Set the error correction mode (ECM) settings You can turn on or off ECM settings using the control panel. ECM prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even be reduced, on good phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending time and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On. Turn ECM off only if it increases phone charges substantially, and if you can accept poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges. If ECM is turned off, the quality and transmission speed of faxes you send and receive are affected, and the Speed is automatically set to Medium. You can change ECM settings either from Fax Send or Fax Receive settings using the control panel. 1. On the control panel Home screen, touch Menu. 2. Scroll to Utilities and touch Settings. 3. Touch Fax Settings, and then touch Fax Send. Or Touch Fax Settings, and then touch Fax Receive. 4. Touch the toggle button next to Error Correction Mode to turn it on or off.

NOTE: In some countries/regions, the fax header information is a legal requirement. 1. On the control panel Home screen, touch Menu. 2. Scroll to Utilities and touch Settings. 3.
