    							ASSEMBLY AND CONNECTIONS   2 - 13
    4Plug one end of the second telephone line cord for your TAD into the L2 jack 
    of the two-line TAD. Plug the other end into the EXT.jack on the left side of the 
    FAX/MFC.
    You can keep two-line telephones on other wall outlets as always. There are two 
    ways to add a two-line telephone to the FAX/MFC’s wall outlet. You can plug 
    the telephone line cord from the two-line telephone into the L1+L2 jack of the 
    triplex adapter.  Or, you can plug the two-line telephone into the TEL jack of the 
    two-line TAD.
    Multi-Line Connections (PBX)
    Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often relatively simple 
    to connect the machine to a key system or a PBX (Private Branch Exchange), 
    we suggest that you contact the company that installed your telephone system 
    and ask them to connect the FAX/MFC for you. It is advisable to have a separate 
    line for the FAX/MFC. You can then leave the FAX/MFC in FAX mode to 
    receive faxes any time of day or night.
    If the FAX/MFC is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your installer to 
    connect the unit to the last line on the system. This prevents the unit from being 
    activated each time a telephone call is received.
    If You Are Installing the FAX/MFC to Work with a PBX:
    1It is not guaranteed that the unit will operate correctly under all circumstances 
    with a PBX. Any cases of difficulty should be reported first to the company that 
    handles your PBX.
    2If all incoming calls will be answered by a switchboard operator, it is 
    recommended that the Receive Mode be set to MANUAL. All incoming calls 
    should initially be regarded as telephone calls.
    3(For Canada only) The FAX/MFC may be used with either pulse or tone dialing 
    telephone service.
    As with all fax units, this machine must be connected to a two wire system. If 
    your line has more than two wires, proper connection of the FAX/MFC cannot 
    be made.

    Custom Features on Your Phone Line
    If you have Voice Mail, Caller ID, Call Waiting, Call Waiting/Caller ID,  
    RingMaster, an answering service, an alarm system or other custom features on 
    one phone line, it may create a problem with the operation of your MFC.
    (See 
    I have difficulty with custom features on a single line., page 13-9.) 
    						
    							ON-SCREEN PROGRAMMING   3 - 1
    33On-Screen Programming
    User-Friendly Programming
    We have designed your FAX/MFC with on-screen programming using 
    navigation keys. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all 
    the menu selections your FAX/MFC has to offer.
    Since your programming is done on the LCD, we created step-by-step on-screen 
    prompts to help you program your FAX/MFC. All you need to do is follow the 
    prompts as they guide you through the menu selections and programming 
    options. Additionally, you can program settings more quickly by pressing 
    Menu/Set and the menu number using the dial pad.
    Menu Selection Table
    You can probably perform most of these programming operations without the 
    Owner’s Manual. To help you understand the menu selections and options that 
    are found in the FAX/MFC programs, use the Menu Selection Table on 
    page 3-3.
    You can program your FAX/MFC by pressing Menu/Set followed by the menu 
    numbers. For example: to set FAX RESOLUTION to FINE, press 
    Menu/Set, 2, 2, 2  and   to select FINE, and then press Menu/Set.
    Alternating Displays
    Sometimes, the LCD alternates between the active setting and a Help message 
    giving brief instructions about how to proceed.  The message you’ll probably 
    see most often is shown below. When you place an original in the ADF, the 
    message appears to tell you that you can dial a number and send a fax, or you 
    can make a copy.
