SENDING FAXES

Overview

The methods that can be used to send a fax from the machine are described below. Select the method that best suits your needs.

Faxing multiple numbers of original pages

Use the automatic document feeder.
The originals will be scanned into memory and then transmitted (memory transmission).
When multiple original sheets are placed in line idle state, they will be sent in sequence from the scanned page in parallel with the scanning process (Quick On Line Sending).

Storing a fax job
If transmission cannot begin immediately because the line is in use, all pages will be scanned and stored in memory. If you want to attempt to send a fax while another job is in progress, you can store the fax job. To check the stored fax job, display the job status screen.
  • If memory becomes full while the first original page is being scanned, transmission will stop. If memory becomes full while the originals are being scanned after the first page has been scanned, original pages that have already been scanned will be stored.
  • When the transmission is finished, the scanned original pages are cleared from memory. However, when the document filing function is used, the transmitted fax is stored.
  • If Job Build is enabled, you can select the automatic document feeder or the document glass to scan the original. This sending method may not be available depending on the function.
When the line is busy or a communication error occurs, faxes are automatically resent by factory default. Fax jobs are automatically stored (memory transmission) in the following situations.
  • The line of the machine is busy because another fax job is in progress or the machine is in the busy state.
  • There is a stored fax job.
  • One of the following functions is being used for transmission
    • Broadcast transmission, F-code transmission, Timer transmission, Dual Page Scan, Book Divide, 2in1, Card Shot, Job Build, Original Count
  • The document glass is being used (except when the speaker is being used to dial)
To disable the Quick On Line Sending setting:
In "Setting mode (administrator)", select [System Settings] → [Image Send Settings] → [Fax Settings] → [Send Settings] → [Quick On Line Sending].
If you disable this setting, memory transmission will not begin until all pages have been scanned.

FAXING THICK ORIGINALS OR PAGES OF A BOOK
Place an original on the document glass.

  • Quick On Line Sending is not available when a fax is being sent from the document glass.
  • When scanning a multi-page original, scan pages one by one.

SENDING A FAX AHEAD OF STORED FAX JOBS
Send the fax in direct transmission mode. The original is transmitted directly to the receiving fax machine without being scanned into memory.
When direct transmission mode is used, transmission will begin as soon as the transmission in progress is completed (ahead of any stored fax jobs).
Tap the [Send Directly] key on the action panel to send a fax.

When transmission in direct transmission mode ends, the mode automatically changes back to memory transmission mode.
In direct transmission mode,you cannot use the [Preview] key.
