ECM must be enabled on both the machine and the other fax device because error checks are performed on both the sending and receiving devices.

<Fax Settings> <TX Function Settings> <ECM TX> <On> Set Pause Time
For example, when you make calls by dialing "0 - (pause) - (telephone number)", 0 is dialed first and then a few seconds later, the telephone number. When sending faxes overseas, you need to specify destinations by dialing "(international access code) - (country code) - (area code) - (fax number)" but consecutive numbers that are input without pauses may not be recognized correctly. In this case, try adding a pause after the international access code or the fax number. If the code or the number is still not recognized correctly, change the duration of the pause. For instructions on how to enter a pause, see step 3 on Sending Faxes.
