A short length of the fax paper will feed out and be cut off. (If this doesn’t
happen, repeat the loading procedure.)
Note: The fax has a built-in anti-curl mechanism that will help to reduce
paper curling problems. The anti-curl mechanism will be more effective at
the beginning of the paper roll and less effective towards the end.
Replacing the fax paper
When the paper runs out, OUT OF PAPER will appear in the display.
Reception and copying will no longer be possible. To replace the paper, first
take out the old roll, then load the new roll as described above.
To assure a long life for your fax and obtain the best reproduction quality, we
recommend that you use the following Sharp fax (thermal) paper which is
available from your dealer:
FO-40PR THERMAL PAPER (50 m roll)
♦ The use of any other paper may result in poor copy quality and excessive
build-up of residue on the head. This is due to the different thermal
reactive characteristics of each manufacturer’s paper.
Handling fax paper
Do not unpack the paper until you are ready to use it. It may become
discoloured if:
♦ It is stored at high humidity or high temperature.
♦ It is exposed to direct sunlight.
♦ It comes in contact with glue, thinner, or a freshly copied blueprint.
♦ A rubber eraser or adhesive tape is used on it, or it is scratched.
