele-

phone lines to another device. This device then reconstructs the signals to produce an

exact duplicate of the document. Also, a machine that performs such communica-

tion.

LCD — Liquid crystal display. Used on some Muratec units for status displays.

Lea sed lin e — See Private line.

Loa d n u m ber — A number assigned to telecommunications equipment used in

Canada; designed to help prevent overloading on a telephone circuit. See also

Ringer equivalence number.

F a llba ck — Group 3 fax machines operate at the highest transmission speed possi-

ble on a given telephone line. Muratec systems offer automatic fallback; if line

quality drops during transmission, the fax machine will reduce speed to the fastest

possible level.

Loca tion ID — See Station ID.

lp i — Lines per inch. The way fax image resolution is measured. (For example, see

Normal resolution.)

F in e r esolu tion — 203H × 196V lpi. Also shown as

(“Group 3 fine”) on some fax

units.

MH — Modified Huffman, the standard ITU-T Group 3 data compression method. A

one-dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in a horizontal direction only.

A feature of all Muratec fax machines, MH assures transmissions faster than one

page per minute when communicating with other Group 3 units, regardless of man-

ufacturer. See also MR, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

Gr a ysca le — Not a level of resolution, but a method of scanning and transmitting

halftone images. Fax machines with grayscale abilities interpret photographs in

levels of gray between white and black. The transmitting fax machine must have

grayscale ability to send a photographic image accurately, but the receiving

machine does not need it to print the image.

Mod em — Modulator-demodulator. A device that converts digital data, like infor-

mation from a fax machine, into an analog signal for transmission over ordinary

telephone lines. A modem is included in a fax machine and allows it to be connected

directly to a PSTN telephone line.

Gr ou p 3 — Refers to fax machines that use digital encoding. These units transmit

one page in less than one minute and produce resolution of 203 × 98, 203 × 196, or

203 × 392 lpi.

Ha lfton e — See Grayscale.

MR — Modified Read, an ITU-T Group 3 standard data compression method. A two-

dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal and vertical

directions and allows for faster transmission when communicating with other

Group 3 units, regardless of manufacturer. See also MH, MMR, MSE, SMSE.

Ha n d sh a k in g — An exchange of data between telecommunications and/or

computer equipment that “introduces” two systems to each other. For example,

faxes use a handshaking protocol to identify the ITU-T group of each unit and to

begin fax communication.

MMR — Modified Modified Read, an ITU-T Group 3 standard data compression

method. A two-dimensional coding scheme that compresses data in both horizontal

and vertical directions and allows for faster transmission when communcating with

other Group 3 units, regardless of manufacturer. See also MH, MR, MSE, SMSE.

Hu b — See Relay broadcasting.

Hz (or Her tz) — A measure of frequency equal to one cycle per second. Used in the

specifications for a fax machine, it identifies the AC power the unit requires.

P STN — Public switched telephone network; the most common type of telephone

lines and service in use, in contrast to private or leased lines. A Muratec fax pro-

vides fast, reliable data transmission over a PSTN line, and does not need a special or

dedicated telephone line. See also Private line.

Mon itor — A speaker in most Muratec fax machines which allows the user to hear

the dialing process. This is not a speakerphone, because it has no microphone for

speaking to the person being called. For regular two-way voice communication,

users must use the optional handset. See also On-hook dialing.

MSE, SMSE — Muratec’s proprietary data compression methods, allowing a Muratec-

manufactured fax machine to transmit more quickly when communicating with

another Muratec-manufactured unit. MSE and SMSE are features on many Muratec

fax machines. See also MH, MR, MMR.

Receiver ID — See Station ID.

Red ia lin g — The dialing again, either manually or automatically controlled, of the

most recently dialed fax or phone number. Automatic redialing follows an unsuc-

cessful dialing attempt and can be done manually or automatically.

Nor m a l r esolu tion — Shown as “norm”; 203H × 98V lpi. The default resolution

Rela y br oa d ca stin g — Lets some Muratec fax machines store a document in

internal memory, transmit the document to the memory of a remote “hub” fax and

then instruct that unit to relay (re-transmit) the document to each fax in a call

group in the “hub” unit. This feature speeds extremely high-volume fax communica-

tion and allows a single command to initiate document transmission to hundreds of

preprogrammed fax locations. It also saves phone charges for the originating

machine. Your machine can initiate a relay broadcast.

mode for all Muratec fax machines.

On e-tou ch d ia lin g — Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for

dialing with the touch of one key. See also Autodialing and Speed-dialing.

On -h ook d ia lin g — Dialing numbers by using the keypad on the fax unit without

lifting a handset. On most Muratec fax models, the user can do this either silently

or by using the monitor. See also Monitor.

Rem ote fa x m a ch in e — The machine on the other “end” of a fax communication.

Or igin a l d ocu m en t size — The largest (or smallest) document that can be fed

safely through a fax machine.

REN — See Ringer equivalence number.

P a p er sizes — All are width × length:

Resolu tion — The resolution of documents transmitted or copied by fax machines

is measured by the number of horizontal (H) and vertical (V) lines per inch (lpi) the

unit can print. A Muratec unit may offer one or more of these resolution levels:

Letter-sized = 8.5″ ×11.0″

Legal-sized = 8.5″ ×14.0″

A5 = 5.8″ × 8.3″

B5 = 7.2″ ×10.1″

A4 = 8.3″ ×11.7″

B4 = 10.1″ ×14.3″

A3 = 11.7″ ×16.5″

B3 = 14.3″ ×20.3″

Normal

Fine

Superfine

203H × 98V lpi

203H × 196V lpi

P a sscod e — A four-digit code-number. On your fax machine, the protection pass-

code lets the user limit access to fax operations, as well as certain settings and even

documents readied for polling (in the case of polling, only calling machines whose

users enter the proper passcode will be able to poll the document.)

Some Muratec units also offer grayscale transmission (see also Grayscale) for accu-

rate reproduction of photographs and other shaded originals.

Rin ger equ iva len ce n u m ber — Also called REN. A number assigned to telecom-

munications equipment used in the United States; designed to prevent overloading

on a telephone circuit. See also Load number.

P BX (or P ABX) — Private branch exchange; privately-owned telephone equipment

serving a particular building, business or area. Many PBX systems use digital trans-

mission lines which, unlike more common PSTN lines, are not compatible with fax

machine use. The user should not connect a fax unit to a PBX without first checking

with the system manufacturer or service representative.

Sca n n in g w id th — See Effective scanning width.

Secu r eMa il — Allows a Muratec fax user to send a document to or or receive one

into (usually something confidential) an “electronic mail box.” The transmission is

protected at the receiving Muratec fax by an access code; the receiving fax prints

the document only when an authorized user enters the code.

P ollin g — Automatic transmission to a calling remote fax, or reception of a docu-

ment from a remote fax set for this operation. Polling is convenient whenever a

central unit must receive information from one or several remote faxes. The caller

bears all telephone charges and prevents several remote units from calling at the

same time. See also Secure polling.

Secu r e p ollin g — Polling in which preset passcodes are checked between two

machines before polling is allowed to take place.

P r iva te lin e — (Or leased line.) A service offered by many telephone systems; pro-

vides an exclusive phone circuit between two geographic points. A Muratec fax does

not require a private line. See also PSTN.

Sp eed -d ia lin g — Allows the fax user to store frequently used fax numbers for dial-

ing with the touch of three keys — an identifier key (either * or #) and then a

three-digit code — for each number. See also Autodialing and One-touch dialing.

P r op r ieta r y — Non-standard. In fax, refers to a fax feature which works only in

communications between fax machines that are the same brand.

Sta tion ID — (Also called Location ID or Receiver ID.) An autodialer feature which

lets the fax user enter a descriptive name to correspond with the number in an

autodialer entry. For example, rather than entering only 1-972-555-3465, the user

can enter that number and a name, such as Dallas Branch Office. (Many Muratec

models with this feature allow entry of both upper-case and lower-case letters, for

greater ease of reading.)

Su bscr iber ID — A fax machine’s telephone number, as identified by a user set-

ting. See TTI.

Su p er fin e r esolu tion — 203H × 392V lpi. Your Muratec fax machine’s superfine

transmission mode is Group-3-compatible, not the more limited proprietary version.

TAD — Telephone answering device, or answering machine. Records incoming voice

messages for playback. You can connect a TAD to a Muratec fax machine and use the

two on one phone line.

TCR — Transmit confirmation report; this provides proof that your Muratec fax did

send the document you set for transmission. Printed after transmission, the TCR

also identifies the telephone number to which the fax sent the document, plus the

actual time of transmission and how many pages the unit transmitted.

Th er m a l (p a p er ) p r in tin g — A thermal head heats chemically treated, thermally

sensitive paper in patterns conforming to the image the machine has scanned, cre-

ating a printed image. Thermal paper’s tendency to discolor and fade, in addition to

its curliness and the usual difficulty in writing on it, have made this method consid-

erably less popular than plain-paper fax printing — particularly as plain-paper fax

machines have dropped sharply in price.

TTI — Transmit terminal identifier. A user-programmable line of information sent

automatically with every page a fax machine sends; it appears at the top of each

page printed by the receiving unit.

Tr a n sm ission sp eed — How fast a fax machine is sending a fax document. This

speed depends on the modem speed of each unit, the resolution setting, the content

of the document, the encoding technique and the condition of the phone line (clean,

noisy, etc.) Any change in any one of these five conditions will affect the speed,

sometimes significantly.

Wh ite-lin e sk ip — A technique used to speed up fax transmission by bypassing

redundant areas, such as white space.

Regulatory information

If problems arise

United States of America

If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remote it from your telephone

line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network. If the telephone company notes a problem, they may temporarily

stop service. When practical, they will notify you before this disconnection. If advance notice is not feasible, you will be

notified as soon as possible. When you are notified, you will be given the opportunity to correct the problem and will be

informed of your right to file a complaint with the FCC.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) information

Ringer Equivalence Number (RENs): AC REN, 3.2B DC REN, 0.3.

;

This facsimile machine has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class

digital device, pursuant to

Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a

residential installation.

In the event repairs are ever needed on your fax machine, they should be done by Muratec America, Inc., or an

authorized representative of Muratec America, Inc. For information, contact the Muratec Customer Support Center at

972-364-3350 (from the U. S. only).

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance

with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Canada

If this equipment causes interference in radio or television reception (which can be determined by turning the equip-

ment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Industry Canada (IC) regulations

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

IC Load Number (LN): 18.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class

interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital Apparatus,” ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.

other information, the FCC registration number and REN for this equipment. If so requested, you must provide this infor-

mation to the telephone company.

des Communications.

Notice: The Canadian Department of Communications label identifies certified equipment. This certification means

the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements.

The Department does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

An FCC-compliant telephone cord and modular plug are provided with this equipment. This equipment is designed to be

connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible modular jack which is Part-68-compliant.

Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local

telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection.

Sometimes, the company’s inside wiring associated with a single-line individual service may be extended with a certi-

fied connector assembly (telephone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with these

coniditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.

Telephone company procedures

The goal of the telephone company is to provide you with the best service it can. In order to do this, it may occasionally

have to make changes in its equipment, operations or procedures. If these changes might affect your service or the oper-

ation of your equipment, the telephone company will give you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any changes

necessary to maintain uninterrupted service.

Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the

supplier. Any equipment malfunction, or repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, may give the

telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.

If you have any questions about your telephone line, such as how many pieces of equipment you can connect to it, the

telephone company will provide this information upon request.

In certain circumstances, it may be necessary for the telephone company to request information from you about the

equipment which you have connected to your telephone line. Upon request of the telephone company, provide the FCC

registration number and the Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of the equipment which is connected to your line. Both

of these numbers are listed on the equipment label attached to your fax machine.

Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines

and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected. This precaution may be particularly important in

rural areas.

Ca u tion : Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric

The sum of all RENS on your telephone line should be fewer than five (5) in order to assure proper service from the tele-

phone company. Sometimes, a sum of five (5) may not be usable on a given telephone line.

inspection authority or electrician.

The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a

telephone loop which is used by the device to prevent overloading. The termination on a loop may consist of any combina-

tion of devices subject only to the requirement that the total of the LNs of all the devices doesn’t exceed 100.

The IC LN for the F-98 is 18.

Note:

This equipment is hearing-aid-compatible (HAC).

Notice: The Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlawful for any person to use a computer or other

electronic device to send any message via a telephone fax machine unless such message clearly contains,

either in a margin at the top or bottom of each transmitted page or on the first page of the transmission, the

date and time it was sent and an identification of the business or other identity, or other individual sending

the message and the telephone number of the sending machine or such business, entity or individual. For

instructions on programming this information (the “TTI”) into your fax machine, see pages 1.10–1.11.

Type of service

Your fax is designed for use on standard-device telephone lines. The fax connects to the telephone line with a standard

line called the USOC RJ -11. Connection to telephone-company-provided coin service (central-office-implemented systems).

Connection to party line service is subject to State tariffs.
