RECEIVING A FAX AUTOMATICALLY
Overview
When the reception mode is set to "Auto Reception", the machine will receive and print faxes automatically.
- When fax reception is in progress, it is possible to reserve a transmission by performing the transmission in memory transmission mode.
- To print received faxes, make sure that the required paper is loaded into the machine's paper trays. It is not necessary to load 8-1/2" x 11" (A4) paper and 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" (B5) paper in both the vertical (
) and horizontal (
) orientations. Differences in orientation are automatically adjusted when faxes are received.
When a fax smaller than 8-1/2" x 11" (A4) size is received, the size of the paper used for printing will vary depending on the orientation (vertical or horizontal) in which the sender placed the original. - If a print job such as the copy or printer function has already been executed when printing the received data, the first reserved job is printed before the received data.
- Received faxes will not be printed when the machine cannot print due to an error condition such as out of paper, out of toner, or a paper misfeed. The faxes will be printed automatically when the error condition is cleared. (If the paper has run out, add paper and tap
on the touch panel.) - You can check current fax reception mode in the system area at the top of the screen.

Select [System Settings] in "Setting mode" → [Fax Data Receive/Forward] → [Fax Settings] → [Receive Settings].
