Important safety information
Do not disassemble this machine or attempt any procedures not described in this manual. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. This machine must only be connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) outlet. Connecting it to any other kind of outlet will damage the machine and invalidate the warranty. Do not install or use the machine near water, or when you are wet. Take care not to spill any liquids on the machine. Unplug the machine from the power outlet and telephone jack and consult a qualified service representative if any of the following situations occur: - Liquid has been spilled into the machine or the machine has been exposed to rain or water. - The machine produces odors, smoke, or unusual noises. - The power cord is frayed or damaged. - The machine has been dropped or the housing damaged. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord, and do not install the machine where people may walk on the power cord. Never insert objects of any kind into slots or openings on the machine. This could create a risk of fire or electric shock. If an object falls into the machine that you cannot remove, unplug the machine and consult a qualified service representative. Do not place this machine on an unstable cart, stand or table. The machine could be seriously damaged if it falls. 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 bare telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been disconnected at the network interface.

Keep dust away from the machine.
Keep the area around the machine clear.

About condensation

If the machine is moved from a cold to a warm place, it is possible that condensation 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.
Connect the handset as shown and place it on the handset rest.
The ends of the handset cord are identical, so they will go into

either jack.

Make sure the handset cord goes into the jack marked with a handset symbol on the side of the machine!
Use the handset to make ordinary phone calls, or to transmit and receive documents manually.

Power cord

Plug the power cord into a 120 V, 60 Hz, grounded (3-prong) AC outlet. Caution! Do not plug the power cord into any other kind of outlet. This will damage the machine and is not covered under the warranty.
The machine does not have a power on/off switch, so the power is turned on and off by simply plugging in or unplugging the power cord.
Note: 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.

Telephone line cord

Insert one end of the line cord into the jack on the back of the machine marked TEL. LINE. Insert the other end into a standard (RJ11C) single-line wall telephone jack.

TE SEL. T T EL LI. NE

Be sure to insert the telephone line cord into the TEL. LINE jack. Do not insert it into the TEL. SET jack!

Display messages

One of the following messages will appear while the fax rings if caller information is not available. NO SERVICE No caller information was received from your telephone company. Make sure that the telephone company has activated your service. Noise on the telephone line prevented reception of caller information. The call was made from an area which does not have a caller identification service, or the callers service is not compatible with that of your local phone company.
CALLER-ID ERROR OUT OF AREA
PRIVATE CALL Caller information was not provided by the telephone company at the callers request.
Viewing the Caller ID list
If you subscribe to a Caller ID service and have turned on the Caller ID function, your fax machine will keep information on the most recent 20 calls and faxes you have received. You can view this information, which consists of the name and number of each caller, in the Caller ID List.
After you have received 20 calls, each new call will delete the
oldest call. Follow the steps below to view the Caller ID List in the display. If desired, you can immediately dial a number when it appears.
To print out the list, see Chapter 9, Printing Reports and Lists.
The display will show: REVIEWING CALLS
Press the * key to scroll through the list from the most recent call, or the # key to scroll through the list from the oldest call. If you want to dial one of the numbers in the list, scroll through the list until the number appears in the display.

11. Troubleshooting

Problems and Solutions
If you have any problems with your fax, first refer to the following troubleshooting guide. If you cannot solve the problem, call Sharp's Customer Assistance Center at 1-800-BE SHARP. Line error
Problem LINE ERROR appears in the display. Solution Try the transaction again. If the error persists, check the following: Check the connection. The cord from the TEL. LINE jack to the wall jack should be no longer than six feet. Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the same telephone line. Check with the other party to make sure their fax machine is functioning properly. Have your telephone line checked for line noise. Try connecting the fax machine to a different telephone line. If the problem still occurs, your fax machine may need service.

all.book Page 131 Wednesday, April 26, 2000
Dialing and transmission problems
Problem No dial tone when you pick up the handset or press the SPEAKER key. Dialing is not possible. Solution Make sure the handset cord is connected to the correct jack. See Connecting the handset on page 11. Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into a power outlet. Make sure that the telephone line is properly connected to both the TEL. LINE jack and the wall jack.
The power is on, but no transmission takes place.
Make sure that the receiving machine has paper. Make sure that the telephone line cord is plugged into the TEL. LINE jack, and not the TEL. SET jack. If the receiving machine is in manual mode with no attendant, reception will not be possible. Check the display for error messages. Pick up the handset and check for a dial tone.
Nothing is printed at the receiving end. A distorted image is received at the other end.
Make sure that the document for transmission is placed face down in the feeder. Noise on the telephone line may cause distortion. Try sending the document again. Make a copy of the document on your fax machine. If the copy is also distorted, your fax machine may need service.
Make sure that the fax machine is set to the correct dialing mode for your telephone line. See Connecting the telephone line cord on page 13.
all.book Page 132 Wednesday, April 26, 2000
Reception and copying problems
Problem The fax machine doesn't receive documents automatically. Solution Make sure that the reception mode is set to FAX. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service, make sure that the Distinctive Ring function is set to the correct ring pattern. If you do not subscribe to a distinctive ring service, make sure that Distinctive Ring is set to OFF SETTING. (See Distinctive Ring on page 99.) Make sure that the telephone line cord is plugged into the TEL. LINE jack, and not the TEL. SET jack. Make sure that the document is loaded properly in the feeder of the transmitting machine. Make a copy or print a report to confirm the printing ability of your machine. It is important to select a paper that is appropriate for the thermal transfer printer in your fax. We recommend using laser quality paper that has a very smooth finish. Copier paper will work, but it sometimes tends to yield a lighter print quality. Ask the other party to send higher contrast documents. If the contrast is still too low, your fax machine may need service. Make a copy or print a report to check your machines printing ability. Noise on the telephone line may cause distortion. Have the other party try sending the document again. The print head may be dirty. See Print head on page 126. Make a copy or print a report on your fax machine. If the copy or report is also distorted, your fax machine may need service.

The power is on, but no reception takes place. The printing paper comes out blank when you try to receive a document.
General print quality is poor.
The received document is faint.
Received images are distorted.
all.book Page 133 Wednesday, April 26, 2000
A received document or copy prints out in strips.
Make sure the operation panel and the printer compartment cover under the operation panel are completely closed (press down on both sides of each). (To close the printer compartment cover, grasp the top of the operation panel and pull to open it, and then press down on both sides of the printer compartment cover.) Any dirt or material on the scanning glass will cause spots to appear on copies and transmitted faxes. Clean the scanning glass as explained on page 129. If reception or copying takes place continuously for a long time, the print head may overheat. Turn off the power and let it cool down.
The quality of copies is poor and/or black spots appear.
Reception/copying is interrupted.
Answering machine connection
Problem The answering machine connection does not operate properly. Solution Make sure your fax machine's reception mode is set to A.M. Make sure your fax machine's TEL. LINE jack is connected to the wall jack. Make sure your fax machine's TEL. SET jack is connected to your answering machine's telephone line jack (not the answering machine's extension phone jack). Make sure your answering machine's outgoing message is under 10 seconds. Make sure that the Quiet Detect Time setting is set to three or four seconds (see page 91). Make sure that the Distinctive Ring function is set to OFF SETTING (see page 99). If you have checked all of the above and the hookup still doesn't operate properly, call the Customer Assistance Center.
all.book Page 134 Wednesday, April 26, 2000

General problems

Problem Information cannot be programmed in the fax. Solution Make sure the fax is plugged in and the imaging film and paper have been loaded. (Programming is not possible if the imaging film and printing paper have not been loaded.) See Loading the Imaging Film and Loading Printing Paper in Chapter 1. Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into a power outlet. Connect another electrical appliance to the outlet to see if it has power. The machine does not respond when you press any of its keys. Automatic document feeding does not work for transmission or copying. Voice calls taken on an extension phone are interrupted by the fax. If a beep sound is not made when you press the keys, unplug the power cord and then plug it in again several seconds later. Check the size and weight of the document (see Transmittable Documents on page 50).

Nothing appears in the display.
The fax may interrupt during a voice call if the reception mode is set to A.M. To prevent interruption on a tone dial extension phone, press any three keys on the extension phone after answering. (Note: Do not enter the code to activate fax reception.) Make sure you have not run out of paper. Make sure the transmitting machine is set to answer automatically. If the transmitting machine has polling security, make sure that your fax number has been entered both in your machine and in the transmitting machine.
No reception occurs when polling is attempted.

Health Hazards : The ingredients are not listed in ACGIH(1986) and OSHA(1989) except carbon black and paraffin wax. Carcinogenicity : In 1996 the IARC reevaluated carbon black as a Groupe 2B carcinogen (possible human carcinogen). This classification is given to chemicals for which there is inadequate human evidence, but sufficient animal evidence on which to base an opinion of carcinogenicity. The classification is based upon the development of lung tumors in rats receiving chronic inhalation exposures to free carbon black at levels that induce particle overload of the lung. Studies performed in animal models other than rats did not show any association between carbon black and lung tumors.
