Scan Preview

This option lets you view the first page of the image before it is included in the fax. When the first page is scanned, the scanning is paused and a preview image appears.

Note: This option appears only when a working printer hard disk is installed.

This option lets you remove smudges or any mark around the edges of a document. You can remove an equal area around all four sides of the paper, or you can pick a particular edge. Edge Erase also removes whatever is within the area selected, leaving nothing on that portion of the scan.

Transmission Log

This option lets you print the transmission log or transmission error log.

Adjust ADF Skew

This option lets you straighten scanned images that are slightly skewed when received from the ADF tray.
