❒ 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.
In Fax Standby mode, letting the heating roller cool to room temperature will re-
duce the amount of electricity the fax machine consumes. However, the fax ma-
chine will not print incoming messages right away, it will store them in memory
and print them out after the roller warms up.
