Fax > Fax Settings

Scan Settings:

  • Original Size (Glass)

    Select the size and orientation of the original you placed on the scanner glass.

  • Color Mode

    Select whether to scan in color or in monochrome.

  • Resolution

    Select the resolution of the outgoing fax.

  • Density

    Sets the density of the outgoing fax.

  • Remove Background

    Detects the paper color (background color) of the original document, and removes or lightens the color. Depending on the darkness and vividness of the color, it may not be removed or lightened

  • ADF Continuous Scan

    When sending a fax from the ADF, you cannot add originals in the ADF after starting scanning. If you place different sized originals in the ADF, all of the originals are sent at the largest size among them. Enable this option so that the printer asks if you want to scan another page after an original in the ADF has finished scanning. Then you can sort and scan your originals by size and send them as a single fax.

Fax Send Settings:

  • Direct Send

    Sends monochrome faxes to a single recipient as soon as the connection is made, without saving the scanned image to memory. If you do not enable this option, the printer starts the transmission after saving the scanned image to memory and may cause a memory full error when sending many pages. By using this option, you can avoid the error, but it takes longer to send the fax. You cannot use this option when sending a fax to multiple recipients.

  • Send Fax Later

    Sends a fax at a time you specified. Only a monochrome fax is available when using this option.

  • Add Sender Information

    • Add Sender Information:

      Select the position where you want to include the header information (sender name and fax number) in the outgoing fax, or not to include the information.

      - Off: Sends a fax with no header information.

      - Outside of Image: Sends a fax with header information in the top white margin of the fax. This keeps the header from overlapping with the scanned image, however, the fax received by the recipient may be printed across two sheets depending on the size of the originals.

      - Inside of Image: Sends a fax with header information approximately 7 mm lower than the top of the scanned image. The header may overlap with the image, however, the fax received by the recipient will not be split into two documents.

    • Fax Header:

      Select the header for the recipient. To use this feature, you should register multiple headers in advance.

    • Additional Information:

      Select the information you want to add. You can select one from Your Phone Number and Destination List.

  • Transmission Report

    Prints a transmission report automatically after you send a fax. Select Print on Error to print a report only when an error occurs. If Settings > General Settings > Fax Settings > Report Settings>Attach Fax image to report is set, an image of the document is printed with the report.

  • Clear All Settings

    Restores all settings in Fax Settings to their defaults.
