OpenLCR
2.  Setting Up and Using OpenLCR
Your fax machine features OpenLCR technology, which helps you save money 
on long distance and international phone calls (both fax and voice) by 
automatically routing each call for the best available rate. 
♦OpenLCR service is free of charge. The only cost to you is that of a periodic 
call (usually once every three months) to OpenLCR to receive the latest 
rate data. (Once you have registered with OpenLCR, your fax machine 
automatically makes this call.)
♦All calls routed by OpenLCR are consolidated on your monthly phone bill.
You can register with OpenLCR by fax, phone, or through OpenLCR’s Web 
site (www.OpenLCR.com).
♦Before registering, be sure to read the information on the Fax 
Transmission Test and OpenLCR Line Activation Form and Te r m s  o f  
Service sheet included with your fax machine. If you have any questions, 
call OpenLCR at 970-206-1207.
♦OpenLCR uses Caller ID for identification purposes when your fax calls 
OpenLCR to receive rate information. Even if you have requested your 
telephone company to withhold your Caller ID information when you place 
calls, your fax will still automatically transmit this information only when it 
calls OpenLCR.
♦It is possible to register for and use OpenLCR if you do not subscribe to a 
Caller ID service; however, in some instances where rate data must be 
changed on an emergency basis, your fax may not be able to respond 
automatically to OpenLCR’s call to notify your fax that it must receive new 
rate data. If this occurs, old, incorrect data will continue to be used. 
♦Please note that the agreement you enter into by registering is between you 
and OpenLCR; it is not between you and any carriers.
To take advantage of this 
feature, you will need to 
register with OpenLCR 
and download the rate 
data to your fax machine.

new location. In this case, repeat the 
registration procedure to give

2. Setting Up 
OpenLCR
Caution! If you unplug the fax machine or an interruption occurs in your 
power supply, the rate data will be erased. If this happens, the highlighted “C” 
in the display will blink to alert you.The fax machine will automatically call 
OpenLCR within the next 24 hours to receive new rate data; however, if you 
want to use OpenLCR service before that time, you should download the rate 
table manually as explained on page 26.
♦We recommend that you do not unplug the fax machine on a regular basis 
(for example at night or on the weekends), as this may result in a large 
number of calls to OpenLCR and a higher phone bill.
Symbols related to OpenLCR that may appear in the display are shown below. 
Mark Meaning
OpenLCR has been activated and is ready for use.
   (Blinking)OpenLCR cannot be used because the rate data has been erased. 
Your fax will automatically call OpenLCR within the next 24 hours to 
receive new data, or you can download the data manually if you need 
to use OpenLCR immediately (see page 26).
The rate data in the fax is no longer correct and the fax cannot connect 
to OpenLCR to obtain new data. See What to do if “E” appears in the 
display on page 29.
OpenLCR has been temporarily turned off. See Temporarily turning off 
OpenLCR below.
Rate data was not yet available when your fax called OpenLCR. Your 
fax will automatically call OpenLCR again when the rate data is 
available. Until that time, long distance calls will be routed through 
your primary carrier.
 (Blinking)Your fax will automatically call OpenLCR within the next 24 hours to 
learn when correct rate data will be available. 
Your fax did not receive the rate data because Open LCR was unable 
to identify your Caller ID. This problem could be noise on the phone 
line, or because your caller ID signal is blocked. Try retrieving the rate 
data several more times. If C appears, you have retrieved the rate 
data successfully. If you are still having problems, contact your phone 
company and make sure they support Caller ID. You can remove the 
H in your display by turning off the Open LCR function (press the 
OpenLCR key followed by #, 1, 8, 4, and #). You can also register for 
OpenLCR by phone to retrieve the rate data (see page 24).
