Introduction
Welcome to the FO-1460 and thank you for choosing Sharp! In addition to pro-
viding you with the ease and convenience of plain-paper printing, the FO-1460
features a variety of special functions designed to increase the range and power
of your communications.
This manual gives you easy-to-follow instructions for installing and using the
FO-1460. The Table of Contents will show you where instructions for using
each feature are located. Whilst you may not need to read every section in detail
at first, we recommend you at least review them briefly.
If you have any questions or problems which cannot be solved by reading this
manual, please contact your Sharp dealer.
♦Keys, switches, and labels on the machine are indicated in BOLD print.
♦Messages appearing in the display are indicated in CAPITAL LETTERS.
Important safety information
•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.
•Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
•Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.
•Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line
has been disconnected at the network interface.
•Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
•Avoid using a telephone (other than a cordless type) during an electrical storm.
There may be a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
•Do not use a telephone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak.
•Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. Take care
not to spill any liquids on the machine.

<P=002>
Regulatory information
This facsimile machine is only designed to operate in the country where approved.
Your Sharp FO-1460 Facsimile Transceiver is approved for connection to the Public
Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), it is also approved for connection via a Private
Branch Exchange (PBX), and can be used with either Loop Disconnect (LD) or Dual
Tone Multi-Frequency (DTMF) signalling.
Your facsimile machine is not suitable as an extension to some payphones or for use on
shared service lines.
REN
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) of your fax machine is 1.
The total number of instruments that can be connected to an exclusive line is determined
by adding the REN values of each instrument. The total should not exceed 4.0. A
telephone provided by BT is assumed to have a REN of 1 unless otherwise marked.
Satisfactory ringer operation can not be guaranteed in installations consisting of mixed
apparatus types, even if the REN value does not exceed 4.
Emergency services
Emergency services (999) can be called from this apparatus. Please display on the
telephone the number required to access that service, together with the number of the
telephone, using the label provided.
Private branch exchange (PBX) connection
Your facsimile machine is approved for connection to the Public Telephone Network
(PSTN) via compatible PBX systems. Consult your supplier for a list of suitable PBX
systems. It cannot be guaranteed that this facsimile machine will operate correctly under
all possible conditions of connection to compatible PBX systems.
This facsimile machine has been approved for use of the following facilities:
Simple telephone
Tone dialling (DTMF)
Loop disconnect (Pulse dialling)
Memory dialling
Loudspeaking (Call Progress Monitor)
On-hook dialling

<P=003>
Automatic answering
Automatic dialling
Automatic clearing
Last number redial
Time break or Earth recall
Series connection of extension telephone(s)
Any other usage will invalidate the approval of the facsimile if as a result it then ceases
to comply with the standards against which approval was granted.
Series connection
When connected via series apparatus, difficulties may occasionally be experienced when
making calls to the PSTN and by both parties during telephone conversations. If
difficulties are experienced, contact the supplier or maintainer of the series apparatus in
the first instance.
While operation may be possible initially, changes to or modernisation of the network
taking place in the normal course of events may result in the facsimile equipment being
connected to a network service with which it was not designed to be compatible. Failure
of the facsimile / series apparatus to work under these circumstances may not be the
fault of the network operator.
The voltage drop introduced by your facsimile between the PSTN and the associated
apparatus at a current of 40mA d.c. is 2 volts, therefore no additional series equipment
may be connected.

Points to keep in mind when setting up
♦The fax must be installed on a level surface.
♦Keep the fax away from air conditioners, heaters, direct sunlight, and dust.
♦Provide easy access to the front, back, and sides of the fax. In particular, keep
the area in front of the fax clear, or the original document may jam as it
comes out after scanning.
♦If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that con-
densation may form on the scanning glass, preventing proper scanning of
documents for transmission. To remove the condensation, turn on the power
and wait approximately two hours before using the machine.
♦If your area experiences a high incidence of lightning or power surges, we rec-
ommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone lines.
Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone specialty stores.
