How To Have Printer Default To Copy Mode Rather Than Fax When Turned On.

When the printer is tunred on it defaults to fax mode, so we have to press the copy button to go into copy mode.  We never use the fax feature, and would like it to default to copy mode.

I don't think you can make it "default to copy", but you can make it stay in the last mode you used (so if you use copy, it will stay there).  To do this, go into the menu and select the "mode timer" and change it from the default of 2 minutes to "Off".  Then it will stay in whatever mode was last used.

Menu 1 - 1  and then change the timer to OFF and it will maintain the last choice made (so it is copy will remain copy)
