Configuring Line Settings to Suit Your Environment

Before fax transmission

Check whether to connect this machine directly to a public line or via PBX (private branch exchange).

To correctly send a fax, configure settings to suit the connection method. For details, contact your service representative.

When directly connecting to a public line

Specify the line type in [Dialing Method] to suit your environment.

For details on the setting procedure, refer to [Configuring the Line Usage Settings] .

When connecting to PBX (private branch exchange)

Configure settings to connect this machine to PBX (private branch exchange). This displays the [Out-side] key on the destination specification screen. When you specify the destination using the [Out-side] key, it prevents cancellation of significant digits from occurring to a dialed number, which allows a fax to be sent to the correct destination.

For details on the setting procedure, refer to [Configuring connection settings for a PBX environment] .

Tips

  • If a cancellation of significant digits in a dialed number occurs, "31-234-XXXX" may be sent even when "03-1234-XXXX" was specified as the fax number. When you specify the destination using the [Out-side] key, you can prevent a sending error due to a cancellation of significant digits in a dialed number.
