After setting up your fax, touch Delayed Send, enter the time and date you would like to send your fax, and then touch Done. This setting can be especially useful in sending information to fax lines that are not readily available during certain hours, or when transmission times are cheaper.

When the first page is scanned, the scanning is paused, and a preview image appears. • Edge Erase-Eliminates smudges or information around the edges of a document. You can choose to eliminate an equal area around all four sides of the paper, or pick a particular edge. Edge Erase will erase whatever is within the area selected, leaving nothing printed on that portion of the paper. • Advanced Duplex-Controls how many sides and what orientation an original document has, and whether original documents are bound along the long edge or the short edge. Improving fax quality Question Tip When should I use Text mode? • Use Text mode when text preservation is the main goal of the fax, and preserving images copied from the original document is not a concern. • Text mode is recommended for faxing receipts, carbon copy forms, and documents that contain only text or fine line art.
