Plain Paper Follow these guidelines when selecting paper: ❏ The laser printing process uses high temperatures to fuse toner to the paper. Use paper that will not melt, vaporize, discolour, or emit dangerous fumes at temperatures near 170ºC. For example, do not use vellum paper in a laser printer.
❏ To prevent the transparency from curling, remove the transparency as it comes out of the FAX-L360 and set it on a flat surface to cool. When feeding transparencies, be sure to use face-up delivery.
The Paper Path Understanding how paper feeds through the FAX-L360 will help you to determine how to load paper and handle paper jams. The page travels first to the FX-3 toner cartridge. Here a laser beam “draws” the print image on the drum, then the drum applies toner to the page. The page then travels to the fixing assembly where the toner is fused to the page.
Page 93
When you are printing, follow these guidelines: ❏ Always set the paper delivery selector before starting to print. ❏ Do not switch the paper delivery selector until the printout comes out of the delivery slot completely. Otherwise, a paper jam may occur. ❏...
Selecting Paper Delivery Received faxes, copies, and prints can be delivered through the face-up or face-down delivery slots. Choose paper delivery according to the job the FAX-L360 is performing and the type of print media you are using. FACE-DOWN DELIVERY...
Face-Down Delivery Face-down delivery is used for most jobs and when using plain paper only (64-90 g/m²). Printed pages are stacked in the order printed in the face-down delivery slot. This slot holds up to approximately 50 sheets of plain paper (75 g/m²).
Face-Up Delivery Face-up delivery is mainly used when printing on media other than plain paper, such as transparencies, labels, and envelopes. Be sure to use face-up delivery when feeding print media other than standard plain paper. Note Move the paper delivery selector forward to the mark.
Page 97
You can also use face-up delivery when printing or receiving a large number of pages. In this case, remove the extension tray and place the unit on the edge of a table. This will allow the pages to fall away from the unit and avoid blocking the Note face-up delivery slot.
When receiving faxes the default setting is the paper cassette, with same size paper remaining in both of the paper cassette and the multi-purpose tray. If paper runs out in paper cassette, FAX-L360 changes the setting to the multi- Note purpose tray automatically.
Loading Envelopes in the Multi-Purpose Tray Do not use the multi-purpose tray to load envelopes when temperature or humidity levels are high. The glue on the flap may become sticky and stick to the envelope, or cause a paper jam. Caution Be sure to use face-up delivery when printing on envelopes.

Preparing to Send a Fax Before you can send a fax, you need to load the document into the FAX-L360. For instructions and information about the types of documents you can fax with the FAX-L360, see below. Document Requirements The documents you load into the FAX-L360 must meet these requirements: When the document feed lever is set to Automatic Document Feed: •...
Page 136
❏ Make sure any glue, ink, or correction fluid on the paper is completely dry before loading the document into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). ❏ If you have a document that will not feed into the FAX-L360 properly, make a photocopy of the document, then load the copy instead.
Scanning Area The margins of 3.0 mm on both sides of the sheet, and 4.0 mm on the top and bottom are outside the FAX-L360’s scanning area. Make sure your document’s text and graphics do not extend into these margins.
Selecting Automatic/Manual Document Feed With the FAX-L360, you can select whether you want to scan documents automatically or manually. Automatic document feed is used when scanning multipage documents on normal paper. Use manual document feed when scanning single-page documents such as photos, business cards, or documents on other special types of paper.
Loading Documents for Automatic Feed 1. Make sure the document feed lever is set to automatic document feed. Be sure to pull the feed lever towards you before sliding it to the left. Note 2. If the document has multiple pages, tap it on a flat surface to even the edges. Chapter 6 Sending Faxes...
Page 140
3. Adjust the document guides to the width of the document. 4. Gently insert the document face down (top of the document first) into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until it stops. Sending Faxes Chapter 6...
Page 141
The document is now ready for scanning. The FAX-L360 automatically feeds the pages one by one from the bottom of the stack. Wait until all pages of your document have been scanned completely before starting a new job. Note Trouble With Multipage Documents If you have trouble feeding a multipage document, do the following: 1.
Page 142
2. Gently insert the stack into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until it stops. ❏ If you have further trouble with page jams while feeding, see “Jams in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)?” on page 13-5. Note ❏ You cannot feed a multipage document of thick media, such as postcards or business cards.
Loading Documents for Manual Feed 1. Make sure the document feed lever is set to manual document feed. 2. Adjust the document guides to the width of the document. Chapter 6 Sending Faxes 6-11...

3. Gently insert the document face down (top of the document first) into the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) until it stops. The document is now ready for scanning. ❏ Wait until your document has been scanned completely before starting a new job.
Canon’s Ultra High Quality (UHQ™) imaging technology enables you to send faxes with a print quality that is very close to that of the original document. The FAX-L360 also lets you adjust the resolution it uses in sending faxes to best suit your particular document.
Contrast is the difference in brightness between the lightest and darkest parts of a printed document. You can adjust the contrast the FAX-L360 uses when scanning documents to be sent. STANDARD is the default setting and is adequate for most documents.
Memory sending allows you to send a document easily and quickly. This method of sending scans the document into memory, and as the first page of a multipage document is being scanned, the FAX-L360 already begins calling the other party and transmitting the information even as the remaining pages are being scanned.
Page 148
Since the FAX-L360 is multitasking, you can even scan a document into the memory while sending a document, receiving a document, or printing a report. 6-16 Sending Faxes Chapter 6...
Dialling Methods There are several ways of dialling the number of the party you want to send to: ❏ Regular Dialling Use the numeric buttons to dial the recipient’s fax number. ❏ One-Touch Speed Dialling Press the One-Touch Speed Dialling button (1 to 32) under which you have registered the number you want to send to.
Sending Documents This section describes the different ways to send faxes with the FAX-L360. Manual Sending Via the Handset You can send faxes manually. This allows you to talk to the other party via the handset before sending the fax, which can be useful if the other party uses a single line for both voice and fax transmissions.
Page 151
3. If a person answers, you can converse normally. When you hear the other party answer, pick up the handset so you can talk if you have not already done so. Then go to step 4. -or- If you hear a high pitched signal, instead of the other party’s voice, they are ready to receive your document.
Memory Sending Memory sending is a quick and easy way to send a fax. The FAX-L360 scans the document into its memory as it dials the fax number. If the line is free, the FAX-L360 begins sending the fax as it scans the rest of the document.
Page 153
❏ When the FAX-L360 finishes sending the fax, the display shows the TRANSMITTING OK message. If an error occurs during sending, the FAX-L360 will print out an error report. If this happens, try sending the fax again. See “Faxing Problems” on page 13-24 for details about errors.
Adding Pages to the Document in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) The FAX-L360 Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) can hold up to 30 A4-, 30 letter-, or 20 legal-size pages at a time when the document feed lever is set to automatic document feed.
2. To cancel sending, press ✱. ❏ If you change your mind and want the unit to continue sending, press the # button. The FAX-L360 will continue sending normally. After you cancel a fax, you may need to open the operation panel to remove the document from the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF).
Removing the Document From the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) 1. Open the operation panel by gently pulling it toward you. 2. Remove the document by pulling it out from the top or bottom. ❏ Do not pull the document without opening the operation panel, otherwise the document will tear.
Page 157
3. When you are finished, close the operation panel by pressing it down from the centre as shown. Be sure to close the operation panel until it locks into place. Otherwise the unit will not function properly. Note Chapter 6 Sending Faxes 6-25...
You can also control how many times the FAX-L360 will redial the number and how long it will wait between dialling attempts. See “Setting Up Automatic Redialling”...
❏ If you used One-Touch or Coded Speed Dialling to dial the number, the name registered under that button or code will also be displayed. If the receiving fax machine does not answer on the last attempt, the FAX-L360 displays BUSY/NO SIGNAL (if the unit is set not to print a report).

3. When you finish entering numbers, press Start/Copy to begin sending, or wait a few seconds for the FAX-L360 to begin sending automatically. ❏ The FAX-L360 then scans the document into memory, and begins sending it to the destinations in numerical order, starting with the one-touch speed dial numbers, then the coded speed dial numbers, and finally the number dialled with the numeric buttons or Redial/Pause button.
Delayed Sending Your FAX-L360 allows you to scan a document into its memory and send it automatically at a preset time. By using this feature, you can take advantage of lower long distance rates at night, for example. Be sure to adjust the document feed lever before loading your document. See page 6-6 for more details.
Page 167
See page 6-24 to remove your document from Note the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF). ❏ You can only register one preset sending operation at a time. When the set time comes, the FAX-L360 dials and sends the document. Chapter 6 Sending Faxes 6-35...
Sending Other Documents While the FAX-L360 is Set for Delayed Sending The FAX-L360 is a multitasking unit, so you can send, receive, print, and copy other documents even when you have set the FAX-L360 for delayed sending. To print, copy, or send other documents after setting the FAX-L360 for delayed sending, simply follow the procedures described in this user’s guide.
