Send a standard fax
You can easily send a single- or multiple-page black-and-white or color fax by using the printer
control panel.
NOTE: If you need printed confirmation that your faxes were successfully sent, enable fax
confirmation before sending any faxes.
TIP: You can also send a fax manually from a phone or by using monitor dialing. These features
allow you to control the pace of your dialing. They are also useful when you want to use a calling card
to charge the call and you have to respond to tone prompts while dialing.
To send a standard fax from the printer control panel
1. Load your original print-side down in the left-rear corner of the scanner glass or print-side up in
the ADF.
For more information, see
Load an original on the scanner glass on page 14 or Load an original
in the automatic document feeder (ADF) on page 15.
2. Touch Fax.
3. Enter the fax number by using the keypad.
TIP: To add a pause in the fax number you are entering, touch * repeatedly, until a dash (-)
appears on the display.
4. Touch Black or Color.
If the printer detects an original loaded in the automatic document feeder, it sends the document
to the number you entered.
TIP: If the recipient reports issues with the quality of the fax you sent, you can try changing the
resolution or contrast of your fax.
