Basic faxing


	For special faxing features, refer to the Advanced Guide (see Fax features). Accessing menus may differ from model to model (see Menu overview or Control panel overview).

You cannot use this machine as a fax via the internet phone. For more information ask your internet service provider.
We recommend using traditional analog phone services (PSTN: Public Switched Telephone Network) when connecting telephone lines to use a fax machine. If you use other Internet services (DSL, ISDN, VolP), you can improve the connection quality by using the Micro‐filter. The Micro‐filter eliminates unnecessary noise signals and improves connection quality or Internet quality. Since the DSL Micro‐filter is not provided with the machine, contact your Internet service provider for use on DSL Micro‐filter.
