How to Best Set Your Fax Machine for
Loading Fax Response Documents
1. Speed Dial can be used for programming the number you will dial to load
documents into the FAX Attendant. This will be the number which is
displayed in the on-screen instructions during loading of Fax Response
items. Since you will be dialing this number often, programming it as a
speed dial will save you time.
2. Always set your fax machine on Detail mode when loading your fax
response documents. Detail will greatly improve the output callers receive
on their fax machines.
3. When loading pictures, or colored material into your Fax Response
service, these may come out best when using the Halftone feature on
your fax machine. Sixteen or more halftones are recommended for best
output.
4. Try using the Copy feature on your fax machine with a combination of
different settings (e.g. with and without halftones, darken, or lighten) to
see what comes out the best. For example, very small letters, do not
always show up well when using halftones.
5. In some cases, copying the material using a copy machine may be useful
to get the best possible fax output. Try using different contrast levels on
your copier.
