FCC STATEMENT
Your fax machine complies with Part
68 of FCC Rules. You must, upon re-
quest, provide the FCC registration
number and the REN to your phone
company. Both numbers are shown on
the bottom of your fax machine.
THE FCC WANTS YOU
TO KNOW
In the unlikely event that your fax ma-
chine causes problems on the phone
line, the phone company can discon-
nect your service. The phone company
attempts to notify you in advance. If
advance notice is not practical, the
phone company notifies you of your
right to file a complaint with the FCC.
Note: You must not connect your fax
machine to:
• Coin-operated systems
• Party-line systems
• Most electronic key phone sys-
tems
Also, the phone company can make
changes to its lines, equipment, opera-
tions, or procedures that could affect
the operation of your telephone equip-
ment. The phone company notifies you
of these changes in advance, so you
can take steps to prevent interruption
of your phone service.
Important: The Telephone Consumer
Protection Act of 1991 makes it unlaw-
ful for any person to use a computer or
other electronic device to send any
message via telephone fax machine,
unless the message clearly contains in
a margin at the top or bottom of each
transmitted page or on the first page of
the transmission:
LIGHTNING
Your fax machine has built-in protec-
tion circuits to reduce the risk of dam-
age from surges in phone and power
line current. These protection circuits
meet or exceed FCC requirements.
However, lightning striking the phone
line or power lines can damage your
fax machine.
• The date, time, identification of the
business, individual, or other
entity
• The telephone number of the
sending machine.
To program this information into your
fax machine, see Page 13.
Lightning damage is not common.
Nevertheless, if you live in an area that
has frequent electrical storms, we sug-
gest that you unplug your fax machine
during storms to reduce the possibility
of damage.

Plug one end of the supplied modular
cord into the LINE jack on the back of
the fax machine. Plug the cord’s other
end into a modular telephone line jack.
• Is not in direct sunlight.
• Is near an AC power outlet and
modular phone line jack.
• Is at least 4 inches from other
objects.
• Is not near heating or air condi-
tioner units.
• Does not block the ventilation
openings.
• Keeps cords out of the way of nor-
mal activities.

ations:
• Do not place objects on top of or
under the fax machine.
Note: Your fax machine connects di-
rectly to a modular telephone line jack.
If your telephone wiring does not have
a modular jack, you can update the
wiring yourself or have the telephone
company update it for you.
• Do not place the fax machine on a
rugged surface or on thick carpet
which might cause a jam when
you feed a document.
• Radio Shack stores sell jacks and
adapters to convert older wiring
methods to modular wiring.
• The telephone company charges
to install the necessary jacks.
• The USOC number of the jack to
be installed is RJ11C.

• Store unused thermal paper away
from high temperatures (158°F or
over) and high humidity. These
can darken the paper.
• Store copies away from direct
sunlight and at a temperature
below 94°F. Direct sunlight and
high heat can fade the image.
3. Remove any slack from the roll
and place it in the paper holder in
the direction shown, with both
sides seated securely.
• Avoid storing thermal copies next
to blueprint (diazo) copies and
plastic film or binders. The chemi-
cals in these materials could fade
the image.

Notes:
•
With feature switch 09, you
can change the number of
simulated rings that sound
after the line connects to no
rings (position 00) or between
3 and 11 rings. If you set this
switch to 00, the fax machine
does not sound simulated
rings, and answers callers
with a fax tone.
• If there are 6 seconds of silence,
the fax machine begins sounding
fax tones.
• In your outgoing announcement,
tell callers to press START on their
fax machine to send a fax.
• Automatic switching might not
function properly on certain
answering systems.
•
If the call is long distance, the
caller is charged from the time
the simulated rings start, even
if they hang up as soon as
they hear the fax tones.
• You might have trouble retrieving
answering machine messages
from a remote phone if you con-
nect it to the fax machine. Try set-
ting the fax machine to the manual
reception mode and feature switch
54 to 01 (ON).

PREPARING A
DOCUMENT
MAKING A COPY
You can copy a document to check
how it will be received, or to check the
fax machine’s operation.
The quality of the copy at the receiving
fax machine depends on the quality of
the original document you send. Do
not try to send documents that are:
1. Place the original document (up to
10 pages) face down in the paper
tray. The fax machine automati-
cally draws in the first page.
• Wet or damp
• Covered with wet ink or paste
2. Select a contrast/resolution mode,
if necessary. See “Setting the
Contrast/Resolution” on Page 21.
• Chemically processed (such as
pressure-sensitive paper or car-
bon-coated paper)
Note: For copying, the fax
machine uses fine or superfine
resolution only. The fax machine
uses the fine setting if the resolu-
tion is set to STD.
• Coated (such as glossy paper)
• Too thin (such as onionskin, air-
mail paper, or magazine pages)
• Curled or folded
3. Press COPY. The fax machine dis-
• Made of cloth or metal
plays:
• Larger or smaller than the allow-
able document size (maximum
size 81/2 × 59 inches, minimum
size 57/8 × 57/8 inches)
Note: If a document is exactly 81/2
inches wide, 1/4 inch on both sides
might not fax properly.
ZOOM RATE ? 100 %
Note: If you do not need to make
an enlarged or reduced copy, skip
to Step 5.
4. Press COPY to select the desired
zoom mode. Each time you press
the key, the display changes in this
order, 125%—80%—100%.
To send a document of poor quality,
make a photocopy of the original. Then
fax the copy.
Note: You can turn off the zoom
option. See “Setting the Feature
Switches” on Page 27.
Caution: Remove staples and paper
clips from documents you want to
send. These could damage the fax ma-
chine.
5. Press START. The fax machine
starts to copy. It cuts each page
as it exits the fax machine.

tries, poor phone line quality might
cause transmission errors. The over-
seas feature helps reduce these er-
rors.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your Radio Shack TFX-1032 Fax Machine with Automatic Cutter is an example of
superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you care for
your fax machine so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the fax machine dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry. Liquids might con-
tain minerals that can corrode electronic circuits. If a liquid enters the
fax machine, immediately unplug the AC power cord. Do not turn on
the fax machine. Contact your local Radio Shack store for service.
Use and store the fax machine only in normal temperature environ-
ments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic de-
vices, discolor receiving paper, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Handle the fax machine gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the fax machine to work im-
properly.
Keep the fax machine away from dust and dirt, which can cause pre-
mature wear of parts.
Wipe the fax machine with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it look-
CLEANER
ing new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong de-
tergents.
Modifying or tampering with the fax machine’s internal components can cause a
malfunction and might invalidate its warranty and void your FCC authorization to op-
erate it. If the fax machine is not performing as it should, take it to your local Radio
Shack store for assistance. If the trouble is harming the telephone lines, the tele-
phone company might ask you to disconnect the fax machine until you resolve the
problem.
