3 - 1 PAPER 33Paper About Paper The quality of your document can be affected by the kind of paper you use in the fax machine. You can use plain paper, inkjet paper (coated paper), glossy paper, transparencies and envelopes. We recommend testing various papers before purchasing large quantities. For best results, use the recommended paper. To ensure the best print quality for the settings you’ve chosen, always set the Paper Type to match the type of paper you load. Handling and Using Special Paper Store paper in the original bag, and keep it sealed. Keep the paper flat and away from moisture, direct sunlight and heat. The coated side of glossy paper is shiny. Do not touch the shiny (coated) side. Load glossy paper with the shiny side facing up toward you. Do not touch either side of transparencies, because they absorb water and perspiration easily and may cause decreased output quality. Transparencies designed for laser printers/copiers may stain your next document. Use only recommended transparencies. Recommended Paper for the FAX-1800C Plain Paper: Xerox 4200 Inkjet Paper: KODAK ® Premium Inkjet Paper (Matte) Glossy Paper: JETPRINT PHOTO ® Graphic image paper — Gloss Finish Transparencies: 3M Transparency Film (CG3410) NoteWhen using inkjet paper, glossy paper or transparencies, avoid stacking by removing each page after copying or receiving faxes. NoteThe output quality depends on the paper type and paper brand. Visit us at http://solutions.brother.com and check the latest recommendations for paper that can be used with the FAX-1800C.

ON-SCREEN PROGRAMMING 4 - 1 44On-Screen Programming User-Friendly Programming We have designed your fax machine with on-screen programming using navigation keys. User-friendly programming helps you take full advantage of all the menu selections your fax machine 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 machine. 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 machine programs, use the Menu Selection Table on page 4-3. Alternating Displays Sometimes, the LCD alternates between the active setting, and a help message giving brief instructions about how to proceed.

For example: to set FAX RESOLUTION to FINE, press Menu/Set, 2, 2, 2 and to select FINE, and then press Menu/Set. or FAX: NO. & START COPY: NO. & COPY
