Users in the U.S.A.
Pre-Installation Requirements for Canon Facsimile Equipment
A. Location
Supply a suitable table, cabinet, or desk. See p. 13-2 for the machine’s weight and dimensions.
B. Order Information
1. Only a single line, touch-tone or rotary telephone set is to be used.
2.  Order an RJ11-C modular jack (USOC code), which should be installed by\
 the telephone 
company. If the RJ11-C jack is not present, installation cannot occur.
3.  Order a regular voice grade line or the equivalent from your telephone c\
ompany’s business 
representative.
Use one line per machine.
DDD (DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE
-or-
IDDD (INTERNATIONAL DIRECT DISTANCE DIAL) LINE IF YOU COMMUNICATE OVER\
SEAS
Canon recommends an individual line following industry standards, e.g. the 2500 (Touch Tone) or 500 
(Rotary/Pulse Dial) telephones. A dedicated extension off a PBX machine without “Call Waiting” can be 
used with the machine. Key telephone systems are not recommended because\
 they send non-standard 
signals to individual telephones for ringing and special codes, which may cause a fax error. This machine 
is not supported on Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP).
C.  Power Requirements
This equipment should be connected to a standard 120-volt AC, three-wire\
 grounded outlet 
only. Do not connect this machine to an outlet or power line shared with\
 other appliances that 
cause “electrical noise.” Air conditioners, electric typewriters, \
copiers, and machines of this 
sort generate electrical noise which often interferes with communication\
s equipment and the 
sending and receiving of documents.

Connection of the Equipment
This equipment complies with Part 68 of the FCC rules and the requirements adopted 
by the ACTA. On the rear panel of this equipment is a label that contains, among other 
information, a product identifier in the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this 
number must be provided to the telephone company.
An FCC compliant telephone cord and modular jack are provided with this equipment. This 
equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using 
a compatible modular jack which is Part 68 compliant. See the Starter Guide for details.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) is used to determine the number of devices that 
may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs on a telephone line may result 
in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas, the 
sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that 
may be connected to a line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone 
company. The REN for this product is part of the product identifier that has the format US:
AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without a decimal point (e.g., 10 
is a REN of 1.0).
This equipment may not be used on coin service provided by the telephone company.
Connection to party lines is subjected to state tariffs.
In Case of Equipment Malfunction
Should any malfunction occur which cannot be corrected by the procedures described in 
this guide, disconnect the equipment from the telephone line, unplug the network cable (if 
connected), and unplug the power cord. The telephone line should not be reconnected or 
the power cord plugged in until the problem is completely resolved. Users should contact 
Canon Authorized Service Facilities for servicing of equipment. Information regarding 
Authorized Service Facility locations can be obtained by calling Canon Customer Care 
Center (1-800-828-4040).
