Use it as a reference while moving through the levels of the menu.
It is NOT a report of the current menu settings.
The Configuration Report provides a list of the current menu settings.
See "Reports, Configuration Report."
Saving Money
Most phone services offer lower phone rates during off-peak times and for local phone connections.
Your fax machine allows you to take advantage of lower phone rates. Some savings depend on the options you have purchased and the type of fax machines you communicate with.
You can specify the time your outgoing faxes will be sent.
Delayed Transmission
This feature allows you to send documents at a specified time and date.
You do not have to manually start the transmission.
For more information, refer to "Advanced Operations,
Delayed Fax Transmissions."
Relay Faxing
This feature allows you to send documents to one distant fax machine, which then forwards the documents to other fax machines. This reduces the total number of long distance calls.
Here is a typical relay fax situation.
The head office of a company sends a fax to the regional head offices. The regional office forwards the fax to the local branch offices.
For more information, refer to “Advanced Operations, Relay Faxing.”
Control Access to Your Machine
You can control access to your machine. The method you use determines the amount of access control.
- A password (Department Code) must be entered or the machine cannot be used.
The machine can only be used by people who have the password (Department Code). Up to 99 passwords (Department Codes) can be programmed.
How could you use this?
If different departments share the machine, each department could have its own password (Department Code).
For more information, see “Customizing Features and Operations, Changing Operation Functions, Department Code.”
Be sure to record all passwords (Department Codes).
- Keep the record in a safe place. If you forget a password, you will need to contact a Service Dealer for assistance.
- The machine can only receive or send transmissions to specified locations.
The fax numbers you program as Speed Dials will be the only numbers your machine communicates with.
For more information, see “Basic Faxing, Rejecting Unsolicited Fax Messages.”
- You can monitor the use of the machine by having a copy of every fax it sends or receives to a predetermined number.
For more information, see “Advanced Operation, Backup File TX.”

Your machine can multi-task.
You can load and prepare a document for sending while the machine is receiving or sending another fax.
You do not have to wait for one operation to finish before beginning another.

Safety
Installation Hints
- Install your fax machine in a dust-free location away from direct sunlight.
- Do not plug your fax machine into a power source shared by equipment that produces electrical noise (e.g., air conditioners).
- Leave electronic adjustments to authorized service personnel.
- The LINE terminal connects your fax machine to a standard telephone line. To avoid damage to your telephone system or to the fax machine, do not plug your fax machine into anything other than a standard RJ-11C jack.
-
Your fax machine is intended to be grounded electrically and is equipped with a three-wire grounded power cord. For your safety, do not attempt to defeat your power cord's grounding plug.
-
The electrical outlet and phone jack should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
- The two TEL terminals on the back of the fax machine are only suitable for 2-wire devices. Not all standard telephones will respond to incoming calls when connected to an extension jack.
- This equipment may not necessarily provide for the effective hand-over of a call from a telephone connected to the same line.
- The operation of this equipment on the same line as telephone or other equipment with audible warning devices (such as call waiting) or automatic ring detectors may cause false tripping of the ring detector.
Operation and Maintenance
- Use a dry cloth to clean the control panel and the main body of the unit.
- Aside from the instructions specifically mentioned in this document, your fax machine is not user serviceable. Do not attempt to service the machine or lubricate moving parts by yourself.
- Pull out the AC plug before trying to remove any objects that may have fallen into the machine.
- Immediately disconnect the fax machine if it becomes physically damaged and arrange for its repair or disposal.
- When relocating your fax machine, always disconnect the telephone line before disconnecting the power cord, then reconnect the power cord first.
- This fax machine is not intended to be used in parallel with any other telephone devices.
Toner Cartridge and Image Drum Handling
- Leave unused toner cartridges and image drums in their packages until needed. When replacing a toner cartridge or image drum, re-use the packaging to dispose of the old toner cartridge or image drum.
- Do not expose these components to light for more than five minutes. Never expose the green drum (inside the image drum unit) to direct sunlight.
- Always hold the image drum by the ends—never by the middle. Never touch the green drum inside the image drum unit.
- Exercise care when removing the toner cartridge. Do not let it touch your clothing or porous materials. The toner powder causes permanent stains.
- Small amounts of toner spilled on skin or clothing can be readily removed with soap and cold water. Using warm water will make removing the stain much more difficult.
Emergency First Aid
- If toner is swallowed
Dilute by giving two glasses of water and induce vomiting by administering Syrup of Ipecac (follow manufacturer's instructions). Seek medical attention. Never attempt to induce vomiting or give anything by mouth to a person who is unconscious.
- If toner is inhaled
Take person to an open area for fresh air. Seek medical attention.

- PC Fax Mode [PC]
Auto Receive Mode [FAX]
Your machine is connected to a telephone line reserved only for fax communication.
This is the factory setting.
Your machine assumes all incoming calls are fax messages and automatically receives all incoming fax messages.
Manual Receive Mode [TEL]
You use the same line for both fax and telephone calls and the majority of your incoming calls are telephone calls.
To use this feature, you must have an external, optional handset or telephone connected to your fax machine.
When someone calls, your machine rings like a telephone.
You can answer from an external telephone connected to your machine. If you pick up the hand set and hear fax machine tones, press the Start key to receive the fax. If you do not answer the phone and someone tries to send you a fax message, your machine will not accept it.

Delayed Fax vs. Delayed Batch
A delayed fax transmission is one fax sent to one location, group, or broadcast, at a time and date specified by you.
A delayed batch transmission is a little more complicated.
In a delayed batch transmission, faxes to a single location are not sent until a specified time. The faxes are sent at the same time every day.
Imagine that your fax machine is located in the main office, and you send faxes to your sales force. Your machine can be programmed to hold all documents being sent to a fax number (salesperson) until a time you specify. When it is the specified time, all held documents are sent to the number.
The numbers programmed into One-Touch Keys 31 through 40 are used for delayed batch transmissions.
Delayed Batch Transmissions can ONLY use One Touch
- Keys 31 through 40.

Relay Faxing
What is an example of Relay Faxing? Imagine that you need to send a fax to a number of locations in another area code. With Relay Faxing, you (the relay initiating station) send one fax (transmission) long distance to another machine (the relay key station [hub]). The relay key station (hub) then sends the fax to all of the other machines/locations in the area code, at local rates.
Relay faxing allows one machine to send a document to another machine, which then forwards the document to a number of other locations. Two different machines are involved in transmitting a relay fax: the relay initiating station and the relay key station (hub).
The OKIFAX 5780 machine can function as an initiating station.
The OKIFAX 5980 machine can function as an initiating station and a relay key station (hub).
The relay key station (hub) can send a confirmation report to the relay initiating station when the relay fax session is complete. This confirmation report is called the Relay Broadcast Report.
! The relay initiating station and the relay key station (hub) must coordinate efforts before a relay fax can be sent.
! Relay Faxing is different from group faxing. In Group Faxing, a fax is sent to a preprogrammed group of locations directly from the fax machine.
At this writing, the OKIFAX 2600, OKIFAX 5750/5950 Series, and OKIFAX 5980 are the only OKIFAX machines that can function as relay key stations (hubs).
! If you cannot access Relay Fax features, contact your service dealer. A Service Function setting (Technical Function 36) may require adjustment.
All machines involved in a Relay Fax should be set to Auto Receive mode. See “Setting Basic Features, Setting the Answering Mode.”
Using Your Machine as a Relay Initiating Station
Your machine can act as the relay initiating station, which starts the relay broadcast by sending the original documents.
Before you program your machine to initiate a relay broadcast, you must have the information listed below.
- Relay Password
- Relay Group Numbers
• Relay Key Station (Hub) number - Contact number for Relay Broadcast Report
Get the relay password, the relay group numbers, and the relay key station (hub) number from the relay key station (hub) operator.
The contact number for the relay broadcast report is the number of the relay initiating station, programmed to a special location and in the format used by the relay key station (hub).
Relay Password
This is the 4-digit relay password that is programmed into the relay key station (hub).
Relay Group Numbers
These 2-digit numbers are the numbers of groups of locations programmed into the relay key station (hub).
Relay Key Station (Hub)
The relay key station (hub) is the fax unit that receives the original fax message and then automatically relays or broadcasts the message to other remote fax machines.
For this feature to be available, the relay key station (hub) must be an OKIFAX 2600, OKIFAX 5750/5950 Series, or an OKIFAX 5980 fax machine.
Contact Number for Relay Broadcast Report
The relay key station (hub) can send a confirmation report to the relay initiating station when the relay fax session is complete. This confirmation report is called the Relay Broadcast Report.
To receive the report, the telephone number of the relay initiating station must be programmed into the specified Relay Report Number location. The telephone number of the relay initiating station is called the Relay Report Number.

Sending Documents Requested by Another Fax Machine (Polling Transmission)
Sometimes it is useful to simply load your documents into your fax machine and set it to wait for the receiving fax machine to call and collect them. This is called setting your fax machine to be polled, or polling transmission. Your machine holds data in memory until transmission occurs.
An example of polling transmission is a hospital pharmacy facsimile contacting each unit's facsimile (Pediatrics, Cardiology, Critical Care, etc.) for prescription orders. Staff can load the prescription orders into the unit facsimile machine. The pharmacy facsimile contacts each unit facsimile and requests the orders.
There are three types of polling transmission.
- Feeder (Document Tray) Polling
- Memory Polling
• Fax on Demand (Memory Polling [Bulletin])
Explanation of Polling Transmission Types
Feeder (Document Tray) Polling
In Feeder (Document Tray) Polling, you place the document to be polled in the document tray. A remote machine will then call and collect (poll) the document.
! If you use feeder (document tray) polling, remember that the document remains in the machine until the unit is polled.
Only one remote fax can poll your machine if feeder (document tray) polling is used.
Only the document placed in the feeder (document tray) can be polled.
Feeder (Document Tray) Polling is a one-time occurrence. It can only be repeated by re-loading the document.
Memory Polling
Memory Polling is very similar to Feeder (Document Tray) Polling. The difference is that the document is saved to memory, instead of occupying the feeder (document tray).
In Memory Polling, the document is saved to general memory, not a specific mailbox. When a document to be polled is saved to a mailbox, you are performing Memory Polling (Bulletin), not Memory Polling.
! Only one remote fax can poll your machine if memory polling is used.
Only the document saved in memory can be polled.
Memory Polling is a one-time occurrence. It can only be repeated by re-loading the document and saving it to memory.
Memory Polling (Bulletin)
In Memory Polling (Bulletin), the document to be polled is saved to a Personal (Confidential) Mailbox.
Several remote machines can contact your machine and request the document.
You may also load several documents.
Memory Polling (Bulletin) allows for repeat polls. The remote machines can contact your machine and have the document(s) sent again and again.
Memory Polling (Bulletin) allows you to use your machine as a fax-back system.
The Mailboxes (numbers 1 to 16) are used for Personal
(Confidential) Mailboxes, Memory Polling (Bulletin), and Relay Broadcasting. If you are using these features, remember that the total number of available mailboxes is shared by these functions.
! Print the Personal Box List to see which mailboxes are available. Refer to “Reports, Box Information.”
! Print Memory Polling (Bulletin) allows any number of remote machines to contact your machine. The remote machines can retrieve the document as many times as needed.

Maintenance
This section covers the procedures listed below.
- Cleaning the Scanner Path
• Replacing the Toner Cartridge
• Replacing the Image Drum - Resetting the Image Drum Counter
Cleaning the Scanner Path
For the best possible scanning quality, clean the paper lint and dust accumulated in the area around the contact image sensor (a). Open the control panel and gently wipe the area over the scanner.

natural_image
Technical line drawing of a printer with open lid and paper feed, labeled 'a' (no text or symbols beyond label)Replacing the Toner Cartridge
This machine will only operate using the toner cartridge specified for this machine. The use of any other toner will result in the display of an operation error and in machine malfunction.
Refer to "Options and Accessories" for information on obtaining the correct toner cartridge.
! Warning: Be careful when handling the toner cartridge. Do not let toner spill onto your clothing or other porous materials. If you experience any problems with toner, see the "Installation, Safety."
Toner Yield
The number of pages you can print with one toner cartridge depends on the type of documents you usually receive or copy.
A toner cartridge will print about 5,000 pages/letter size of standard business communications at a typical print coverage of 4% (equivalent of CCITT No. 1 test chart).
The first toner cartridge installed in a new image drum unit will have a decreased yield because the image drum unit has to be filled.
If your machine displays REPLACE TONER CART, replace the toner cartridge with a new one. However, if the print quality is good enough, you can continue to use the toner cartridge without replacing it until the print quality becomes unsatisfactory. If the print density becomes low even before your machine displays REPLACE TONER CART, gently wipe the lens surface of the LED array (see Step 8). If the print quality does not improve, replace the toner cartridge.
! CAUTION: When you open the top cover, you will see a label that reads: (CAUTION-HOT). This part is extremely hot-do not touch it.
1 Lift up on the document tray and swing it up and out of the way.

This machine will only operate using the image drum unit specified by OKI for this machine. The use of any other image drum unit will result in the display of an operation error and in machine malfunction.
Refer to "Options and Accessories" for information on obtaining the correct image drum unit.
! Warning: Be careful when handling the image drum unit. NEVER touch the green surface. Do not let toner spill onto your clothing or other porous materials. If you experience any problems with toner, see "Installation, Safety."
! Warning: Never expose the image drum unit to light for more than 5 minutes. Never expose the image drum unit to direct sunlight. Always hold the image drum unit by the ends. Never touch the surface of the green drum inside the image drum unit.
! CAUTION: When you lift up the document stacker, you will see a label that reads: (CAUTION-HOT).
Image Drum Yield
The life of an image drum depends on a number of factors, including temperature and humidity, the type of paper you use, and the number of pages per job. The image drum cartridge should last about 20,000 pages for continuous printing, up to 14,000 pages at 3 pages per job, and about 9,000 pages at 1 page per job.
Replace the image drum when
- the faxes you receive are light or have vertical streaks in them and you are not out of toner
- your machine displays a CHANGE DRUM message
- your machine needs a new image drum unit.

Problem 18:
Your received faxes sometimes look distorted.
Problem 19:
You are constantly receiving unsolicited advertising on your machine.
Problem 20:
Your machine does not immediately switch to TEL mode when you make or receive a voice call.
Problem 21:
Your machine receives faxes, but doesn't print them.
Problem 22:
Your machine doesn't print the Message Confirmation Report or the Message Confirmation Report doesn't print the way you want it to.
Problem 1:
The display is blank.
Solution:
Check the power cord to make sure that it is firmly plugged in. Verify that the power switch is in the ON position. Check your wall outlet to make sure that it has power.
Problem 2:
Nothing happens when you press the control panel keys.
Solution:
Turn the machine off. Wait 10 seconds. Then turn it on again.
Problem 3:
The display tells you to replace paper even though there is paper in the paper tray.
Solution:
Make sure that the paper is firmly stacked in the tray. Check for a paper jam.
Problem 4:
Your documents jam.
Solution:
Check the document for wrinkles, tears or other damage.
Make sure there are no staples or paper clips.
Make sure that the paper is clean and dry.
Make sure the document is not wider than your machine can load.
Try making a copy of the document on a photocopier and faxing the copy.
Problem 5:
Your machine won't dial.
Solution:
Check the power cord and wall outlet.
Make sure that your telephone line (not your external telephone or handset) is connected to the LINE outlet on the back of your machine.
If you have an external telephone connected, lift the handset and check for a dial tone.
If you do not hear one, there may be a problem with your telephone line.
If you do hear a dial tone, your machine may be using the wrong dialing method (pulse or tone) for your area.
If you hear changing tones instead of dialing pulses and you know that your area uses pulse dialing, refer to Tone/Pulse (MF/DP) [Speed Access 45] in “Setting Basic Features, Dial and Incoming Call Parameter Settings.”
Problem 6:
The display shows a communication error.
Solution:
This alarm indicates any of a number of problems:
- You may be trying to communicate with an incompatible fax machine. Your machine can only communicate with ITU-T Group 3 fax machines.
- The remote machine may not be able to perform the function that you want, such as polling or confidential messages.
- The remote machine may also be out of paper or experiencing a paper jam.
- Bad telephone line conditions can also cause communication errors. Try sending the fax again and check to make sure you are dialing the correct telephone number.
-
You have to dial a prefix number to get an outside line, or if you are dialing internationally, you may need to enter a pause (using the Pause One Touch key) after the dial prefix or international dialing code to tell your machine to wait for a dial tone.
-
If you have frequent problems communicating with a particular remote fax machine, try programming the number into one of your One Touch keys and then changing the Communication Parameters for that One Touch key. See “Programming Speed Dial Numbers.”
- Your machine or the remote fax machine may need servicing. Try sending a fax to another location to check your machine.
Problem 7:
You sent a fax but the image the remote fax machine received was very poor.
Solution:
If your document had a lot of small type, complex illustrations, photos, or was very light or very dark, try changing your Transmit Resolution and Type of Original settings.
See "Basic Faxing Operations, Loading Documents."
Copy the document on your machine to see how it will transmit.
The problem may be caused by telephone line interference. Try sending the document again later.
Problem 8:
You keep getting reports you do not want.
Solution:
Check your user function settings and turn off the reports you do not want.
See "Reports, Message Confirmation Report Options."
Problem 9:
You sent a fax but it was received completely blank.
Solution:
Make sure that you have loaded your document face down.
Problem 10:
The image received on your machine was very poor
Solution:
Contact the person sending you the fax and ask them to change their Resolution and Type of Original settings. Ask the person to make a copy of the document on their fax machine to ensure that it is working properly. Then ask them to send the fax again. If you still have a problem, try making a copy of a document on your machine to make sure it is working properly.
Problem 11:
You tried dialing using One-Touch, 2-or 3-digit Speed Dial but nothing happened.
Solution:
Make sure that something is programmed into the Speed Dial key you are using. Check the fax number to make sure it was entered correctly.
See "Programming Speed Dial Numbers."
When you are dialing with an 2- or 3-digit speed dial code, be sure to press the Speed Dial/Search key before you enter the code.
Problem 12:
Your machine does not answer the phone or receive faxes.
Solution:
First check to see that the power cord is connected to the AC outlet. Also check the reception mode you are using. Your machine will not automatically receive faxes in manual answering mode [TEL].
See "Setting Basic Features, Setting the Answering Mode."
Problem 13:
Your received documents are light or have vertical streaks on them and you are not out of toner.
Solution:
Gently wipe the lens surface of your machine's LED array and then see if the machine works properly.
See "Maintenance, Replacing the Toner Cartridge."
If your machine still does not work properly, remove the image drum unit.
See “Maintenance, Replacing the Image Drum.”
Tap the toner cartridge, and gently shake it from side to side several times to redistribute toner. Be careful! Some toner may spill from the cartridge.
If this does not work, you may need to replace your image drum cartridge. For information on obtaining a replacement image drum cartridge, see “Options and Accessories.”
Problem 14:
You set your machine for delayed transmission but it did not send.
Solution:
Check the display to make sure that you have set your machine's clock to the correct time.
See "Setting Basic Features, Setting the Date and Time."
Problem 15:
Your machine will not poll a remote fax machine.
Solution:
Call the person at the remote fax machine and make sure that they have loaded documents and set their fax machine in polling transmission mode.
Problem 16:
Your machine is connected to a PBX and you can't dial out.
Solution:
You must enter your dial prefix before the telephone number for each number that you dial or program into your machine. Your machine must also be programmed for PBX operation before it will work.
See "Setting Basic Features, Connecting to a PBX."
Problem 17:
You want to answer an external telephone but your machine always answers first.
Solution:
If you are using an external telephone, change your machine's ring response user function setting.
See “Customizing Features and Operations, Changing Operation Functions, Department Code.”
Problem 18:
Your received faxes sometimes look distorted.
Solution:
If the document received is wider or longer than the paper you have loaded into your paper tray, your machine automatically reduces the length of the document to fit on your paper.
This type of problem could be communication related.
The document may have jammed during scanning.
If the document is unreadable, ask the sender to fax the document again.
Problem 19:
You are constantly receiving unsolicited advertising on your machine.
Solution:
Try using the closed network function.
See "Basic Faxing, Rejecting Unsolicited Fax Messages."
Problem 20:
Your machine does not immediately switch to TEL mode when you make or receive a voice call.
Solution:
Try pressing the Stop key. Your machine will return to standby mode so that you can converse. This condition may happen infrequently due to telephone line conditions, or the type of external telephone used. If this problem happens often, consult your service representative.
Problem 21:
Your machine receives faxes, but doesn't print them.
Solution:
Your machine may be out of paper.
Check the paper tray.
If empty, supply paper.
Your machine may be out of toner.
Check the display for a TONER LOW message.
If displayed, replace the toner cartridge.
Your machine may need a new drum.
Check the display for a REPLACE IMAGE DRUM message.
If displayed, replace the image drum.
Your machine may be set to Answering Mode: Memory Reception Mode.
Change the Answering Mode to Auto Receive Mode [FAX].
See “Setting Basic Features, Setting the Answering Mode.”
Problem 22:
Your machine doesn't print the Message Confirmation Report or the Message Confirmation Report doesn't print the way you want it to.
Solution:
There are several options for the Message Confirmation Report. Make sure that these options are set the way you want them to be.
See "Reports, Message Confirmation Report."

Toner Yield
The number of pages you can print with one toner cartridge depends on the type of documents you usually receive or copy.
A toner cartridge will print about 5,000 pages/letter size of standard business communications at a typical print coverage of 4% (equivalent of CCITT No. 1 test chart).
The first toner cartridge installed in a new image drum unit will have a decreased yield because the image drum unit has to be filled.
Drum Yield
The life of an image drum depends on a number of factors, including temperature and humidity, the type of paper you use, and the number of pages per job.
The image drum cartridge should last approximately
• 20,000 pages for continuous printing
• 14,000 pages at 3 pages per job
• 9,000 pages at 1 page per job
