Introduction
Welcome to the FO-1660M and thank you for choosing Sharp! The FO-1660M
is a multifunction facsimile machine that can also be used as convenient copier,
scanner, and printer for your computer. Fax operations can be performed either
from the operation panel of the FO-1660M, or from your computer using the
provided Multifunction Interface software.
This manual gives you easy-to-follow instructions for installing the FO-1660M,
connecting it to a personal computer, and performing fax operations from the
operation panel of the FO-1660M. The accompanying Multifuncton Interface
operation manual gives you instructions for installing the Multifunction
Interface software and performing scan, print and fax operations from your
computer.
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.

<P=002>
Regulatoryinformation
This facsimile machine is only designed to operate in the country where approved.
Your Sharp FO-1660M 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.

♦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
recommend that you install surge protectors for the power and telephone
lines. Surge protectors can be purchased at most telephone specialty stores.

LoadingtheImagingFilm
The printer unit in your fax creates printed text and images by applying heat to
the imaging film, which causes ink to be transferred from the film to the page.
Follow the steps below to install or replace the imaging film.
1Press the release button marked OPEN
and open the print compartment cover.
•Caution! The printing head (the strip
of metal on the underside of the cover)
applies heat to the imaging film. It
may be hot if a document has just been
printed.
2If you are replacing the imaging film,
take the old film out of the printing com-
partment and remove the three (3) green
gears and the green flange from the ends
of the spools.
DO NOT DISCARD THE GREEN
GEARS AND THE GREEN
FLANGE!
