Dialing within a PBX
If you have selected “PBX” for the line you’re using on your fax machine,
you must enter the !character when dialing from one PBX extension to
another PBX extension. This character tells your fax machine not to dial
the PSTN access code, which your machine uses to reach an outside line.

acter described in the “Autodialer” section of your fax machine’s
operating instructions. Please don’t confuse them.
PBX dialing with the autodialer
Note: If using the autodialer to dial from one PBX extension to another,
you must include the !character into the autodialer number you
programmed, as described below.
Note: The following instructions presume you are familiar with how to set
and use your machine’s autodialer. If necessary, consult your fax
machine’s operating instructions.

Troubleshooting
Error codes
Occasionally, your fax machine will detect a problem with the phone line
during transmissions. If this happens, your machine prints an error
report. The error code listed in the “Result” column of the error report
indicates the specific problem encountered. The following error codes are
in addition to the error codes listed in the “Just in case” section of your
fax machine’s operating instructions:
D.0.10 The call couldn’t be completed. This can happen if the commu-
nication type for both phone lines is set to Rx (receive-only).
D.0.12 The call couldn’t be completed. The phone line type is set to
PSTN, but the telephone number called is a PBX extension.
D.0.13 The call couldn’t be completed. The phone line type is set to
PBX, but the telephone number called is a PSTN number. You
must set a PSTN access number on your machine to reach an
outside line.
R.1.5 The fax machine didn’t detect the silence at the end of the call,
which is necessary to receive an RCR.
R.8.1 A compatibility error occurred while recieving.
R.8.10 Line noise or other problems prevented communication during
recieving.
R.8.11 The fax machine timed out while waiting for the signal.
T.3.2 The fax machine didn’t detect the silence which marks the end
of a call.
T.8.1 A compatibility error occurred while transmitting.
T.8.10 Line noise or other problems prevented communication while
attempting to transmit.
T.8.11 The remote fax machine didn’t complete the equalizer training
phase.

“Check Message” report. This printout lists the following information
about the transmission:
• The error code
• A communications error messages (see below)
• The phone number (or TTI) of the fax machine with which your
machine had attempted to communicate
• The phone line number (line #1 or line #2 on your fax machine).

Your fax machine has three communication settings:
•Tx/Rx (Transmit/Receive) — You can send and receive calls/faxes.
•Tx (Transmit) — You can only call/fax.
•Rx (Receive) — You can only receive calls/faxes.
Types of phone numbers
The following types of telephone numbers can be used:
•PSTN — A regular phone number.
•PBX — A PBX extension.
•PSTN call placed from a PBX.
Each telephone number is characterized by:
• Its phone line type

Regulatory information
United States ofAmerica
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) information
Ringer Equivalence Number (REN): AC REN, 0.3B; DC REN, 0.3
This facsimile machine has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable pro-
tection against such interference in a residential installation.
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 communica-
tions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment causes interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on), the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected
• Consult the dealer or a experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules. At the back of this equipment is a label
that contains, among other information, the FCC registration number and REN for this equip-
ment. If requested, you must provide this information to the telephone company.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular plug is provided with this equipment. This equip-
ment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible
modular jack which is Part 68 compliant.
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 operation of your equipment, the telephone com-
pany will give you notice, in writing, to allow you to make any changes necessary to maintain
uninterrupted service.
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.
The sum of all RENs on your telephone line should be fewer than five (5) in order to assure proper
service from the telephone company. Sometimes, a sum of five (5) may not be usable on a given
telephone line.
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 page 3 of these operating instructions.
13

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) is prohibited. Connection to party line service is sub-
ject to State tariffs.
If problems arise
If any of your telephone equipment is not operating properly, you should immediately remove it
from your telephone line, as it may cause harm to the telephone network. If the telephone com-
pany 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.
In the event repairs are ever needed on your fax machine, they should be done by Pitney Bowes.

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.
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 sin-
gle-line individual service may be extended with a certified connector assembly (telephone
extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with these conditions may not
prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by the supplier. Any equipment malfunctions 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.
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.
Caution: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the
appropriate electric 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 termi-
nation on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the requirement that
the total of the load numbers of all the devices doesn’t exceed 100. The IC Load Number for your
equipment is 0.2.
