FACSIMILE FX100
Thank you for choosing Samsung! Your new fax machine represents the very latest in fax
machine technology. The FX100 is a full-featured, high-performance machine built to strict
quality standards set by Samsung-the highest in the industry. We’re proud to offer you a
product that will provide convenient, dependable service for years to come.
Always be careful when using the machine. To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock,
and other injuries, keep these safety considerations in mind when installing, using, and
maintaining your machine:
Stability: Place the machine on a secure, stable surface. The machine can cause serious
damage if it falls.
Power Supply: Provide the correct power to the machine, as listed on its back. If you
are not sure of the type of power that is supplied to your home or office, call your
electric company.
Grounding: It must be plugged into a grounded outlet for your safety. If you can’t
insert the plug into your wall outlet easily, the outlet should be inspected by a qualified
electrician.
Overload: Don’t plug too many electrical devices into a wall outlet or extension cord.
An overloaded outlet is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Cleaning: Before cleaning the machine, unplug it from both the power outlet and the
telephone jack. Clean exposed parts with a soft cloth slightly dampened with water.
Gas Leaks: Never use a telephone close to a gas leak. If you think gas is leaking, call the
gas company immediately, but use a telephone far away from the leak area. A small
electrical spark in the telephone could cause a fire.

INSTALLATION AND S ETUP
In order to provide compatibility with most telephone systems, your FX100 can be set to
either Pulse Dialing (same as rotary), or Tone Dialing (Touch-Tone).
In some cases, you may not be sure which kind of dialing service is provided on your line, since
a rotary phone generally works, even though the line has Touch-Tone service.
To determine the type of service you have, refer to pages 4.12 (User Options), and 4.13
(Setting Fax Options), and set the Dial Type to “MF” (Tone). Then:
2 If the dial tone disappears, you have properly set your machine’s dial type option, and
hang up the phone.
If the dial tone is still present, hang up the Handset and proceed to step 3, below.
3 If the dial tone did not disappear in step 2, set the Dial Type to “DP” (Pulse).
4 See page 4.10, Using Tone, for information on temporarily setting your machine to tone dial, in
order to access banking and other interactive services requiring Touch-Tones.
In this chapter, you will learn how to send and receive fax documents, how to use the four
fax reception modes, and voice request features.
Sending a Fax
Preparing a Document
Here are some things to do to improve the quality of your faxed documents:
Send documents printed using a typewriter, felt tip pen, black ink, or laserwriter. The
paper should be white or very light and of normal weight - not cardboard. Blue lines on
a ruled pad don’t fax well.
up to a maximum
Maximum of 59”
DO NOT attempt to feed the following document types into the unit, as they may jam.
Instead, make a photocopy and send the copy
Wrinkled or creased Curled or rolled paper Torn paper
paper or fax paper
Remove clips, staples, and similar objects from documents before feeding them into
the machine.
Allow ink or paste dry completely before you send a document.
CHAPTER THREE : THE FAX MACHINE 3.1
T HE F AX M A C H I N E

Dialing a Number
3
Press START/COPY when
you hear the fax tone
(high-pitched tone).
Canceling Transmission
1
Press STOP at any time to
cancel transmission.
Receiving a Fax
Reception Modes
Your machine has four reception modes:
In TEL mode, automatic fax reception is turned off. You can receive a fax only by
manually pressing START/COPY.
In FAX mode, the machine answers an incoming call and immediately goes into receive
mode.
In TAD mode, the caller can leave a message on your answering machine. If a fax tone
is detected, your fax machine begins reception automatically, overriding the answering
machine’s announcement.
This mode is available only when you have connected an answering machine to the
EXT. LINE jack on the rear of the machine.
In AUTO mode, the machine answers incoming faxes automatically. If no fax signal is
detected, the machine gives a secondary ringing tone to advise you of an incoming call.
When the machine is in Standby mode, the LCD shows the current reception mode.
If you rarely use the fax line for voice conversation, set the fax machine to receive faxes
automatically by selecting either FAX or AUTO mode.
2
When the telephone rings,
pick up the Handset and
answer it.
3
If you hear a fax tone, or if
the person on the other
end asks you to, press
START/COPY.
4
Hang up the Handset.
TAD appears in the LCD If you have set your machine to the TAD
and the RECEIVE indicater 11-15 10:30 TAD mode, and the answering machine is
flashes, switched off, or is not connected to your
fax machine, the fax machine will
automatically go into receive mode after
6 rings.
2
Hang up the extension
telephone.
Canceling Reception
1
Press STOP at any time to
cancel reception.
If you’re sending or receiving a document and need to speak to the other person during
the same phone call, use Voice Request to alert the person at the remote end.
You can also respond to a Voice Request made by the person on the remote end.
2
When finished, hang up the
Handset.
Using Polling
Polling is when one fax machine requests another machine to send a document. This is
useful when the person with the original document is not in the office. The person who
wants to receive the document calls the machine holding the original and requests that the
document be sent. In other words, it “polls” the machine holding the original.
1
Lift the Handset or press
OHD.
In this chapter, you will learn how to use the built-in help features, how to use the
automatic dialing and special phone features, how to set options, and how to print
reports.
1
Press HELP while in
Standby mode.
2
Press STOP at any time to
exit the function menu.
Instead of waiting for the function menu to cycle through each choice, you can manually
scroll through to view your choices quickly.
2
When the function you
want appears in the LCD,
press ENTER.
3
Press STOP at any time to
exit the function menu.
There are two ways in storing numbers for automatic dialing: One-Touch Dialing and
Speed Dialing. One-Touch Dialing lets you touch any one of five One-Touch buttons
located on the left of the machine’s Control Panel to dial your number automatically.
Speed Dialing allows you to enter two digits to dial a number. To use this feature, follow
these instructions:
TONE
2
Enter a 2-digit Speed Dial
number (01 through 30)
to which you want to
assign the telephone or fax
number.
3
If you are making a phone
call, pick up the Handset
when the other person
answers.
If you don’t remember the 2-digit speed number, you can search for numbers in memory.
1
Press SPEED DIAL.
3
When the number you
want appears, press ENTER
to dial the number.
When using special services, such as alternate long-distance or bank-by-phone, you must
enter the telephone number of the service and wait for the computer to answer before
continuing. Enter the phone number of the special service first. Then, when the computer
answers, enter the rest of the information, such as a long-distance number. We call this
procedure Chain Dialing. You can combine manual dialing using Number Keypad, Speed
Dialing and/or One-Touch Dialing for Chain Dialing.
3
When the service answers,
enter the additional
numbers using number
keypad, or One-Touch
button, or 2-digit Speed
Dial number.
4
When you hear the high-
pitched tone, press
START/COPY to send the
document.
Using REDIAL/PAUSE
The REDIAL/PAUSE button has two functions. It can be used to redial the number you
last called or it can be used to insert a pause in a number when you’re setting up a One-
Touch or Speed dial number.
With some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (“9”, for example) and listen
for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. In such cases, you must
insert a pause in the number.
Using TONE
You may often need to use tone signals to perform special operations by phone. Bank-by-
phone and voice mail are two examples of systems that require tone signals.
If you have pulse service, you can still send tone signals by following steps:
1
Dial the number using
pulse dialing.
Using FLASH
Some special phone services require a switch-hook signal for proper operation. For
example, if you have Call Waiting*, you can put a call on hold and take a second call on
the same line by pressing the switch-hook button. Pressing FLASH performs the
equivalent to a switch-hook operation.
2
Press FLASH again to talk
to the first caller again.
When your line is an extension of PABX, you can transfer the call by pressing FLASH
without hanging up the Handset and dialing the number of that person.
* Call Waiting
Call Waiting service offered by most U.S. and Canadian telephone companies allows you
to hear an alert tone, or beep, when a third party dials your number and you are already
in a conversation with another party. If you happen to be conduction a regular voice
conversation, and hear the alert tone in the telephone receiver or on the speaker, depress
FLASH. This will place the current call on HOLD and allow you to converse with the new
party. You may switch between two callers any number of times by flashing the line, or
momentarily depressing the switchhook.
If the alert tone occurs while sending or receiving a fax, it may interrupt or terminate the
fax call in progress. You can temporarily block the alert tone on the telephone line by
dialing “*70” before dialing the area code and/or number when placing a call. This will
ensure that your fax call will not be interrupted.
User Options
Your fax machine has various user-selectable features. These options are preset at the
factory, but you may need to change them. To find out how the options are currently set,
print the System Data List. For more information on printing a report, see page 4 .14.

Enter a number from 1 through 7 on the Number Keypad, then press ENTER.
Remote Receive Code - The Remote Receive Code allows you to initiate a fax receive
from an extension phone plugged into the EXT. LINE jack. If you pick up the extension
and hear a fax tone, you can enter the Remote Receive Code and the fax will start
receiving. The password is preset to " * 9 * " at factory. The first and the last % ‘s are
fixed, but you can change the middle character from 0 to 9.
Enter the number you want to use, then press ENTER.
Auto Print - Your fax machine keeps records of communications. You can get a
