❒ When storing paper, the following precautions should always be followed:

• Do not store paper where it will be exposed to direct sunlight.
• Avoid storing paper in humid areas (humidity: 70% or less).
• Store on a flat surface.

❒ Keep open reams of paper in the package, and store as you would unopened

paper.

❒ Under high temperature and high humidity, or low temperature and low hu-

midity conditions, store paper in a plastic bag.

When your fax machine prints fax messages, it uses heat to fix the image on pa-
per. This heat is generated using a heating roller which must be hot enough to
fuse toner to the paper properly. Because keeping the roller hot all the time con-
sumes electricity, this machine is provided with an Energy Saving mode in
which the heating roller is heated to full temperature only when a message
needs to be printed.
 Two available types of Energy Saving mode are shown in the table below.

Values vary according to options installed and settings of the User Parameters.
